"Tales Of The Tuesday Nights" #02 League Outline:
"Tales Of The Tuesday Nights" is a competitive pinball league that will operate for 12 consecutive weeks with the Finals
being held on the 13th week. Locations for each week's tournament will rotate between Starport Arcade (471 Chestnut Street...lower level of Bent Willey's, Morgantown, WV) and Mundy's Place (669 Madigan Avenue, Morgantown, WV). The current schedule will run from September 5, 2017 to November 21, 2017...with the Finals being held on Tuesday, November 28, 2017.
Each weekly Tournament entry will be $5.00. Half of that will go to the weekly Top 3 Finishers (paid out in 60%, 25%, 15% increments), with the other $2.50 going in to the Finals Payout for the Top 4 Finishers during the 13th week Finals. Finals payout will be 1st Place: 60%, 2nd Place: 25%, 3rd Place: 10%, 4th Place: 5%.
Tournament play each Tuesday night will be Head-To-Head "Knockout" format with random selection of opponents and machines each Round. Each week will be scheduled to be a "Three Strikes Knockout" as long as there are at least 16 players
participating. Should there be 15 or less players, the Tournament will become a "Four Strikes Knockout" format. The first player randomly chosen by the software (matchplay.events) will have choice of order in each match of every round. Should there happen to be more players than can fit on the machines at Mundy's, players will be asked to double up on a machine that has been placed in the Arenas listing twice (all attempts will be made to make this a machine that is capable of handling four players).
Each week during the schedule, "TOTTN Points" will be awarded to each participant. "TOTTN Points" will be awarded in the following manner: 50 for 1st Place, 45 for 2nd Place, 40 for 3rd Place, 39 for 4th Place and then in one point decreasing increments for each position 5th Place and below (38, 37, 36, etc.). These Points will be tallied through the schedule and will determine seeding for the Finals. Highest Point total will be seeded 1st, second highest Point total 2nd and so on through the 8 player Finals bracket.
Finals will be Head-To Head, Best Of Five Rounds with the winner advancing on to the next Round. During the Finals, the higher seeded player will have choice of game or order and the lower seeded player will have the unclaimed choice. No waiting on machines will be allowed for the Finals, so an unoccupied machine must be chosen when the Round starts. No machine may be played twice in the same round.
Seeding will be in a 1-8, 2-7, 3-6, 4-5 format with the 1-8 winner facing off against the 4-5 winner in Round 2 and the 2-7 winner playing the 3-6 winner. Third Round will consist of the Championship Match and the single game Consolation Match (to determine 3rd and 4th Place Finishers). Order of Top 8 Finishers after Finals will determine the Final Standings for the Top 8 as submitted to the IFPA. The rest of the Final Standings will be determined by "TOTTN Points" accumulated over the course of the schedule.

2. Starport Arcade will be open for practice at least one hour before Tournament time each week. Mundy's Place is open for practice during regular business hours beginning at 3pm each Tournament Tuesday.
3. Since this is considered a "League", no weekly Tournament results will be submitted to the IFPA. Instead, all "Meaningful Games" played and other vital statistics will be accumulated through the Finals to determine the Final Results which will be submitted to the IFPA and WPPR's will be determined accordingly.
4. Participants MUST play EIGHT of the 12 week schedule in order to qualify for the Finals. In other words, the Top 8 participants who HAVE played at least eight weeks of the schedule will make up the Finals field. This means that a player that played all eight weeks and has a lower point total will make the Finals over a person that played only seven weeks with a higher point total.
5. Should there happen to be a Tie for any spot in the Top 8 (thus affecting the Finals), the Tie will be broken on the day of the Finals with a ONE GAME TIEBREAKER on a randomly selected machine. Winner of Tiebreaker game will claim the higher position of the two for seeding purposes.
6. Please note that starting in 2017, the IFPA has instituted the following ruling: "For any IFPA-endorsed tournament or league with a qualifying portion, players can only be included in IFPA final results if they have met at least 50% of all qualifying requirements. Any players that don’t meet this minimum participation requirement should be removed from the results by the tournament director (TD) prior to submitting those results to the IFPA. For example...For leagues, this means that players must participate in at least 50% of the sessions of the regular season to be included in the final standings submitted to the IFPA." What does this mean to participants in "Tales Of The Tuesday Nights"? IF YOU DO NOT PLAY IN 6 OF THE 12 WEEKS OF THE "TALES OF THE TUESDAY NIGHTS" SEASON, IT WILL (AT LEAST IFPA-WISE) LOOK LIKE YOU NEVER PLAYED AT ALL! That means no WPPR's awarded to you or no qualifying for the current year's State Championship for you (unless you play in other tournaments or complete another League season during the year). Keeping it simple, you could look at it like this: you gotta play EIGHT weeks in the TOTTN to qualify to be in the Finals and you've got to play at least SIX weeks to be submitted to the IFPA as having even participated at all.
7. Machines will be on coin drop at both Starport Arcade and at Mundy's Place.
8. Any rulings needed during the course of play each week will be at the sole discretion of the League Director and those assigned to oversee such matters.
9. Should ever a machine be deemed Unplayable by the League Director or one of those assigned to oversee such matters (either during regular League matches or during the Finals), the next open machine to the right will be played instead and then the machine removed from the Arena selection file.
10. Abusive behavior, either physically toward machines and individuals or verbally toward other individuals, will not be tolerated. After receiving an initial Warning of such abusive behavior, the next infraction will result in a player being banned from competition for the current schedule. A Warning will be effective for the Season of the initial infraction and expire at the end of the NEXT Season. Should an offence take place following the Warning, the dismissal of the player shall be in effect for the remainder of that Season and the next.
11. Updated weekly results will be available on the League Facebook Group page:
