7/15/2017 Topic: El Jimador Tequila $5,000 FOOSBALL Promotion! BillyBoy Administrator	UPDATE: There were also a couple e-mails sent to participants (on July 7) addressing the rules, and answering questions about the event structure. Here they are: --------------------------------------------------------- FUTBOLITO EL JIMADOR GAME RULES 1. Each game will be 10 minutes long or first team to 10. If there is a tie after 10 minutes we go to sudden death goal. 2. Flip a coin. A coin flip decides who serves the foosball to start the foosball game and the side of the table they want to be in. 3. After the first goal is scored, the team who was last scored on gets to serve the next ball. The foosball must be touched by a man before the ball goes into a goal for a legal goal to occur. 4. Any jarring, sliding, or lifting of the table shall be illegal. The penalty for violation of this rule: First Offense - whoever incurs on this illegal activity the other team will be in title to re serving the ball. Subsequent violation, the opposite team will be awarded one goal. 5. Dead Balls - If a foosball stops in the middle of two opposing team rods, the ball must be picked up and reserved. The serve goes back to the team that was last scored on. If a dead ball occurs on the defensive side of the table behind the defensive 2 bar, the defensive player must move the ball back into playing position. 6. Players are not allowed to retain the ball for more than 15 seconds. 7. Out of Play - If a ball comes off the table area or hits a top rail and comes back into the table area, the ball is ruled out of play and must be reserved by the team that was last scored on. 8. No time outs are allow during the game 9. The tournament system will be by direct elimination. 10. Teams are requested to be at the venue 15 minutes before their tournament starts. In case they fail to reach the venue on time, they will be immediately disqualified. 11. Players are expected to behave accordingly. In case they disrespect the rules of the game or the other team, they will be immediately disqualified. 12. Each game will have a ref to overlook the time of the game and make judgment calls when needed. MISCELLANOUS Q & A: Q: Will it be single or double elimination? A: Single Q: Will you have timers at each table to monitor the 10 minute time limit? A: I do not believe we will have visual timers, we will give a 5 min, 2 min and 1 min warning during the game. Q: How many qualifying teams will reach the final from each event? A: 8 Teams will reach the final. Top 2 from each tournament and will be seeded accordingly Q: If a team plays in an event and does not qualify can they play in the next qualifying event? A: As of right now you only have one shot, in the event we do not have enough teams to fill all the tournaments we will re-evaluate. Q: Will all the events be played on Tornado tables? A: Yes

8/8/2017 Topic: Grand Final of Chicago El Jimador Tourney BillyBoy Administrator	It looks like they're playing in someone's house. Wow: 1. The whole match dominated by goalies, since no one could control the ball on the 3 bar. I don't think there was a single goal scored from the 3. 2. Table rotating around on the floor. 3. Classic $5,000 own goal to end the tournament!
