I was a little wary at first because, well, I don't know.  Five-minute games are a little crazy, and make me think there would be a big luck factor.  But the usual suspects, plus Voof crossing over from PSN, and maybe some others, are on top.The mlpinball page has a second prize: PRIZE: Place in the top 100 for a chance to win a SIGNED Stern Translite and there are pics of Walking Dead, Star Trek, and Metallica.  (I know I would pick Metallica if given those choices.)For anyone having any trouble registering: I did have to go to <a href="http://twitch.tv/pinballjoe" target="_blank">http://twitch.tv/pinballjoe</a> and ask the folks there to add me, before I was able to get in the tourney.  And to get in, click the gamepad on the new GUI, this shows a button for tourneys.  You have unlimited tries, and the scoring is the same as in regular TPA tourneys (although the mlpinball page says points go 100, 90, 85, 84, 83, ..., this happens only when there are less than about 80 players in a tier; this tourney has 267 players right now, so the drop in points after 85 is less than 1 point).The mlpinball page says the tourney stop time is July 13th 1am CST, but the timer on the <a href="http://pinballarcade.com/InvitationalTournaments/" target="_blank">http://pinballarcade.com/InvitationalTournaments/</a> page calculates to 2016-07-12tu 8:00pm (ET) for me.I am stinking it up except for a #6 on CftBL.  I wish I had started sooner <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />.Here's an invitation to @<a href="http://digitalpinballfans.com/member.php?u=5136" target="_blank">Tarek Oberdieck</a>, @<a href="http://digitalpinballfans.com/member.php?u=3745" target="_blank">vikingerik</a>, and @<a href="http://digitalpinballfans.com/member.php?u=623" target="_blank">JPelter</a> to join in the fun.  The leader right now is Voof, and he's not even a real PC player, so we can't let him win, and I'm not gonna beat him <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />.For posterity: there are 10 tables in the tourney: AFM, Big Shot, CftBL, Dr. Dude, El Dorado (1975), Gorgar, Harley, Theatre of Magic, TotAN, and TX-Sector.  I guess it is a pretty good selection, but they seem to have grabbed the tables I'm not good at... I'm out of the top 50 on only 13 tables, but six of those are in this tourney <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite11" alt=":rolleyes:" title="Roll eyes    :rolleyes:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":rolleyes:" />.  Maybe it's a good time to get good on those six...</blockquote>
