Hi all,
I hail from the far eastern shores of Singapore. We are currently going through our regionals, which consist of a combination of melee and joust to determine overall champion. It is run over two weekends.
During the melee tournament, only after the final four was announced, the T.O decided to announce that the following weekend's joust tournament carries a 1.5x points weightage compared to melee for overall champion calculation.
When a friend of mine enquired further, the T.O claims its the Distributor's ruling.
Can someone from FFG clarify this? I am puzzled as I can't locate anywhere in the tournament rules about having different weightage for overall points calculation. Is this even legal in the first place? What's the reasoning behind favouring one format over the other?
Any players reading this have have similar experienced elsewhere? Any feedback guys?
Thanks all!
