Question
Scenerio:
Top 7, tied 1-1 and the game is "suspended" due to bad weather.
Question:
Exactly what happens now? What happens to the stats for each player, do they count?
Does the game get continued from the 7th, at a leter date? Or doe sthe game get started over from scratch?
Thank you,
Jason K.
Jason,
Player stats count, but the game goes into the books as unplayed. It will be rescheduled and played at a later date.
In some cases (such as game suspended due to darkness or curfew reasons) the game will be finished the following day. The reasons that some games are finished the next day and some are suspended and ended are unknown to me.
