The Main Tournament at the NYC Pinball Championships 2018

Main entries will be sold on-site. Entries count toward both A and B division for B-eligible players. Main will be run as a best game qualification on an 10-game bank, where your best 5 games count. Scoring on each game will work as follows: 200 pts for 1st place, 190 pts for 2nd place, 185 pts for 3rd place, 184 pts for 4th place, etc.

Qualifying runs from 5pm-12:00 AM Friday, and 10:00 AM-12:00 AM Saturday.

Finals starts at 10:00 AM Sunday for the top 24 qualified players. B division finals begins at 10:30 AM Sunday for the top 16 B-eligible players who do not qualify for A division. A Players will play in 4-player groups with the top 8 players earning a bye for the first round. B Division players cannot earn byes. Groups will play 3-game PAPA-style sets (4-2-1-0 scoring) with the top 2 players from each group moving on to the next round. Standings for eliminated players will be based on points earned in the groups. Top seed in each group will have choice of game or order, with choice going to the next best seeded players for every game in the set.
