We are also playing a Cuppers (inter-colleagiate team) tournament. Previous Nick Ashley tournaments were held in Michaelmas 2020, Easter 2021, Easter 2024 and Michaelmas 2024. The end point of the 2024 Lent competition will be Friday 21st of March.
This competition was open to current members of Cambridge University Tiddlywinks Club. Note that the initial ladder order is the active players in inverse of the end state of the previous tournament.

It has been decreed that rule 2 means that a player may challenge anyone up to three places above at the time of the challenge, but that rule 6 applies to the position of the players at the time the match is completed. Rule 8 is note entirely clear on this, but it allows an individual player to jump a large number of places in a single match, by delaying a game with a prolific opponent. Please do not game the system (or refuse a challenge if you feel your challenger is doing so when you already have a challenge in flight). Alternative solutions may require better tracking of when challenges are placed (and thus their ordering) than we seem to have.
Players may ask to borrow equipment from the Club if necessary (ask Emmy) — but must promise to return equipment at the following CUTwC meeting. Matches do not need to be played on full-size tables — but can take place in student rooms, College bars, wherever convenient. Players should sportingly decide umpiring decisions themselves, or toss a coin to adjudicate if it really is too close to decide. Players should note that 2 games of singles can be played in 1 hour.
