Vaccines won’t be available to the general public until at least April. So probably April or later.

Quoted from Russell:I used to live in Providence, but there wasn't a pinball scene there at that time. Where do you generally play? Are there any big locations?
There is FreePlay arcade- a barcade concept. There was 10 or 12 machines at Pizza J. And a collector in West Greenwich had a private club. Pizza J and the club are gone now.
Quoted from CrazyLevi:Why would the IFPA overlords start sanctioning events when they can’t play in them? Simple as that.
That’s a bit cynical. I think the IFPA people are just trying to recognize two things:
They aren’t worldwide ranking points if you can only play in some parts of the world
And they’re trying to keep people safe.

Quoted from bcrice2446:It’s time, if your scared stay home, time to sack it up and pull the trigger based on CDC recommendations today IFPA dude, [removed].
Anyone tried to create a competing world ranking site?
Yes, people have tried and they’ve been awful. Hobby isn’t big enough for two governing bodies.
And it’s not “scared”. Plenty of IFPA sanctioned competitors are under 12 and cannot be vaccinated. Plenty of IFPA competitors cannot be vaccinated due to medical issues or other pre existing conditions. The IFPA won’t open until more people can be vaccinated. USA has great vaccine numbers but in Canada the two shots are spaced 4 months apart due to availability. It’s a world ranking system not a US only thing.
