4. There will be two divisions (Novice and Open). We will follow NFA-LD rules for eligibility. We reserve the right to collapse if necessary.

5. A 5 minute forfeit rule will be strictly enforced. Any competitor not ready to debate 5 minutes after the scheduled start time forfeits unless the delay has been created by the tournament.

We do not want the entire tournament to be late because of critics’ lengthy oral critiques! Return the ballot BEFORE beginning the critique!
