1.14 Pauses are allowed, but a maximum of two pauses, each 5 minutes, per team. If you cannot agree for longer pauses the game can be resumed after 5 minutes, before pausing and unpausing you need to inform your enemy about this, so you don`t get any advantage.

1.16 Maximum of two remakes per team.
1.17 If one hero disconnects and there is no remake, you are allowed to. 1) Use the hero and his items. 2) Sell all items from the hero. You are not allowed to take the items and sell them, or take the items and use them! This rule means that you can team sell the items and still use the leaver.
