For context, the game in question is Team Fortress 2 but outside of the top rule, the others could theoretically apply to any game.

Presenting evidence of a player cheating or not cheating in any form will be considered an attempt to sway the vote and will result in a permaban from the league.

...What? In what world do you not only ban people by public vote without evidence, but actively disallow evidence being shared?

[–] Maven@lemmy.zip 30 points 4 days ago

I think that's the joke. Similarly, points are only awarded based on a prisoners dilemma and slurs are allowed but only on a pick ban basis

How did you read the first point without finding it wild?!?

[–] drkt@scribe.disroot.org 10 points 4 days ago

It's a joke about how VALVEe runs their franchise Team Fortress 2

You might need to take some media literacy classes

[–] papalonian@lemmy.world 3 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Why do you feel the need to insult someone else's intelligence for not understanding a reference to a 20 year old videogame's bad tourney rules? Do you find your own lacking?

[–] tfw_no_toiletpaper@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Man, just let me insult as I please. I know virtually nothing about tf2 and didn't get the "reference" but this post is clearly not meant seriously. If this is not immediately obvious to someone... why?

[–] papalonian@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

why?

Maybe English is a second language and the sarcasm was lost, maybe they're autistic and don't understand what the issue is; maybe they do need media literacy classes, is taking the chance on the first two possibilities worth the joke though? 🤷🏾‍♂️ I feel like there had to have been at least one time where you didn't understand something, even though you're so smart as to understand the topic of this post while others don't.
