1. A team game has three teams of two, or two teams of three, and a judge.

2. The judge selects an empty table and warns potential sitters that the table is wanted for a team game.

3. The team members seat themselves alternately by team. Members of a team have the same avatar.

4. When the judge is satisfied that team members are seated correctly, the judge sits in as teal and the game begins.

5. The judge does not make any attacks during the game unless agreed upon by all teams.

6. The judge records the points earned by team members, compiles the team scores, and posts them to a suitable repository: for example, the judge's own profile page.

7. The "season" begins with all team members with elo's at 1500. The season ends before any team member reaches the top 25 of rank-from-rating. The new season is begun with a new account issed to each team member, or Ryan sets their old accounts to 1500.
