Casualties & Scoring
- Casualties counted are only those that would normally award a player SPP
- For example: failing a dodge and causing yourself a casualty would not count as a casualty unless the player being dodged from has a skill that would allow you to gain SPP from it
- Bonus points are awarded for gaining SPP (e.g., a player scoring a Touchdown = 3 bonus points, unless a rule changes the SPP amount)
- Bonus points will only be used as tie-breakers when applicable
Scoring System
- Win: 100 pts
- Tie: 40 pts
- Loss: 20 pts
Stalling Rule
If a player is found to be stalling, the opposing team's fans will let their displeasure be known! The opposing team's fan factor will be added to all stalling rolls.
Chess Clocks
Chess clocks will be used to ensure that all players stay on time and have an equal amount of time to play. If you run out of play time, you will forfeit your remaining turns.
Tournament Management
Tournament will be run using https://bbtm.app/. It is recommended that you use it to update your games, but it is not required.
