• IFPA Scoring - 7,5,3,1 and 7,4,1 for groups of 3

• If you play out of turn you will be DQ'd from that game and receive ZERO points, the other players will plunge out your remaining balls - this means you can NOT play that game in this round any longer.

• Qualifying will END once someone reaches the number 46 points - this will be at least 7 rounds

• Top 8 to finals if we have over 48 players there will be the top 16 to finals.

• Next 8 to B finals - you are NOT eligible for B if you have previously won a LP B division (B division will NOT change your tournament results)

<<<< FINALS >>>>

• Top 8 to finals.... If we have over 50 players there will be the top 16 to finals

• Don't forget all tie breakers are on OLD CHICAGO (if it's not working Wizard! is next) - these are house rules.

• Group Elimination Bracket - 3 games per round, Papa scoring (4,2,1,0)

• Trophies & cash to top 4 & B Div. Players

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

We will be playing by the IFPA/ Papa Rules.
Know who your TDs are and refer to them for any rulings, even if you know the ruling, a TD for this event must asses the situation and call the ruling.
