Money Matches:
Entrants are welcome to hold personal money matches during the tournament at their own discretion and their own rules. These are not officially sanctioned by Versus.
The Tournament Officials may act as a third-party arbiter between the players on request. Requests must be made before a match begins. The T.O. will take both players' money before the match, referee during the match, and give it to the winner after the match is over.
Versus cannot interfere with the personal disputes between members if an arbiter was not requested. If a player refuses to pay their part on a money match, that is a poor reflection of their character and we would suggest never playing them again in a money match.

Other Rules:
- Sets are based on double-elimination brackets which may be seeded at the Tournament Officials' discretion.
- Excessive Stalling is banned. Stalling will be handled on a case-by-case basis. The most obvious stalling occurs when a player continually avoids attacking or being attacked for several minutes at a time.
- Unnecessary delays are discouraged. Time between matches should be held to a maximum of 1 minute each. Also, please be prompt to matches. Excessive delay will cause an automatic loss of one match. Further delay will forfeit the set.
- In the case of any disputes, please consult the Tournament Officials for assistance.
- The top 8 players will compete in best of 5 sets instead of best of 3.
- The Tournament Officials reserve the right at any time to make anyone leave the premises of the tournament.
