Rules and Scoring: Cutthroat

Draft

  • Six team owners will each select five players each, in a snake style draft.
  • Please watch your spelling as there are some contestants with very similar names.
  • If any contestant shows up midway through the game, they are given to the team that loses all of their players first. Retroactive points do not count however, only once they appear on the team do their scores start tabulating.
Scoring and Points
The rules will mostly be similar to last year, with the exception of competition points, which we need to change a bit. Making and winning the finals have been upped fromm last year. And as we don't know the exact rules Cutthroat will be using, we might tweak some things after the first episode.

Competition Points (awarded per episode)
+1 point for each week your person stays on the show
+1 point for winning the weekly Challenge (each individual on the winning team gets this)
+1 point for being sent into the Gulag
+1 point for winning the Gulag
+1 point for winning a Pardon

Bonus Points (awarded per episode)
+1 point for hooking up (kissing on the lips, making out, groaning sounds under covers, etc.)
+1 bonus point if you own both contestants who hooked up
+1 point for getting into a physical fight
+1 point for "crazy (ass tirade)"
+1 point for going to the hospital
+1 point for throwing up
+1 point for crying

Finals Points
+5 for making the finals
+7 for being the winner

Any subjective calls will be cleared up by arguing and then voting. We can also reference some of the points laid out last year to clarify things. Although maybe it would be nice to wipe the slate clean and start from "What qualifies as a crazy ass tirade in Cutthroat?" Below were the details laid out last year for some of the subjective rules:
  • It has to be shown or be provable on camera, then from there we can vote/argue about if something constituted a hook up.
  • No "extras" or "behind-the-scenes" specials or aftershows or "web clips" don't count.
  • You are awarded one bonus point for each instance. If Veronica hooks up with Cyrus and MJ during the episode, that's +2. However, if she hooks up with Cyrus over and over that episode, that's just +1. If they hook up again next episode though, then they can get more points.
  • Hook ups aren't just kissing, or a congratulatory peck. There should be some level of lust and passion, some measure of potential hookupability. Example, Laurel and Pete's Truth or Dare kiss in Meet the Meat counts as a hook up.
  • Examples of a crazy ass tirade was Eve going bananas and knocking things around the house after getting sent in against Kelly Anne, or Katie going nuts after the plunger incident in her bed.
  • Physical fights, do they include wrestling? I say yes, like if two people engage in an attempt to do physical harm, even if it's not actually punching/kicking, that's a point.
Arbitration Details
Majority wins the vote-offs (which must be done before the next episode). If there are five owners voting, that should be easy. However, if two separate owners have to abstain because it's their contestants involved, then it's four voters. Ideally a 3-1 majority would take it but if there is a tie, then no points are rewarded. Try to be objective if you can, when voting. And we can cite previous precedent or whatever in our arguments. No bribing though!

I'm running my own league on this and there have been some disputes regarding pts. Would Ty be considered in the "fight" and rewarded pts for getting punched by Adam? Also, do you consider Jenn tearing up upon TJ return and Mandi tearing up after getting knocked down "crying" or do there need to be flush tears?
