Sorry, I haven't been able to post the IV one. Work's got me bad.

Rules Here: Total Points cannot exceed 15. Mastery is required. A synergy team (3-5 members, all with character synergy) gets (-2) points for their run (I.E., a 9 point synergy team only counts as 7). A synergy duo gets (-1) points, and a synergy solo gets (-0.5) points.

Link to past thread (FFT)

First person to achieve the lowest score for the tier challenge gets a special flair.

Honorary Keeper flair will be given to participants who achieved the lowest point to (lowest point 2 points), or the lowest synergy point to (lowest point 1 point). If the lowest points happen to be a synergy team, the flair goes to lowest ~ lowest 2.

TC Veteran flair will be given to participants who achieve 7.75 points or less, but do not meet the requirements for Honorary Keeper.

The Galuf Addendum: Players utilizing Galuf will be registered for a minimum of 6.0 points. This means even if your run totals 3.5, it'll be registered as 6.0. If it totals more, then it'll be registered as whatever you ran. This rule was created due to Galuf being able to solo almost any boss in the game.
