This will also be an “IFPA Certified” event and will attract a 25% point boost, with the potential of a 50% boost for Certified+ (pending number of entries).

Qualifying:
*Players will play a total of 24 games from a bank of around 25-30 different machines with all scores to count towards qualifying score.
*Players must play at least 18 different machines for their qualifying, however, cannot play the same machine more than twice.
*Players are to assign themselves to a queue on Matchplay prior to starting a game.

All games are to be played as single player only.

Points allocated for each machine will be based on the INDISC system which is as follows: 100 for 1st, 97 for 2nd, 95 for 3rd, 94 for 4th, 93 for 5th, and so on.

The Top 24 players will advance to the finals.

Ties for any placings in the Top 24 (except for 24th) will be broken by the player with the highest individual game points score (ie. 100 points).

Ties for 24th place will be broken by a single game playoff on a machine to be drawn at random.

Finals:
*Top 24 players will advance to a PAPA Matchplay style finals, with the Top 8 players receiving a first-round bye.
*Each group will play 4 games, with the top seed in each group getting the opportunity to choose 2 games for their round, with the 2nd & 3rd seeds getting 1 choice each.
*Players with machine choice are unable to choose the same game more than once per round and cannot choose the same machine more than twice for the duration of the finals.
*Top 2 players in each group advance to the next round, with the other 2 players in each group being eliminated.
*Ties for any of the Top 2 positions in any group will again be broken by a single game playoff on a random machine.
*The player with the most number of points after the final round is completed will be declared the winner.
