This year, the tournament will feature a 2-hanchan format, where the top 4 by aggregate score will qualify to a finals table. Unfortnately, I cannot attach PDF files to a forum post.

The tournament will use 2-hanchan per player, followed by a single hanchan finals table. A combined score between the two hanchan will be used to determine the top 4 players, who qualify to the finals.
Initially, all tables are labeled 1, 2, 3, 4. For the second hanchan, each table is reassigned A, B, C, D, where 1 -> A, 2 -> B, 3 -> C, 4 -> D.
This ensures: No one plays the same person twice in the 2 hanchans. Likewise, all players are guaranteed 2 hanchans. The initial seating for the numbered tables is determined by random draw.
Rotation into the second hanchan as follows:
1. Winner stays at current table.
2. Second place to table to the right.
3. Third place to table across.
4. Fourth place to table to the left.
Individual game rules: (Tenhou.net with some modification)
Japanese mahjong rules – Standard Ari-Ari
Agari-renchan. Tenpai without win = Wind rotation
If Agari-renchan, Honba reset if rotation
Abortive draw =//= Wind rotation + 1 Honba (just to be clear)

One red-5 per suit
Double ron allowed, and Triple ron results in abortive draw
