So today my team participated in a VRC tournament which initially planned to have 6 qualification matches per team but during the tournament they only held 4/6 qualification matches for each team. So I would like to know if this tournament still would be an official VRC tournament since it violates T14.

Well judging by the result timestamps it appears it was a long rough day. I am pretty your EP would have been in regular contact with the RECF Event Engagement Manager - who will make decisions about granting it as qualifying. I suspect they will, as it appears all efforts were made to play as many rounds as possible and get teams home before mid-night.
I would wait until Wednesday to see if results were finalized (that would appear in Awards tab). If not, then email your RECF Team Engagement Manager and ask for clarification.

This usually happens on pivots and non-considered things like a team not being able to compete, not being there, and some others. But I don’t know for this one.
Hi, I was also at the fall fight. The reason they shortened it was due to a rough management of the overall competition, along with constantly needing to repair the same field throughout the day. I also heard from some of my sister teams that this was normal and happened sometimes.
It was a very interesting comp, I was there too. But they probably did it because it was so behind schedule.
