However, the problem still lies in regional and state tournaments. Our organization started using the red book this year (apparently, they had their own set of mechanics before), but many other organizations use FED, or a hybrid version of their own. I've heard that some confusion abounds at the tournament level. However, it helps that the later rounds of tournaments are run as 3-man, so most have to learn the mechanics for 3-man together.
