CAX Main Tournament Experience : California Extreme Pinball
The main tournament is what they call card based. This means that your score card contains your scores from 5 unique machines out of the machine titles that are sleeted for the main tournament.
You will receive a point value based on your scores rank compared to all of the other competitors scores. The top score on a particular machine earns 200 point, second place earns 195 points, third place 192 points and 4th and beyond earn one less point per position all the way down though one point.
With this tournament scoring format you ideally want the top score on each of the 5 games you play, because on the top 24 players will qualify for the finals.
The maximum number of cards you can play is 5 and I chose to play all 5 of mine. Many of the best players only played one card and qualified as top seeds, and even though the 3rd card I played was the card that cored well enough for me to qualify, I played all of my 5 cards simply to get more time on each game to learn how each game played.
The highlight of my qualifying round was getting the grand champion score on Medival Madness of 119 million because that score remained the highest score on that machine through the entire 3 day tournament including the finals.
Although I have played well enough to qualify for the finals in other major tournaments in the past, it has been a few years since I have had the opportunity to advance into the head to head finals, so I was thrilled to have qualified for the main tournament at this event,
The finals will be Professional Amateur Pinball Association format commonly referred to as PAPA style.
With PAPA style groups, four players will play head to head on a single machine, with the top score receiving 3 points, second place score receiving 2 points, third place score receiving 1 point and last place receives zero points.
There is also a classics tournament that will be played on older machines with the tournament format commonly known as best game format. I focused my time on the main event and even though I played each game in the classics tournament once I technically could have qualified for classics as well, but my scores on playing each of the classics machines only one time did not advance me in the classics tournament to the classics finals.
