    • Steps to adding friends on Xbox:
      • Open the Guide panel. Press the Xbox logo in the middle of your Xbox One controller to do so. You should see a panel pop out from the left side of the screen.
      • The Guide panel will open regardless of the current screen you’re on (e.g., while you’re in a match).
      • If you aren’t signed into your Microsoft Account, you’ll see a prompt to sign in at the top of the Guide panel. Select this prompt and press A, then sign in with your Microsoft Account email address and password before proceeding.
      • Scroll left to the “People” tab. This tab resembles a two-person silhouette at the top of the Guide panel. You can press the LB button to scroll over to it, or you can press the left side of the D-pad.
      • Scroll down and select Find someone. Move the selection down to the “Find Someone” option near the bottom of the Guide panel, then press A to select it. This will open a text field with an on-screen keyboard.
      • Enter the friend’s name. Use the on-screen keyboard to type in the friend’s name (making sure to spell it exactly as it appears), then press the ≡ button to the right of the Guide button. This will bring up the friend’s profile page if you spelled their name correctly.
      • Select “Add friend”. It’s near the bottom of the profile page. A pop-up panel will appear.
      • If you’re adding a friend via the Suggested friends menu, you’ll also see the Add friend option at the top of the Guide panel.
      • Scroll down and select Submit. This option is at the bottom of the pop-up panel. Doing so adds the selected person to your Xbox One’s list of friends.
      • If you want to add the friend to your list of favorites, select the Favorites checkbox before you select Submit.
    • Steps to adding friends on PS4:
      • Using the PS4 controller, select “Friends.”
      • Select “Search” on the left side of the screen.
      • Look for the person you want to add by entering their PlayStation ID if you know it, or you can search using their real name. You’ll see a list of names appear on the screen.
      • To see more about a person, select their name to see details about their profile and activity. Then select the friend request button at the top left of their profile page. Or, if you prefer, you can immediately send a friend request by selecting the smiley face/plus sign button to the right of the person you want to add.
      • On the Send Friend Request screen, enter a personal message so they know who you are, and then select “Send.”
      • You may also receive friend requests. To check, select “Friend Requests” at the bottom right of the Friends page. Select “Accept” to add that friend to your Friends List.

        • Using exploits, cheats, undocumented features, design errors or bugs that interupt the natural flow of the online gaming experience
        • Any attempt to glitch the game in order to gain an advantage is prohibited. This includes, but is not limited to the following situations:
        • Any offsides glitch.
        • Intentionally slowing down a defense at the line of scrimmage to cause an offsides penalty.

        • Keeping the game on “pause” for longer than 60 seconds (or longer if communicated to your opponent)
        • Every Competitor must maintain an appropriate level of respect, in our league’s sole judgment, toward the other competitors.  Threatening behavior towards the competitors will not be tolerated. Our league office reserves the right to disqualify any competitor from league play at any time, and for any reason.
  • EA Online Server Troubleshooting
    • When the EA servers are going down during a match, and all the participants of the tournament are getting kicked out of the match, the specific match of that round will be played again.
    • When the connection is lost, the match will be resumed at the remaining time and the current score.
    • Every player is responsible for his own connection and has to have a good internet connection to avoid possible ‘lag’.
    • Complaining about losing a game incorrectly after a match can not be taken into account in the final outcome of a match. If there are reasons to suspect that your opponent is not playing by the rules or serious lag occurs for a long time, report this to the admin before your opponent has taken advantage of the problem. (The beginning of the game.)
      • Report the issue via email (or by disputing a score on your Hub Zone account), and inform our league administrators of the issues that occurred when attempting to begin your scheduled match (i.e. lagging issues).  Our staff can reach out to your opponent for troubleshooting, and the match will be reset once any/all problems pertaining to your opponent’s connection are resolved
