There was a suggestion to change up the grouping to make play go faster, unfortunately, I have programming built into all my entry sheets that will take too long to fix if we go this route. I have changed up the order of machines so hopefully play will go faster. Sorry but best I can do right now...

Event coordinators organize volunteers, designate scorekeepers, handle malfunctions and rulings, delegate responsibilities and authority, and otherwise work to ensure the smooth operation of the tournament. Event coordinators and designated officials are not excluded from tournament play but will be removed from any situation that directly affects their actual or potential standing as a player.

Maximum Participants: 36

I. Quick Overview

The DHHL Pin-Golf Championship is 1 round of competition for all players. All players compete in groups on Saturday, playing through 1 round of Pin-Golf made up of 9 Pin-Holes. Based on the Pin-Strokes earned over that round, with full entry, the top 16 qualifiers will advance to the A finals which will be 2 additional rounds of Pin-Golf. In addition, the top 8 players will advance to the B Final and also play an additional round of Pin-Golf. If there are less than 32 entries 50% of the qualifiers will go to A with the remainder of entries moved to the B to a maximum of 24 players advancing to either the A or B finals.

Scores from the qualifying rounds will be carried forward to the Final Rounds in A and B Division.

Over $1,000 in cash and prizes will be awarded assuming a full field of participants (36 players).

II. Competition Details

1. Divisions of Play

All players will be placed in the Open Division of play and be slotted in a time slot with a random foursome.

2. Fees

The entry fee into the DHHL Pin-Golf Championship is $30 per participant. All entry fees will be paid back in cash, trophies and additional prizes. All pinball machines will be on free play.

3. Prizes

Prizes will be awarded to the top 4 finishers in A Division, as well as the top 2 Players in B Division. The prize pool breakdown below is based on a maximum field of 36 players. Should less than 36 players participate, a similar percentage breakdown will be used based on the total funds raised through entry fees collected.

A Division:

1st place – $300 + title of DHHL Pin-Golf Champion + Trophy
2nd place – $200 + Trophy
3rd place – $120 + Trophy

Saturday, September 12, 11pm – 3pm -> GROUP QUALIFYING
Saturday, September 12, 3pm – 6pm -> A Div - Round 2 & B Division Finals
Saturday, September 12, 6pm – 9pm -> A Div - Round 3 Division Final

III. Format Details

1. Qualifying Rounds

Players will complete 1 rounds of 9 Pin-Holes during Qualifying. Each Pin-Hole will consist of a pinball machine with a target score. The number of balls it takes for the player to reach that target score will represent the number of Pin-Strokes earned for that hole. Should a player not reach the target score after a full game is completed, a stroke value will be determined based on how close the player was to the target score at the end of their game.

For example, the target score on ACDC may be set at 50 million points. A player will continue playing the game until he reaches 50 million points. If reached, the number of balls it took to reach that score will be recorded for that Pin-Hole. If the player fails to reach the target score after 5 balls are played, they will be awarded a score based on how close they were to that target:

40,000,000 – 49,999,990 points = 6 strokes [80% of par]
30,000,000 – 39,999,990 points = 7 strokes [60% of par]
20,000,000 – 29,999,990 points = 8 strokes [40% of par]
10,000,000 – 19,999,990 points = 9 strokes [20% of par]
0 – 1,999,990 points = 10 strokes [<20% of par]

A maximum of 10 Pin-Strokes per Pin-Hole will be enforced. Scores will be cumulative across all rounds played.

2. Advancing to Finals (Based on 36 entries)

At the end of the qualifying round the top 16 scores, will advance to the finals. A tiebreaker game will be played there are ties for 16th place.

In addition, the next top 8 players (17-24 place), will advance to the B Final. A tiebreaker game will be played if there are ties for 24th place.

For both the A Final and B Final, scores from the qualifying round will be carried forward. The final standings will consist of a player's total score across all 2 or 3 rounds of play.

3. Machines

Tournament games will consist of 9 games spanning all eras (Electromechanical through the latest DMD/LCD games). The game list will be published prior to the tournament so participants have plenty of time to get familiar with game rules and develop a strategy beforehand, although this list is tentative and is subject to change leading up to the event. ACDC, Alien Poker, Atlantis, Dr Who, Fish Tales, Getaway, Jackbot, Sopranos, Swords of Fury.

