Monroe, MI 48162
Cost: It's a one time fee of $11 per player + coin drop for the games played
✨For All Ages and Skill Levels:
Our league is open to everyone, from beginners to advanced players. It's not about how well you play; it's about the joy of the game! Our format will have you competing against other players near YOUR SKILL LEVEL.
⏱️Short and Sweet Sessions:
We understand that not everyone has hours upon hours to spare for a pinball tournament. That's why our sessions are designed to be quick and exciting, allowing you to enjoy the game without monopolizing your entire day. We anticipate sessions to last 2 hours or less!
🎮League Format:
Grouping by Skill: Each session will see players grouped with others of similar skill levels. For Session 1, groups will be based on current IFPA rank, with unranked players placed at the bottom. In subsequent sessions, groups will be determined based on the cumulative number of points earned from previous sessions.
Session Format: A session consists of four 4-player games with the same individuals. The selection order is as follows:
Game 1: Highest seed picks
Game 2: Next highest seed picks
and so on for games 3 and 4
🔄Attendance and Session Flexibility:
Missing Sessions: Life happens! If you can't make a session, don't worry. We will only be counting the best 4 out of 6 sessions. This means you can miss 2 sessions without penalty.
Session Seeding: For seeding purposes, we will use your average to fill in any missing sessions. This ensures that even if you miss a session, your overall performance is still considered for fair and competitive grouping.
🏆Finals:
Eligibility: All players who participated in at least 4 sessions will play in the finals!
Division Breakdown: Finals will be divided into an A and B division. The top 50% (or less depending on turnout and must be divisible by 4) will go into A-division, while the remaining players will enter B-division.
A-Division Finals Format: A-division will compete in a 4-player Group Matchplay on four machines, using 7/5/3/1 scoring. The top 2 in each group will advance.
B-Division Finals Format: B-division will engage in a head-to-head, best-of-3, single-elimination bracket.
💰Cost and Payouts:
League Cost: $11 per person for the entire season, plus the normal coin drop to play the machines.
Payouts: We will be paying out the top 4 in A-division and the winner of B-division as follows (subtracting any expenses and IFPA fees):
A-Division: (prize pool collected from players)
1st: 40%
2nd::30%
3rd::20%
4th:10%
B-Division: (ULEKstore's donating B division prize pool)
1st: 40%
2nd: 30%
3rd: 20%
4th: 10%
**NOTE: ULEKstore's Pinball and Classic Arcade will be donating 50% of the prize pool collected from the tournament players. In other words... if 60 players participate and we collect $600 from the players - that money will be paid out to the A division players. ULEKstore's Pinball and Classic Arcade will then be donating $300 (half) and that money will be paid out to the top four B division plaeyrs!
