Tournament Overview
Start Date: December 20, 2025
End Date: December 21, 2025
RLM Amusements is hosting our 3rd annual Win A Pinball Machine tournament on Saturday, December 20th 2025 with a top 24 finals on Sunday, December 21st 2025. Players of all skill levels are welcome! The tournament is limited to 64 players. The cost to play in the tournament is $90 per player and all the games are on free play. This is a special event and we will be closed for public play that weekend.
The grand prize will be a working 1989 Williams Police Force pinball machine! The game has been gone thru top to bottom and is in great working condition. All new ramps and plastics have been installed as well. The game is valued at $3,000. The pinball machine will be given away in a random drawing to one of the players! You could come in last place in the tournament and still win the pinball machine. How cool is that???
The tournament will be 10 rounds of group matchplay on Saturday with 2 matches per round with IFPA scoring (7/5/3/1) and tiered swiss pairing. On Sunday the top 24 players will face off in the PAPA style 3 game finals to determine the winner. The top 8 players will get a first round bye.
The drawing for the Police Force pinball machine will be done on Saturday night once the last round of qualifying is completed. Each player will get 1 entry into the drawing so if we get 64 players your chances of winning are 1 in 64. The player who wins can take it home that night!
On Saturday the doors will open at 11am for practice and the tournament will start at 12pm. On Sunday for finals the doors will open at 10:30am and the tournament will start at 11am. We will be using all the pinball machines that are on the arcade floor which is currently at 33 machines. No practice will be allowed on the pinball machines once the tournament starts or on Sunday before finals. We do have a variety of arcade games that can be played in between rounds.
There will be payouts for the top 12 players with $30 from each players tournament fee going into the pot. If the tournament sells out at 64 players, there will be $1920 total that will be payed out to the top 12 players.
This is an official IFPA sanctioned certified event worth 200% TGP and an event booster of 128%. It will be a great opportunity to get some good points to qualify or increase your rank for the IFPA Michigan state championship in January.
