Event

The official Rafting pictogram for Marble League 2022, designed by JMR.

In Rafting, teams of 4 sail down a stream of water in rafts, 1 at a time. The rafts have semicircle depressions in them to hold the marbles.

Each team has two attempts to produce a successful journey down the course, only using their second chance if they get stuck on the first. If a marble falls out of the raft, the team is penalized per dropped marble. If a team gets stuck twice, they are awarded a DNF without any score, and are ranked by how far down the course they reached.

A team's final score is their time required to cross the finish line, plus 1 second per penalty. The team with the lowest score wins. Ties are broken by total penalty count.
