2016 Tennessee Open 3-Move Tournament Rules of Play:
2½
hours per round - 2 games (1 hour & 15 minutes per game) If the game is not completed on time, then a move per minute
for 10 minutes. If the move per minute does not create a decision, then the
referee (Frank Davis) will make a decision for the results. Frank Davis also has the options to ask for another Master's
decision on a judicial decision. When both masters ask for a computer analysis (decision) the
position must show a value of 60 point to declare the win using KingsRow. Player may request their 1st game completed by a referee
decision so their 2nd game of that round starts on time for equal time &
fairness. A 3 point bye round would be awarded as the first bye,
thereafter to the lowest opponent. Only two points per multiple bye will be awarded to the
lowest opponent. If a player is 15 minutes late, then the game will be
forfeited. If a player is 1 hour late or more, then both games will be
forfeited. Repairing, only if necessary in last round (one time). 4 points for a forfeit round (2 points per game). 3 points for 1st bye,
multiple byes thereafter gets only 2 points. 2 points for a win. 1 point for a draw.
