World Pinball Player Rankings update – closing out 2014 and WPPR v4.0

As we come to an end of another season, this particular season brings us some additional challenges with the changeover to our 2015 WPPR v5.0 system.

Up first is closing the books on 2014, and in order to do that we are asking that any organizer that has open tournament results submit those to us by the end of the weekend. Furthermore, any corrections to player misspellings, incorrect results, improper scoring issues, etc, all need to be addressed by the end of the weekend. Please take some time to review your own personal results to see if anything looks out of place.

Our plan is to lock down 2014 on January 5th, and use the standings at that time for IFPA World Championship qualifying purposes, as well as the other Championship Series purposes (State Championship Series, European Championship Series, etc). Any errors caught after that point in time will NOT impact the 2014 standings, although those changes will be reflected in the 2015 rankings going forward.

Please be patient if you notice 2015 results are not being approved and put into the WPPR system as quickly as you are accustomed to seeing. There is a ton of work involved in migrating the system from the 'old way' to the 'new way'.

Any questions please contact us at ifpapinball@gmail.com, and remember that if your profile doesn't say 'Registered' with a green check mark, that we do NOT have your email address on file. This means we will not be able to contact you for any IFPA World Championship or other Championship Series qualifying issues.
