Entry is $5 and the format is based off PAPA Style qualifying. Players are allowed one entry. The top 12 qualifiers will then playoff in the finals. Qualifying will start at 7:00 and entries will not be sold after 8:00. Every player will receive 3 score cards and then have a choice of which 3 machines they would like to play. At any given location there will be no more than 5 machines to choose from. Each player will play each game chosen 1 time. After a player has completed their games the scores will be recorded and boints will be awarded based on the ranking of each score.

Each game will have boints given out starting with the top score receiving 50 boints, 2nd highest score receiving 45 boints, 3rd highest score receiving 42 boints, and from then on, 4th, 5th, 6th etc. will receive 40 boints, 39 boints, 38 boints and so on respectively. Player’s boints are totaled up to determine their total score and ranking.

Players are encouraged to play early and not wait until the last moment to play. The final ticket will be sold no later than 8:00. A player’s final game must be started no later than 9:30.

Machines are route games and will be played as route games. If a machine goes down prior to 8:00 the machine will be pulled from competition and those that played that machine will have to choose an alternate machine. If it is past 8:30 and a machine goes down all scores will be locked in. Anyone waiting for that machine will have to choose an alternate machine.

The finals will consist of the top 12 qualifiers. The first round of playoffs will consist of 3 player games.

Group A- 4, 9, 12
Group B- 5, 8, 11
Group C- 6, 7, 10

The final round will consist of the winner of the second round along with the top three qualifiers.

And its my birthday.

Since it's PAPA style we will probably only use WCS'94, FT, JD and CFTBL.

BR isn't 100%, and SoF is unfair if you get to start a game with two balls locked. Unless it releases them after each game, then we can use it to have 5 games. Would make for a lot closer scoring too.

hurr durr, what day is this?

Tomorrow. Tuesday. 17th.

I was there earlier tonight. JD was off. I'm pretty sure SoF was letting out all locked balls after each game. Played three games on CFTBL... every time when FILM letters were complete, I had to hit the kiss or slide multiple times before it started multiball. Seemed to be about a 50 percent chance it would register. Didn't play any of the other machines.

Also, Jake and Dennis thanks for the help running it last night. And anyone else who was taking scores!

Thanks Arron. That was a blast. Sorry I threw your clipboard Dennis. ROM has been a real slack anger management sponsor. Think I am gonna ask Lampros.

That was the funniest shit right there. For the most part machine throwing has been down as of late. I think we all know deep down Rom wants to hit machines and throw clipboards himself, that's why he allows it.

Bah. I allow nothing. I reprimanded Dannyb, and I had advised him beforehand not to throw stuff or push machines. Lampros was shoving machines and punching glass all night, and it screws up other people and is annoying as shit. lead by example.

That was a fun tourney, though! With a good turn-out.

Standard really needs to either remove a machine, or figure out how to get more space between them. I know I say that all the time... that place is way too tight.

Great lineup but machines are way to close together.

I have a feeling you will be poking bears quite a bit.
Speaking of hairy dudes, Slamtilt could have a hair Trackie!!! I bet it would smell like authentic Romanian. Speaking of stinking Romanians, if I get under bid again by one. I might be getting my blade wet.

I thought I was slick referencing the fact that Steve would be having sex with fat hairy men, unsafely I might add. But ROM shut him down, let's dissect the post.
ROM defends the CFF colors, AND sweaters. Then corrects himself and tells KGB that in fact his shit does stink, and that ROM is tired of smelling it.
WOW, this might be my favorite post of all time.
I think ROM may have made the perfect post.
OK OK OK ROM, now do me.

Thanks for not tearing into all those inaccurate statements I just made, slamTB. That would have been really embarrassing for me.
of course, if you had, I would have just edited your text and then deleted your account. It's my site, after all . btw, I hope your "What sucks? Everything! cff conspiracies & other rants by the 1 guy who isn't afraid to tell it like it is" site is coming along well. I can't wait to see it!!

Quite being pussies and pinball battle!
