Judging & Sportsmanship:

The objective of tournament play is for everyone to to have a good time. Players are expected to be courteous and patient with their opponents and the Judge. Players are expected to accept all rulings made by the Judge whether or not they agree. The Judge always has the final word on rules questions or debates.

We assume that all players are good sports and understand fair play. If there is a dispute, simply call on the judge to assist. Players should strive at all times to be mature, polite, and fair to their opponents. Failure to do this may result in a Strike. Each Strike accrued will cost a player 10% of their total tournament score for the Tournament. Three Strikes accrued ar a single event will result in the player being removed from the event.

A Judge may award a Strike for any incident deemed unsporting. This included but is not limited to offensive or abusive conduct, bullying, cheating, constant rules arguments, stalling game play and other immature actions. Players must do their best to play in a timely manner. If stalling is suspected the judge should be called on to speed up play. it is important to remember that a Judge is free to award a Strike to both competitors of a game if the situation warrants. In some minor cases a Judge may elect to officially warn players once for any given indiscretion. Repeated offenses will incur a strike.

A Strike may also be awarded for incorrect or illegal army lists or failure to bring along all the necessary materials required to play in the Tournament. If a list is discovered to be illegal after the start of the tournament, the judge may elect to disqualify the player from any winnings or awards.
