Quoted from extraballingtmc:I wonder why the women need a separate tournament? By participating are they admitting they can't compete with the men
I know (hope) you're joking, but please don't start shit. This is actually a controversial topic 
As long as less women turn up than men, I'm happy for a separate tournament to be run for them. If this were a female-dominated hobby, I'd advocate the reverse. Giving incentives for smaller groups to turn up to your event are a good thing.
Quoted from extraballingtmc:Was kidding but also curious as gender doesn't have any advantage for pinball.
Doesn't matter---adding a women's division can still encourage more women to turn up, and given that most places have very low female counts that's probably a good thing, especially if you can get numbers up high enough that they become self-sustaining.
