Event 5: Sunday 3 Strike Knockout Tournament

Sunday May 15th

8AM Doors Open for practice and check in. Practice ends at 8:45am for announcements
9:15AM Tournament Starts

No Entry Fee for this tournament.

No Prize Money for this tournament but it will have IFPA points awarded as its own separate tournament not connected to Main Tournament in any way.

Tournament will use games not reserved for the Main Tournament Finals. We will try our best to alternate the era of games played on. One round will be LCD/DMD games and the next round will be Classics/EM games. The matchplay software will pick the games played and will match the players up in groups.

The Knockout Tournament is a 3 Strike Tournament played in groups of 4 (3 when necessary).

Random Seeding to start, then Swiss Style. Games drawn randomly.

Groups of 4 or 3 will play against each other on a single machine

The 2 players with the lowest scores in a group will receive a strike (3rd, 4th Place in the match)

3 player matches (as needed) lowest score (3rd Place) will receive a strike.

Once a player has 3 strikes they are out of this tournament

The tournament continues until there is one player remaining. Automatic Tiebreakers (if available in Match Play Software) will be turned on. Only ties for trophies will be broken with another game played.

Top 4 receive trophies/Plaques
