ABSOLUTELY NO MULTI-TASKING WILL BE PERMITTED DURING ANY TOURNEY THAT YOU ARE REGISTERED IN OR SUBBIN. THIS INCLUDES ANYTHING THAT WILL PREVENT THE GAME FROM MOVING ON IN A TIMELY FASHION. YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO BE AT ANOTHER TABLE WHILE PLAYING AT A TABLE. YOU WILL BE ASKED TO LEAVE TABLE IF YOU DON'T THEY CAN DQ YOU FROM TOURNEY.

YOU ARE ONLY ALLOWED TO PLAY IN ONE TOURNEY AT A TIME. IF FOR SOME REASON YOU ARE IN 2 TOURNEYS AT ONCE YOU WILL BE ALLOWED TO PICK WHICH TOURNEY YOU WILL PLAY IN. THE ONLY TIME YOU WOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO PICK IS IF YOU WERE PLAYING IN ONE THEN PLAYED IN A SECOND TOURNEY THEN YOU WOULD CONTINUE IN THE SECOND AND DQ OUT OF FIRST ONE (EXAMPLE...YOUR IN THE 730PM TOURNEY THEN YOU PLAYED IN THE 8PM YOU WOULD THEN BE DQ'D OUT OF THE 730PM TOURNEY BECAUSE YOU HAD PLAYED IN THE 8PM.

IF A GAME STARTS WITH ANY NON MEMBER SITTING AT TABLE THEN THE TABLE MUST BE REMADE AND REPLAYED. NO KIBITZING IS ALLOWED UNLESS GAME CALLS FOR TD TO KIBITZ

ALL DISPUTES WITH A TOURNEY SHOULD BE ADDRESSED WITH THE TD THAT IS HOSTING THE GAME. SEND THEM A MESSAGE AFTER GAME SO THAT THE ISSUE CAN BE RESOLVED. IF THERE IS A BOO TD WILL ASK THE PLAYERS TO STOP PLAY TO ADDRESS THE BOO, ONCE IT IS HANDLED THEY WILL ASK FOR THE GAME TO RESUME. THE TD HOSTING THE GAME HAS FINAL SAY OVER ALL MATTERS.DO NOT SKIP WITHOUT TD TELLING YOU TO SKIP OR IF ANOTHER TD IS WATCHING TABLE THEN THEY WILL HANDLE

YOU CAN ONLY PLAY IN 1 TOURNEY AT A TIME. ONCE PAIRINGS ARE UP YOU MUST MAKE DECISION WHICH TOURNEY TO PLAY IN. LETS SAY UR IN 7PM TOURNEY FINALS AND THE TD PUTS UP PAIRINGS FOR 730 TOURNEY AT THAT TIME YOU MUST SAY WHICH TOURNEY YOU ARE PLAYING IN. ONCE YOU CONTINUE TO PLAY IN 7PM THEN YOU ARE DQ'D BY TD N 730.

THE FIRST PERSON IN PAIRINGS WILL MAKE TABLE THERE WILL BE A TIMER PUT IN LOBBY. FIRST PERSON LISTED HAS FIRST CHOICE OF SEAT IF THEY DON'T MAKEA MINUTE, THEN IT WILL GO TO THE SECOND PLAYER LISTED AND TIMER THEN WILL BE PUT ON THAT PLAYER. THEN THE 3RD LISTED AND SO ON. ONCE THE FIRST TEAM SITS, THEY MUST REMAIN SITTING IN THOSE SEATS AND CANNOT GET UP TO CHANGE. AFTER FIRST TEAM SITS, THE SECOND TEAM THEN SITS AND ALL SEATING AT THE TABLE MUST REMAIN THE SAME. NO STANDING TO SWITCH SEATS ONCE YOU HAVE CHOSEN YOUR SEAT.IN A 2 VS 2 THE TIMER IS PUT ON THE WHOLE TEAM IT DONT MATTER WHICH ONE MAKES.

