Marshal
- Respect the fact that human error does occur. Whilst we all try to perfect what we do, there isn’t a competitor out there who can get thru an entire tournament without making any mistakes. Marshal is no different. Marshals try their best to be accurate with all of their decisions, but the reality has shown that even the best fall down. Please accept their mistakes the same way you would accept the mistakes from yourself.
- Marshal follows the strict guidelines on how to make their decisions based on the rules governing the tournament. Most of the issues occur due to competitors not being aware of the full set of tournament rules, however, issues which have not been outlined in the rules might arise during the course of the tournament as well. In such incidents the Marshal will make a new ruling based on the circumstances.
