Dec 28th > "WI Last Chance"

[Hilton]

You will have to come get some practice time on game restoration, cleaning , and flipper rebuilds first

Game room is currently a disaster zone of RFM crap everywhere. Like an explosion of parts.
Next on the list is fixing a few issues with RS, Cleaning up TX and rebuild flips, and hopefully getting TAF fixed. (coin door buttons not working, intermittent resets, thing hand acting odd)


A LOT to do before the event. Self impossed stress and deadlines are good, right?

[Hilton]

Registration cutoff is Dec 25th so I can have a few days to get everything organized.

Event will be on 4 games for main event qualifying plus 1 game for mini-event.
Playoffs will be on at minimum 8 of the games in my current collection.

Exact games to be used are yet to be determined and will likely be determined the morning of the event depending on what is playing well after final tweaks this Friday.

In case you want to study up on rulesheets/strategies, the following are possible games:

FT
Congo
RFM
BK2K (likely set on 2 ball)
SG
LOTR (likely set on 1 or 2 balls to speed up games)
TX-sector
Centaur
RS
TAF?

We'll need to handicap Mike S. on Centaur.
I vote he can only use his pinky fingers.

I've played Corey's LOTR a few times and 1 ball is just not going to cut it. And I can only imagine you made it harder since you got it.

[Hilton]

1 ball LOTR may just be as an extra fail safe. In other words something to get a score on in case one of the other primary games goes down mid-event?

I think I can make LOTR harder and leave it as 3 ball?

If WI locals are interested in play testing games next Friday and helping me tweak them to the correct difficulty then let me know. I am happy to have a few people over to lend a hand.

[Ken]

Would love to come get a few games in Fri. but I'm working til 7P. Gonna have to come in cold and hope for the best.

[Hilton]

no worries. If you change your mind, let me know.

I will be tweaking stuff all day Friday and into the evening (probably till 10ish).
Open offer for others also.

[Hilton]

Registration will close when I get done with holiday stuff this evening.

Fair warning to get em in now if you want to compete.

[Hilton]

REGISTRATION NOW CLOSED!!! If you are registered you should have gotten an email with details. If you did not get the email then please contact me ASAP.

[Ken]

I have to follow Josh Henderson and Jason Werdrick?
Don't think I will be starting on time.

LOL. Yeah, hopefully games will not go to long with some of the folks showing up...


It is tough to decide how hard to make the games so the good guys are not playing each one for 20 minutes but easy enough that the majority have some fun.

[Hilton]

looks like results are posted to IFPA.

they have not updated the SCS page yet but looks like this event definitely shook some things up!
