League Points (LP) system

For this league, total score accumulation with uma will be utilised. See below for details:

Uma:

1st 2nd 3rd 4th
+15 +5 -5 -15

Score:

For every 100 points above 25000 at the end of the game, 0.1 LP will be awarded.
Likewise, for every 100 points below 25000 at the end of the game, 0.1 LP will be deducted.

Example
Player Final score Position
A 35000 1st
B 30000 2nd
C 18500 3rd
D 16500 4th

Player A will get +10 LP for having 10000 points above 25000 and +15 LP for achieving first place, for a total of +25 LP.

Player B will get +5 LP for having 5000 points above 25000 and +5 LP for achieving second place, for a total of +10 LP.

Attending the 9th and 10th session: +10 LP for the next league.

LP will be halved after the 8th session of the league.

The winner of the Main League will be awarded $40 vouchers which will be presented in the next tournament.

 

Side League

The main league consists of 10 sessions which will have two side leagues consisting of 5 sessions each. In each of the side league, the same LP system will be used, and the winner of each side league will be entitled to fee waivers for one session.

Bonuses from the previous league will not be added to the Side League. Also, LP from the Side League will not be halved after the 8th session.

However, penalties from chombo will still be deducted from the Side League.

 

Attendance Points (AP) system

The attendance points system for this league will be as such:

1st 2nd 3rd 4th Sit-out/ Spectator Missing sessions
+8 +7 +6 +5 +5 -5

All player’s attendance points will be reduced to 10% at the start of the WRC league. Newcomers, this is the best opportunity to get higher AP than the veterans to avoid sitting out for your first game!

This ruleset is the same ruleset used in WRC 2017.

This ruleset is the same as the previous league’s ruleset with the Aka Dora removed.

That’s all for the Aka-Nashi league! Be sure to attend so that you do not miss out on all the fun!

Feel free to ask any questions regarding this league’s rules if you’re unsure.
