Baggo" and Target Toss Pro : Bags General Rules :

Although there is absolutely no need to know any of the rules below , as Target Toss Pro
is about the simplest video arcade game ever to be created, with the game keeping track
of player scores and players turns automatically, Target Toss Pro can be played by just
about anyone, male or female from 3 to 93, the following is a brief explanation of Bags
or "Baggo" rules and play, with exceptions for specific TTPB game rules, as noted below :

Target Toss Pro Bags, also known in real life as "Bags", "Baggo", "Bean Bag Toss", "Corn Toss" or "Cornhole"
is a game in which players take turns pitching small bags (in real life filled with corn, sand or beans) into a raised
platform with a hole, until the first player or team reaches a score of 21. A game consists of players taking turns
pitching 4 bags each per inning, with two innings (top and bottom innings). A bag in the hole scores 3 points,
while one on the platform scores 1 point. In the Target Toss Pro: Bags version, a shot that lands in the hole
without touching any the sides in a "Perfect Pro" shot  which scores 5 points.

Singles or Doubles (Team) Play
Target Toss Pro Bags (and Baggo, Cornhole and Corn Toss) can be played as either team doubles or singles.
In doubles play, two contestants are partners against another team of two contestants. up to eight teams consisting
of two players each. In single or two player mode, contestants competes either against the computer or against each
other. In four player to sixteen player modes, initial teams consist of two player each, who then compete with each other,
then the next team goes on and so forth, the winners of the first heat then go onto head-to-head play for the next round
until there is a single, final championship match.

Game Innings
Every Target Toss Pro Bags match is broken down into two innings of play. During each inning there is a top and a
bottom round of play. In doubles play, the top of an inning is completed when both contestants pitching from the first
cornhole platform pitch all 4 bags; the bottom of the inning is completed when the remaining contestants (pitching
from the other cornhole platform) pitch all 4 bags. In singles play, the top of an inning is completed when the first
contestant pitches all 4 bags; the bottom of the inning is completed when the remaining contestant pitches all
4 bags. An inning is never completed until all contestants pitch all four bags.

Value of the Bag
Bag In-The-Hole - A bag in-the-hole (or Hole-In) is a bag which is thrown through the hole in the cornhole platform or otherwise comes to rest inside the cornhole platform (knocked in by another player or otherwise falls in). A bag in-the
hole has a value of three points, or sixteen points when playing to final score of 104. A bag in the hole that goes in
perfectly is awarded five points. There is also a separate, special numerical score given for each toss depending
on the accuracy of the shot in Target Toss Pro : Bags, in addition to the standard Bags score of up to 21

Bag In-The-Count - A bag that is not in-the-hole but lands with any portion of the bag resting on the cornhole platform
is in-the-count (sometimes called on-the-board). A bag in-the-count has a value of one point. For a corn bag to be
in-the count, it must not touch the ground or any other portion of the court prior to coming to rest on the cornhole
platform. If a bag touches the ground before coming to rest on the platform, it is a foul.

Bag Out-Of-The-Count - A bag which comes to rest anywhere except in-the-count or in-the-hole is out-of-the-count
and has no scoring value.

Delivery of Bags During Play
In doubles play, the first side of contestants alternate pitching bags until they have thrown all four bags, then the
remaining contestants continue to alternate in the same manner until all four bags are delivered and the inning
completed. Delivery in singles play is handled in the same manner with each of the two contestants alternating
their pitching of corn bags until all four corn bags have been pitched completing the inning.

Pitching Rotation During the Game
The contestant who scored in the preceding inning shall pitch first in the next inning. If neither pitcher scores,
the contestant or team who pitched last in the preceding inning shall pitch first in the next inning.

Length of the Game
The match shall be played until the first team of contestants reaches (or exceeds) 21 points at the end of an inning.
However, many play by the rule which states if you go over 21 you go back to 15. The winning team does not need to
win by two or more points. The match shall be played until the team of contestants reaches (or exceeds) 21 points at
the completion of an inning. The winning team does not need to win by two or more points. The match can never end in
the middle of an inning. Thus, if a team that pitches first reaches or exceeds 21 points, the game can not end until the
other side is allowed to pitch all of their bags and the inning is completed. If the match is tied at 21 or more at the end
of an inning, play continues until one team or the other achieves a higher score at the end of an inning and wins the
match. The game shall be played to 21 unless a team scores 7 or more points at the end of an inning before their
opponents score any points. It this case, the team that scores 7 or more points wins the match.
