UPDATE:  Kentucky JBQ will be changing to the new rules effective November 1, 2008.
[The new rules are now posted at http://nationaljbq.org/.]
Summary of changes:
  • Coach's Appeals have been eliminated.
  • Changes to coach's request for Judges' Ruling (See section XIII) :
    • Each team is allowed 2 requests for a Judges' Ruling.  
    • The head coach will have 30 seconds to state his request and reason..
    • After the request, the judges (without conferring) will use coins to indicate their votes to uphold or reverse the decision of the quizmaster.
    • If the vote is not unanimous, the judges will confer briefly among themselves and cast another vote.  This second vote need not be unanimous.
  • A point of order is to be used to correct a procedural error or call attention to a possible rule violation.  
    • During the "point of order," the coach should briefly state the basis (rule violation) of the request. (See section XII.A)
    • Use of a point of order to request a reconsideration of a quizmaster's ruling of correct or incorrect is a team foul. (See sections VII.6 and XII.A.6)
  • Each team is permitted three 30-second time-outs to use at any time during the entire match except when the Quizmaster has called "Question." Once the Quizmaster has started reading a question, no time-out is allowed until the completion of judging that question. (See  Section VI.A)
  • The quizmaster is encouraged to make an independent decision on each response. (See  Section XVI.A.16)
