Overall

Welcome to the September Monthly Pinball Tournament. This tournament is open for everybody who likes pinball!
10$ entry fee. FREE ENTRY FOR FIRST TIME PARTICIPANTS in this tournament. Bring all your friends!
100% payout to the top 4.

Please let me know if you're running late. I won't be able to add you once the tournament has begun.
We will run the tournament on MatchPlay.

NOTE ABOUT MATCH PLAY:
PLEASE sign up for a free MatchPlay account and "claim yourself." This will take 3 minutes tops and if you can do this BEFORE signing up on Sunday and not asking me how to do it at 12:55p, you'll be one of my favorite players. You'll need to have your IFPA number on hand.

So go to https://matchplay.events and create an account if you don't already have one. Then follow the prompts to "claim player." Use your IFPA player number to verify the player you are claiming is you.
Find your IFPA player number by searching for yourself here: https://www.ifpapinball.com/players/find.php and clicking on your player profile.

===================================
FORMAT:

Qualifications format is Swe-Den style, a format I learned to love playing with Stockholm Pinball in Sweden: Match play Head 2 Head, Double Round Robin. Groups will be formed based on IFPA rankings. The tournament participants are divided up into groups of around 6 people where everybody in the group play each other twice on games “drawn from a hat”, best of 1 game. That is typically something like 10 matches per person and should take 4 hours.
Playoffs: Bracket. 12 players (or around top 25% per group from qualifications) advances to playoffs. 4-player group matches. 3 games per match. Top 2 per group advances until a 4-player final is played. The number of groups, players per group and number of players advancing to playoffs may change depending on the total number of participants.
PAPA/IFPA rules will be used for rulings. https://www.ifpapinball.com/menu/rules/
