It's quite a bit of work on the back end to do this, but I've got extra time in the office and thought that this would be entertaining & would also give us something to talk about.

Dear NDA Members/Team Dart 2020 Players:
Like virtually all of you, we are still coming to grips with the fact there will be no Team Dart in Las Vegas this year. It was shaping up to be a truly special edition, with the planned Players’ Poolside Party, the inaugural Pink Ladies event and our 35th anniversary celebration highlighting this year’s agenda. While we will have to wait before we have the chance to mark this impressive milestone together, we pledge to do all we can to ensure that when the electronic darting community does convene for the 35th edition of Team Dart (April 15-21, 2021) at Paradise Event Center in Westgate Las Vegas Resort & Casino, it will be an awesome occasion indeed! Today, NDA’s leadership and staff is still reeling from having to make one of the most difficult, disappointing decisions in the history of the organization and tournament. With all that has happened in our communities, our nation and world since making the cancellation announcement, we know it was the right action to take--one that quickly moved from being a remote possibility to an inevitable one in a matter of days--but it doesn’t negate the sad, empty feeling we have when we contemplate the loss of Team Dart this year. We appreciate all your support and understanding. It reinforces what we already knew about our players, operators, manufacturers and partners who share a common interest and passion for our sport…and in each other. All the best of good health and good spirits to you and your loved ones as we navigate through the days and months ahead. Questions about your refund please contact your operator for more information. Jack Kelleher Executive Director AMOA-National Dart Association Ever wondered where you stood for the entire year compared to other players? Or perhaps how your hometown lined up against the players from other towns in the league? Well, here's a bit of a chance to do that. We've ran the report for the entire 2019 year (1/1/19 - 12/31/19) and sorted the players in order of MPR average. Categories, as usual from our monthly rankings, are "Male", "Female" & "Junior". How do you & your friends stack up? *Scroll through the Male rankings to get to the Female and then through the Female rankings to reach the Junior rankings. In an effort to make sure players have as much time as possible to get the dates of their City tournaments free, we are posting the dates for each tournament prior to the leagues even starting. These dates/information will be updated with locations as the season progresses. You will be able to find the updated information on the "Schedules", "Standings" and/or UQ Event pages.

Steven Spillman - $10.00 Between cash & Promo-Nation point prizes, a total of just over $10,000.00 was awarded to players finishing in the Top 40 of the 2019 Ultimate Qualifier Series. We are constantly striving to make Greater Omaha Leagues better for players and stand by our slogan of "It Pays to Play With Greater Omaha Leagues". We have set an early goal for the 2020 Ultimate Qualifier Series to beat that amount, but the money added to the Finale is participation based and comes down to how well the participation in leagues is throughout the year. The more teams we have participating, the more money we are able to allocate to the Finale payouts. Here's to a good year and being able to increase the pot for next year. Congratulations to everyone and good luck to everyone in the upcoming year.  Due to the overwhelming early response to the no-entry Promo-Nation Pop Up tournaments and the seemingly lackluster response to the minimal entry Promo-Nation Friday Night Series events, it made sense to do away with the concept for the Friday night series and allow the popular Pop Up events to absorb those dates.
Pop-Up Remote Singles 01/CR tournaments are quick events that feature no entry cost with the chance to not only earn Ultimate Qualifier points towards the current series, but also to win Promo-Nation points which are redeemable for thousands of items on the online shopping mall. All players have the ability to register for their free player account on Promo-Nation's website and begin earning, saving & spending their points. Find out more information on Promo-Nation HERE. If you can't remember your login information, there is a toll free number on their login page and retrieving that information is quite quick and painless. With this, also comes the announcement of our inaugural 2020 Greater Omaha Dart Championships to be held Labor Day weekend 2020. More information on that event can be found HERE. As part of that weekend of events, Friday night September 4th there will be a special event held ... Pop Up Top 20 ... a bonus Remote Singles 01/CR tournament in which the 20 players who have played in the most Pop Up tournaments to date will be eligible to participate with $500.00 added to the event. We thank everyone for the wonderful response to these Pop Up Remote tournaments and are very happy to announce that these events averaging less than 3 hours from start to finish so far, which makes them much more player friendly. To register for an upcoming Pop Up Remote Singles tournament, you can find more information & registration HERE.

