Tournament Overview


Tournament Date: October 23, 2022

http://www.dfw-pinball-league.webnode.com
https://www.facebook.com/events/333995275583651/

This will be the 9th CHARITY pinball fundraiser in memory of Alan Marx.

Doors open/Registration starts/Warmup time starts at NOON.
Tournament Meeting/Start at 12:30 PM.

THIS EVENT IS OPEN TO THE PUBLIC

THIS IS FAMILY FRIENDLY as my four children will likely be playing pinball too!
We've had players as young as 3 years old & as old as 81 in our leagues.
All we ask is that you respect each other, the host's home, and the machines! So, come Join us!

*** The tournament will have A, B, and C Divisions with 3 NICE TROPHIES being given away in each division! See details later in this post ***

For League Players: This Event will also host 4th event for the DFW Pinball League's Fall 2022 League!

Here's how it works:
--- We have between 20 and 30 pinball and arcade games in our house, ALL set for free play (no coins needed).
--- Minimum suggested donation is $25 per person at entry.
--- LARGER contributions are WELCOMED as well (for those willing/able).
--- 100% of the proceeds from this event go directly to the two 501(c)3 organizations that we have chosen to support.
--- Anyone can come and go as they please during the day.

For those more serious about pinball, there are lots of IFPA WPPR points available here because there are THREE IFPA sanctioned EVENTS and FOUR TOTAL WAYS TO PLAY:

WAYS TO PLAY 1 AND 2:
----- DFW 2022 PINBALL LEAGUE FALL EVENT 4 (way to play 1) - This is a best score format in which players can play at their own pace. Further info is covered on the league page on the IFPA league calendar.
DFW Pinball League scoring rules are published on the league's webnode website (web address is at the end of this description). The rules were updated for this fall league so please make sure to check them out ASAP!
----- (way to play 2) The DFW Women's League runs a concurrent event structured similarly to this one - see their Facebook page for specific rules: https://www.facebook.com/dfwwomenspinballleague/

WAY TO PLAY 3:
---- THE IFPA TOURNAMENT -
This is a group matchplay style tournament.
Finals TBD -- but we usually do (1) Group Elimination/PAPA Style, (2) 2 Strikes, or (3) Best of 3 Brackets.
THERE WILL BE PLAYOFFS FOR A, B and C DIVISIONS SO ALL SKILL LEVELS CAN PLAY AND WIN!

There will be NICE trophies awarded for first through third place in ALL 3 divisions.
"A" finals affects standings.
"B" finals is for PRIZES (gift cards, t-shirts, and MORE!)
The B Division is restricted based on rules published on the league website.
"C" finals is for PRIZES as well AND is limited to players OUTSIDE the IFPA top 2500 (so NOVICES can win too!)
This makes certain that ANYONE CAN WIN!
... we ALSO have random door prizes for ANYONE in the tournament regardless of standings/rankings!

WAY TO PLAY 4:
Based on the final standings from the tournament's qualifying (from way to play 3), we also hold a:
----- "KIDZ FINAL"
This is ONE GAME played by kids aged 16 and under for an age appropriate prize!
To insure that its fair for all kids and that everyone has a chance to win, a child will be EXCLUDED from the KIDZ FINAL for next two events after they WIN, thus giving other kids a chance to win too.
The KIDZ Final is unsanctioned and exclusive of the tournament playoffs. That means kids can play in BOTH if they want!

COST: Again, the minimum suggested donation is $25 per person - all of it going to the selected organizations.
However, I will not turn anyone away over cost.

Obviously larger donations are welcomed but no donation will be turned away!
