Players needed: 2
teams of 2
WHO WINS the game is NOT IMPORTANT !! Your objective is for your TEAM to get as many pawns in your own homes BEFORE the game ends !!
There will be 8 - 10 tourneys per month depending on month. You must play at least HALF of those tournaments ie: have played at least 4 or 5 games to qualify for the free month. If you only play 1
game instead of 2 on any PRO Pards Tournament you may need to make up that
missed game in order to qualify. The HIGHEST 4 (or 5) scores for each player will be totaled to determine the Ranking for all the players. The more you play, the more chance you have to better your score.
However, a persons free time should not be used as a qualifying factor. So for those who cant make every tourney - there are WILDCARD Positions - explained below. The WILDCARDS come from 8 pre-determined ranked positions. 6th place will ALWAYS be a wildcard. The other 7 are picked randomly.
Please note due
to the number of ties & WILDCARD players picking other WILDCARD players
to play in the PLAYOFFS If 2 WILDCARDs play together, they will play at the HIGHER RANKED position. Subs are taken in order (Sub 1
then Sub2). If more subs are needed then the next non playoff player will play & so on. If a WILDCARD player in an UNBREAKABLE TIE cant play, the pard they are tied with takes the WILDCARD position.
HOW IT WORKS: Each player may pick their own pard to play with. You may also enter as a single & a pard will be assigned to you for that tournament only. No changes once assigned. EACH PARD will receive 1 point per TOTAL pawns IN THEIR HOME TRIANGLES ONLY. 2 pawns = 2 points, 5 pawns = 5 points etc...
Max points that can be made by any Team will be 7 per game multiplied by 2 games each tournament = 14 points max per pard. Points are given to each player so you may play with different pards each time you play. Pawn points for each player will be kept track of & updated 'usually' within 24 hours of playing.
NEW AS OF JUNE 2017 PLAYERS/JULY PLAYOFFS - 4 PRIZES EACH MONTH instead of 2 At the end of the month the players in FIRST & SECOND PLACE will EACH receive a FREE 30 day Yacht Club Membership to keep for themselves or give to another player. No need to play in any playoffs or finals. They each win their prize outright.
STANDARD RULES
EVERYONE who plays BOTH ROUNDS will either be given credit on SHG as 1st, 2nd or 3rd place.
Individual banners will NOT be made unless you request it. You must play in BOTH ROUNDS to be entered in the SHG TOC database. Ties for Qualifying SCORES
will be broken in the
following way: FIRST: a players ranking
game scores come
into play. ie: 8,7,7,6,6,4 is better than 8,7,7,6,5,5 even
thou they both add up to 38. If those numbers all tie
then... SECOND: by the number of games played
as long as the same.
If the Games Played is the same
number then the
total scores will be compared & the higher score wins.
if the scores are a TIE then the rules for
RAW SCORE are used. (see THIRD) If the Games Played are
NOT the
same number
& the player with LESS games has a higher total
they will rank higher or.. THIRD: the RAW score for each
player. Higher raw score ranks higher. If
still a tie..
Then by the LOWEST scores a player has
regardless of number of games played until tie is broken.
If still a tie.. Then by the SUM of the FIRST & LAST score a
player has regardless of number of games played.
If still a tie Check with
Host. Players who keep the
same pard all month WILL end up with a tie that cant be broken. Whichever player on the team ends
up in the WILDCARD/FINALIST position is the ONLY player on the team who made
WILDCARD or FINALIST. Its up to the WILDCARD/FINALIST player to pick the tied player as
their pard but they are under NO obligation to do so. BOOTING / HITTING REMOVE
or RESIGN
If a player boots from a table,
that player has 5 min to come back. REMOVE is not to be hit by
any of the remaining players on the table for any reason. When
a boot happens, the HOST SHOULD BE NOTIFIED so a pawn count can be taken AT
THAT TIME & player can be timed. PLEASE screenshot your game. If
a player hits remove, by accident or otherwise, that player will be DQ'd
& lose pawn count for the night. If
host is not notified of boot & the booted player is removed, the game
will be declared over, all players on table will be D'Qd & lose their
pawn count for the night. In addition the booted player will get 4
points automatically.
Hitting resign in a game will give a player a 24 hour ban
from playing in our room for the first offence. More on
this under Game Rules
If a player resigns please call host to table
immediately. Host will then
take pawn count of those in the HOME TRIANGLE AND in the HOME.. The players will then RESEAT with a sub & start a new game. Depending on how many pawns the players have depends on how many pawns they can play with in this game. For example:
In the new game with a sub:
To only play with a certain amount of pawns - DONT take more than that out of your nest.
The resigning player will not be allowed to play in PRO/BOSP for the remainder of the month & will not be eligible for ANY Playoff they may have been in.
SEATING Round 1 you will be seated as you ask in. If you go in single you will be assigned a pard. NO pard changes.
Round 2 you will be seated AS NEPTUNE REPORTS keeping the same colors together - see below.
