A warning and then penalties will be given to players not abiding by this rule. Keep in mind that 30 seconds is a LONG time. If you CAN'T choose and execute your shot in 30 seconds, please do NOT sign up for this tourney.
The number of prizes and places paid will be determined by the amount of entries per bracket.
