IMO these are the best rules I've come across, haven't come across a better set of rules. It's a more standardized rule set for more competitive people, takes out all those crappy "NBA Jam" type rules like death cup etc.
-No "On Fire" or "Heating Up"
-No "Islands"
-No Fingering or Blowing
-No "Shoot again if the ball rolls back to you"
-No Death Cup
Regulation
-Cups are PULLED once made (helps makes for no "explosions" etc, all that lame "NBA Jam" %%*)
-Bounces count as 2 cups, Blocking is allowed
-If both partners make a cup on the same turn, they get both balls back to shoot
-Automatic re-racks at 6, 3, 2 (straight line) and 1. Re-racks are automatic and can occur during a teams turn. (ex. One partner shoots first on a 7 cup and makes it, his partner gets to shoot next on a touching 6-rack)
-When the last cup is made on either side game goes into "Rebuttal"
Rebuttals
-The team must "clear" all cups off the table to go into overtime
-Each partner gets to shoot until they miss
-If cups are cleared, you go into overtime
Overtime
-Both sides start with 3 cup rack
-Team who made the "first" last cup gets to shoot first
-When the last cup on either side is made, the game goes into 2nd rebuttal again which can go back into a 2nd overtime and so on.
I definitely urge anyone to try these rules, GUARANTEED you will become a better player because it forces you to be a better individual player without all those other BS crap rules. Very simple and straight-forward.

-2 re-racks per side
-Bounce = 2 cups
-Island = 2 cups
-Explosion (same cup) = 3 cups
-Explosion + bounce = 5 cups
-Rebuttal, losing team get a chance to make at least one cup, but if winning team makes both on that last cup, no rebuttal.
-Heating up/fire
-Celebrity shots are allowed
-Gentlemen touch
-Finger/blow are allowed (Defense)
I think that's about it...
Same exact rules we play with. You from CA?