FAST PLAY IS EXPECTED AND APPRECIATED AT ALL TIMES!! WE UNDERSTAND THAT EVERYONE WANTS TO HAVE A GOOD TIME, WE ALL DO. SO WHEN TYPING AT TABLE PLEASE TRY TO TALK BETWEEN THROWING YOUR CARDS TO KEEP THE GAME MOVING AT A STEADY PACE. WE ALSO UNDERSTAND THAT SOME OF OUR MEMBERS HAVE DIAL-UP AND SLOW CONNECTIONS AS WELL AS PING ISSUES SO WE WILL GIVE YOU 10 SECONDS TO MAKE YOUR PLAY. IF YOU DO NOT MAKE A PLAY THE T.D WILL ASK IF YOU ARE OK. IF YOU DO NOT REPLY YOU WILL BE GIVEN A WARNING. AFTER 2 WARNINGS IN THE SAME TOURNEY FOR SLOW PLAY YOU WILL BE DQ'D.

IF IT IS A PING, FREEZE OR BOOT ISSUE THE TIMER WILL BE APPLIED. IF YOU HAVE SUDDEN CONNECTION ISSUES THE T.D. MAY BE ABLE TO GIVE YOU SUGGESTIONS ON HOW TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. WHEN PLAYING IN A TOURNEY YOU ARE ALLOWED TO TYPE IN LOBBY BUT IF YOU SLOW PLAY DOWN U WILL BE WARNED AND ON SECOND WARNING YOU WILL BE DQ'D FROM TOURNEY.

CHEATING IN ANY SHAPE OR FORM WILL NOT BE TOLERATED YOU WILL BE BOXED AND OR BANNED FROM LEAGUE .(THIS INCLUDES BOOING ON PURPOSE.) TABLE TALK IS NOT ALLOWED EVER! IF THERE IS TABLE TALK THE TD CAN AND WILL HAVE YOU SKIP HANDS. YOU ARE NOT TO ARGUE WITH TD ABOUT IT AT ALL OR YOU CAN BE BOXED OR BANNED FROM LEAGUE.

M.I.A AND FREEZE CLOCK IS AS FOLLOWS: IF YOU REGISTER IN THE TOURNEY AND ARE HAVING TROUBLE GETTING INTO THE LOBBY, LET THE T.D. KNOW! THEY WILL PUT YOU ON A 5 MINUTE TIMER TO ALLOW YOU TIME TO GET INTO THE LOBBY. IF A MEMBER THAT IS REGISTERED IN A TOURNEY IS BOOTED FROM THE LOBBY, OR FREEZES AT ANY POINT DURING THEIR ROUND THEY ARE PUT ON A 5 MINUTE TIMER. YOU ONLY HAVE 1 TIMER DURING THE TOURNEY AND THE T.D. WILL KEEP TRACK OF THE TIME USED. ONCE THE TIME HAS BEEN USED YOU WILL BE DQ'D. HOWEVER, IF YOU ARE MIA A TEMPORARY SUB WILL BE PUT IN PLACE UNTIL YOU GET BACK. THIS WILL KEEP THE GAME MOVING. WHEN YOU RETURN, AT THE END OF THE CURRANT HAND THE SUB WILL STAND AND YOU WILL RESUME YOUR SEAT.

IF YOU DO NOT GET BACK IN TIME THE SUB WILL STAY AND AUTO ADVANCE WILL BE ANNOUNCED TO THE TABLE. IF THE SUB GETS BOOTED ANOTHER SUB WILL BE NEEDED. IF THE SUB THAT WAS BOOTED RETURNS THEY WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO SIT IF ANOTHER SUB IS IN PLACE. IF YOU ARE SUBBING IN A TOURNEY AND THE PAIRINGS COME UP FOR A TOURNEY YOU ARE IN AND YOUR TO MAKE TABLE OR YOUR NAME IS UP TO PLAY YOU MUST STAND AT THAT TIME DO NOT PLAY HAND OUT.

