[FSPA] THIS SUNDAY! Home Tournament (remember those?)

[Stephanie Traub]

Yes it’s Easter, but if you don’t have anything better to do (I clearly
don’t) come out to Doug’s house right off the Wheaton metro (seriously like
two blocks) and check out his great home collection! See details below…and
no more mask requirements so to celebrate I’ve agreed to TD!

Advanced registration required so please see details below and email Doug
with any questions.

Hello Department of Pinball players,

Our next WPPR Inflation Pinball Party is happening on Sunday April 9th!
Registration opens on Monday April 3rd at noon. Stephanie Traub will be our
Tournament Director.

There will be a few changes to the rules of the house and the event,
summarized here for your convenience:

1. Masks are encouraged but are no longer required in the house.
2. No practice or casual games allowed during the tournament.
3. Doors open at 10:30am, with practice allowed only from 10:30-11:00am.
4. Entry fee of $25 is now paid in advance via paypal when you register.
5. The breakdown of the entry fee has changed. $4 is now marked as "in lieu
of coin drop" and will be used for machine maintenance. Prize fund has been
reduced by $4 so as to keep the entry fee the same.

Full Details:

Tournament Date: April 9th, 2023
Doors open at 10:30am, the tournament begins promptly at 11am.

Prior registration is required, send an email to
DepartmentofPinball at gmail.com to register once registration opens on Monday
April 3rd at noon. You will receive a reply telling you that you are
registered, and to please pay the $25 entry fee via paypal.

Masks are encouraged, but are NO LONGER REQUIRED in the house.

Limited to 24 players. Once we hit 24 registrations, I will start a waiting
list.

Entry fee is still $25, broken down thus:
$12 Food (Pizza, chips, veggies and dip, soda, coffee)
$8 Prize Fund
$4 In lieu of coin drop for machine maintenance
$1 IFPA / MD State Champion prize fund

There will be no practice or casual games allowed during the tournament.
Practice is only allowed from 10:30am-11:00am, before the event begins.

Bring your own alcohol. There is a fridge for drinks in the garage that you
are free to use. Please do not go into the kitchen fridge. I sometimes keep
human heads in there.

Qualifying: 6 double rounds, or 12 games played in 4 player groups. Top 8
players qualify for Finals.
Finals: PAPA style finals, 4 player groups, 4 games, top seed picks all
games from a predetermined list of games, or order.

This will score us a TGP of 160%!
Qualifying: 12 rounds of 4 player = 24 games x 4% = 96%.
Finals: 8 games of 4 player = 16 games x 4% = 64%.
96+64 = 160% TGP

Free parking at the event. The address and a map of parking will be sent
out before the event.

Twelve pinball machines! The current lineup is:
Weird Als Museum of Natural Hilarity
Deadpool Premium
Avengers: Infinity Quest LE
