🎃 Pickle Ticklers: The Haunted Court Halloween Challenge Court Mechanics 1. Dedicated Challenge Court – One of the three courts will be designated as the Challenge Court. The other two courts will remain open for regular Open Play. 2. Separate Queueing Stack – The Challenge Court will have its own dedicated queueing stack, separate from the regular Open Play stack. Players who wish to join the challenge must queue in the designated Challenge Court stack. 3. Game Format – Games are played to 7 points, with no deuce. 4. Five Consecutive Wins – A pair must win five consecutive games to qualify as a winning pair. Any loss resets their streak to zero. 5. Partners Stay Together – Pairs must keep the same partners while defending the Challenge Court. After losing, players return to the Challenge Court queue and may switch partners before challenging again. 6. Winning Pairs Retire – Once a pair achieves five consecutive wins, they are crowned a winning pair and return to the regular Open Play courts. 7. Two Official Winning Pairs Only – The first two pairs to complete five consecutive wins will be the official winners and receive the designated prizes. 8.
