Tournament will work like this :
We will have 6 rounds of Match play( software that will be use is Match play events ) where players will be split in groups of 4 in a randomly assigned game , then after round 1 players will be reassigned in a new group based on their performance of previous round ( winner will play vs winner ) . Within group the score software will assign are 5-3-2-1 in 4 player group , with 3 players is slightly less . After the 6 rounds , and consider to having at least 20 players , then top 10 will go on for Finals .Order will be the one assigned by software !


Finals will consist of :
Round 1 : from 3rd place to 10th we will have 2 groups of 4 with round of 3 games where higher seed can pick a game or order ( higher seed MUST pick game from one of the Manufacturer , so Williams , Stern , Bally , etc . No one can pick 2 times Stern and no players within a group can pick again a Stern or Williams or Bally if has been picked already in that round ! ) ( 3 vs 10 vs 6 vs 7 and 2 vs 9 vs 3 vs 8 )
After the 3 games last place of each group will be eliminated !
A game can be picked only once troughout ALL tournament by same player !

Round 2 : top 2 seed will be the "driver" of the 2 groups ( 1 vs 8 v 4 vs 5 and 2 vs 7 vs 3 vs 6 ) but in this round last 2 after the 3 games will be eliminated ! The other 6 will be assigned based on their performance on round 1 !

Round 3 : the top 2 of each group of round 2 will go in final round !! Again with 3 games round and again the number 1 seed will be based on the performance on round 2 and not on qualification !

All machines , were possible will be in tournament mode .
NO EXTRA BALLS , you must plunge and walk away ( good for skill shot of touching flippers buttons before the ball will go in play ) . Tilt trough or play out of order is a loss (or last place ) .
Ifpa rules will be apply !
