For those interested, this weekend is the EPC in Boras, Sweden. There are to be 256 players in attendance including a hand full of us Brits. The EPC is one of only 3 current tournaments with Major status still going on the annual pinball calendar (think like tennis), the others being The Open World Championships and the IFPA World Championships.

Tim is planning on doing Fantasy Pinball again like he did for the UK Open. I will post the link here once he releases the signup, it will be a quick turnaround so get your teams in!

Info on the tournament can be found at https://www.europinball.org/index.php

There will be streaming of the event at https://twitch.tv/inkandmos and brackets will also be at https://matchplay.events/live

Things kick off on Thursday and Friday with pre tournaments and also the team tournament.

We haven’t organised anything yet, but hopefully we will be able to put together a strong British team for the Friday night tournament, maybe those interested in being part of the team could say if they are keen here. @PUP @Moonraker @Neil McRae @Tilt_Birmingham @DanLewell @Jem @Kate Rothwell-Jackson (Kate I’ve tagged you as I’m not sure if Jim is on here, but maybe he fancies it?). I might have missed someone? Depending on numbers we may be able to put 2 British teams in, obviously if people are keen and if there is space (max 16 teams). Teams will be based on IFPA rank and availability. We have good history in the team tournament in Sweden, I’m sure Pete will post the pic 😉

Anyway, looking forward to it!

@roadshow16 we are on the waiting list rather than confirmed places. Roy is dangerously close to the cutoff - I think it's a bit late to make arrangements and book everything at this stage though...
 
So a little update for those guys following along on matchplay. This tournament is going to run loooooooooong. As in, I wouldn't be surprised if we will be playing at 4am.

Andy is through in the main and made it through and has 2 byes in the classics 🎉

I'm through in main and have one bye in the classics 🎉

Peter is through in main with a double bye 🎉

Kirk has one bye in the classics 🎉

Jeremy is through in the classics 🎉

There are still a bunch of qualifying groups to play and then it will be 2 rounds of the main/classics finals
