General:
*Competition venue is Coney Island at Luna Park Sydney, 1 Olympic Drive, Milsons Point NSW 2061. More details here: http://www.lunaparksydney.com/
*Date & time: October 15, 10:30am. Finals are expected to begin at approximately 1:45 and finish around 2:45.
*Entry will be limited to 30 participants. PM me to register, or can register on the day if spots are still available.
*Cost of entry to Coney Island is $12. Cost of games is $1/credit. Players must pay for their own games (including finals) and entry to the venue. Participation in the tournament itself is free.
*Prizes: First place $50, second & third place $12 each (cost of Coney Island entry)
*In the event of a malfunction, a machine may need to be removed from the tournament. If this occurs during qualifying, all games previously completed on that machine will be void. Previously completed games will not be refunded. Malfunctions during finals will be subject to adjudication.
*Death saves and bangbacks are not allowed and will result in a score of 0 being recorded for that game.
*Luna Park requires enclosed footwear to be worn inside Coney Island.

Qualifying:
*Qualifying begins at 10:30 am and ends at 1:30pm.
*Registration and distribution of scoresheets will begin at 10:30 and close at 11:30. Registrations will be accepted after this time, however any player who does not register and collect their scoresheet before 11:30 will not be allowed to start any more games after 1:30.
*Players will play 11 games and record their scores. This may involve playing some machines twice.
*Players may not re-play a game to try to improve their score.
*All scores must be verified by a designated scorekeeper.
*Scores on each machine will be ranked highest to lowest and points awarded. The lowest score on a machine will receive 1 point, second lowest receives 2 points etc. Top score will receive (number of players +1) points.
*Machines played twice during qualifying will have games designated as game 1 and game 2 for the purposes of point allocation (eg Sky Line Game 1 will be treated as a different set of results to Sky Line Game 2).
*Points from all machines will be added together and the top 4 qualifiers will advance to finals.
*Where a tie occurs for the top 4, the higher position will go to the player with a higher score on more games (eg player A outscored player B on 7 of the 11 qualifying games; player A will therefore be ranked higher).
*Important: A player must alert a designated scorekeeper when getting close to rolling the score. Failure to do so may result in the score being recorded as though the scoring had not been rolled.

Finals:
* Finalists will be seeded according to their placing after qualifying.
*All finals matches will be played as single-player games, even if the machine allows multi-player games.
*All finals match-ups will be single elimination, best of 3. Higher ranked player chooses machine (from qualifying machines only) and lower ranked player chooses play order on games 1 & 3. Reverse applies for game 2.
*For semi-finals, 1st seed plays 4th seed, 2nd seed plays 3rd seed.
*Winners of semi-finals will play each other in the grand final.
*3rd and 4th place will be determined by qualifying position.
*Should there be fewer than 8 players in the tournament, the top two players will play a best of three final, under the conditions set out above.
