World Pinball Player Rankings update – closing out 2018 and moving to WPPR v5.5

As we come to an end of another season, the 2018 season brings us some additional challenges with the changeover to our WPPR v5.5 system.

Up first is closing the books on 2018, and in order to do that we are asking that any organizer that has open tournament results submit those to us by Friday, January 4th. Furthermore, any corrections to player misspellings, incorrect results, improper scoring issues, etc, all need to be addressed by January 4th as well. Please take some time to review your own personal results to see if anything looks out of place.

Our plan is to lock down 2018 on January 4th, and use the standings at that time for IFPA16 World Championship qualifying purposes, as well as the other Championship Series purposes (North American Championship Series, European Championship Series, etc). Any errors caught after that point in time will NOT impact the 2018 standings, although those changes will be reflected in the 2019 rankings going forward.

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. Players that don’t have their profile ‘Registered’ are ineligible to participate in any IFPA Championship Series.

With the State and Provincial Championships planned earlier on January 19th, 2019, registration process for SCS is going to be QUICK (not quite Pinburgh fast, but fast). Players will have until the end of January 7th, 8pm CST to declare the state they wish to compete in. Contact your IFPA State Representative to make sure you are registered for the state you wish to play in.
