Tournament Overview
Start Date: August 19, 2022
End Date: August 21, 2022
Maximum # of players: 76. Price for all weekend is $99 for all Fri-Sun, Aug. 19-21 tourneys. This does not include separate entry into CNE grounds. $99 payment to be made to CNE@PinballLeds.ca. See website for all tourneys Aug. 19-21, 2022. Presented by Maple Pinball.
Qualifying will begin 15 minutes after “Group Match Play tournament” (approx. 6-7pm Friday., Aug. 19th). Qualifying will continue on Saturday, Aug. 20th from 10am until 8:50pm (no new games after that). Volunteers will be able to qualify on Sat. Aug. 20th from 9-10pm.
Everyone will have 15 entries to put together your best 5 scores on a bank of 12 machines.
Players will be added to a digital queue for a machine prior to play by themselves via the neverdrains.com software. If needed, a player may also ask a scorekeeper or the tournament desk to add them to a queue.
Once a player has completed their game, the player will raise their hand to signal a scorekeeper. The player may either choose to have the score recorded or to void the entry. Voiding the entry still counts as one of a player’s limited entries. Players are responsible for verifying it before the score is finalized. Taking a picture of the machine’s score display is highly encouraged to have a back-up reference in case of any scorekeeping errors. Do not leave the machine prior to having a score recorded or voided. If a player leaves without waiting, the scorekeeper will void the entry. Players may be warned for unsportsmanlike conduct.
Scoring
Each player’s best score on a machine will receive a point value based on its rank compared to all other players’ scores. The #1 score earns 100 points, #2 score earns 97 points, #3 earns 95 points, and #4 through #76 earn one less point per position. A player’s overall score is the sum of their ranking scores on all machines in the tournament.
Only your top 5 games will count towards their qualifying point total. Rankings will change as new scores are posted on each machine. The overall score of each player may change as the qualifying rounds progress. In the event of two or more scores on a machine being exactly tied, the highest point value of the tied positions will be awarded for each such score.
Tournament officials will endeavor to provide up-to-date scores and rankings. The overall ranking scores are used to determine which players qualify for the playoff rounds.
Main Tournament Finals
** Main Tourney Finals begin on Sunday, August 21, 2022 with any significant tie-breakers for top 24 at 10:15am, followed by the top 24 playoffs. Playoff players are required to check-in by 10:15am, or they forfeit their Finals spot. **
Before Top 24 begin, any ties to qualify for playoffs or for a bye in playoffs (top 8) will be broken on a machine selected by tournament officials. During the playoffs, tiebreakers will be settled on a machine chosen by the highest seed that was not played by their group during that finals round.
Finals will be played using a “PAPA style” format. Finalists will be placed into groups of 4 players. They play 3 games. At the beginning of each round, the top seed in each group gets to the pick a number N (from machines #1-12) as the first machine to be played during that round by their group, or they may choose playing position for the first machine. Their group will then play machines N, N+1, and N+2, with the group wrapping around back to machine #1 if N or N+1 is pin #12. Player order for machines N+1 and N+2 are chosen in reverse finishing order from the prior machine. Once a particular machine (Machine N) has been chosen as a starting first machine by one group, that machine may not be selected as the starting one by another group. Subsequent groups may end up playing Machine N as their second or third machine by selecting Machine N-1 or N-2 as their first machine. If one group is still playing on a second group’s machine N+1 or N+2 when it is the next machine for the second group to play, the second group shall wait for the first group to finish playing, and not leap-frog to a different machine. If a machine has a catastrophic malfunction, then any groups assigned to that machine will play the machine that is one number higher instead.
Scoring is 4-2-1-0 for the finishing positions. After 3 games, the top 2 players from each group advance.
