A level is closed and tournament is over...
Tournament post-blog: I changed the time earlier to accommodate more players, evidently not successfully. Farsight week long tourney may play a part, but I played and completed the C level goal in 9 minutes, and I'm not a top player. As far as I know, this is the only tournament that has mailed out free gifts. So we will see what happens next month, I may make the tourney a 24-hour tourney. We will see what next month's numbers bring. A and B levels are wide open, pinballwiz45b wins a free chrome-steel pinball and is on top with 40 points at the moment. See you next month, June 7th. Cheers

I never noticed that this was going on yesterday. I doubt much of anyone saw the edits to the top post without any other reminders beforehand.

But also, to be honest, fastest in real time to a score goal isn't all that compelling as a format. It's not really a 6 or 12 hour event if it can be won in the first few minutes. Ranking depends more on being the first to start playing than on the actual gameplay. I like the idea of score goal play, which certainly distinguishes from the Farsight and TotM tournaments, but it could really use some way to get free of the tight tie to real world scheduling. I'm not sure how to do that, though.

Maybe include a timer on how quickly you get your score, as well as broadcasting the whole thing?

Yeah I missed it.
But I was pretty knocked out from a cold whilst this was going on so I wouldn't been able to enter anyways

Good imitative anyhow superdan, much appreciated
