Time Warp Briefing
This is a simple game, run like a standard course. The Scoring Basis is Time, Plus Faults, Less Bonus.
There is an opportunity on this course to earn a 50 point bonus which is subtracted from the Time, Plus Faults part of the dog’s score: if the handler can stay on the opposite side of the containment line through your dog’s performance of obstacles #12 through #15, then the dog will earn a 50 point bonus. Note that the bonus is lost for any performance faults in the distance challenge.
Otherwise, it’s follow the numbers, keep the bars up, and hit the paint.
