Tournament is going to be known as Main Street Mayhem and will have qualifying Saturday August 29th and Sunday August 30th, with finals to follow the conclusion of qualifying hours on Sunday. The tournament is being hosted at Main Streer Amusements in Lafayette, IN. In addition to the tournament games there will be 20+ other pins available for play.
The tournament is aligned with Project Pinball http://www.projectpinball.org/ which raises money to put pinball machines into children's hospitals so the children can enjoy themselves. There will be a registration fee (TBD) and then coin drop for the machines.
There will be two main tournaments running simultaneously, and one side tournament.
Tournament 1: "The Sternament" will be a bank of six modern Stern pinball machines, top 5 game scores count towards your qualifying. Games will include Tron LE, Star Trek Premium, The Walking Dead Premium, WWE Wrestlemania LE, Metallica, and another game to be announced in the near future.
Tournament 2: "The Wizards Brawl" will be a bank of six games across the eras of pinball, top 5 game scores count towards your qualifying. Games will include Captain Fantastic, Spanish Eyes, Bobby Orr Power Play, Tri-Zone, Medieval Madness, and another game to be announced in the near future.
Tournament 3: "America's Most Haunted Battle" will be a side tournament run only on Spooky Pinball's America's Most Haunted. Custom trophies will be awarded to the top 3 high scores over the 2 days.
All tournaments will be run using Karl DeAngelo's Drains Tournament Manager software, the very same software used to run official PAPA events. The main tournaments will award official IFPA points, while the AMH side tournament is for trophies only. Wrestlemania scores will also be eligible for the WWE King of the Ring tournament being run by the IFPA now through Dec. 31st, 2015. First Prize is pretty amazing.
More details to come in the near future. If any questions please feel free to contact me. -Tommy Skinner
