Tournament Overview


Start Date: March 27, 2015
End Date: March 28, 2015

Qualification Time: 20+ hours of qualifying time. This will satisfy the IFPA requirement and award the maximum grade of 20% for unlimited qualification

events.

Friday: Players will qualify on six different machines. There is no limit to the number of entries a player can use during qualification. Please refer to

tournament schedule for qualfication times.

A player's highest score is used for ranking purpose. Each machine is worth up to a maximum of 100 points. Second place is worth 90 points. Third place is

worth 85 points. Starting with 4th place, points will reduce by 1 point. The minimum points that can be earned by a player is 1 point.

A Friday composite score will be calculated for each player. This composite score will consist of all points scored on Friday for each machine in the event.

The top five composite scores will earn a spot in the Top 10

Scores from Friday will not carry over to Saturday.

Friday qualification will represent +6 significant games under the new IFPA point system.

Saturday: Players will qualify on +6 different machines. There is no limit to the number of entries a player can use during qualification. Please refer to

tournament schedule for qualfication times.

A player's highest score is used for ranking purpose. Each machine is worth up to a maximum of 100 points. Second place is worth 90 points. Third place is

worth 85 points. Starting with 4th place, points will reduce by 1 point. The minimum points that can be earned by a player is 1 point.

A Saturday composite score will be calculated for each player. This composite score will consist of all points scored on Saturday for each machine in the

event.

The top five composite scores will earn a spot in the Top 10.

Saturday will represent six significant games under the new IFPA point system.

The Top 5 tiebreaker:
In the event of a tie for 5th place on Friday or Saturday, the tied players will play one game to break the tie. The highest score will be considered the

winner and will earn the 5th place spot.

The Top 10 rankings:
Players in the top 10 will be ranked based on the total points earned (Friday Composite + Saturday Composite) on their total tournament points. Highest point

total will earn the top rank. Lowest point total will earn the 12th rank.

At Large Bids:
Players that are not in the top 10 will earn a spot based on their total tournament points. These points are calculated by adding Friday and Saturday points

together. Players will be ranked according to this composite score.

Ranking Ties:
If players are tied for the final at large spot, a one ball playoff will be used as a tie breaker. The machine will be randomly selected by the tournament

judges.

If players are tied for any other at large spot, the player with the better IFPA ranking will be considered the better seed.

Within a playoff round, all players eliminated will be ranked based on their qualification rank. For Example, if 8,10,15, & 20 are eliminated in the round

of 8, qualification rankings would be used. So Seed 8 would be 5th seed. Seed 10 would be 6th seed. Seed 15 would be 7th seed. Seed 20 would be 8th seed.

Due to new IFPA rules, the playoffs cannot contain more than 50% of the total number of tournament participants. We expect a minimum of 80 players, so our

playoff structure is based on 40 players.

In the event of fewer than 80 players, the playoffs will be adjusted accordingly. The TPF Playoff Groups in Round 1 will have to be modified to accommodate

fewer players. The Finals may be modified to add more games to reach 100% Grade.

Entering the playoffs, the event will be worth a grade of 68%. Each significant game in the playoffs will add 4% until 100% is reached.

Playoff Format: Single elimination 2-player games. +9 Significant Games

Players will be grouped into six groups based on seeding. The top 4 seeds are not included in any groups.
The best seed is the lowest number, which is 1. The worst seed is the highest number, which is 40.

Playoff Groups:

Group 1 - (10, 16, 22, 28, 34, 35)
Group 2 - (09, 15, 21, 27, 33, 36)
Group 3 - (08, 14, 20, 26, 32, 37)
Group 4 - (07, 13, 19, 25, 31, 38)
Group 5 - (06, 12, 18, 24, 30, 39)
Group 6 - (05, 11, 17, 23, 29, 40)

Each round begins with a selection of game by the best seed in the round. If the player prefer to pick position, then the choice will move to the next best

seed. This will continue until all matches are associated with a game title.
