Welcome to the CompetitionLabs Rules selection and creation section, which provides information on scoring tournaments based on simple points earned from a bet or win action, to constructing advanced scoring mechanisms involving multiple products or points boosters.
The following examples will help you to create a vast variety of tournament activity types and scoring mechanisms.
An example of the Rules system in CompetitionLabs is shown in the screenshot.
The icons you can use are:
Remove – removes the rule and any sub-conditions.
Add – lets you add an additional sub-rule or main rule in parallel to the one you are creating.
Edit – lets you edit text or numerical values.
Remove rule set – removes all the rules in the ruleset.
RULES LAYOUT
Creating a Competition with Contest Rules has a pre-determined basic layout. A Competition has to Start, Finish, Finalise, and Calculate points. You can preview a basic Rule set layout, and add additional Rule sets based on your needs.
RULE SET – Default layout
The basic default Rule sets are:
- Event Points – adds the event points to the leaderboard
- Start the contests – indicates when to Start the contests
- Finish the contests – indicates when to Finish the contests
- Finalise the contests – indicates when to Finalise the contests
These 4 Rulesets enable the Competition process.
RULE SET – Additional Rule sets
To enable more configurations and options, there are additional Rulesets in the Competition process. These custom rules can be added manually as needed:
- Custom points – add or subtract points from the leaderboard
- Entrant progression – contest entrants are members that match these conditions
- Cancel the contests – indicates when to cancel the contests
RULE SET – Visuals
If you add a Rule or a new Ruleset, you need to fill out all the fields to be able to proceed to the next step. The icons shown in the example indicate the status of the rule configuration.
Red indicates that these fields need to be filled in.
Green indicates that the Ruleset is filled in correctly and you can proceed.
Yellow indicates that some changes are required, or there are fields that need to be filled in. You cannot proceed when this icon is lit.
Blue shows that an additional Ruleset was added that is not mandatory for a contest to function. All the other colour indications also apply to this Ruleset.
Rules Sets can be added or removed as you wish.
However, a Competition must have Rules, so it is not possible to remove all the Rule Sets.
Modifying the default layout of the Contest Rule sets may disrupt the competition process, so test before going Live!
RULES CONDITIONS
Rules have a flow that makes your Competition possible. You can rank rules sections as 1, 2 and 3, e.g. if Properties is number 1, it determines sections 2 and 3 functions, e.g. Fact, Operator and Constant and Add or subtract points. If this additional feature exists only in the Points calculation Ruleset, then third-ranking appears in that Rule.
SCENARIO NUMBER 1
Properties → Fact, Operator and Constant → Add or subtract points.
SCENARIO NUMBER 2
Properties → Fact, Operator and Constant
Properties
Each Ruleset has the same properties:
- Conditional match – can be selected from ALL or ANY.
|
All or Any match conditions describe how rules interact. If the conditional match is set to ALL, then all rules must evaluate, if it is set to ANY, then only 1 rule has to evaluate. The first that matches all conditions will be triggered. This works on the principle of And / Or. By clicking And Condition, you add conditions with an AND that extend the rule.
2. Evaluation criteria – can be selected from TRUE or FALSE (works directly with Condition match)

EXAMPLE
Fact. Operator. Constant.
The Fact, Operator, and Constant depend on the Ruleset you have selected. Facts and operators are pre-created and can be selected from the drop-down list. Constants are either values that you need to enter, or are pre-created so you can select them from a drop-down list.
- fact
- operator
- constant

Add or Subtract points
This feature becomes available when a Rule Set called Custom points is added. It works directly with Conditions:
This feature lets you:
- Add points – when the rule set conditions are met, add X value points to the player.
- Subtract points – when the rule set conditions are met, subtract X value points from the player.
- Multiply event points by – when the rule set conditions are met, multiply event points for the player by X.
- Use my adjustment factor – use the pre-created adjustment factors to determine how many points will be given to a player when the rule set conditions are met.
