There will be 5 games on the finals weekend. It will be 1500 point games. We will be using the "Inch Okay" (インチOK!)System. It works as follows: Every player at the start of the tourney chooses one of three options: 1. CM 2. Inches 3. dochidemo (either)
Then depending on the matchup, it will be decided which measuring system players will use. Baring in mind that since this is Japan, CM will be the default. -> CM - CM = CM CM - Inch = CM CM - Dochidemo = CM Dochidemo - Dochidemo = CM Dochidemo - Inch = Inch Inch - Inch = Inch
(Hope that makes sense!) Someone please make this Japanese for us. Cheers, Brindley
