QUALIFYING FORMAT: 8 rounds of group match play. Swiss pairings. 7/5/3/1 scoring per game.

Top 16 players make "A" finals (based on minimum of 32 players)

FINALS FORMAT: Top 16 Players make the “A” Finals. Automatic Tiebreakers are turned on and will be used to seed the field. Exception will be 16th place. If less than 4 players are tied for 16th place, the players will have a 1 GAME Playoff played on Stars to determines who advances to the Finals. If more than 4 players tied for 16th place, the players will play a 1 GAME playoff on Stars. This playoff game will be significant and will result in the final position for those players that don’t make it into the final. For example, if we have 3 players tied at 15th place, after the tiebreaker game the winner would be placed in 15th, 2nd would be placed 16th, 3rd would be placed 17th.

The format will consist of 3 rounds, playing 3 games each round. High seed will drive the bus for all 3 games. No game can be played twice in the same round. No one is allowed to wait for a game in use.

Scoring will be 4/2/1/0 for each of the 3 games. Top 2 advance, bottom 2 are eliminated.
