They are very similar to previous tournaments except that ten games will be played through eight weeks. In two Wednesday of the eight weeks the coordinator will introduce a second set for this week.It is not necessary to play to ten games to take part at the tournament but the winner must have played at least eight games.
Election of games
Each member of MARP may vote for three games. The vote will take place one week before the tournament. With the elected games there will be a drawing to choose eight games and two games will be chosen by the coordinator.
The coordinator may change the default settings of the game or put additional rules (eg, number of levels reached, over punctuation).

Other
General rules of MARP are valid (first credit, 95% of speed, etc.).
Techniques that are banned on MARP regulation play will not be allowed in this tournament.
No recording can be uploading 48 hours after you recorded it. --> All players have to sumbit an inp before 48 hours since it was recorded. The reason of this is avoid or try to avoid that some players hide their score until the last moment (especially if the score is very high and can change the first places in the overall). The input file has a timestamp but I have heard that can be changed easilly using the windows clock. There isn't a simple way to check that situation. So, we should rely on the sportmanship of each player. Of course, you can upload all the inps you want without waiting time between inps submitted. The unique restriction is the limit of 48 hours mentioned above.
In the topic of each game is mandatory to post the score.
Next days i will put the votings for dates and games.
Extra rules
Two extra games will be added by me at any time so stay tuned ...
