Monitoring of Games and Participants
Once roll call is completed, players will be separated into break out rooms consisting of no more than 10 players per group. Arbiters should then ask all participants to properly position and turn on cameras as well as begin screen share. Players ideally should be located in a room by themselves, however, if this is not possible players should inform their breakout room arbiter.
