Madison Pinball is excited to announce that we will be hosting a Hobbit Launch party on Saturday July 16th at Schwoegler's! Yes - this is the same day as regular monthly event but will take place earlier. Qualifying will be fun and casual. Come and hang out in Madison for the day!
JJP. KingPin Games and Madison Pinball will be providing some great prizes! Once we know exactly what they are, I'll update this thread!
In the meantime - here's the Launch Party Details
Where: Schwoegler's (444 Grand Canyon Dr, Madison, WI)
When: Saturday July 16th from 11:30am-~3:30pm qualifying with playoffs immediately following.
Every participant arriving between 11:30pm-3:30pm is provided one free game on Hobbit. If all participants in attendance at any given time have already played their free game, then they are allowed to play additional qualifying attempts ($1 per attempt; Players responsibility to Void any score that is not higher than previous attempt). Priority of play is given to any arriving players that have not yet played their 1st attempt and they will be bumped to the front of the line for all players waiting to play their 2nd+ attempts. Highest score for each player at the end of qualifying is used to determine final seed (top 8 or 50% of total qualifiers, whichever is less will advance to playoffs) or final place (9th - ?). Officials reserve the option to modify qualifying time or playoff structure as needed.
Playoff format:
Qualifiers 1-3-5-7 and 2-4-6-8 will play PAPA style 4-player games/ match play across 6 preselected games with Hobbit as 1 of the games. 4, 3, 2, 1 scoring based on finishing position for each game and combined total used to determine whom advances. Player position on all games for playoff round selected with priority given to higher seed to lower seed. Play position will be maintained for the entire playoff match. When games are open and available for play, each playoff group is required to efficiently play through all games (i.e. multiple games being played simultaneously). Top 2 players from each group advance to finals round. If there is a tie after all games, the player with the higher score on Hobbit in that playoff round advances.
Finals round: the remaining 4 players will play PAPA style 4-player games/ match play across 6 preselected games with Hobbit as the final game. If there is a tie after all games, the player with the higher score on Hobbit in the final playoff round wins.
Prizes: Trophies and prizes provided by Jersey Jack Pinball, KingPin Games, Madison Pinball and Schwoegler's.

No, but thanks for the offer.

Newborn? Congratulations, Kingpin!
Kids fall asleep in cars. I bet if you put the baby on top of a Hobbit machine the vibration of the pops would put the baby to sleep in minutes.

This weekend is the Hobbit Launch Party! Qualifying from 11:30am-3:30pm with playoffs starting promptly thereafter!
We'll have some signed translites, T-Shirts and some other prizes as well.
Jersey Jack Pinball will be represented, as Eric Meunier will be present! He's the Electrical Engineer at JJP, working on both WOZ and of course Hobbit. As you probably know, he's also the brother of WI's very own Kingpin. Stop on out, chat with local players and industry professionals, play a free game of Hobbit and play some pinball!
