Tournament Overview
Registration for this tournament opens on December 03, 2022
Tournament Date: February 17, 2023
Please go to the District 82 Website link to see the event in full detail. This is just a brief summary of the main event.
150 Player Cap
$250 Per Player (Includes 3 Different Tournaments)
Event 2: 10 Strike Progressive Knockout
Friday February 17th, 2023
5PM-Midnight
You will play in groups of 4 players (3 when necessary), random seeding to start, then swiss style pairing thereafter. You will get 0/1/2/3 strikes per round (1 game per round). Once you receive 10 strikes you are out of the tournament. Once eliminated, you may stay and play all the games on free play the rest of the night. We alternate between A (1992 & newer DMD/LCD) & B (1991 & older Classics) Groups each round. Your final position will be determined by the round and number of strikes you have. Example if you go into a round with 8 strikes and someone else in a different group goes into a round with 7 strikes; you both get 4th place adding 3 strikes to your total. You would have 11 strikes and finish behind the person who ended the same round with only 10 strikes.
A tie for first place will result in a 1 GAME Tie Breaker randomly chosen by the tournament director. Ties between 2nd-8th position will be broken with a 1 GAME game tie breaker for the affected players to determine the trophy and/or cash received. Game will be selected by tournament director and the game itself will be either classic or modern based on what the next game choice would be been. When reporting this to IFPA for points those ties will be reported as such except a tie for 1st place. Also, the overall series points will be a tie as well. 1st Place is significant and will be reported as a win and not a tie. We will not be switching to all classics at 10PM as has been customary in the past at District 82. No playoffs or finals.
Cash Prizes for 1st-8th
Trophies or Plaques for 1-4

Winter 3X Pinball Tournaments
3 Tournaments over 3 Days - New Event Format
Pinburgh inspired main event will take place over all 3 days (Friday-Sunday) with 2 separate knockout tournaments at night on Friday and Saturday. We will also have a 4th 'warm up' tournament that does count for IFPA points but no cash prizes on Thursday Night Feb 16th.
Live Stream:
All tournaments will be live streamed on Twitch with Fox Cities Pinball Stream Here: https://www.twitch.tv/foxcitiespinball
Main Event:
Day 1: 4 Rounds, 3 Games (from different eras) Per Round, Tiered Swiss Pairings, IFPA Rank Seeding to start, 3/2/1/0 scoring per game. All 150 players against each other.
Day 2: The entire field will be divided up into A/B & Novice divisions based on results of Day 1 and A & B Divisions will carry those points into day 2. Novice Division players will start over at Zero points. We will have rank restrictions for A & B divisions explained below under tournament formats but no one will be eliminated from the tournament after Day 1. You will play 4 more rounds of 3 game banks, tiered swiss pairings, seeding based on Day 1 points, 3/2/1/0 scoring per game. Top 24 in A division and Top 16 in B & Novice division will make playoffs.
Day 3: Each Division will have the same playoff format except the top 8 in A will have 1st round bye. Top seed in each 4 player group will have choice of bank. Each round will consist of a 3 game bank with 4/2/1/0 scoring. Top 2 advance bottom 2 eliminated until we get to 4 players who then play for the win. Money Prizes in A/B & Novice Division. If you do not make the finals we will have roughly half the games at District 82 available for Free Play but no extra tournament for those that didn't make the finals.
IFPA Certified Approval & Pro Circuit Event
These tournaments will be approved for IFPA points. The Main Event follows the current proposed certified format for 2023 and will be certified+ if we have 128 or more players. This should be a Stern Pro Circuit event but that hasn't been finalized yet. The main event will be worth somewhere between 200-300% TGP. Once IFPA finalizes the rules for 2023 and we know how many players we have I can give you a more definitive number. The knockout tournaments should be 100% TGP each.
Cost
$250 Per Player ($140 Admission to District 82 $110 to Prize Pools). This pays for all 3 tournaments from Friday-Sunday. District 82 pays sales tax, IFPA fees, trophies, etc out of admission costs. 100% of prize pool money goes to players as money prizes. This $250 cost is PAID IN ADVANCE WHEN YOU REGISTER.

If you pay first and don't secure a registration your money will be refunded (less any fees incurred by District 82). Follow the instructions and Register First, Pay Second.

