7. Manhunt: Point Starving

The following are three separate definitions of point starving. It is up to the tournament organizers to specify which definition is used for their specific tournament. If no definition is specified, the Stun-based Rule is used.
Once a player is grouped up with at least one teammate, they are locked into the wall spot they are currently at and cannot leave it.
Once a player is walled up, they cannot exit the wall spot until they get at least one stun.
If three or more players are grouped up*, none of these players can run to another spot unless their teammates they were grouped with died and only they are left alive. * In the case of 2v2s, both players have to be grouped up together. For 1v1s, the stun-based definition is used.
If point starving takes place, proof must be handed over to the tournament officials, who will determine its impact on the outcome of the game. Depending on the severity of the point starving, the equation described in 5. Remakes may be used to determine whether the game must be remade:
If team 2 intentionally point starves (meaning the remake rules cannot be applied), they must forfeit the match. In the case of Assassins' Network seasonal games, the loss will only be handed to the player(s) who performed the point starving.
So called "wall spots" or "blend spots" are loosely defined here. Each block of color represents a different blend spot, i.e. one cannot move from color A to color B if one does not fullfill the requirements according to the point starving definition.
