Qualification Rounds:

A player qualifies for finals by reaching or passing a target value of 30 points at which point the player no longer competes in the qualification rounds.
Match play will continue until all available finals positions are filled. If the time allotted for match play expires prior to filling all finals positions, the remaining positions will be filled based upon rankings tabulated at the conclusion of the final match play round.
Final Rounds:
Top 24 go to ‘A’ finals, next 8 go to ‘B’ finals.
Players with WPPR rankings 1-250 will be restricted from playing in ‘B’ finals.
Players that placed 1st in ‘B’ at previous PATL tournaments will be restricted from playing in ‘B’ finals.
4 Player groups with the same scoring as the qualification rounds (3/2/1/0).

Have a great weekend … See y’all next week!
And, good luck to all the PAPA 22 players this weekend!
But for water world you can get the game into an state where one of the things can be endless ball save (with an long delay after each drain) or even lockup with no ball searching.
hint (light dry land don’t start it but start the scoops 3 in a row mode) in the sink mode is where things can go very bad based on what you do.
there is at least one video on youtube.
I can make an one from an VPX table as well.
For the games with modified soren/tourney roms, is there a link that lists what is different from stock? I’m googling each and am not necessarily confident I’m finding the right info. Thanks
