The selected admin should be able to use config items KICK, BAN, UNBAN_IP, SUSPEND, UNSUSPEND, SILENCE, VOICE, UNSILENCE, MAX_CLIENTS, chat commands /op and /admin, and should be able to see the full output of /players (Client number, Player names, visible AND hidden Global IDs, IPs and network version, in it's two different forms, ie. number and string) --epsy 14:58, 21 December 2008 (PST)
Every player should be able to use /lock, /unlock, /invite, /uninvite and /shuffle in their full functionality. --epsy 14:58, 21 December 2008 (PST)
AUTHORITY_WHITELIST should remain empty and only authorities proven to be malicious should be put in AUTHORITY_BLACKLIST --epsy 14:58, 21 December 2008 (PST)
The administrator, if playing, should not see /team messages not intended for their team. Pink Tomatoes 15:13, 21 December 2008 (PST)

Teams are formed "on the spot" i.e. you join the team you wish, players will try to avoid too uneven teams --K-Yo 09:02, 9 December 2008 (PST)
When doing this, everyone should go to 'spectator' and the you work from there. When your given your team, you select the team you are chosen to be on, and this will create a lot less hassle. --Lightning December 16, 2008; 4:57 Central Time.
- "this" ? "When your given your team" ? "the team you are chosen to be on" ? 1/ Fix your English (your you're..) 2/ You are insinuating the teams to be chosen by captains, which contradicts with the first rule here --epsy 14:35, 21 December 2008 (PST)

If there is a conflict and no rule about it, the admin of the match has the last word, and a talk on forums about the issue (and creating a rule about it) is strongly advised --K-Yo 09:02, 9 December 2008 (PST)
If a player joins without being on the list, he can take any available spot, but if a registered player comes before the end of the first match they will switch after the end of the first match. If a registered player comes after the first match is over, he cannot take someone else's spot by force (or admin help) --K-Yo 09:02, 9 December 2008 (PST)
- Proposed amendment: A player that hasn't signed up cannot join at all once the first match started. --epsy 14:58, 21 December 2008 (PST)
