So let me get this straight. People in WI have been playing free tourneys for a while now and the possibility of having to pay $1 is going to make them not want to play anymore? Seems pretty cheap considering the amount of work that the IFPA people are doing for all their meetups. 
Too bad they don't have the cheapskates emoticon yet.
Quoted from InfiniteLives:no, I think one of the main point for WI is it is illegal to have any payouts at all and this puts their TDs in a sticky situation and is also why the events their are all free currently.
Also, its super shitty to internet shame people over money because everyone has different incomes and there is the ability to participate in this hobby at all ranges of financial wealth.
Then I guess in WI it would be considered an administrative fee? $1 per person doesn't seem unreasonable for the amount of work it takes to get the players rankings input. Also how much does it cost to play games in WI, I'm assuming its .50 minimum. If that dollar is really going to effect someone standard of living maybe they shouldn't be out spending money on playing pinball??
Quoted from earthvsmattGR:The cost I could care less about- it's what the cost is going to that I don't agree with. Seems asinine to take away the IFPA rankings to those who don't support it. If the $1 went to the upkeep of the IFPA I wouldn't care and I'd understand.
So the fact that they are not keeping a dime of the money & in fact putting it towards the State & National tourneys is whats bothering you? Id assume it would be the other way around.
