RULES - TOURNAMENT - TOP RANK

GTW League was created for the purpose of "friendly and fun competition." GTW is a non-laddering league.

GIN TO WIN RULES embrace the basics of, but supercede Case/MyLeague rules.

TOP RANK TOURNAMENT RULES
Effective 7/07

• The winner of the TOP RANK TOURNAMENT (held weekly) will receive the honor of first place until the next TOP RANK TOURNAMENT is held, or until the position is lost in any tournament play!
  
  
• The winner of the TOP RANK TOURNAMENT must play in a minimum of one tournament a day during the REGULAR schedule (i.e. Monday through Friday 5:30 - 9:30 and Saturday and Sunday 4:30 - 9:30) to allow other members to try and win first place or to move up to one of the top ranks. Day time tournaments are not part of the regular schedule but provided for the enjoyment of the players as an extra. Daytime tours count for any regular rank advancement (i.e. if the Top Rank winner loses to #2 during a daytime tour they would lose their #1) but play in daytime tours does not count toward fulfilling Top Rank obligations of playing in a tournament daily and they must play in an evening tour.
  
  
• If circumstances do not allow them to play in at least one tournament a day, they must notify the Head Admin and request a pass on this rule. But in fairness, they must make every effort to play at least one tournament during the regular calendar schedule (evenings).
  
  
• The purpose of the TOP RANK TOURNAMENT is to give EVERYONE a chance at first place!
  
  

ANY QUESTIONS please contact the Admins at any time for clarification.

TOURNAMENT RULES

The rules are determined by the individual TOURNAMENT DIRECTOR (TD) holding the event. Rules will be given prior to pairings of players. Please pay attention to the TD in the lobby at the beginning of all tours.

ALL players must use their proper POGO names to play in tournaments or to ladder. If you have registered to play in a tournament event then you MUST be in the same POGO name that you used to join GIN TO WIN.
