Finals Format

Overall

Qualifying will be from 2pm-6pm. We will have multiple games on site to qualify on and everyone will get 2 qualifying attempts, with only your best score counting. Extra balls will be turned off for qualifying and the playoffs due to time concerns. The top 16 scores overall will move on to playoffs. The 16 players will be broken into 4 groups of 4 based on their qualifying scores, everyone else will be submitted to the IFPA for points based on the finishing placement of their highest qualifying score. In the playoffs, the top qualifier will have his pick of machines to play on and the players order will be reverse of how they finished, with top score going 4th, second highest score going 3rd and so on. The top two scores in each group will move on to the top 8. Groups will again be resorted by original qualifying score and choice of game and player order will be the same as before. Once again, the top two scores in each group will move on to the final four. Same choice and order rules will again apply as before. The top 4 players will all be in the money and win cash and/or prizes.

We are hoping to have an additional game on site for players to play during their qualifying wait time. There will be custom event t-shirts that will be available on a limited basis for free. We also have tons of other prizes that have been donated, so you dont need to play well to win. Everyone will get a ticket when entering and we will do random draws for those other great prizes.
