Tournament Overview
Start Date: November 06, 2024
End Date: December 18, 2024
This season of the Women's Neon Ranch Pinball League will consist of 6 total league nights followed by a league final playoff to determine a winner. Each player’s top 4 league nights will count toward the qualifying standings to determine who will move onto the League Finals, which will be the top half of players in an Amazing Race Finals.
League Nights Qualifying Match Play:
League nights will consist of 6 total games played in 4 player groups (3 player if necessary). Match points will be awarded based on a player’s finishing position on each game they play: 1st place = 7 pts., 2nd place = 5 pts., 3rd place = 3 pts., 4th place = 1 pt. First night will be random draw cards but then groups will be Swiss seeded each week based on their previous nights results. New players will be seeded at a half way point. 2 games will be chosen by the tournament director and each player will choose a game for their group to play. Best 4 nights will count towards finals seeding and top half make the finals.
AMAZING RACE Finals - How It Works
All qualifying players compete on the same machine, one at a time. The first player sets the first target score on the first machine. When you hit the target score (once established), you immediately move on the next game. If a player ends the game with a score that's lower than the target score, they now are at risk of elimination if everyone else beats their target score. Ultimately, the player with the LOWEST score on the game is eliminated. Meanwhile, the players that did beat the target score are on to the next machine and the same process occurs. Order of play is based on your qualifying seeding (lowest seeds play first). Players continue until there's only one player left – the Amazing Race and Winter League champion!
