A three person team 8-ball championship brings a full weekend of competitive play with a player auction held before matches begin. Individuals without a team are welcome to participate in the auction, and competition starts immediately after it concludes. Up to 32 teams can enter at $120 per team, with $15 allocated to the greens fee and the balance paid out to the field. A Calcutta is included with a 100 percent payout and no fee taken from players. Teams must complete check in by the stated deadline or risk being moved to a waiting list and potentially losing their spot, and entry fees are not refundable for lateness. Once play is underway, any team that fails to report to its assigned table within 15 minutes will forfeit. Each roster consists of three players with a maximum team FargoRate of 1450, and only one player rated 600 or higher is allowed per team. Players without a FargoRate will be assigned a rating after research with local and regional tournament directors, which may take a few days. The tournament reserves the right to adjust a player’s skill level based on known ability and robustness. The format is double elimination, with the A side raced to 7 and the B side raced to 5. Team captains flip a coin, and the winner decides which side posts first. There are no skill restrictions on order of play. The first game begins with a lag to determine the breaker. For the second game, the opposing team posts its player. Each game won is worth one point. This is a winners break format, and the next player in rotation takes the break. After the third game, the order reverts to the first player and remains fixed until a team reaches the required points for the bracket side. Each team is allowed one timeout per rack. World standardized 8-ball rules are in effect. Call pocket and cue ball foul only. A miscue or an illegal break, defined as fewer than four balls contacting a rail, results in a turnover. A game cannot be won or lost on the break. A scratch on the break places the cue ball behind the head string. The table is open after the break, and a ball must be pocketed legally to establish stripes or solids. When shooting at the 8-ball, a scratch or foul is not a loss if the 8-ball is not pocketed or jumped from the table, and the incoming player receives ball in hand. A combination shot cannot be used to legally pocket the 8-ball. If a ball other than the cue ball is accidentally moved, the opponent may choose to replace it or leave it, and if replacement is chosen it must be restored to its prior position. Abuse of this rule results in disqualification from any further TTMD events. Standard requirements apply regarding contacting your group first and then a rail, and pocket safeties are permitted. Additional clarifications may be added as questions arise.
