Rules

The 2009 North American Fujitsu Cup is being held on the Kiseido Go Server on November 22-23, 2008. The event consists of sixteen players invited from Canada, Mexican and the United States and is run as a four-round elimination event. Players are seeded into the tournament grid by their current AGA rating. Game conditions:

In the event of a game finishing without result, for example due to triple ko, the game will be replayed. Player's clocks will be reset so that they split the remaining time in the round evenly, with 25 stones/7 minutes Canadian overtime. If there is less than one hour remaining in the round, players will player a 30 minute sudden death match without overtime.
