The [ext] European Cup is a grand prix style competition organised by the European Go Federation. It is composed of a series of tournaments organised in EGF member countries. Tournaments pay a fee to be part of the tour. Depending on the amount they pay, the tournament will offer different numbers of points to competitors. The player who accumulates the highest number of points over the course of the tour is declared the winner of the European Cup. Note that only European Nationals may earn points as of 2011. The first tour runs until the end of 2012.

Secret Rules

The points are distributed according to the tournament wallchart, so if 3 players are split on tiebreak by Nigiri, then so are the European Cup points.