Tournament Formats:
Main Event Qualifying Day 1
Friday February 17th, 2023
8AM Doors Open for Practice
9AM Tournament Starts
4:30PM Projected End Time
I'm planning on using Never Drains Software for the Main Event and Match Play for the Knockouts. Smaller details like Automatic Tiebreakers, turning in printed match results or uploading results, will be worked out prior to the start of the event as this is a newer format for the software. We will use all 100+ Pinball Machines inside District 82 Pinball. At some point you will be playing a machine directly next to another player. This cannot be avoided so play on. Each round will consist of your 4 player (3 player when necessary) group playing a 3 game bank each round. We will play 4 rounds total (12 Games Total), tiered swiss pairings, automatic tiebreakers on, IFPA seeding to start, player order will be pre-selected. Each bank will consist of a classics pin (1985 and older non DMD style), Mid Game (1981-1995) and a modern pin (1994 DMD or LCD game). You will play each game one at a time (Not Multi-Match). Once you finish all 3 games you turn in your sheet or upload the results. You will get 3/2/1/0 or 3/1.5/0 scoring on each game. So a maximum of 9 points per round. At the end of Day 1 qualifying you will be divided into A/B or Novice Division based on your overall accumulated points. Top 48 Players for A, Next 48 Players for B, everyone else in Novice Division. These numbers of players can change based on restrictions below. A & B Division players take there totals into Day 2 and add on from there. Novice Division Players start over on there qualifying points.
IFPA Rank Restrictions for A & B Division
If you are ranked 100 or better in the world by the IFPA as of February 11th, 2023 you will be restricted to A Division. This means you must play in A Division Qualifying on Day 2. If you do not earn enough points to be in the top 48 players you will be still be placed in A division with whatever points you accumulated and the field will be expanded to accommodate these players. So if 3 players ranked 100 or better in the world don't get enough points to earn the A division spot on day 2 the field will be expanded to 51 players to let them in.
If you are ranked 101st-750th in the world you will be restricted to no lower than B Division. This means that if you qualify in the top 48 players for A division then you play in A division. If you score enough points for the next 48 players (49th-96th) then you play in B division. If you do not score enough points for B division the field will be expanded to accommodate you into the B division for the 2nd day.
Novice division is 751st or lower or no rank by IFPA as of February 11th, 2023. These players have no restrictions and can play in any division they qualify for no matter if its A/B or Novice.
Game list for the Triple Up Tournament as of October 2022. These are the games used for the banks. I have not made the 3 game banks yet.
Depending on the number of players I may need to play some groups on the same banks but starting on different games. Most banks will start with Classic go to Mid then finish with Modern. Some banks will start with Modern then go to Classic and finish with Mid. Play your games and keep your order the same as written on the sheet for your group.
If a game goes down and cannot be repaired quickly you will be given a replacement game from the same era to complete your bank.

Event 2: 10 Strike Progressive Knockout
Friday February 17th, 2023
5PM-Midnight
You will play in groups of 4 players (3 when necessary), random seeding to start, then swiss style pairing thereafter. You will get 0/1/2/3 strikes per round (1 game per round). Once you receive 10 strikes you are out of the tournament. Once eliminated, you may stay and play all the games on free play the rest of the night. We alternate between A (1992 & newer DMD/LCD) & B (1991 & older Classics) Groups each round. Your final position will be determined by the round and number of strikes you have. Example if you go into a round with 8 strikes and someone else in a different group goes into a round with 7 strikes; you both get 4th place adding 3 strikes to your total. You would have 11 strikes and finish behind the person who ended the same round with only 10 strikes.
A tie for first place will result in a 1 GAME Tie Breaker randomly chosen by the tournament director. Ties between 2nd-8th position will be broken with a 1 GAME game tie breaker for the affected players to determine the trophy and/or cash received. Game will be selected by tournament director and the game itself will be either classic or modern based on what the next game choice would be been. When reporting this to IFPA for points those ties will be reported as such except a tie for 1st place. Also, the overall series points will be a tie as well. 1st Place is significant and will be reported as a win and not a tie. We will not be switching to all classics at 10PM as has been customary in the past at District 82. No playoffs or finals.

Scoring will be 4/2/1/0 for each of the 3 games. Top 2 advance bottom 2 are eliminated. Should there be a tie for 2nd/3rd place a 1 game playoff will be played by the 2 affected players.

Winter 3X Pinball Tournaments
3 Tournaments over 3 Days - New Event Format
Pinburgh inspired main event will take place over all 3 days (Friday-Sunday) with 2 separate knockout tournaments at night on Friday and Saturday. We will also have a 4th 'warm up' tournament that does count for IFPA points but no cash prizes on Thursday Night Feb 16th.
Live Stream:
All tournaments will be live streamed on Twitch with Fox Cities Pinball Stream Here: https://www.twitch.tv/foxcitiespinball
Main Event:
Day 1: 4 Rounds, 3 Games (from different eras) Per Round, Tiered Swiss Pairings, IFPA Rank Seeding to start, 3/2/1/0 scoring per game. All 150 players against each other.
Day 2: The entire field will be divided up into A/B & Novice divisions based on results of Day 1 and A & B Divisions will carry those points into day 2. Novice Division players will start over at Zero points. We will have rank restrictions for A & B divisions explained below under tournament formats but no one will be eliminated from the tournament after Day 1. You will play 4 more rounds of 3 game banks, tiered swiss pairings, seeding based on Day 1 points, 3/2/1/0 scoring per game. Top 24 in A division and Top 16 in B & Novice division will make playoffs.
Day 3: Each Division will have the same playoff format except the top 8 in A will have 1st round bye. Top seed in each 4 player group will have choice of bank. Each round will consist of a 3 game bank with 4/2/1/0 scoring. Top 2 advance bottom 2 eliminated until we get to 4 players who then play for the win. Money Prizes in A/B & Novice Division. If you do not make the finals we will have roughly half the games at District 82 available for Free Play but no extra tournament for those that didn't make the finals.
IFPA Certified Approval & Pro Circuit Event
These tournaments will be approved for IFPA points. The Main Event follows the current proposed certified format for 2023 and will be certified+ if we have 128 or more players. This should be a Stern Pro Circuit event but that hasn't been finalized yet. The main event will be worth somewhere between 200-300% TGP. Once IFPA finalizes the rules for 2023 and we know how many players we have I can give you a more definitive number. The knockout tournaments should be 100% TGP each.
Cost
$250 Per Player ($140 Admission to District 82 $110 to Prize Pools). This pays for all 3 tournaments from Friday-Sunday. District 82 pays sales tax, IFPA fees, trophies, etc out of admission costs. 100% of prize pool money goes to players as money prizes. This $250 cost is PAID IN ADVANCE WHEN YOU REGISTER.

