Rules Pack for 2024 Season
(Updated 12/06/2023)
The Iowa Blood Bowl Championship Circuit is a series of NAF sanctioned tournaments taking place in the Upper Midwest area across 2024. The circuit will primarily consist of the various events taking place at Critical Hit Games in Iowa City, IA.
The Region:
The IABBCC Region will consist of tournaments in Iowa or those taking place in any nearby area that are not a part of an existing tournament series.
The Timeline:
The IABBCC season will run from January 1st to December 31st.
The Final rankings and awards will be announced at the end of the year and then posted on the Three Die Block Facebook page and the IABBCC Website
Iowa Blood Bowl Championship Circuit Events:

Tournament Series Scoring:
Coaches will receive points for each tournament they attend based on the following:
All participants receive 1 point per tournament attended, regardless of their results
In a tournament with ten coaches or more, the top ten finishers will receive points based on their final position. A 1st place finish will be worth 10 points, a 2nd place finish will be worth 9 points on down to a 10th place finish being worth 1 point.
Should there be fewer than 10 coaches, the top coach’s score would be equal to the total number of participants and the rest would decrease as usual.
As a bonus, each finisher gets +1 point per 10 attendees at the event beyond the 1st 10 (Example: in a 32 coach tournament participants would gain an additional 2 points)
Organizer bonus: For organizers who do not play in their tournament, they will receive 1 point +1 per 10 (rounded down, minimum of 1) coaches in the tournament.
Coaches will gain 1 additional point for winning an award during an event. These would be for Most Touchdowns Scored, Most Casualties Dealt, and for Best Painted. For purposes of calculating these bonus points, we would not use the ‘share the wealth’ system (even if that system is used to give out the actual awards).
Overall Ranking
Coaches will be awarded points based on their performance in each IABBCC event that they participate in. Only the Top 4 tournament points total of each player will be tallied for the purpose of awards.
There is no minimum number of tournaments that a participating coach must attend, however in order to receive an award, the Coach must be a member of the NAF.
Tiebreakers:
Tiebreakers for any award are in the following order:
1. Most First Place Finishes
2. The Coach who used the most different races during the series
3. The tied coach’s head to head record in the seasons IABBCC matches
4. Overall cumulative score for the season (counts all events)
5. Most event attended for the year
6. Tournament Series Organizers Discretion
Prizes:
There will be awards for the top three finishing coaches during the season. There will also be the following additional awards:
The Coach with the Most Total Casualties
The Coach with the Most Total Touchdowns
The Top Stunty Coach

How to get tournament approval:
For Inclusion in the series, the tournament organizer must submit their request to join at least 30 days before their tournament date. Priority approval is given to those who give the most notice for a given weekend. Please make the request either by messaging Three Die Block on Facebook or by email: iowabbcc@gmail.com
For a tournament to be approved, it must be approved by the NAF and should not be on the same, the previous, of the following weekend of another pre-approved tournament unless the competing tournaments are separated by a significant distance. The distance between the tournaments, and the time between tournaments is a guideline, not a rule, and can be reviewed by the Tournament Series Organizer on an individual basis.

Approved. You might want to change the part with "We do not expect that this will be an official NAF tournament Series" to "This is an NAF sanctioned open Tournament Series"  |
