Classic Take 2!

$10

We’re giving our “classic” format another go! The plan is to run matchplay qualifying followed by a single elimination finals bracket—but as always, we’ll stay flexible depending on numbers, timing, and how the night unfolds.

In matchplay, you’ll play across multiple rounds in groups, earning points based on your finishing position each game to determine rankings; then in single elimination finals, the top players enter a knockout bracket where it’s win and advance, lose and you’re out.

Adjusted Classic!

🕹️ A huge night at Replay Bar with a packed turnout and plenty of action on the machines!

After a few format tweaks to fit everyone in, the night delivered great competition and vibes all around — with Jamie Axelsen taking out his first IFPA win after a year of rapid improvement 👏

Big thanks to all players (especially our first-timers), our helpers on the night, and Replay Bar for hosting. Keen to see everyone back again soon! 🔥

We were back at Replay Bar this past Saturday for another night of competitive pinball. While the turnout was a little smaller than usual, the competition was still fierce and we had a great time trying out Group Elimination finals for the first time.

Huge thanks as always to Replay Bar, Andy, and our prize sponsors for supporting the event.
