**Pre-registrations is not required, but strongly encouraged. There will be a limited number of walk-in slots reserved for the day of the tournament.
This is much more than a tournament. Players become internationally ranked pinball players, enjoy breakfast and dinner, and get to battle it out on our curated pinball collection. All included in the cost of entry! We may even have a few surprises throughout the day.
At the conclusion of the qualifying portion of the event, players are invited to stick around and play as much pinball as they please while semi-finals and finals take place.
Skill Shot is also partnering up again with Project Pinball, a charity that puts pinball machine in children's hospitals. There will be some side tournaments going on to raise money for Project Pinball during the event so bring your $1 bills for some added competition.
Please mark yourself as "Going" or "Interested" to stay up-to-date on the tournament. Player registration will be updated as ticket purchases come in and a game list will be posted in the coming weeks. We can't wait to see everyone. Complete details are below.
Entry Process:
Pre-registrations is not required, but highly recommended. Due to the size of our location we are limited to 40 players. We will update the event page regularly with number of remaining spots.
Qualifying Format:
The tournament is matchplay format, in 4 player groups, for a total of 32 players. There will be 8 rounds of qualifying in which groups of 4 will compete against each other. Groupings are determined by Matchplay.events which will be the software facilitating the tournament. At the end of each round, 1st place will receive 4 points, 2nd place will receive 3 points, 3rd place will receive 2 points, and 4th place will receive 1 point. At the end of qualifying, the top 8 players with the most points will go to semi-finals.
Finals Format:
The top 8 players will be in a "PAPA Style" group matchplay finals, 3 games per round with 4-2-1-0 scoring. The top qualifier in each group will "drive the bus" and have first choice of game selection or play order for each game. Other players will make the remaining choices in qualifying order. Players may not choose all 3 games for the same round from the same era of games. Players may also not repeat game choices. The top 2 players from each semi-finals group will advance to the final group, which will determine the winner of the tournament. Prizes will be awarded to the top 3 players.
