Overall

Thursday to Sunday qualifying, with Sunday playoffs at Georgetown Pizza and Arcade.

There is no player cap for this event. Buy-in is $30, which includes all of your entries. Up to the best 2 games can count on each arena, with your best 10 games counting towards standings. Number of attempts will be equal to four times the number of arenas, which will be announced at a later date. Playoffs may be held on all games at GPA, not just restricted to qualifying arenas.

Qualifying Schedule TBD

Thursday, May 28th

Friday, May 29th

Saturday, May 30th

Sunday, May 31st

Playoffs will be on Sunday May 31st, schedule TBD - but don't worry, finals will NOT start early! We will stagger division check ins. Finals attendance numbers below.

Playoffs for this tournament will be PAPA-style matchplay. Groups of four players will play banks of three games with 4/2/1/0 scoring. Top seed in each group has choice of arenas/bank AND player order choice for game one. After game one player order choice goes in descending order of placement (4th place chooses first, etc.) Top two players in each group move on to the next round. B Division will begin at the start of round 2 of A Div. C Division will begin at the start of round 3 of A Div.

All division winners will receive a trophy, plaque, or prize. All buy-ins, minus a small series rake and possibly a small amount out for trophies/IFPA fees, will go into the pot, but we will not know the payout structure until we know how many we will take into finals. We strive to pay out everyone who makes A Division finals, but cannot guarantee it. Division restrictions will be determined Saturday evening, using Matchplay ranking stats to ensure division restrictions are proportional.

A Division Finals attendance numbers:

16-27 = 8 in finals
28-35 = 12 in finals
36-43 = 16 in finals
44-47 = 20 in finals
48+ = 24 in finals


B Restricted Division Finals attendance numbers:

16-35 = next 4 in B finals
35-47 = next 6 in B finals
48+ = next 8 in B finals

C Restricted Division Finals attendance numbers:

16-35 = next 2 in C finals
35-47 = next 3 in C finals
48+ = next 4 in C finals

TGP numbers:

120% TGP from qualifying
Finals will range from 12 to 21 (48%-84%) TGP
If we manage attendance of 48+, we gain certified status.
Attendance at the last SW2 Best Game was 33 players
