Howdy Lanky!
The rules are in the readme you get when you download the zip file for the map. Here they are:
1. The object is to get oneself blown as far downrange as possible.
2. When the Referee hosts the game, you must join the red team. You may use any character for this tourney,
EXCEPT SANCHEZ
2A. Players must wait in the blue box until called. When the referee is talking, please keep quiet.
3. You will get three blasts, taken in turn with the other players. The best of your three is counted.
4. Only one stick of tnt is to be used per blast.
5. When a player is called , they will come forward, the referee will throw an (unlit) stick of tnt. The player will pick it up and go to the white ring. The Player will wait for the "Ready" signal from the referee, (a gunshot) and then light and throw the tnt and get into the position they think will make the blast blow them furthest.
6. A "Foul Blast" (hehe, I just couldn`t resist it) will be committed and that blast forfeited if;
a) The tnt is outside of the white ring at detonation. The player can be anywhere but it must be the force of the blast that sends them downrange
b) The player uses more than 1 stick of tnt.
c) The player lands with any part of his body off the white landing area.
d) I don`t like you. hehe
e) The player doesn`t die in the blast or on landing
7. After each blast, the referee will measure and say the distance. IMPORTANT! don`t press space to respawn until after the ref has said your distance. Please keep quiet during this bit.
8. The measurement is taken from the closest point to the white ring. (This does not includes the pistol the injun drops when killed)
9. Style points were going to be given for midair taunts, however, testing revealed they just couldn`t be heard over the noise of the tnt. Shame.
10. The referee uses highspeed conveyers to get around the level quickly, players must not use them.
11. Don`t go walk downrange, thats where the tnt is kept and obviously it has to be strictly controlled. If you do hold more than 1 stick, tell the referee.
12. The referees decision is final. So there, but sexual and fiscal favours may be considered.
13. The idea is to have some fun. In testing, we had a stonking good laugh, hope you all do too!
Note#1. The lines on the landing area are eight feet apart. In testing a score of 14.6 was acheived. However, the range has been changed for this final version.
Note#2. Single player is now available on this level, for you to practice.
Note#3. I`m sorry this file has gone on a bit, the object is to have fun and the more the merrier!
Note#4. Attention is drawn to rule 6a. It`s new!
Any questions, please feel free to contact me.

Those are the rules as written by the map author. When we have been playing this map we have made a few slight changes in the rules we use. We only do one blast at a time instead of 3 in a row, it seems to make the game go faster and flow better. Give it a try! It is harder than you might imagine and pretty darn fun too!
