Diamond 24 - 12 Good Game [GG Clan Tourney]

[Thrutchy]

Rule changes in the middle of a competition can be destructive. Take a look at what happened in the last World Cup in the middle of the qualifiers when a few ST's didn't qualify. Some were asking for a rule change, then there was a rule change, then others saw that rule change as harming their chances, and then a compromise was settled on. All of this was probably not good for the tournament.

In this case, you are probably right. This seems like just a clarification of the rules, since it wasn't clear what would happen when the lower time limit was hit multiple times.
