I have to agree with Casual here- make it explicit what is allowed and what isn't. With the definition from speeddemosarchive, ctap scripts and rocket jump scripts (jump+crouch+shoot) are definitely not allowed... though I'm pretty sure only like 5 people even use them. There is literally 0 need for more drama-- not sure why you guys are still so salty about Casual cheating. Accept it and move on and treat him as another member of the community.

oh wait this community has been increasingly garbage over the months i am not sure how to feel about this

It wasn't my intention to restart this discussion again, I shouldn't have brought up the TAS thing at all. Even mentioning it makes people go emotional apparently. My point still stands, just use common sense to determine if your scripts are cheating and ask Obsidian if you really can't figure it out yourself.

There will be 5 trickjump judges

Can I ask who the trickjumping judges are? Or is that a secret?  ;D

Ok, it seems like I need to clarify a couple things concerning the rules.

Outside of simple things like rocket jump or ctap scripts, no plugins/scripts or similar things of any type are allowed.  This includes:

  - Freeze glitching
  - Bounce alert or similar plugins
  - Abusing wait command

I'm sure there are more things like these out there, but I'm going to hope that I can trust everyone's judgement on what is/isn't fair.  I'd rather ban ctap macros as well but as of right now I'm not sure if there is a way to detect them.  A general rule of thumb is that if it's something that you don't see in ROTW, don't do it.

Concerning the trickjump judges... it's secret.  For now.  8)

All classes are allowed in the co-op contest.  There is the solo contest, which has 2 different sections (demo and soldier) and the co-op, which is basically do anything you want, within reason obviously.

Are there any weapon restrictions for trick jumping?

No.  Do anything you want as long as it's reasonable (for example, don't modify weapon stats or use plugins to give a medic a rocket launcher)

I added these in addition to adding NO BHOP to the trickjump rules

Also fixed stuff with the email, so if you for some reason already sent in a trickjump, you should resend it.
