3. Disconnects:

  • In the event of a player disconnecting (internet or other reason), the match will continue unless someone uses a **Time Out token**. We encourage the disconnected player to make attempts to rejoin the match. If the attempts are failing or it is taking longer than expected to rejoin the match, reach out to your Match Moderator on Discord.

Note: If for some reason the Match Moderator pauses the match due to player disconnects (not enacted by the Time Out token) or other reason, it will require administrator authorization to resume or restart the match.
