Rules refers to the policies and procedures governing gameplay at tournaments. (Sets of rules are sometimes called "formats", a usage that can create confusion with the different concept of tournament format.)
The following rule sets are in common, current nationwide use:
- NAQT rules, sometimes with modifications to the rules about timed play
- ACF rules, sometimes with the modification of adding powers
- PACE rules (by far the least common at local tournaments, but prominently used at the NSC)
The modifications mentioned are common; other modifications also occur.
Many statewide organizations, leagues, etc. have their own rules.
