Re: Flippin with the Greats > Photo Thread ONLY

Heads-up - Space Jam had the Wabbit Hole literally drop down into the bottom of the cabinet. Talk about the ability to get a lost ball!! This happened just after Ryan put up a GC score on there, so I guess you can blame him. It'll be repaired in the next day but wanted to make those aware that may b...

Re: December 13th League Night

Bummer about the flu-bug. That's no fun at all! Hope everyone gets better quickly. Ryan can't make it to this one so I'll be flying solo at this point.

Re: Flippin with the Greats > Madison, WI

I like the idea of extending it through the month - no reason not to from my perspective. As long as all scores are entered by 12 midnight on 12/31 that sounds good.

Re: All Members please vote!!! IFPA point related.

Thanks to everyone for their feedback and voting on this. Based on the results, this is a done deal and has been incorporated into the "Scoring" section thread for 2015 rules. Recap: League scoring and standings will be unaffected by this additional top 4 playoff. The top four total point ...

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

So how was the first Schwoegler's tourney? Winners? Logistics? Sorry I couldn't make it but will when my schedule allows. I think the first tourney went really well! Garreth was the winner, taking down his Dad down to do so (Ryan took 2nd)!! If you're going to win, may as well do it with style. Had...

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

I noticed it specifically when you first launch a ball and it would drop down to the lower middle pop bumper and just roll off to the side. I'm glad this was brought up. Unfortunately, there is a design flaw specific to Simpsons on that lower middle pop bumper. If you don't put something on the lef...

Re: All Members please vote!!! IFPA point related.

Absentee scores are based on an average score, so if we keep running total points for league standing and then used the league average for both absentee scores as well as nightly playoff ties (which hopefully won't happen all that often) I think that's a reasonable solution. Of course, others may di...

Re: All Members please vote!!! IFPA point related.

Sean and I are saying the same thing I think? I think we are saying the opposite. If you get 2 people that tie at 18 points, then the individual with the LOWER placement would win the tiebreaker. Why? The higher ranked individual should have been able to finish better than the lower ranked. Because...

Re: All Members please vote!!! IFPA point related.

These are good suggestions. I enjoy league and definitely want it to remain fun and simple, yet competitive. I also would like to avoid it becoming an all night event. That being said, here are my thoughts. 1. Keep the 7/5/3/1 point standings as-is for overall league placement 2. Additional 4 games ...

Re: FS/FT 1978 Gottlied Sinbad (SS) project $280

I need another project like a hole in the head. Great price, Dave! If I had the space and time I'd definitely take this one from you, but it's just not in the cards right now. A few months from now I'll be kicking myself. I'm sure you'll find a happy home for it! GLWS!
