Hey guys/gals

i just got my America's Most Haunted last week at Mad Rollin and thought it would be a great time to do a Haunted Halloween Ballers. I know that we already have a baller event on the books for October, but if people want to come up for a second one (and a chance to play AMH) then i would be happy to host.

I would also like to make it a costume contest.

Rules for costume contest

1) you must be able to play pinball in your costume
2) your costume may not interfere with other pinball players (do not come as a NIB machine as you will take up too much space)
3) no liquid (blood, puss, etc) that will drip onto the carpet

There will be a 1st and 2nd place prize (i will order them soon, probably gift cards)

House rules

1) no shoes past the front door (an extra pair of shoes/slippers is alright)

I will try to come up with theme appropriate food.

let me know if you have any suggestions.

Game list in signature is current.

Looks like I should be able to make it to this. Sounds like a great time.

Put me down as a maybe right now.

I would like to bring issue with rule #2. Can we get a ruling if Enders now has to keep his stance inside the size of the pin for this event? :lol:

>2) your costume may not interfere with other pinball players (do not come as a NIB machine as you will take up too much space)

Ken and Paul it looks like you should start working on incorporating headphones into your costume design. :shock:

I have to bail as well. I was looking forward to Kingpin's pointers on AMH. He was giving us all the skinny on WOZ at an event and he is a great teacher of rule sets and strategy.

alright guys/gals. we are about a week out and i am looking for a head count. I would need to know by wednesday in order to plan the menu, get the house cleaned up, and make sure all the games are working.

Obviously i live at one of the further destinations so i do not want to waste anyone's time to drive all the way up if there will only be 4 of us there.

line up has changed slightly

removed (to eric's house)
Black Knight 2000
Star Trek The Next Generation

added to my collection
Ripley's Believe it or Not
Tales from the Crypt (not working, will not be working by game day)

I am still waiting on a client to determine her schedule. She may be in town and I will need to entertain her on Saturday by the looks of it.
