    playing area shall be the official clock during the tournament.

    B. SCORING SYSTEM

    A Player is credited 1 point for a win, .5 for a draw and 0 for a loss

    1. Win/Lose

    Three main ways to win or lose a game: checkmate, resignation and timeout.

    a. Checkmate

    One of the most common ways to end a chess game is by checkmate. This happens when one of the
    players is threatening the other king and it cannot move to any other squares, cannot be protected by
    another piece and the checking piece cannot be captured.
    If all of these conditions are met, the attacking player wins via checkmate.

    b. Resignation

    If one of the players believes that he or she will be checkmated soon and resigns instead of playing out
    the game.

    c. Timeout

    If a player run out of time, he/she automatically lose the game if the opponent has the minimum
    material required to force a checkmate. If a player's opponent does not have the minimum amount of
    material for checkmate and you run out of time, the game is a draw—even if you were winning.

    2. Draw

    a. Stalemate

    A position in which the player to move has no legal move but is not in check.

    b. Insufficient material

    The game is declared a draw whenever both sides do not have the "sufficient material" to force a
    checkmate.

     King vs King
     King + minor piece vs King
     Lone King vs all the pieces (Insufficient Material vs Timeout)
     King + two knights vs King
     King + minor piece vs King + minor piece

    c. Repetition

    Threefold-repetition rule - If a position arises three times in a game.

    d. Agreement

    When both players decide they want to draw the game, it's a draw by agreement. However, if a player
    offering a draw got rejected by the opposing player and win, the game is considered a draw.

    II. IRREGULARITIES AND PENALTIES

    A. Mobile phones and other means of electronic communications are strictly prohibited inside the
    playing area. A player who will violate this rule shall lose his/her game.

    B. A team whose member is giving unsolicited advice or assistance to his teammate while the games are
    in progress shall lose their match.

    III. COLLATILLA
    A. All other matters not covered in the rules shall be decided by the Organizer (Chess Tournament
    Committee) reserves the right to amend or alter any provision of the above mentioned Rules and
    Regulation for the success and interest of the tournament.
