QCS Overview

Event: Bowling
Scoring: Total Score, 3 consecutive 10-frame rounds.
Notes: Scorekeepers will be critical here. Competitors may play as many practice rounds as desired, but the beginning of official Quad play must be determined before the start of the game (read as: if you happen to throw a 250 during a practice game, you cannot decide after the fact to count that game as your first of 3). Please also note the games must be consecutive. This is not your best 3 games of 7, or in Johnny's case the best in the last year.

Event: Darts
Scoring: Total rounds required to close 2 full Cricket boards, called shots (gentleman's rules). One round = 3 darts. 3 hits each on 20,19,18,17,16,15, and Bull equals one cleared board. Called shots are just that -- you must specify at what number you are shooting before you throw. Luck or "trash" hits will not be counted.
Notes: This is an approved systemic change from standard Quad rules that provides an even scoring system for competitors in multiple locations, with the secondary benefit of stopping both of my brothers and father from complaining each year that they "drew the toughest first round board", allegedly causing them to finish poorly. It is still to be determined how all three of their different boards are simultaneously the toughest.

Event: Disc Golf
Scoring: 18 Holes, all holes Par 3. Individual scores will be adjusted using calculations that provide unified scoring amongst separate courses based on the level of competition and margin of victory.
Note: There must be at least 2 competitors scored on a given course to generate a computerized ranking. If you have never played, or if you are Dave, let's be frank -- just skip it. You will probably suck.

Event: Pool
Scoring: Double elimination 8-ball tournament. Rankings by location will be adjusted based on level of competition. Minimum of 4 players required to submit official scores.
Notes: Official scorekeepers must validate the legitimacy of the competitors. No playing against toddlers or imaginary friends this year, Big John.
