Update: After the publication of this article, the tournament organization launched a new update of the rules. This article has been edited to show the latest tournament rules. The tournament organization also revealed that the name of the player who will replace Nuno Antunes as captain will only be revealed in the tournament itself.
Last night the Kwata Kwata tournament organization released a new CoD tournament rules document: MW2 "Kwata Kwata 2". In this update the tournament organization added rules regarding coatching and the use of headphones / earphones / headphones to play. In this new update the organization of the tournament also revealed that maps and modes will be played in each round of the tournament.
However, the organization kept the name of Nuno antunes aka KnightVip on the captains list despite the fact that he announced this week that he will not participate in the tournament. Since KnightVip's team started the last Kwata Kwata tournament, there has been some anxiety on the part of several players about who will replace him as captain in the tournament. The new captain was expected to be announced in this update to the rules, and despite everything indicating that KnightVip will not be present at the tournament, the absence of the appointment of a new captain in this update reinforces the suspicions of some players that KnightVip will indeed participate .
Here are the updated tournament rules and the new rules are highlighted in blue:

Important Considerations
After the first minute of play any connectivity issues that are not caused by third parties, Will not force the game to restart. Eg the fall of a table.
In case of a bug in the game, it should follow normally. ex: almost at the end of the capture of a HQ this restarts.
In case any player experiences any technical difficulties before the game, a hold will be made, however the other games will continue. If one of the other teams finishes the game the team with technical difficulties will be forced to play without the said player. If the game mode is TDM (Team DeathMatch) the team automatically loses the map.
Any game will only be stopped if an admin does it formally. Otherwise this will follow normally.
