Re: Schwoegler's - more games coming soon!

There were couple other people playing while I was there last night, though I didn't get to say hi since everyone was actively playing whenever I was between games. Rollergames was pretty fun, though I still need to learn the rules. TWD kicked my ass pretty hard. Out of the six games I played, my be...

Re: Schwoegler's - more games coming soon!

Gonna finally check out TWD and Rollergames tonight. Should be there around 6-6:30 if anyone is up for some multiplayer.

Re: Madison Pinball Eastside location: Pooley's

I had a great time. Everyone was very welcoming and friendly. Hopefully I'll be able to make it out to Pooley's for some practice before February's event, especially on Addam's Family.

Re: Madison Pinball Eastside location: Pooley's

Sounds good. I'll be heading over after work tomorrow evening, so hopefully I'll be able to get some practice in before things start up. Never played any of the machines on location here, but who knows maybe I'll have beginner's luck.

Re: Madison Pinball Eastside location: Pooley's

I hope to be there tomorrow. Looking forward to meeting some local pinheads and checking out the machines there. Anything I should know/bring for my first monthly tournament other than quarters?

Re: Schwoegler's - more games coming soon!

More games to play is always good. Now to get more people playing them. Only once so far have I seen anyone else playing them when I have gone. Maybe I just go at bad times. Anyway, thanks again to the people who put their machines out there so people like me can enjoy them.

Re: The Hobbit at MGC!

Great to hear. Hopefully many of the other games shown at Expo (The Big Lebowski, Wrath of Olympus, etc.) will be making an appearance as well.

Re: New Tournament in the Madison Area

I am interested, especially since the times for the monthly meetups have yet to work with my schedule. Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays are best for me. Team play sounds interesting. I could see how that could level the playing field if you have a mix of good and not-so-good players on each team (no...

Re: New Madison Pinball west side location - Schwoegler's

Pinball last night was good times. I was able to check out the lower playfield on AC/DC by taking DeaconBlooze's advice, though I still suck at aiming the cannon. DE Simpsons is a pretty tough game. Out of half a dozen games, I was able to break a million once. I also found it odd that the pop bumpe...

Re: New Madison Pinball west side location - Schwoegler's

I'll be heading over to Schwoegler's after work today. Should be there around 6ish, I have a few errands to run beforehand. Now that I hear that the DE Simpsons is up and running again I am hoping to be able to give that machine a shot. Feel free to say hi if you are around. Look for the bearded guy...

Re: New Madison Pinball west side location - Schwoegler's

Sorry if I am not describing this very well. I just remember hearing the same sound that you hear in Space Jam when the ball falls through the basket and makes contact with the playfield fairly frequently, which made me think that the ball was loosing contact with the playfield. I am still pretty mu...

Re: New Madison Pinball west side location - Schwoegler's

Yeah, 5 PM is not a good time for food specials. Mozzarella Sticks were pretty good and they had Warp Speed on tap. After a few more games, I think I am getting the hang of AC/DC Premium. Not sure what I am supposed to aim the cannon at or how to get down to the lower playfield, but that's something...

Re: New Madison Pinball west side location - Schwoegler's

I'm going to have to check out these new machines after work tonight as well as this taco special. With luck my game on AC/DC will last longer than 30 seconds this time around.

Re: New Madison Pinball west side location - Schwoegler's

Got to check these out yesterday. I have never played either and these were the first actual machines that I have played in the past 15 years, but I really enjoyed Tee'd Off. Tee'd Off I was able to pick up pretty easy and got about half way to a free game. AC/DC kicked my ass pretty hard, so I was ...
