Here are the rules for tonight's beer pong tournament at Arena! See you guys in a bit!
Dear participants, lets revisit our tournament rules:
1. Double Cherry redemption β Double Cherry means game over, but if the opposite team makes a Double Cherry before your first throw, you would have once chance to Double Cherry back for redemption, the game will restart if such sequence occurs.
2. No elbow rules - You can lean as long as one feet is on the ground and your other hand is not pressing against the table.
3. Defense β As soon as the ball hits the table or cup, you can Block, Slap or Do nothing, but no blowing is allowed during tournaments.
4. Defense β Yes you can distract your opponents whatever way you want, but please do it behind the table line and do not touch the table, the judge may award you a yellow card or issue for a bonus rethrow to the other team (2 yellow cards result in a one cup deduction).
5. Fouls - If you knock off any cups during the game, or if you touch the oppositions thrown ball before it touches the table or cup, it will be counted as a foul and a cup will be removed in the next round.
6. Time Limit β all games have a 10 minute time limit, if time runs out before all cups are cleared, each team would then have one last round to finish the game. No time limit for Semi-final and Finals game.
7. Overtime β If both teams have equal cups as time expires, game will be decided by Sudden Death in Overtime, 3 cups will be arranged on each side, initial possession is determined by a game of Paper-Scissors-Stone, each team shoots once each round, if a team makes the cup, the opposite side will have one shot to redeem (reset if redemption is successful).
8. Once the first ball is in the cup, you cannot touch or blow it to affect its position in the cup.
See you tonight!
