How to set referee assignment rules

Referee rules guide 裁判分配, which puts referees and teams on all your games in one go (see how to assign referees automatically). They live in the 裁判分配规则 tab of your event’s settings. Saving a rule changes no game: it applies the next time you assign referees automatically. Referees you put on a game yourself don’t have to follow it.

Without any rule, automatic assignment gives each game one referee from your list and one refereeing team, and, unless a rule allows it, never gives anyone it picks two games that start at the same time. Referees and teams you put on a game yourself count too: they aren’t given another game at that time, and their games count toward the rules below. Teams are taken from the game’s division, or from a division that shares its phase of the blueprint and plays with the same ball type. There’s no setting for how many referees a game needs: to add more, put them on the game yourself (see how to put a referee or staff member on a game). Teams referee only when you assign team refs or put a team on a game; to choose which teams, add an 允许执裁的队伍 rule.

Before you start

• You need to manage the event, its schedule or its referees.
• If referees are locked, the rules are locked too. See how to lock parts of your event.

Steps

The steps add an 允许执裁的队伍 rule, so that only the teams you choose referee. Every rule type is added the same way.

1. In your event’s planner, click 设置 at the bottom of the sidebar.

   

2. Open the 裁判分配规则 tab.

   

3. Under 硬性规则, click 添加规则. For a soft preference instead, use 添加偏好 under 软偏好.

   

4. Choose 允许执裁的队伍. The new rule opens.

   

5. Under 队伍, pick the teams that may referee. The summary at the top of the rule says what it does.

   

6. Click 保存所有设置更改.

Hard rules and soft preferences

• 硬性规则 must be met. Assignment skips anyone who would break one, and a game nobody can take is left without that referee.
• 软偏好 only rank who goes first, and never leave a game without a referee. Each has a weight slider for how much it counts. Four types can be soft preferences: 同一场地偏好, 均衡工作量, 裁判/队伍排除 and 自定义条件.

In most rules, 适用于 picks who it covers: 所有裁判, 仅限官员 (the referees on your list) or 仅限队伍. 比赛类型 keeps it to 仅限循环赛 or 仅限淘汰赛. Where a rule below follows 范围, 特定分区 covers the games of the divisions you pick, 特定球队 the teams you pick, and 特定裁判 the referees you pick from your list; with none picked, it covers no one. Every rule has a switch to turn it off without deleting it, and a bin to delete it. Click a rule’s title to open or close it.

最大并发执裁

For teams. Sets under 最大同时进行的场地数 how many games a team can referee at the same time, on different courts. Without it, a team referees one game at a time. A referee from your list always gets one game at a time.

最大连续任务

Limits how many time slots in a row a referee or team works, to the number under 最大连续比赛数 (3 if you leave it empty). Sitting out one time slot, a break on the schedule included, or starting a new day begins the count again; the minutes between games don’t matter. A team that plays in between has sat out too. Games you put them on yourself count. Follows 范围.

允许执裁的队伍

Only the teams you pick under 队伍 referee. Without it, any team can.

赛区执裁本赛区

Teams only referee games of the division they play in. A game with no free team in its own division gets no team referee rather than one from another division.

赛区分配

The teams you pick under 队伍 only referee games of the divisions under 允许的赛区. While this rule is on, the teams it doesn’t list can be given games in any division too.

小组互相执裁

For divisions split into groups. Under 小组如何配对:

• 每个小组执裁我选择的小组: for each group you list, pick under 可以执裁 the groups its teams may referee. Groups you don’t list are left free.
• 只相互执裁的一组小组: the teams of the groups you pick only referee those groups’ games. 同时禁止其他所有小组执裁这些小组的比赛 also keeps every other team off them.

Only group play is affected: playoff games belong to no group.

输掉比赛后不能执裁

For playoffs. The loser of a game never referees the next game of the team that beat it. When the loser of the previous game on the court would, automatic assignment gives the game to a team already knocked out, or to a seed that isn’t playing, instead. Round robin games aren’t affected.

Follows 范围, but which team fills a playoff place isn’t known yet when referees are assigned, so only 全局（全部） and 特定分区 do anything here.

赛前不能执裁

For teams. A team doesn’t referee a round robin game of the team it plays next, nor a playoff game whose winner or loser it may play next, such as a seed with a bye refereeing the game that decides its opponent. Automatic assignment gives the game to another team or place instead.

Follows 范围. On playoff places, only 全局（全部） and 特定分区 apply, for the same reason as above.

裁判/队伍排除

Keeps a referee or a team off the games of the teams you pick. Set 范围 to 特定裁判 or 特定球队 and pick who, then list under 排除的队伍 the teams they shouldn’t referee.

裁判禁用

Keeps referees off games that start during a time window: pick a 天 or 所有日期, then a 开始时间 and an 结束时间. A day without times blocks that whole day. To block one referee or one team, set 范围 to 特定裁判 or 特定球队 and pick them.

球类型认证

Gives a referee from your list only the games of divisions that play with one of their 球类型 (see how to add referees). A referee with no ball types can take any game.

最低裁判等级

For referees from your list. Only referees at or above the level under 最低级别 get the games it covers. From lowest to highest: 学员, 初级, 已认证, 高级, 首席.

A referee’s level is the 裁判等级 you set when adding them to the event (see how to add referees). Left on 默认, the level on their referee profile counts. A referee with no level at all gets none of these games.

To cover only some playoff games, pick their stages under 季后赛阶段（可选）. Left empty, the rule covers every game 比赛类型 allows. Follows 范围.

均衡工作量

As a soft preference, favours the referees and teams with the fewest games so far. Even without it, those with the fewest games are tried first.

As a hard rule, nobody gets more than one game ahead of whoever has the fewest: among all the referees on your list, or among the teams that could referee the game. Someone who can’t take games for a while, blacked out or playing, holds the others back, so some games can be left without a referee. Follows 范围.

同一场地偏好

As a soft preference, favours keeping a referee or team on the court of the last game they refereed. As a hard rule, a referee or team stays all day on the court of their first game that day. Follows 范围.

自定义条件

Builds your own IF/THEN rule. 当 narrows the games and referees it looks at. 然后 says whether they 必须匹配 or 不能匹配 the conditions you add there. Conditions can look at the referee’s type (official or team) and the game’s court, round, type or playoff stage.
