There will be 8 machines used for the tournament. Players may choose any 5 of them to play a single qualifying game. After each game, the score is recorded on the player's card. 

The top 3 players on each machine (24 in total) qualify for the play-offs.

Multi-player games or multiple games on the same machine are not allowed.

If a player achieves a qualifying position on more than one machine, their highest position and their lowest numbered machine's score counts, and all their other scores are disregarded.  This may move players in positions 4 and below into qualifying positions, so keep watching the displays to see if you're in the play-offs.

Qualifying begins as soon as possible after we open at 10am, and ends at 4pm. No more qualifying games can be started after 3:45pm.  When all qualifying games have finished and the qualifiers announced, the first round of play-offs will begin.

It is your responsibility to make sure you play all your qualifying games in the time allowed.  Don't leave it too late or you may run out of time. Seriously, we have a lot of players this year, so play your games as early as you can.
