This is a 1 night tournament that will not be combined with anything else and their is no side tournament.
This is going to be the same format we run for league which is a group match play style with swiss style seeding, no playoff. Final standings are whatever points you accumulate during the tournament (7/5/3/1). The difference here is that we are going to play only the EM and earlier solid state pins. These are all the faster playing games at District 82 (the B group). Plus, since its a work night, this tournament is going to be based on time and not rounds of play. We will start promptly at 6PM and continue until 10PM. You need to be at District 82 by 5:45PM to check in. Whatever round we are on when 10PM comes we will finish that round and that is the end of the tournament. I would guess we will get in between 11-13 rounds of play. (88%-100%TGP) If there is a tie for first place a playoff game will be selected and the winner will be the overall winner of the tournament and that will be reported to IFPA as a win. If there are any other ties for trophies or prizes those will be broken with a playoff game as well but will be reported to IFPA as a tie.
