QUALIFYING
The format of the event will be Target Match play, with a target of 30 points, Pinburgh scoring of 3-2-1-0. Once a player reaches 30 points, the top 16 players will be then placed into the finals. for any players tied on the cutline, a tie-breaker will be played to determine who will rise above the bubble to fit in the top 16. If 2 or more players reach 30 points in qualifying, then a tiebreaker game will happen to determine top seed. For the seeds of all other players, if any ties exist then matchplay software will determine ties. If any ties still remain after that point, then IFPA rank will determine seeding.
FINALS
Finals series will be 4-2-1-0 scoring, each round played by 4 player groups, top seed from each group selecting 3 games to play or position, higher seed groups get priority for choosing games (other groups cannot wait for a game), and a game can only be chosen once per round, 2 from each group to move on to the next round until 4 players are left. The final round of 3 games will determine the winner! Players 1-4 will get a trophy for each finishing place, and the champion will win the Ticket To Pinburgh!
The Pinburgh ticket is non-transferable, if the winner does not or cannot accept the ticket, the Pinburgh organization will pay the winner $350 after the event.
