Yeah, I figured you were right and the photo thread would go silent as the month went on.

I would love to find a way to make an app/ website where everyone can autoload scores/photos as an event like this happens.
I am thinking we do something like this once a quarter (for the last month of each quarter?) next year and then some sort of party at the end with maybe a playoff/prizes/fun times?

Any IT/app nerds out there for hire on the side? I am sure if done right you can sell the ap to other event organizers pretty easy?

I will be heading out to both locations with my brother later this afternoon and then likely heading back to my house for some post dinner drinking and pinballing.

If anyone wants to meet up for route pinball or possibly hanging at the homestead later then let me know (hit up my cell for best chance of reaching me). My first real vacation of the year starts in 10 minutes. woot woot!

I had a good time out shooting at Schwoegler's and Pooley's yesterday.

Got to see Sean, Garrett, Ryan, and Tully in my travels.
Got to surprise my brother with the Bday/Xmas present of Tee'd Off (will physically go to him in a few months when I pull it from route). Stoked that of the 4 games at Schwoegs, he liked TO the best which makes it even better to know I picked a good game to give him.

Also managed to double my previous ACDC score (and had witnesses in Tully and Ryan so people know I am not taking off the glass :lol: ).

May be out playing today and Friday if anyone else is going to be around...

I can try to swing out Dru. Not sure what work will entail today but if I have opportunity I will stop out to play a few.

I really need to make is back to schwoeglers to try and do better on ACDC or Sjam.

Just a reminder to turn in your score submission and all photos by Wednesday at the ball drop.

Per the rules I need to have them with a time stamp by the stroke of midnight on the 31st (i.e. NYE the ball drops and so do you drain the last ball :) )

So I've got 25 hours left to get over to Schwoeg's eh? Tempting...

EDIT: Just kidding. Too much work to be done.

20 hours and 9 minutes but who is counting :)

Scores are rolling in. If anyone that has submitted scores decides to make it out and betters a previously turned in score, then no problemo. Just get the new/better score and photo to me by midnight tonight. Hope to see a few of you out there today. I know Tom G and Eric S will be making the rounds at both places and happy to see we got representation from all areas of the state on this event! huge THANKS to all that have participated and made this fun.
