 | Jason Larsen This will give me an incentive to practice |
 | Dan Byrom This will give me an incentive to revert my recent practice :P |
 | Ronan M Higginson if you're wondering why I am here, Charlie let me come back on |
| Jason Larsen Please don't cheat |
| Ronan M Higginson I'd never cheat. This is probably my only opportunity left |
| Ronan M Higginson Please don't hate me as I am extremely sorry for my past actions |
| Ronan M Higginson Good to know. Thanks James :) |
 | Fiona T How does it work James? Do we just play the games as normal challenges, and let you know the result? Or will that automagically happen? |
| Ronan M Higginson Do we start playing now? |
 | Phil Collinge Just a suggestion James, might it be worthwhile scheduling each fixture with each of the four possible formats, then deleting those that weren't required? |
| Phil Collinge Also, a question... Does the first named player pick the format for second match as well as the first, or does player two pick second match? |

| Phil Collinge Que pasa? |

| Phil Collinge Are we to assume that this is now an ex-tournament? |
| Ronan M Higginson Probably |
Tourney round: Intermediates' Championship - Summer 2019: Sign-Ups & Prelims
Notes from the organizer: Entry Requirements:
- Must have a rolling rating between 1000-1600 attained for a period of 1 week or more during the sign-up period, which ends at 8pm BST 22nd May.
- Trial players are ineligible to compete.
--------------------------------------------------------------
The Intermediates' Championship is open to any player compliant with the regulations above. The format is designed so that all-round skill is rewarded but the opportunity to play to your strengths to attempt an early lead is also provided.
----------------------------------------------------------
Variant: Normal
Format:
Excluding the grand final, players will go against each other in a best of three, with the first two events being a format of the player's choosing. These options are as follows:
Letters Attack, Numbers Attack, Conundrum Attack, 15 Rounder
- Players may not choose the same format for the first two games. Who picks first will be randomly generated at the time of the first-round draws.
- Points will be defined by providing one point to the winner of the game, and not defined by the scores of the game itself. (e.g, a game of 100-75 will be considered 1-0)
- If the 15 Rounder has not been chosen and it is 1-1 going into the third game, the 15 Rounder must be the the format played.
- If the 15 Rounder *has* been chosen and it is 1-1 going into the third game, the tie-break will be the least frequently played option between both players over their previous tournament games. In the case of this happening in the Prelims or Round 1, it will be chosen at random.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Draw is at 8pm BST on May 22nd. Any questions feel free to ask. Best of luck!
James
