Here you get to play 3 games each...AND...we're basing the bonus on how many cards are in your run. Will you be the one with the most? OR, will your opponent take you to task. Only your dealer really knows... During this tournament, making a eight card run or higher generates a bonus based on length of run. Each player must wait for their opponent to verify posting of the run. Failure to do so will result in that run not being counted towards the match. <blockquote> Simply stated: <ul> <li> 1 - 7 Card Runs = no bonus <li>8 Card Run = 8000 <li>9 Card Run = 9000 <li>10 Card Run = 10000 <li>and as high as you can run.</blockquote> <center>Only post your run in chat AFTER you've come to the end of the run.</center> <blockquote>Example of scoring: <ul> <li> Player 1 is playing their first game....they hit a run of 11 and post it in chat as +11k. Player 2 verifies it. Player 1 continues until their game ends. <li>Player 1 adds the 11k bonus to their score at the end of their turn. <li>Player 2 is playing their first game....they hit a run of 9 and post it in chat as +9k. Player 1 verifies it, and player 2 continues. <li>Player 2 adds the 9k bonus to their score at the end of their turn. <li>Play would now continue with each player posting all 8 or more card runs in chat. <li>After all 3 games...the scores are added....and highest point total wins!!</blockquote> <li>All rounds will consist of 3 games each, including the Finals. <li>Always make sure your Opponent has entered your room before beginning your game. If you start before your Opponent enters your room, you must restart your game. <li>If you were not in an Opponent's room before they started their game, you must notify them before they finish and post their score for that game. If you do not notify your Opponent before they have posted their score, then that posted score will stand and they will not have to re-start their game. <li>Once tourney starts, Players will have 5 minutes to begin their first game. No-shows will be reported as a loss. <li>Player listed on top of bracket starts first. <li>ALL scores are to be announced and acknowledged in chat by everyone playing in the tourney. Failure to do so may be cause for removal from tournament. <li>All losses are to be reported on TOURNEY PAGE ONLY!! If you have to type in a name, you are reporting on the wrong page! Immediately request assistance from the hosting TD. <li>If a Player is in the middle of a game and gets disconnected from Hemanubis for any reason, then that Player must start their game over. Unless INVITED by their opponent to do otherwise. <li>If a Player was disconnected and has to reboot, they will have 8 minutes (no ping) or 3 minutes (ping present AND delaying the match) to return to Hemanubis. Multiple reboots may result in disqualification from tournament play and a loss being posted for that Player at the discretion of the Tournament Director. <li>While playing your game, if your OPPONENT is booted - you must halt play immediately and contact the hosting TD, who will then verify your score. Failure to do so will result in replay of your game. <li>No Player is allowed to play in a league match while playing in the tournament. Any Player found doing so will be disqualified from the tournament immediately!! <li>There will be no exceptions to the above rule as this is also a part of Case's rules for all leaguers. You must either halt your league play at the end of the present game being played when tournament starts and keep scores to the side or withdraw from tournament to continue with league match.</ul> <center>GOOD LUCK TOWNIES!</center> </tr></table>
