The next Pinball Office event will be on Sunday 25th June!

As well as being an official IFPA event, this event is also part of the UK Championship Series schedule. As always, this event is open to both new and veteran players, though because of it being part of the UKCS we are expecting high demand and for tickets to sell fast! There will be max 44 players attending (this includes the organisers, so there will be less than that available for sale).

Registration will be £20 per person, which includes free parking on site. Registration opens at midday on Sunday 7th May on the Pinball Office website (first come first served): https://www.thepinballoffice.co.uk

We will have prizes for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place. We will also have under 16s prizes.

Competition Details

Doors open at 10:00, with the Matchplay qualifying starting at 10:30.

The format for qualifying will be 3 or 4 player matches across 12 rounds (based on previous events, this means qualifying will finish around 17:00). Qualifying matches will be scored as 7-5-3-1 for 4 player matches or 7-4-1 for 3 player matches. The top 8 players will then progress to the finals. Final games will be chosen randomly and placement is in reverse qualifying order.

The top 2 players in qualifying will have a bye to the final.

Players 5-8 will player in a single game quarter final, with the winning 2 players going into the semi-final.

The semi-final will consist of a single match, with the 2 players from the quarters playing qualifying 3-6. The winning 2 then go to the final.

The final will be 4 players playing 3 games, scored in a 4-2-1-0 format (with a tie breaker game if there's a draw).

If positions 1-8 include more than 8 players, a tie break game will be played on a randomly allocated machine. Players will be eliminated until only the required amount qualifies for the finals.

I know we are all just recovering from PinHaus yesterday - but just a quick reminder that registration opens for the next Pinball Office tournament next Sunday at midday. Hope to see everyone busy on their phones at EC! :)

Try and find the phone signal spot at EC will be the name of the game ;)

Would anyone like to join us for a curry after the competition? Let me know if you'd like to come and I'll book a table. So far, me, David and Dan Pocklington are in :)

Very well done to Lucy, Nathan, Dan and Tim for making the final. Look forward to seeing the results.
 
Was a fantastic day of pinball yesterday, would very happily visit the pinball office again so many thanks to Claire, David and Chris.

Having a tournament settled on Big Buck Hunter was certainly an entertaining way to end it all! The curry was great after too 😀