 Greater Omaha Leagues is continuing its annual loyalty-based player rewards series aka The Ultimate Qualifier Series for 2020 and have made a few small alterations.
The 2020 UQ Series will have many more Promo-Nation points awarded, increasing the overall prize pool. Promo-Nation is a rewards company that Greater Omaha Leagues are partnered with, allowing their players to earn points by participating in leagues & tournaments through them ... those points are then redeemable on Promo-Nation's online shopping mall. Creating an account is free and points can be saved or spent at your leisure. On top of that perk, this year's 2020 UQ will have a benefit that will also include those players who made it close to the Top 40, but didn't quite reach the goal. The final Top 64 players will earn the chance to play in a "warm-up" remote Singles tournament with $500.00+ added. The amount of that pot, and whether it increases, will be determined by participation in leagues/tournaments throughout 2020. So what kind of Promo-Nation point bonuses are we talking for 2020? Here's the update: #1: Earn $500.00 + 50,000 PromoNation Points #2: Earn $300.00 + 25,000 PromoNation Points #3: Earn $200.00 + 20,000 PromoNation Points #4: Earn $100.00 + 15,000 PromoNation Points #5: Earn $75.00 + 10,000 PromoNation Points #6-10: Earn $50.00 + 5,000 PromoNation Points #11-15: Earn $25.00 + 4,000 PromoNation Points #16-20: Earn $15.00 + 3,000 PromoNation Points #21-25: Earn $10.00 + 2,000 PromoNation Points #26-40: Earn 1,000 PromoNation Points New in 2020 --- All players who play over 1,000 league (GO ran leagues)/eq tourney games will have their names entered into a drawing for 10,000 bonus PN points … All players with with 1,500 league/eq tourney games will have their names entered into a drawing for 15,000 bonus PN points … All players with 2,000 league/eq tourney games will have their names entered into a drawing for 25,000 bonus PN points. *These are during the dates included in the Series & do NOT include TOC ran league/tournament games. Another change made to the 2020 Ultimate Qualifier series is that: "Only players currently playing a Greater Omaha League or TOC league through Greater Omaha will receive double point reward for Remote tournaments, all other players will still be able to participate, but will only receive single points for remote tournaments. This means it will be more beneficial to continue playing in leagues throughout the year. (If remote tourney lands between league seasons, determining factor will be participation in the previous league)." In addition to this, players must have played a minimum of 250 games in Greater Omaha Leagues, with at least 100 of those games being from a traditional league and/or Greater Omaha Remote Tournaments. Greater Omaha has also heard the demands for a Friday night tournament offering and has again partnered with Promo-Nation to offer a new Friday night Remote Singles 01/CR tournament series throughout 2020. More information on that can be found here. Greater Omaha Leagues are always striving to offer more benefits to their players and this is just another way for them to do so. Any comments, questions and/or suggestions can be sent via email to steve@gamesales.com It's that time of year again ... time to crown another Ultimate Qualifier Championship team! As part of Greater Omaha's loyalty-based incentive series, players earn points through playing leagues & tournaments throughout the year and when the 12 month series is concluded, the Top 40 point-earning players earn the ability to play in a tournament that will pay out $10,000.00+ in cash & prizes!!
