Rules Variations
Spring 2023 Season:
- No preplays will be used – Instead we will use the Drop2 Qualifying format where the two lowest week totals for each player will be dropped from your league points total. Players who are not present for a match will receive forfeits.
- The Roll Call Grouping system will be used where Roll Call will be taken at 7:30pm. Players who are not present and have not contacted the league SLO to announce their expected tardiness will be considered absent and excluded from that evening’s play. If you are running late – contact the SLO BEFORE 7:30pm!
- The forfeit limit for the season will be 13 – This affords the ability to miss up to basically 3 weeks of play — on the 13th forfeit you will be dropped from the season.
- The first tiebreaker for ties in adjusted point totals for playoff qualifications will be the player’s Total Points (points before “drop 2” rules)
Dues / Prizes / Expenses / Whatnot
The Silverball Sanctum league collects dues of $40 per player for each 10 week league season. We also collect “kitty” money, which comes from any free credits on machines (due to replay, match, etc) during league play. The dues and kitty together form the league’s treasury.
This league pays CASH MONEY prizes to players who make the playoffs. The whole-league cash purse is approximately $26/player (for an in-depth breakdown of the league expenses, click here). This purse is divided across however many divisions we wind up having in the season, with A Division getting a percentage of the total and the other divisions getting 90% of the division above it. In each division, if there are 4 finalists, we pay 40%/30%/20%/10% of the division’s share of the purse to 1st/2nd/3rd/4th place finishers at the end of the playoffs. If there are 3 finalists, we pay 50%/30%/20% of the division’s share of the purse to 1st/2nd/3rd place finishers at the end of the playoffs. We may slightly deviate from these percentages to round payments to the nearest dollar.
It is important to the FSPA that we are transparent about how we handle players’ money. If you have any questions, please ask your league treasurer.
Inclement Weather Policy
League play will be canceled if inclement weather causes Northern Virginia Community College to be closed. If NVCC does not close during inclement weather, the league SLO may still declare “Liberal Leave” which provides for post-play of games by players who do not attend league. If Liberal Leave is declared, it will be announced here on the FSPA web site and on the FSPA mailing list.
