2000 New Zealand Championships Results

(21st, 22nd & 23rd October, 2000, The Newmarket Returned Services Club, 3 Melrose Street, Newmarket, Auckland, New Zealand.)

32 players played in the 2000 New Zealand Diplomacy Championships. There were four rounds over three days, with the first two rounds on the first day and the one round per day on the second and third days. The Tournament was scored using the Detour98f scoring system, with all four rounds counting to a player's score. 

Round 2 on day 1 doubled as the teams competition. Players formed teams of three and the combined scores of the three team members for that round made up the team total, and the team with the highest total won the Triple Star Plate, the New Zealand Diplomacy Championship Teams Competition perpetual trophy.

After the second round their was a cut, with the top 21 players going into the Cup draw, and the rest of the field going into the Bowl draw. In rounds 3 and 4 the Cup players only played against fellow Cup qualifiers, and the players in the Bowl draw played on seperate boards. The players in the Cup draw were gauranteed to finish above the players in the Bowl competition. A new perpetual trophy, The New Zealand Diplomacy Championships Bowl, was awarded to the player who finished top of the Bowl competition.
