Top Five Specific Rules

1. A challenge match should be played between #1 and #2 at least every 2 days. If the challenge has not been played within 2 days, both will be deranked to #50 irregardless of who is at fault. The game should be in a best 2 out of 3 format with the #1 player making the first table, #2 making the second table and #1 making the third table if necessary.

2. The only position that is bump-free is the #2 position. #1 should not play #3 or #4 until the challenge match has been played (tourneys are exempt from this rule).

3. Top five players are not allowed to ask to be deranked until after all reports are in, except in situation where it is a Cases technical difficulty.

4. Members of the same household cannot be in the Top five at the same time. New Timing Rule for Round Robin Tourneys: When a Td is invited to the Table for a MIA in a Round Robin Tourney- The TD will time for 5 minutes. Once those 5 minutes are up the TD will then have the host invite a sub.

If the player returns prior to the 10 minute mark then the sub will stand and the player will take their rightful seat.

Should the missing player not return by the 10 minute mark, then they are Dq’d as is normal practice and that players opp is advanced win or lose.

This will not apply to finals
