Tournament Overview
Tournament Date: December 18, 2018
You may start qualification for this as soon as practice begins. You play 1 game on the pre-selected machine. Qualifying will end as soon as the 7th round of match play for league has completed. The top 8 scores will move onto a playoff.
You will be seeded according to qualifier; A group(1,4,5,8) and B group (2,3,6,7). A and B groups will do a 4 round, multi-match game, with IFPA group match play scoring. Games will be pre-selected in advance. Highest seed gets to choose their play order 1st then next highest seed chooses their order etc. The order you choose will be the same on all 4 tables. Multi-match means that all 4 games will be played at the same time with player 1 playing the first ball on game 1; then when that ball drains they move on to game 2 and plays ball 1; meanwhile player 2 steps up to the first game and plays ball 2, etc. Both groups play their 4 games and write down 7-5-3-1 on each game depending on their score. Those scores are added up. The top 2 continue to the finals. The bottom 2 are eliminated. A tie between 2nd and 3rd place in this grouping will be broken with a 1 ball playoff on the 4th machine just played. But they will receive a ranking based on their IFPA scores on those 4 games. For example if eliminated player 1 scores 12 points and eliminated player 2 scores 15 points then in the final ranking that is submitted to IFPA player 2 will be ranked higher than player 1. This is true for both the A and B groupings because they will be put together and the points earned will be used to determine final position. So this way the 4 players eliminated will not all be tied for same position.
The playoffs continue with the top 4 players playing 4 games simultaneously to determine the winner. Seeding for the final 4 will be based on the qualifying round. A tie for 1st place will result in a 1 game playoff chosen at random. All other ties will stand.
