TIE BREAKING:- In the event of ties, prize money will be shared. However, this does not apply to the first place in the Terafinal and the title of STRAT. In the event of a tie for first place in the Terafinal, the tie will first be broken by using sum of progressive scores. The winner will receive the first prize of £2,000, the cup and the title of Strat. If progressive scores fail to break the tie, then a game will be played with 10 minutes each on the clock. Colours for this game will be decided by lot. If that game is drawn, a 5 minute game will be played with reversed colours. If that is drawn, the title will be decided by lot.
