Overall

RLM Amusements is hosting a group Matchplay tournament on Saturday, December 7th 2024. Players of all skill levels are welcome! The tournament is limited to 64 players and only players who are registered for the tournament will be allowed in the building.

The grand prize will be a working 1975 Gottlieb Fast Draw pinball machine! The pinball machine will be given away in a random drawing to one of the players! You could come in last place in the tournament and still win the pinball machine. How cool is that???

The tournament will be 10 rounds of group matchplay on Saturday with 2 matches per round with IFPA scoring (7/5/3/1) and tiered swiss pairing. On Sunday the top 24 players will face off in the PAPA style 3 game finals to determine the winner. The top 8 players will get a first round bye.

The drawing for the Fast Draw pinball machine will be done on Saturday once the last round of qualifying is completed. Each player will get 1 entry into the drawing so if we get 64 players your chances of winning are 1 in 64. The player who wins can take it home that night!

On Saturday the doors will open at 11am for practice and the tournament will start at 12pm. On Sunday for finals the doors will open at 10:30am and the tournament will start at 11am. No practice will be allowed on the pinball machines once the tournament starts or on Sunday before finals. We do have a variety of arcade games that can be played in between rounds.

The cost to play in the tournament is $80 per player. There will be payouts for the top 16 players with $30 from each players tournament fee going into the pot.

This will be a great opportunity to get some good points to qualify or increase your rank for the IFPA Michigan state championship in January. We will stream the entire tournament on our Twitch channel at twitch.tv/rlmamusements. Outside food and beverages are allowed.

Tickets will go on sale on Saturday, November 6th at 1pm at https://rlmamusements.com/tickets

You can also purchase tickets using cash, check or credit card in person at RLM Amusements on Thursdays from 5pm-1am and Saturdays from 12pm-10pm.

Tickets are not refundable tho they can be transferred to another player if you purchase a ticket and are unable to attend.

Hope to see you here!
