All, after feedback from many entrants to the the UK Classics, we are pleased to announce a change to the finals format of the Classics to increase the WPPR value.
As before, qualifying will be a best 6 games, with each player having a maximum of 10 entries.
The finals will be the top 12 players. The top 4 players will get a bye to the semi-finals.
Players 5-12 will be split into two groups by qualifying position and will play 3 matchplay rounds. Top two from each group goes through (IFPA Scoring). These players will then meet those who qualified with bye's into two groups with top two players qualifying for a final round.
All games will be chosen at random.
In order to facilitate this, those who qualify for the Classic Finals will need to be at Flipout for 08:00 on the Sunday morning.

Is anyone staying around the Croydon area on the Friday and Saturday evenings? I’m thinking of staying the thurs fri and sat nights as otherwise I would return home on the Friday only to travel back down to Croydon the next day! In addition I might even start my classics qualifying on the Friday evening finishing it off during the Saturday day time.
If anyone fancies getting together during the day on the Friday to do something please let me know since club won’t open it’s doors till 6pm!
I look forward to hearing from you all!

So can we park at the club tomorrow and Thursday? If not, anyone got suggestions as we're not staying locally.
Are any hotels walkable as still haven't booked one for Saturday night

Welcome folks, we're looking forward to seeing you as the 5 days of pinball starts today. See you at Flipout at 6:30!
Good luck all.
Fantastic effort pulling this together. Competitive pinball sure has come a long away from those first league meets back in 2006.
Nice video, even with the rather downbeat depressing music [emoji3]

It’s invigorating!
London calling and our house didn’t quite give the emotional bond and I only had 20 minutes to do it.

They were set to brutal!
You had to be top of your game to have a fighting chance - which I clearly wasn't last night [emoji3] I think that was the fastest 15 games of pinball I have ever played [emoji23]
Really enjoyed the evening.
Flip Out is such a great venue now - hat tip to all
