If a tournament is stretched over more than one day, you only get 5 points total, not each day. EG WCS 2-3 days, only 5 points since just the one tournament.
This includes qualifiers. If there is a main event, with 2-3 qualifiers, you only get the particpation bonus once.

Players may earn extra points with Challenge Matches!
Challenge Matches are a way to earn OSC Points, settle rivalries, get revenge on the guy who knocked you out of a recent tourney, is bm on ladder/forums, etc. It also presents as a way to leapfrog someone up the ranks. You pick the reason to call a challenge, if you need one, regardless, the goal is to take his/her points! Send out a challenge!
Minimum points a challenge must start at is 15 each, Max 100. Winner takes all!
Max can be extended towards the end of the season (150).
If both players agree they may then face off in a best of 5 or 7 series for the OSC points.
The OSC team will donate a bonus 15 points to winner of any best of 5 streamed match, and 25 points towards any best of 7 streamed match!!
Challenges must be approved by a member of the OSC team.
