TAB PROTOCOL

The Arkansas Diamond Tournament will abide by Stoa's Transparent Tabulation Policy and use Joy of Tournaments software with Stoa Tie-breaks.

Debate Events

Rounds 1 and 2 will be randomly paired. If there is an odd number of competitors, then the bye will be randomly assigned.

Teams will be club protected through Round 2; however, this may not be possible due to a disproportionate club size.

Rounds 3-6 will be power-matched. Necessary byes will be assigned to the low seed.
