3. In the event of a tie another round of the "Round the Clock" takes place between tied players.
4. In the event of a tie after 3 full rounds of "Round the Clock", "Nearest the Bull" with 3 darts wins.
5. In the event of a tie after a further 3 full rounds of "Nearest the Bull" with 3 darts, nearest the bull with 1 dart wins.
6. In the event of a tie after "Nearest the Bull" with 1 dart, then lots will be drawn for the group stages and positions will remain tied for the rest.
7. When throwing "Nearest the Bull":
   1. Anywhere in the inner bull (i.e. 50) counts as a hit and will not be measured.
   2. Anywhere in the outer bull (i.e. 25) and other areas of the board will be measured.
