Hello from Finland!
We will arrange a pinball tournament here in Helsinki with following specs:
K15 Open (Saturday&Sunday November 10-11th 2012)
The location is a bunker in downtown Helsinki near St. John's Church (Johanneskyrkan).
Qualifications on Saturday (11-19): choose 5 games out of 11 possible. Play 11 attempts total (max 3 attempts per game). Only the best attempt of a player for a game counts. Points per game 25,20,16,13,21,11,10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1.
Play-offs on Sunday (12-17) for 16 best qualifiers. Double elimination bracket. Best of three games on winners side, best of one on losers side. The best player from winners and losers side then meet in the final (best of 5 games). The games will be drawn randomly from the qualification bank.
Since the location isn't that big, we will set a player limit of max 32 players in order of registration.
Registration will open later on pre-announced time and date. Instructions to find the location and the full rules document will be given out to players after registration.
WPPR points will be given out. Entry fee is 15e. Machines will be all DMD games.
MCR visited the location a year ago, maybe he can chime in and tell how he liked the location and quality of the
games. And we have gotten bigger and better since then...
Questions? Ask here, email me at marble@pinball.fi or ask me directly this weekend in Borås.
I apologize for quite short notice, hopefully some of you could still make the trip. Welcome
