(1) Prominently post house rules that are clear in meaning and with criteria for reserving a series and the length of time players may reserve a series; and
(2) Ensure that the player meets the criteria in the house rules; and
(3) Contain all of the reserved series in a secure manner, clearly identifying it as permanently reserved, and store it in the immediate vicinity of the pull-tab area; and
(4) Not reserve a board or series for a player without play for more than seven days and not be more than a total reserve time of fourteen days; and
(5) Not have more than twenty-five boards or series permanently reserved for players at one time; and
(6) Maintain adequate accounting records showing the status of all reserved boards or series; and
(7) Not place reserved boards or series out for public play after the reserving player finishes playing them.
