Zombie Dice

2:30 PM
Zombie Dice
  • Maximum of 8 players per table.
  • If 8 or more players participate, players will be divided into two equal tables.
  • The top 2 scorers from each table advance to the final table.
  • Tied players will roll dice to determine their order.
  • Due to available space, the maximum number of players is 10.

Mmm! Brainnns!

On your turn, shake the cup, take three dice from it without looking, and roll them. Each one is a human victim. The red dice are the toughest. Green are easiest, and yellow are medium tough.

The dice have three symbols:
Brain – you ate your victim’s brain. Set your Brain dice to your left.
Shotgun – he fought back! Set your Shotgun dice to your right.
Footprints – your victim escaped. Keep your Feet dice in front of you. If you choose to roll again, you will re-roll these dice, along with enough new ones to bring the total to three. If you rolled three shotguns, your turn is over. Otherwise, you can choose to stop and score, or continue.

If you decide to stop, score 1 for each Brain you have, and put all the dice back into the cup. It’s the next player’s turn.

If you choose to keep going, leave all your Feet on the table. Unless all three of your dice are Feet, take enough random new dice from the cup to total three, and roll again. Whenever you roll, you will roll three dice at a time.

After you take new dice, you can’t decide to stop . . . you have to roll. Set aside Brains and Shotguns as above. If you are up to 3 Shotguns, your turn is over and you score nothing. Otherwise, you can stop and score, or take another roll . . .

Brrrains?

If you don’t have three dice left in the cup, make a note of how many Brains you have and put them all in the cup (keep the Shotguns in front of you). Then continue.

BRAAAINS!!!

Play until someone reaches 13 Brains. Then finish the round. Whoever has the most Brains at the end of that round is the winner. If there’s a tie, the leaders (only) play a tiebreaker round.

Munchkin

4:00 PM
Munchkin

The tournament will use the most recent edition of the Munchkin rules for the version being played.

  • Maximum of 8 players per table.
  • Minimum round time is 60 minutes.
  • A brief rules summary will be given before the tournament begins.
  • The player who reaches the Level Goal first wins.
  • If the game reaches the time limit, the player or players with the highest Level win, with ties resolved according to the tournament rules.

Player Responsibilities
Players must follow the rules interpretations and guidelines for play set forth by the Official Munchkin Tournament Rules, the TO, and other tournament officials. Players are expected to behave in a respectful and sportsmanlike manner at all times. Players are not permitted to waive penalties on behalf of their opponents. The judge must ensure that the appropriate penalty, if any, is imposed.

Judge Responsibilities
All judges have the responsibility to deliver fair, impartial rulings and to assist the TO and other tournament officials to ensure a smooth tournament. Judges must take action to resolve any rules infraction they notice, or that is brought to their attention, in a timely manner. If a judge uses more than one minute to make a ruling, he or she may extend the game time appropriately. The extra time must be clearly communicated and recorded immediately.

Round Time Limits
The minimum time limit used in this Munchkin tournament is 60 minutes. Prior to the beginning of the tournament a brief rules summary will be given. The time limit must be announced before play begins. When the round is over, the judge will direct all players to put their cards down. All play must immediately cease.

In-Game Breaks
If it is necessary to take a break during the game, a judge should be called first to ensure that the proper amount of time is given to the game (extending the time limit for that table as needed).

Tardiness
Players arriving at their seats after the game begins may be dealt into the game after all other players have taken a turn, effectively causing the tardy player to lose a turn. Players who fail to arrive at their seats after the above rule shall be excluded.

Cards Allowed
All cards in the decks must be genuine Munchkin cards. The version of Munchkin to be used must be announced before the Tournament begins.

Bookmarks, shirts, and other official SJ Games items which have Munchkin game rules are allowed, but it is the responsibility of the player who owns an item to bring the official rules for that item if they are not printed on the item itself.

Game Rules
THE T.O. IS THE FINAL AUTHORITY REGARDING CARD RULES AND INTERPRETATIONS.
Players who make an agreement about splitting treasure must follow the letter of that agreement after the combat. Neither the basic game rules nor the tournament rules enforce or regulate other deals made between players.

Cheating
Cheating will not be tolerated. The TO reviews all cheating allegations, and if he determines that a player cheated, the TO will assess the appropriate penalty up to and including expulsion from tournament. Mistakes happen and the TO will determine if any violation was intentional.

Unsportsmanlike Conduct
Judges, players, and officials must behave in a polite, respectable, and sportsmanlike manner. In addition, players must not use profanity, argue, harass, or otherwise act belligerently toward tournament officials, spectators, or one another.

Electronic devices will not be allowed to give bonuses at this tournament. Players must take their turns in a timely fashion. Taking a reasonable amount of time to think through game strategy is acceptable, but playing excessively slowly or stalling for time is not.

Determining a Game Winner
The player reaching Level Goal first is the Game Winner. In the case of a game halted due to the time limit, the player(s) with the highest Level is the Winner. There may be multiple Winners. Ties are broken in this manner: The total of combat bonuses equipped-highest is winner. Next will be total of bonuses from non one shot items in backpack.

Brad Crowell

Brad Crowell

Game Designer - Gridmaster

Brad Crowell grew up playing board games with his younger brother and single mother, which was a time he learned to play chess. As a result, he desired to create games for others to enjoy.

As a father, he would play games with his two daughters. They combined all the decks for Uno, Uno Spin, and Uno Attack for a nice game of "Ultimate Uno".

As a grandfather of 7 now, he hopes to share his joy of board games with the newest generation. What better way is there than to leave a creative legacy?

Brad earns a living through self-employment in the gig work industry. This allows him the opportunity to earn money anywhere he travels to introduce Gridmaster (in development since 2023) at conventions and game clubs. He hopes to find a publisher when he attends a convention in Dallas this upcoming November, thus fulfilling a life-long dream.

Brad will be running his new prototype game. It hasn’t been named yet, but he will be gathering suggestions and getting feedback at the con.