LONERS ARE ALLOWED FOR MOST OF OUR GAMES AS LONG AS YOUR TEAM HAS 8 POINTS OR LESS. IF YOU MAKE A MISTAKE AND GO ALONE ON 9 POINTS THE HAND IS SKIPPED, THE OPPOSING TEAM WILL DECIDE ON HOW MANY TIMES TO SKIP, 1 OR 2. THIS DOES COUNT AS A BOO. BOO RULE IS AS FOLLOWS: ALL PLAYERS REGISTERED IN A TOURNEY IS ALLOWED A TOTAL OF 2 BOO'S FOR THAT TOURNEY, UNLESS SPECIFIED WITH-IN THE GAME RULES THAT ARE POSTED AT THE TABLE. WHEN A PERSON BOO'S THE OPPOSING TEAM WILL DECIDE IF THE HAND IS SKIPPED 1 OR 2 TIMES (UNLESS THE BOO IS FIXABLE THEN THE OTHER TEAM MEMBER WILL BE ASKED TO CALL.

GAMES LIKE SUICIDE, DIRTY GAMES ETC.) IF THE BOO IS NOT FIXABLE THEN THE TD WILL RESUME THE GAME AFTER THE NUMBER OF SKIPS HAVE BEEN ACHIEVED. BOTH PLAYERS MUST AGREE ON HOW MANY SKIPS. IF IT IS SKIPPED BEFORE AGREEMENT THEN SKIP BACK TO THE DEALER AND ASK AGAIN HOW MANY SKIPS THEN IT IS SKIPS AS THEY AGREE ON. HOWEVER, THERE ARE NO BOO'S ALLOWED IN THE FINAL ROUND. IF YOU ARE IN A 2 VS 2 THIS RULE APPLIES TO BOTH PLAYERS ON THE TEAM!!

IN A SINGLE PLAYER GAME IF YOU ARE ONE OF THE FINALIST AND YOU BOO YOU WILL BE D.Q'D. IF YOUR SUB BOO'S IT DOES NOT COUNT AGAINST YOU. BUT THEY MUST STAND AND YOU WILL NEED ANOTHER SUB. IF YOU REACH 2 BOO'S OR ARE A FINALIST AND BOO YOU WILL BE D.Q'D SO BE CAREFUL!!! AND IF YOU ARE SUBBING AND BOO IT WILL NOT COUNT AS A BOO FOR YOU, BUT YOU MUST STAND AND THEY HAVE TO GET ANOTEHR SUB. THERE ARE SOME FIXABLE BOO'S. YOU WILL STILL GET A BOO (UNLESS YOUR A SUB)BUT THE PARTNER IS TO CALL TRUMP SO NO SKIPPING IS NEEDED. IF YOU BOO OUT OF A TOURNEY YOU CANNOT SUB IN SAME TOURNEY UNLESS THERE IS NO ONE ELSE TO SUB.

TEAM/PARTNER TOURNEY RULES & POLICIES * SUBS ARE ALLOWED IN A TEAM TOURNAMENT. IF A PLAYER GOES MIA, THE REMAINING TEAM MEMBER(S) WILL BE ALLOWED A SUB. IF THE MIA TEAM MEMBER DOES NOT RETURN BEFORE THE TIMER EXPIRES, HE/SHE WILL BE DQ'D BUT HIS/HER TEAM WILL BE ALLOWED TO CONTINUE IN THE TOURNEY WITH A SUB. BOO RULES APPLY TO THE ENTIRE TEAM - 2 BOOS PER TEAM NO MATTER WHO BOOS (EXAMPLE PRETTY MARY ARE PARTNERS MARY BOOS 2 TIMES OR BOOS IN FINALS BOTH ARE DQ'D). IF YOUR TEAM BOOS IN FINALS BOTH PARTNERS WILL BE DQ'D.

IF YOU ARE IN SAME HOUSE YOU CANNOT PARTNER UP IN A TOURNEY. YOU MAY NOT SUB FOR EACH OTHER EITHER. IF YOU GO AUTOLOCATOR AND CASES PAIR YOU UP THEN IT IS OK. IF YOU TEAM UP THEN WE WILL DQ YOUR TEAM.
