Yes you can do that. Select Saturday only and then entry for the tournaments. You can also play the qualifiers for the Peoples bank.
So its £54.49 for 5 competition entries prior to 1st July, how much will additional entries cost?
Don't forget it'll be £40 to enter the hall. Sorry for a 3 day weekend pass.I'm guessing as Neil has followed the INDISC format, it's limited ticket qualifying, not pump and dump. So that £50 buys a load of entries in 5 tournaments? But, let's all be calm, he will be along shortly to clarify
Can buy a admission ticket for Saturday, and ticket to enter comps, that works out at £88Is it possible to enter the tournament without paying for a weekend pass? I doubt it, so that's £98.20 minimum to play in the UK open?
But the finals are on the Sunday - so if you're expecting to qualify, it looks like you'd need a weekend ticketCan buy a admission ticket for Saturday, and ticket to enter comps, that works out at £88
You have seen me play, I’m definitely not getting to any finalsBut the finals are on the Sunday - so if you're expecting to qualify, it looks like you'd need a weekend ticket
That doesn't fit in with Neil's statement of unlimited entries...I'm guessing as Neil has followed the INDISC format, it's limited ticket qualifying, not pump and dump.
Format will be unlimited qualifying - we will initially open up with a discounted bundle offer for first 80 registrations.
Any ideas on how many free play machines you'll be expecting there?

UK Pinball Open
Ladies and Gentleman - its the greatest show on earth in the greatest city on the planet. Welcome to the UK Pinball Open.www.eventbrite.com
Is it possible to enter the tournament without paying for a weekend pass? I doubt it, so that's £98.20 minimum to play in the UK open?
It's reading as very expensive!
Might have to give it a miss
I have no idea how much the big comps in USA or Europe cost though.
I think a few peoples concerns are that if this attracts the top international players (which I do think is a great thing!) A lot of us wonder if it's worth coming as we'll most likely not qualify for any of the head to head rounds and be left having spent a lot on accomodation and the full weekends with nothing else to do.
I suppose that's the same for everyone but the kind of players who will come will be those relatively confident in their skills.
aren't you going to fulda? I seem to remember that being €150? Slightly cheaper per tournament but not a huge amount in it.
Yes, I am. That 150 Euro is for 7 tournaments (not 4 pump and dump tournaments) with 4 days of one main meal supplied (15 euro per meal), supporting a well known pinball venue.
There's a few $ signs that still need converting to £'sworth a read! although I've only just finished it so it might have some errors!
Tournament Rules
I. QUICK OVERVIEW The UK Pinball Open tournaments consist of open card-based qualifying and match play final rounds. During open qualifying, each player may purchase as many cards as they like to a…playpinball.uk
Neil.
yeah Kevlar pointed that out! one other section that's a bit iffy tooThere's a few $ signs that still need converting to £'s
Sorry, I am quite confused by this whole thing!So if you want to take part the best deal is :
1: Buy a 3 day pass
2: Buy entry to the competition
That will cost you £90 Its then £5 per ticket but I'm sure I'll do bundles on these.
If you buy later it gets a lot more pricey and you have to pay the eventbrite fees.
Neil.
