FOULED BOARD_

A. Definition
A board is considered to be 'fouled' if the Director determines that one or more cards were misplaced in the board, in such manner that contestants who should have had a direct score comparison did not play the board in identical form.
B. Scoring the Fouled Board
In scoring a fouled board the Director determines as closely as possible which scores were made on the board in its correct form, and which in the changed form. He divides the score on that basis into two groups, and rates each group separately as provided in the regulations of the sponsoring organisation.

In some forms of team contests, the sponsoring organisation may prescribe a redeal (see Law 6).
