https://app.matchplay.events/tournaments/186559/registrations

All of the pinball machines are set for free play (no coin drops needed).

Play in as much or as little as you like.
Its a PARTY first, with a little pinball mixed in!

MAIN TOURNAMENT
Qualifying is "group matchplay style". This means you'll be playing in four player groups on multiple machines.
We will play as many rounds as we can in 4 hours (based on time the round starts).

Playoffs/Finals will LIKELY be Group Elimination/PAPA Style, which is similar to the above, but with lower performing players being eliminated as we go forward (until there's a winner).

THERE WILL BE PLAYOFFS FOR BOTH A AND B DIVISIONS SO ALL SKILL LEVELS CAN PLAY AND WIN!

We have PRIZES for the B Division players and ...
... ALSO random door prizes for ANYONE in the tournament regardless of standings/rankings!

The B Division is restricted as follows:
-- players in the top 1000 in the IFPA rankings are ineligible for B division
-- players who have placed in the TOP 3 in any of the 3 most recent DFW Pinball League events are ineligible for B division
-- THUS: many of the top players are excluded from the B Division so that ANYONE CAN WIN!

BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE!!!
Based on the standings after ROUND 3 from the tournament's qualifying we also hold a:
----- "KIDZ FINAL" -----
This is ONE GAME played by kids aged 16 and under for a various age appropriate prizes!
To insure that its fair and everyone can win, a child is EXCLUDED from the KIDZ FINAL for next event after they WIN, thus giving other kids a chance to win too.
The KIDZ Final is unsanctioned/exclusive from the tournament playoffs. That means kids can play in BOTH if they want!

FOOD:
POTLUCK -> We might get pizza such, but bring main courses and appetizers please.
We'll have water and non-alcoholic beverages.
BYO on the alcoholic beverages, but behave please.

HOSTS ADDITIONAL NOTES:
For people with severe allergies, we do have 5 cats.
Be kind! Pins break and sometimes need work. My collection is a work in progress and I’m always doing my best to keep them working well.
I’m a very non-competitive person so I know very little about tournaments.
I love the games and sharing it with people, which is why I’m opening up my home to the local community.

PARKING NOTES:
There is a city park across the street from us. It is a good spot to park, weather allowing. I’d ask that people DON'T PARK ON TALBOT, as it is a busy street that connects 3 developments and I’d hate for anyone to get damage from the neighbors that zip through.