4. Order of Play

When starting Round 1, the person who is listed first on the scorecard will go first on the first Pin-Hole. For all subsequent holes the competitor with the lowest score at the previous Pin-Hole takes the honor of going first at the next Pin-Hole. The competitor with the second lowest score plays next and so on. If two or more competitors have the same score following a Pin-Hole, they play the next Pin-Hole in the same order as at the previous Pin-Hole. (Just like the rules of golf).

For the start of Rounds 2, the competitor with the lowest score in their group will have honors of going first to start the round. In any tied situations we will use a designated machine score, if still tied then a coin flip to determine position.

5. Extra Balls

All attempts will be made for extra balls to be disabled for all machines. Should a player earn an extra ball, they will play it as part of the same Pin-Stroke on that particular Pin-Hole.

2016 Alberta Provincial Pinball Championships
2016-02-13 11:30 - 21:30
The top 16 players with the highest IFPA WPPR points will play to compete for the title of provincial champion. This tournament is invite only and the location will be disclosed to those who have accepted the invitation.

III. Format of Matches

1. Seeding of finalists

Once all participants are finalized, the 16 players will be seeded based on their province rankings position at the end of the calendar year. In the event that any players are tied with the same amount of In-State WPPR points, we will look at the overall WPPR rank of those players as of the end of that calendar year

2. Machines Chosen

Elvis, Pink Panther, Aztec, Fire!, Wizard of Oz, Last Action Hero, Family Guy, Haunted House, Alien Poker, Metallica (LE), ACDC (LE), Jurassic Park, Batman - Dark Knight, Rollergames, Eight Ball, Centigrade 37

3. Head-to-Head Single Elimination Format

Players will be placed in a single elimination bracket once the seedings have been completed.

First round pairings are as follows:

1 vs. 16, 2 vs. 15, 3 vs. 14, 4 vs. 13,
5 vs. 12, 6 vs. 11, 7 vs. 10, 8 vs. 9

Second round pairings are as follows:

1/16 winner vs. 8/9 winner, 2/15 winner vs. 7/10 winner,
3/14 winner vs. 6/11 winner, 4/13 winner vs. 5/12 winner

Third round pairings are as follows:

1/8/9/16 winner vs. 4/5/12/13 winner,
2/7/10/15 winner vs. 3/6/11/14 winner

Fourth round pairing are as follows:

Two winners of round 3 play for the Alberta Championship
Two losers of round 3 player in the Consolation Final for 3rd/4th place.

Each match will be a best-of-seven. The higher seeded player will have choice of machine or position for the 1st game, with the loser of each subsequent game having choice of machine or order, until someone has won 4 games. A machine may not be played more than once in the same match unless there are less than 7 machines available. If that is the case, only after all machines have been chosen can either player select that game to be played for a second time within the same match. Once a player verbally announces their game choice, or chooses position, that decision will be locked in and cannot be changed.

Each player will have the opportunity for 30 seconds of practice time before starting every game of every match. This is to ensure that both players have a chance to get familiar with the machine.

The winner of the match advances to the next round, while the loser is eliminated.

The 3rd/4th place Consolation Final will be played as a best-of-three instead of a best-of-seven like all other rounds, using the same rules. All other finishing positions will also be played out in best-of-three matches to also determine 5th through 16th place.

4. Winners

First Place will also receive the title “Alberta Provincial Pinball Champion”.

This title remains in effect until the next annual Alberta Provincial Pinball Championship Series, or will expire after two years if the Alberta Provincial Pinball Championship Series is discontinued.

5. Prizing

The 1st, 2nd and 3rd place will receive trophies and the grand prize winner will receive free airfare (up to $500) and free entry to the IFPA State Championships in Las Vegas.

2nd Annual - 2016 Altitude Amusements PinGolf Championship
2016-09-10 00:00 - 2016-09-11 00:00 | Lucky's Lounge, 15004 Yellowhead Trail NW, Edmonton, Alberta, T5V-1A1, Canada
2016 Altitude Amusements Pin-Golf Championship Overview

The Die Hard Pinball League (DHPL) and Lucky’s Lounge are teaming up to host our annual Pin-Golf pinball tournament. With the success of last year’s tournament and a new title sponsor Altitude Amusements we are expanding the number of players and offering a lot more prizing and IFPA World Ranking Points.

The second annual 2016 Altitude Amusements PinGolf Championship will be held September 10, 2016 at Lucky’s Lounge in Edmonton.

Below you will find important information about the tournament including how to qualify, tournament format, prize breakdown and more! Any questions please contact the DHPL @ diehardpinball@gmail.com

WHERE ARE THE DHPL PIN-GOLF CHAMPIONSHIPS GOING TO BE HELD?
Lucky’s Lounge
15004 Yellowhead Trail NW, Edmonton, AB T5V 1A1

HOW DO YOU QUALIFY TO PLAY IN THE DHPL PIN-GOLF CHAMPIONSHIP?

