MLG has instituted new rules concerning team and player names, effective immediately. These rules apply to both the 2007 Pro Circuit and all Online Tournament activities. Please read through and familiarize yourself with the rules below, as there will be no exceptions to them.
Team Names
1. No web addresses
2. No use of the word "Team"
3. No use of the words "Gamer" or "Gaming"
4. No Derogatory or Suggestive Words/Meanings
5. No corporations, company, sponsor, or product names
Player Names
1. No web addresses
2. No team name abbreviations
3. No Derogatory or Suggestive Words/Meanings
4. No corporations, company, sponsor, or product names
Important Notes
-Players are still encouraged to reach out to potential sponsors. Although these sponsors can't be represented through the team's name, players may wear sponsor t-shirts and/or other apparel except when appearing on the main stage, in the MLG Pro Players Lounge, or for media appearances/interviews.
-If/when MLG provides player uniforms, sponsors may have a patch on the uniform sleeve. Please note that players may be required to wear official MLG apparel if/when appearing for MLG content and programming (e.g., MLG TV show) or within MLG's stage sets (e.g., main stage).
-Teams from the same Clan can use the Clan abbreviation in their team name. However, these teams must be differentiated by more than a single letter or number.
