Competition formats

The opening round used race-to-three in Division 1 and race-to-two in Division 2.[1]

The final-round poster advertised the same race-to formats, with PSP or Millennium ramping capped at 12 balls per second.[3]

Documented results

[edit]

Opening round

[edit]

PBThailandTV published the following teams under the heading “TPOC results” in its opening-round video description. They are reproduced in the source's listed order; individual finishing positions were not explicitly numbered.[1]

Listed order Division 1 Division 2
1 Destroyer Speed
2 Infernal Sattahip A&B
3 Expendables Demonic
4 MacDev Hellbourne Hittballerz

Second round

[edit]

Contemporary footage identifies matches between Infernal and MacDev Hellbourne, and between Expendables and Tylenol. The video descriptions do not establish final divisional standings.[2][5]

Final round

[edit]

A statement issued in the name of the TPOC organising committee on 24 December identified Speed and Sattahip Hunsa as the Division 2 finalists. It reported that the trophy had been awarded jointly following an altercation during the final.[4]

The committee acknowledged that the joint award was an error under the applicable disciplinary rules, but stated that the decision would stand. This was a decision concerning the final-round trophy, rather than a documented overall season title.[4]

Contemporary coverage

[edit]

PBThailandTV published coverage of the opening round, while Allan Phang published match footage from the second round.[1][2][5]

The PBThailand forum preserved the final-round registration discussion, divisional draw and subsequent organising committee statement.[4][6][7] Detailed event records are covered in the individual round articles.
