Official Rules
The law of the land for the No Low T Invitational. Know them, break them at your own risk.
General Rules
- 1Proof of Score: Snap a photo of your score before submitting.
- 2Score Adjustments: Score adjustments go through the Commissioner. If the Commissioner's involved, Drummer, then Betty, then the Group decides.
- 3Eligibility: Any registered competitor is eligible to win the Mug — you do not need to compete in every event. Play as many or as few events as you like; the championship goes to whoever tops the overall standings.
- 4Scoring: Seven events award championship points by placement: 1st = 10, 2nd = 8, 3rd = 6, 4th = 5, 5th = 4, and 6th or lower = 3. The 3-point participation floor requires a valid recorded result — signing up, attending, or attempting an event without a valid result earns zero. No points are awarded for All-In registration, merchandise purchases, or the Ironman label.
- 5Ties in Event Results: Identical raw event results share the same placement and each receives the full points for that place. The following placement is skipped. Example: two tied for first each get 10 points, and the next finisher is third.
- 6Overall Standings & Tiebreaks: Total championship points determine the overall standings. Break an overall points tie in this order: most event wins; then most 2nd-place finishes; then most 3rds, 4ths, and 5ths. If still tied, compare head-to-head results in events the tied competitors both entered. If the tied leaders still cannot be separated, hold a sudden-death Rotator Cup rematch at the awards (one attempt each, equal rest, same Mug and fill level, longest valid time wins; a competitor may use either arm but must choose one before his attempt and cannot switch during it; repeat on a tie). If a tied competitor cannot safely lift the Mug with either arm, use a witnessed high-card draw instead — a standard deck shuffled in view, one card per man, redrawing equal high cards until one winner remains. Aces are high; rank order is Ace, King, Queen, Jack, 10 down to 2. No one is pressured to lift the Mug while injured.
- 7Rotator Cup Eligibility: A competitor with a valid recorded result in at least one earlier scored event may enter the Rotator Cup for championship points at no additional charge. Everyone else may try the Mug for free, but their attempt is exhibition only — not recorded as an official score, not included in Rotator placement, worth no points, and no effect on the championship.
- 8Saturday Score Finalization: Outstanding scores must be submitted by the end of the final official Rotator Cup attempt on Saturday evening. A 30-minute review and dispute window then opens for the Commissioner to verify pending scores, correct documented recording errors, and resolve challenges. A correction during this window does not create a new attempt or an unearned result. The Mug is awarded only after the Commissioner closes review and marks the standings final.
- 9Ironman: Sign up for every scored event and you'll earn the Ironman label — a badge of honor recognizing the full slate. It's recognition only; the Ironman label does not add any points to your championship total.
- 10Pending Scores: Submitted scores stay Pending until the Commissioner approves them.
- 11Conduct: Sportsmanship is mandatory. Trash talk is essential.
