				| 
 |  
				| Sign up here for a 4 or 5 player version of this variant.  I will decide whether it is 4 or 5 player when I see how many entrants there are - 25 needed for 5 player. 
 The aim is the same as in the 3 player tournament currently underway.  That is to score as close as possible to 25 points without going over.
 
 However, I will be tweaking the scoring a bit.
 
 1) Exactly 8 points after round 3. 5 points
 2) Exactly 25 points after round 6. 10 points
 3) Exactly 24 points after round 6. 6 points
 4) Less than 24 points after round 6. 3 points
 5) An additional 6 points to be shared among those who score exactly 25 points, if any.
 6) Score for over 25 - Nil (but it may help your overall SBW percentage!)
 
 These changes are to address issues with the 3 player tournament, in particular where  the score has been the same for 3 players scoring exactly 25, as for 3 players going bust.
 1) is to give an aim in the early rounds.
 5) is to give an additional incentive to stopping your opponents from getting 25.
 
 Finally, on a different point, rseulow has asked me to automatically include him in all my Amun Re tournaments.  If anyone else wishes me to do that please pm me - but be careful, you may end up in a wierd variant!

 Or, you might end up in a tournament when you are going away if you forget to tell Gaditus..

				| I'm in. Sounds confusing, but not as much as the rules of any good German game. |  |

				| How about 100 points if you score exactly 25 points after round 3?   
 Anyway, I'll pass this one, too busy with SBW at the moment. Sounds interesting, though.
