The Triple Play Board Game Challenge (BGC) for 2014 is beginning to take shape. We have a few scoring and rules changes for the upcoming year.
The new scoring will be standardized. All tournaments will be worth the same points.
1st Place – 7 points
2nd Place - 5 points
3rd Place – 4 points
4th Place – 3 points
5th & 6th Place – 2 points (only if more than 4 players at final table)
All other participants will earn 1 BGC point.
The rules stay mostly the same. There will be 12 tournaments this coming year. The overall winner will receive a $60 Triple Play Gift Certificate. The one change is that we will be counting only your best 9 results in the final standings. Cannot make a tournament? Well don’t worry it will not count against you.
The schedule will also be more regular this year. The third Saturday of every month there will be a BGC Tournament. There will be a couple exceptions we know of right now in August and next December. Please be sure to check the site for any changes due to unexpected circumstances.
Cost of each tournament is still only $5. TP Gift certificates will be awarded for 1st place and one random participant. These will be based on attendance.
So the first three tournaments are already planned.

[glow=red,2,300]Saturday March 15th – Dominion[/glow]
We would love to hear any suggestions you might have for future games. I will be posting a thread to discuss just this subject, so being watching for that.
Thanks to everyone that participated in the 2013 BGC. Looking forward to another fun, competitive year of Board Gaming at Triple Play!
thanks