Players also have the ability to earn bonus cash based upon how high in the final rankings they land. The top 25 ranking players earn bonus cash which increases in amounts the higher you finish. Here is the final 2019 Ultimate Qualifier Series rankings ... these players have earned the right to play in the finale: 1. Steve Garrean Jr --- $500.00 + 25,000 Promo-Nation Points 2. Kole Gray --- $300.00 + 15,000 Promo-Nation Points 3. Dallas Winters --- $200.00 + 10,000 Promo-Nation Points 4. Matt Winters --- $100.00 + 7,500 Promo-Nation Points 5. Josh Marschinke --- $75.00 + 5,000 Promo-Nation Points 6. Steve Garrean Sr. --- $50.00 + 4,000 Promo-Nation Points 7. Dereck Zinn --- $50.00 + 4,000 Promo-Nation Points 8. Mitch Chapin --- $50.00 + 4,000 Promo-Nation Points 9. Juanito Reyes --- $50.00 + 4,000 Promo-Nation Points 10. Paul Arnold --- $50.00 + 4,000 Promo-Nation Points 11.

Cheryl Brodersen --- $25.00 + 3,000 Promo-Nation Points 15. John Ostrander --- $25.00 + 3,000 Promo-Nation Points 16. Allison Ostrander --- $15.00 + 2,000 Promo-Nation Points 17. Rodney Ketchum --- $15.00 + 2,000 Promo-Nation Points 18. Larry Runge --- $15.00 + 2,000 Promo-Nation Points 19. Cory Preister - $15.00 + 2,000 Promo-Nation Points 20. Brian Markham - $15.00 + 2,000 Promo-Nation Points 21. Dan Barrett - $10.00 + 1,000 Promo-Nation Points 22. Amber Abbott $10.00 + 1,000 Promo-Nation Points 23. Kurt Keefe - $10.00 + 1,000 Promo-Nation Points 24. Rita Runge - $10.00 + 1,000 Promo-Nation Points 25. Steven Spillman - $10.00 + 1,000 Promo-Nation Points 26. Allen Robinson 27. Nick Jones 28. Brian Martens 29. Justin Bacon 30. Brad Binau 31. Brandon Wolf 32. Aaron Halagarda 33. Gabe Record 34. Marinda Bibler 35. Jennifer Way 36. Jim Donnelly 37. Gabe Ahlers 38. Sara Roberts 39. Mike Way 40. Kenzie Ostrander In the event that there are players that can't participate in the Finale event ... the rules state: "If a player does not show up the day of the finale, the next highest ranked player in attendance will get the spot. In the event that there are no additional players in attendance and someone no-shows, the following will occur: If there is already replacement player(s) in the finale due to a player declining their spot, the lowest ranking player will be removed (that being one of the aforementioned replacement players). If there is no replacement players in the event, a replacement player that was within the Top 100 can be called if they can arrive within 15 minutes. If multiple players within the Top 100 can make it within 15 minutes, the highest ranking determines who gets the spot. If this is also not an option, see #3. If all options have been exhausted and there is still an impasse, the lowest ranking player (points wise) will be removed from the tournament to make the event even again. This is another reason that it's important to finish as high in the rankings as possible...this has never had to be exercised, but just in case it's always best to finish as high as possible. If multiple players no-show the finale event, we will only add 1 player to bring the event back even and play with less than 40 players. It's too difficult to guarantee that there will be multiple replacement players on hand or available to fill more than one spot with no notice." Payouts for the 2019 UQ Finale Event are: 1st Place: $1000.00 Each 2nd Place: $550.00 Each 3rd Place: $350.00 Each 4th Place: $250.00 Each 5th/6th: $175.00 Each 7th/8th: $150.00 Each Consolation Champions: $150.00 Each Consolation Runner-Up: $125.00 Each Consolation 3rd Place: $100.00 Each Consolation 4th Place: $75.00 Each Consolation 5th/6th: $60.00 Each Consolation 7th/8th: $50.00 Each Consolation 9th-12th: $40.00 Each The 2019 UQ Finale event will be held on Saturday January 25th, 2020 at a location TBD. Details are also being worked out to help make the 2020 Ultimate Qualifier Series even better! More details on that to come in the following weeks. |
