LAYOUT OF ABC WIDE WORLD OF SPORTS TEN-
The legendary King Arthur brandished a magic sword,
Excalibur, from which we take our company name. With this unique weapon in his hands, he could not be vanquished.
Although Excalibur Electronics can’t claim the magical secrets of Merlin, King Arthur’s court wizard, sometimes our patented technology may make it seem as if we could.

SCORING
There are 6 games in a match.

If a player wins his first point, his score is 15; on winning his second point, his score is 30; on winning his third point, his score is 40; on winning his fourth point he has won the game. The score of each point will be scrolling onscreen. A player must win a game by two points.
If each player has scored three points (40-40) the score is then called “deuce.” If a player thenscores 2 points consecutively, he wins the game. (The message
“DEUCE-A” (advantage) will appear on-screen when any player scores the next point after deuce.
