6. Simon is not obliged to tell players which machines will be used prior to the tournament day.
7. Players will be grouped in fours and if necessary one or two groups of threes. There will be four separate rounds of three matches. This means every player will play twelve matches in total.
8. In each round each group will play a single game on three different machines and allocated points according to their finishing position; 7/5/3/1 for four player groups and
7/4/1 for three players groups. This is the IFPA system of scoring.
9. For the first round, grouping will be based on IFPA rankings.
10. After the first round groupings will be random.
11. At the close of the fourth round, the player with the highest points score will be declared the tournament winner.
12. Ties will be broken by the number of first place finishes, then by the number of second place finishes, then by head-to-head results within groups and finally, if necessary, a single game play-off.
