Players in WAML will be designated to have earned the rank of 1-dan. At the end of a season, players are then awarded dan points according to their power ranking. 500 points are necessary to earn the rank of 2-dan. 1000 more for 3-dan, doubling for each successive dan level. | Players in WAML will be designated to have earned the rank of 1-dan.

Points will be awarded by dampening the power rating with a padding value of 100 per league division, ensuring players earn more dan points in order to cover for the exponential rise in points required to earn a promotion. | |||

Should a 5-player group complete individual matches, but not the whole group, the levy shall be 30% of the amounts above per player per missed match. Any such group missing matches with players present at the deadline on IRC will not be penalized and will be proposed alternate matches with alternate players. Substitutes will earn a token +20P and 20 dan points for covering, minimizing repeat participation as much as possible. | |||

== WAML Competitive Rulings == | |||
WAML management may impose penalties, adjustments or suspensions for violations at the sole discretion of management. Such decisions will be made public with the relevant circumstances explained in order to maximize trust from participants. The basic rule applies: should something really nasty happen, the fact that it isn't written in the rules does not preclude us from acting. | |||
