There must be at least 8 entries in a division for it to run. A player may sign up for one or both divisions. If, however, the tournament director feels a player has entered a division below their ability he will either enter the player in the proper division (with player's approval), or not allow that player's entry.
If there are not enough entries for two divisions then all willing contestants may be grouped in one division and the tournament run as Triple Elimination (payoff rates as per the A-division, entry fees per appropriate division). All elimination will be on a match basis, with each match being the best five-of-nine games.
Breaker of the first game of a match will be determined by lag. Looser of a game will be the breaker of the next game.
