CTWC Kansas City Regional

Hello everyone! Pumpyheart here. Looking forward to the upcoming Kansas City regional at Kansas City Retro at the Overland Park Convention. Happy to share a few more details on qualifying, schedule, and tournament play!

Qualifying:

This tournament will feature both online and in-person qualifying using a modified number of maxouts and/or top score method typical of other CTWC regionals. However, a time limit will be imposed after the first maxout.

In-person qualifiers will not feature traditional rental stations. You are able to attempt to qualify as often as you would like after checking in by getting in line and qualifying at the first available open station. If you achieve a maxout, you will be given a spot on stream with one hour to attempt to raise your qualifier.

Online qualifiers will be 60 minutes long. You must display your hand, face, and a timer on stream. You are able to complete your last game after the timer hits 0. If you achieve a maxout during the qual, the results of your qual will be your qualifying score. If you do not achieve a maxout during your online qual, you may continue to attempt to raise your qualifying score in-person. Please highlight your VODs. Online qualifiers must be submitted by 6 PM Friday December 2nd. Quals may begin when the link is posted.