The tournament is open for anyone to participate in. We are currently limiting the field to 36 players and players need to pre-register with the DHPL before September 8, 2016 or until the tournament is full.

Each participant is guaranteed 1 full round (9 machines) with their paid admission into the tournament. The top 12 players after these Qualifying rounds will advance to the Finals, which will be PAPA 3 machine, 4-player group match play continuing to use Pin-Golf scoring. The next top 8 players not in the top 16 will advance to the B consolation final.

WHAT GAMES WILL BE USED IN THE TOURNAMENT TO MAKE UP THE PIN-GOLF COURSE?

Tournament games will consist of 9 games spanning all eras (Electromechanical through the latest DMD/LCD games). The game list will be published prior to the tournament so participants have plenty of time to get familiar with game rules and develop a strategy beforehand, although this list is tentative and is subject to change leading up to the event.

QUALIFYING ROUNDS

Players will complete 1 round of 9 Pin-Holes during Qualifying. Each Pin-Hole will consist of a pinball machine with a target score. The number of balls it takes for the player to reach that target score will represent the number of Pin-Strokes earned for that hole. Should a player not reach the target score after a full game is completed, a stroke value will be determined based on how close the player was to the target score at the end of their game.

For example, the target score of CSI may be set at 10 million points. A player will continue playing the game until he reaches 10 million points. If reached, the number of balls it took to reach that score will be recorded for that Pin-Hole. If the player fails to reach the target score after 5 balls are played, they will be awarded a score based on how close they were to that target:

8,000,000 – 9,999,990 points = 6 strokes [80% of par]
6,000,000 – 7,999,990 points = 7 strokes [60% of par]
4,000,000 – 5,999,990 points = 8 strokes [40% of par]
2,000,000 – 3,999,990 points = 9 strokes [20% of par]
0 – 1,999,990 points = 10 strokes [<20% of par]

A maximum of 10 Pin-Strokes per Pin-Hole will be enforced.

The 12 players with the lowest Pin-Stroke total after their qualifying round will advance to the Final Round to be held Saturday night. The Final Round consists of 4-player group play, with 3 games per round using the same golf scoring.

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?

Entry fee is $40 per player, which is to be paid at the event site. Players will NOT be responsible for the coin drop of the tournament games as this is paid with your entry. All entry fees will be paid back in cash, trophies and additional prizes as well Die Hard Pinball and Altitude Amusements adds the prize pool for additional prizing.

2019-01-19 11:00 - 18:00 | Lucky's Lounge, 15004 Yellowhead Trail NW, Edmonton, Alberta, T5V-1A1, Canada
The IFPA North American Championship Series is an annual pinball competition with players qualifying throughout the entire calendar year. Included in the NACS are the IFPA State Championship Series in the United States, IFPA Provincial Championship Series in Canada and the IFPA District Championship Series in Washington D.C. At the end of each calendar year, the top 16 ranked players (or 24) with the most WPPR points from each state will qualify for the playoffs, where they will play for the title of IFPA State/Province/District Champion within that area.

From there, these champions will be invited to play for the IFPA North American Pinball Championship, details of which can be found in the Official Rules.

All 2018-19 IFPA State/Provincial/District Championships will be held on Saturday, January 19, 2019. With all of the Championships being held on the same day, no player will be eligible to compete for multiple titles, however it is possible for someone to qualify for a Championship in a State/Province/District in which they do not live in.

Monthly open tournament series.
2019-01-26 11:00 - 16:00 | Lucky's Lounge, 15004 Yellowhead Trail NW, Edmonton, Alberta, T5V-1A1, Canada
The first of our monthly open tournaments where we showcase a different format each month. January’s tournament is a $10 buy-in ($1 goes to IFPA and the rest goes to prize pool) 10 strike progressive tournament. The basic rules are if you win you match you get 0 strikes, 2nd place in your group is 1 strike, 3rd place in your group is 2 strikes and 4th place in your group is 3 strikes. Once you hit 10 strikes or more you are eliminated from the tournament. The last player remaining in the tournament is the winner. If multiple people are eliminated at same time the player with less strikes is the higher placement. If the strikes are the same for eliminated players it will be a tie, unless it is for a cash spot in which case a one game tiebreaker will be played to determine the higher finisher.

Doors open at 11am

tournament starts at 11:30am
