This is a novelty tournament in that it requires the players to choose the games which will compose their match.   The games are chosen from a preselected list of games.   Contrary to Ray's personal bias (in favor of double-elimination tournaments), this will be a single elimination tournament.   It will be offered in three divisions ("A", "B" and "C").

Each match will be best of five games. Each player will be allowed to list five games on their game card (no game may be listed on a game card more than once). The match will consist of the games choosen from the game cards for that match (one per player). Players get to write a new game card for each match.

The first game will be selected by the winner of the opening lag. Subsequent games will be chosen by the looser of the previous game and opening break of the chosen game will be assigned by the person choosing that game.

  1. Bottle-Pocket,
