Hey Hilton,
For best of the rest, how are you doing seeding? Will it be based on your IFPA rank?
Thanks.
Tom.

the plan is to use WI 2015 SCS rankings as they are now. I have a plan for a slightly modified inverse seed to create the 4 packs. Basically something that mixes it up, but will allow us to get brackets moving on that if SCS starts to run long.
Things may change if we do not get 48 people signed up. I need them to finalize the WI SCS so we can figure out whom is playing in that first, and if people want to do trophies to 16. After that then I plan to get things moving on BotR.

When are you sending out emails to SCS? Assuming you have to wait for IFPA to finalize all remaining tournament results and get you the information.

final line up wont be solidified until probably the day of (route machines are tough to keep running
and not sure exactly total # that will fit in back room comfortably)
The majority of the line up is on site already. Assume 1 or 2 may swap out by then and if things work out then 1 or 2 may be added just for the event, but the majority are all there now.)
HS2, SP, AMH, Cyclone, RK, Taxi, goldstrike, BW, STpro, KISS, SWEP1
Good chance Taxi will be out by then and replaced with something new.
I am hoping we can bring in an additional EM and a gottlieb as I would like more diversity in that departments for SCS.
If anyone has a cool and good playing machine they want to offer up to bring over then please message me offline to discuss.
I could probably bring my Gottlieb Melody on Friday to have in the line up. Easy to learn, hard to master. And, it's not shocking people now!

I've still got nervous ticks from that game.
It was fun though.

Yup, need to wait on IFPA and I am assuming they will not send me anything until Jan 9 as that is when they lock down everything from the previous year.
I want to get stuff rolling and would like to get working on trophy orders but that really depends on if people want to all chip in to get trophies made for the top 16.
I suppose if you are in the top 16 and want to post here or shoot me a message that you are in for the 2-15 trophies then that is helpfull for planning.
Josh sent me the same image that he uses for 1st place and I was thinking it would be cool to get ones made slightly smaller with 2-16th place. Guessing around $15-20 extra in cost per player but I have not priced it all out just yet.

waiting on a handful to respond and confirm or relinquish their spot. Please do us all a favor and let me know ASAP so planning and logistical things can continue in the background.
