$30

Waitlist Link: Waitlist closed

Tournament Details

  • June 17th, 2023 at the Lower Playfield in Goffstown NH.
  • Doors at 11 AM, Tournament starts promptly at noon.
  • 32 player limit
  • Registration begins May 12th at noon Eastern time.
  • $30 per player ($20 prize pool, $9 house fee for free play, electricity offset, snacks and drinks, $1 IFPA Endorsement fee) is due via Paypal/Venmo within 72h of registration. Cash at door accepted for players who have played 2 tournaments in the last year here — you must contact Derek or Jordan to make arrangements if you’re paying cash at door or some other way.

Our next tournament will be significantly smaller than WPPRmania was, but oddly enough, it’s the “Main Event” component of WPPRmania!

Starting at noon, we will run 12 rounds of 3 or 4 player Match Play matches, alternating between games that have historically run longer and shorter (not quite “Moderns” and “Classics”, but you get the idea). Scores will be PAPA style based on finish (7-5-3-1). After round one, pairings will continue in a tiered Swiss-style pairing for 11 more rounds. A tiebreak game will be played if necessary to split top 2 seeds or anyone playing into the top 8. Automatic tiebreakers will be used for all other positions. The top 8 players will move on to bank style 4-game, 4 Player Match Play finals, with the top 2 advancing to the next round. Players not making the final round will compete in two rounds of stallball for prizes!

For the WPPR hounds among us, this will calculate out to 160% TGP and will be in the neighborhood of 24 WPPRs to the winner. Such Wow! Much impress!

We anticipate, based on past tournaments, the Matchplay portion to take roughly 4-5 hours, and the finals to take an additional 2-3 hours. We have run this format before and feel confident in these time estimates.
