11 hours of Group Match Play (4-player groups, balanced  pairing, 4-2-1-0 scoring for 4-player group, 4-2-1 for 3-player group.) Scoring may change if matchplay adds an option.  11 hours means I will start the first round at 10am and I will start additional qualifying rounds up until 9pm. So we could have a qualifying round start at 8:59 p.m. and 59 seconds. Qualification will likely be between 25 to 30 games.
The top qualifiers will play in 1-hour finals. After I start it, then we will play as many rounds in a 1-hour time limit as possible. Again a new round can start at 59 minutes and 59 seconds.
Finals will be the top four qualifiers only. If 32 players or more participate in qualification then we will have a top eight finals.  All ties to qualify for finals will be played out.  All other players will be ranked according to their qualification finish.
Intentional delay of games by either player absence,cradling the ball, or delaying start will not be allowed. Blowing a game up is a good way to delay the start of the next round.
