Hey folks! Checking in with an update on the Northwest Pinball Championships.
New things relevant to this forum:
Based on feedback, we increased the amount of players qualifying in the Open Division to 24 and removed the B division. This means that those who have generally been the B division qualifiers will now make it into the Open finals for a shot at the big money and big prizes!
The top 8 qualifiers in Open will now receive a bye to the second round of the finals!
The top 4 women in Open qualifying will qualify for the Women’s finals in addition to Open!
Everyone who makes it to any part of the finals on Sunday will get a cash prize!
Split Flipper Division, Charity Division, daily high score tournaments, and other fun diversions have replaced the traditional Novice tournament!
We’ll be raffling off swag and other fun prizes at the event so you can win even if you lose!
Shirt design is still in progress, but so far it’s looking great!
We’re hard at work up here in the Emerald City preparing for the tournament. The games are starting to come together (OK, maybe a little more than “starting”) and I’m not exaggerating at all when I say that this year’s lineup is quite possibly one of the most dialed tournament lineups you’ll ever see! We’ll be doing the same contest that we did last year where players can guess the games from hints for free entries!
As a little easy warmup, here’s game 1!
As usual, if you aren’t planning on attending or are involved in the planning of NWPC, you aren’t eligible! Don’t spoil it, ya dingus!
With a main tournament where top 24 qualify, a classics tournament, side tournaments (including split-flipper and daily high scores), there’s a reason for everybody to come experience the great Pacific Northwest… to play pinball!
Fortunately, Mt. Rainier is not as active as Nyiragongo (in the Congo). Wouldn’t want the pinballs to melt in the lava. Waiting to see next machine hint …
EDIT: Kathy Gagno guessed it right, MUSTANG added to the line up.
Here is our next game announcement, as done previously whoever guess this first win 5 free entries for Open or Classic (max 40 free entries for anyone over all events)!
You can go to the main event post on FB to post your answers and get a chance to win!
Also, we are announcing a promotion for ANY OUT OF STATE players, come to NWPC 2016 with your out of state driving license and get 5 FREE ENTRIES!
Freshly back from Pinburgh, Here is our next game announcement, as done previously whoever guess this first win 5 free entries for Open or Classic (max 40 free entries for anyone over all events)! One guess per clue (which come one a day)

If you are not coming to NWPC please abstain form playing and organizers obviously can’t play.
