Elimination head to head play. This format will be followed until there is one Pinball Wizard, "There can be only ONE". The rules for head to head play include NO bang backs or death saves. We will follow the same format as the qualifying round but this time the players will play for best three out of five games. For each round the winner will advance to the next round. The final two players will play against each other on a game that is randomly drawn. If there is an odd number of players, the final round could end up with three players. If the final round ends up being three players, the first player to win four games will be the tournament champion.

    

Anyone helping to maintain or repair games will not be allowed to compete. Anyone complaining will be disqualified. In other words if you don't like our rules then start your own tournament.

Anyone registering in the past and not showing up will be barred from future May Day Tournaments unless they have fully resolved the issue to the tournament director's satisfaction prior to the day of the tournament.

    If an easy problem happens to a game like a stuck ball, it will be unstuck, ball returned to shooter lane and play continues. If a bigger problem occurs, game play is started over on a new machine with credits refunded. All final judgments, rulings, and decisions shall be determined by the tournament director.
