Tournament Overview

It's a Mad, Mad, Mad Pinball Tournament!!!


March 15th & 16th 2019


Schwoegler's Park Towne Lanes


444 Grand Canyon Drive

Madison, Wi 53719

Qualifying Friday March 15th 6 - 10pm and Saturday March 16th from 11am - 3:30pm.

Playoffs Start at 4 pm March 16th


Qualifying Round

There will be 5 Pinball games used for qualifying. All entrants will be provided 8 chances for $25 to put up their best score on 5 games. Each game costs $.75 and must be played at least once but players may use their additional chances on any game as they wish and as time allows. Qualifying will end at exactly 3:30pm Saturday March 16th. Any player not actively playing a game at that time will not be allowed to play any further attempts.

Single Elimination Bracket Playoffs

Top 16 qualifiers will be in the A bracket. 17- 32 position qualifiers will be in the B bracket. (in the event that there are less than 64 Qualifiers, the B division will consist of 8 players). ANY player currently ranked 500th or higher in IFPA overall rankings is not eligible to play in the B bracket. In the event that a player ranked in the IFPA/WPPR overall top 500 is automatically eliminated from the B playoff bracket, that position will be backfilled with the next eligible player. Final reporting for the eliminated party will be frozen in their final qualifying position as to not have a negative impact on them aside from B bracket exclusion.

IFPA/WPPR points awarded for final "A" Division Playoff Standings and final "B" Division Qualifying Standings (no reshuffling of "B" Division for IFPA reporting due to "top 500" restriction).

A and B Division - 4 player groups and each round is a 3 game single elimination format.. Games are pre-selected and different for each of the 3 rounds. Points are awarded on each game based on finishing position (7, 5, 3, 1). Top 2 Players continue on, and bottom 2 Players are eliminated. Highest seed selects player order for first game of each round. Winner of game selects player order for subsequent game. If cumulative scores after 3 games result in a tie to determine those continuing or eliminated, the impacted players will play a 1 game tie-breaker game on a pre-selected tie-breaker machine.


Event expected to grade out at 100% under 2016 WPPR rules:

5 games for qualifying (TGP = 5). Playoffs are 4 rounds of play. Rounds 1,2 and 3 will be 3 four player games (TGP of 6 = 18). In Round 4, the top two Players play heads up best 3 out of 5 (TGP = 3).

4 player games are 2x value under new system so each round of playoff counts as 6 TGP.