Tournament Formats:
Main Event Qualifying Day 1
Friday February 17th, 2023
8AM Doors Open for Practice
9AM Tournament Starts
4:30PM Projected End Time
I'm planning on using Never Drains Software for the Main Event and Match Play for the Knockouts. Smaller details like Automatic Tiebreakers, turning in printed match results or uploading results, will be worked out prior to the start of the event as this is a newer format for the software. We will use all 100+ Pinball Machines inside District 82 Pinball. At some point you will be playing a machine directly next to another player. This cannot be avoided so play on. Each round will consist of your 4 player (3 player when necessary) group playing a 3 game bank each round. We will play 4 rounds total (12 Games Total), tiered swiss pairings, automatic tiebreakers on, IFPA seeding to start, player order will be pre-selected. Each bank will consist of a classics pin (1985 and older non DMD style), Mid Game (1981-1995) and a modern pin (1994 DMD or LCD game). You will play each game one at a time (Not Multi-Match). Once you finish all 3 games you turn in your sheet or upload the results. You will get 3/2/1/0 or 3/1.5/0 scoring on each game. So a maximum of 9 points per round. At the end of Day 1 qualifying you will be divided into A/B or Novice Division based on your overall accumulated points. Top 48 Players for A, Next 48 Players for B, everyone else in Novice Division. These numbers of players can change based on restrictions below. A & B Division players take there totals into Day 2 and add on from there. Novice Division Players start over on there qualifying points.
IFPA Rank Restrictions for A & B Division
If you are ranked 100 or better in the world by the IFPA as of February 11th, 2023 you will be restricted to A Division. This means you must play in A Division Qualifying on Day 2. If you do not earn enough points to be in the top 48 players you will be still be placed in A division with whatever points you accumulated and the field will be expanded to accommodate these players. So if 3 players ranked 100 or better in the world don't get enough points to earn the A division spot on day 2 the field will be expanded to 51 players to let them in.
If you are ranked 101st-750th in the world you will be restricted to no lower than B Division. This means that if you qualify in the top 48 players for A division then you play in A division. If you score enough points for the next 48 players (49th-96th) then you play in B division. If you do not score enough points for B division the field will be expanded to accommodate you into the B division for the 2nd day.
Novice division is 751st or lower or no rank by IFPA as of February 11th, 2023. These players have no restrictions and can play in any division they qualify for no matter if its A/B or Novice.
Game list for the Triple Up Tournament as of October 2022. These are the games used for the banks. I have not made the 3 game banks yet.
Depending on the number of players I may need to play some groups on the same banks but starting on different games. Most banks will start with Classic go to Mid then finish with Modern. Some banks will start with Modern then go to Classic and finish with Mid. Play your games and keep your order the same as written on the sheet for your group.
If a game goes down and cannot be repaired quickly you will be given a replacement game from the same era to complete your bank.

Event 2: 10 Strike Progressive Knockout
Friday February 17th, 2023
5PM-Midnight
You will play in groups of 4 players (3 when necessary), random seeding to start, then swiss style pairing thereafter. You will get 0/1/2/3 strikes per round (1 game per round). Once you receive 10 strikes you are out of the tournament. Once eliminated, you may stay and play all the games on free play the rest of the night. We alternate between A (1992 & newer DMD/LCD) & B (1991 & older Classics) Groups each round. Your final position will be determined by the round and number of strikes you have. Example if you go into a round with 8 strikes and someone else in a different group goes into a round with 7 strikes; you both get 4th place adding 3 strikes to your total. You would have 11 strikes and finish behind the person who ended the same round with only 10 strikes.
A tie for first place will result in a 1 GAME Tie Breaker randomly chosen by the tournament director. Ties between 2nd-8th position will be broken with a 1 GAME game tie breaker for the affected players to determine the trophy and/or cash received. Game will be selected by tournament director and the game itself will be either classic or modern based on what the next game choice would be been. When reporting this to IFPA for points those ties will be reported as such except a tie for 1st place. Also, the overall series points will be a tie as well. 1st Place is significant and will be reported as a win and not a tie. We will not be switching to all classics at 10PM as has been customary in the past at District 82. No playoffs or finals.
