Tab Procedure & Protocol
1. Joy of Tournaments will be used for Tab, following normal Stoa protocol.

3. Tab will power-match to the best of their ability, but in the event of late ballots turned in, lag-power-matching will be used instead.
4. Depending on club sizes, club-protect may be broken in later preliminary rounds.
