Tournament Details:

● Max of 16 players, playing in a Head-to-Head Competition

● Flipper Frenzy tournaments are, as the name implies, a ‘frenzied’ tournament. Players will be playing head-to-head matches on as many games as possible for 2 hours straight (frenzy time may be paused at the tournament director’s discrepancy).

● When the tournament starts, head-to-head matches are created using Match Play as the tournament format, and any player(s) not assigned to a match are placed in a queue.

● Each winner receives 1 point and each loser receives 0 points for each match played.

● When each match ends, tournament will progress as follows:

   ○ Player 1 (regardless of win or loss) will become Player 2 on said game.

   ○ Player 2 will then go to the bottom of the queue.

   ○ The player at the top of the queue will become Player 1 on a new game. 

   ○ The tournament will progress in this manner until the timer runs out. 

● Finals

   o The Top 4 players with the most net wins (total wins minus total losses) will advance to the Finals.

   o Fewest losses will be used for a tie for finals qualifying. Ties will be broken by comparing the number of lost matches.

   ○ The Top 4 players will play 3 rounds of 4-player Match Play across 3 different Pinball machines, using Pinburgh scoring (3/2/1/0) to determine the winners!

   ○ In the event of a tie-breaker for the Finals, tied players will play a single game (as chosen by the tournament director), where the final scoring positions break the tie.

   o 1st place wins a brand-new Stern Translite and 2nd through 4th place each win cash prizes.

●The PinHall opens at 4:00pm and the tournament meeting will begin at 6:15pm.
