Rules
Contenders must only use the side of the course that is assigned to them and must not skip any part of the course or deliberately impede their opponent's progress. Contenders must start on their allocated whistles. Should they not complete part of the course then they may have to either restart the particular piece of apparatus or face a time penalty. The winner is the first participant to cross the finish line. In the event of a tie, a video replay will be shown. Should this prove inconclusive, then the Eliminator is re-run with both participants starting simultaneously. Should both participants fail to reach the top of the Travelator after numerous attempts, then the event is halted and after a short rest period, both contenders start again simultaneously from the same point.

Famous quotes containing the word rules:
“As no one can tell what was the Roman pronunciation, each nation makes the Latin conform, for the most part, to the rules of its own language; so that with us of the vowels only A has a peculiar sound.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Children can’t make their own rules and no child is happy without them. The great need of the young is for authority that protects them against the consequences of their own primitive passions and their lack of experience, that provides with guides for everyday behavior and that builds some solid ground they can stand on for the future.”
—Leontine Young (20th century)
“Learn hence for ancient rules a just esteem;
To copy Nature is to copy them.”
—Alexander Pope (1688–1744)
