*** - Cancelled - *** October 2021 League Night - WI Dells - KingPin

Post by KingPin Games »

This event has been cancelled by the host.

Good morning to Madison pinball league players.

We are currently looking to host league night Saturday, October 9th, 2021 (or possibly the 16th if that works better for more people).

Address

E 9355 Innisbrook Lane
Wisconsin Dells, WI 53965

Parking is in the driveway and on the street.

Food and drink (non-alcoholic) will be provided. If a vegetarian option is needed (wanted) let me know and we will get that figured out.

League starts at 6pm, practice / socialization starts at 430pm.

Games available (i will go through them each in the next couple of weeks)

Metallica Premium
Iron Man Vault
Lord of the Rings
The Simpsons Pinball Party
Avengers Infinity Quest Premium
Superman
Guns n Roses Collector's
Willy Wonka Collector's
Dialed In Collector's
Hobbit Black Arrow
Wizard of Oz 75th
Monster Bash Remake Limited
America's Most Haunted
Black Knight 2000
Fire!

With the rise in covid numbers and the fact that most of you are in Dane County, I will leave the mask mandate up to the individual.

Since this is probably the longest drive for most, we will watch the response and determine a week prior to the event date if this will actually happen or not.

Let me know if there are any questions.

What a line up! I’d love to come, but I am only doing mask-required events right now. So I’m going to pass and give my spot to a sub.

I'm in if we are doing 10/9.

I'm likely unable to make it if it's 10/16, but might.

Thanks Kingpin for hosting!!!

Many league members are not checking this thread. I'll reach out to a few of them via text and see who is interested.

FWIW - 10-12 members is a perfect size. Last week went well, and was actually a bit more enjoyable than with a larger group.

I'm pretty sure I'd be able to make it either the 9th or 16th and I'll plan to mask up. Thanks!

*** Re: October 2021 League Night - WI Dells - KingPin - CANCELLED ***

I have decided to cancel this event. The main reason is the rise in illnesses at the kid's schools, and it doesn't show signs of slowing. I don't want to risk the kids catching anything else, nor exposed anyone else to whatever bugs are floating around the school.

The secondary reason is the lack of acknowledgment of the event from the madison pinball community. While 10-12 people might have been good for Mark, a lot of time and effort goes into planning a solid pinball night (as anyone that has hosted knows) and I just don't see the support.

I was hesitant to host but decided to give it a shot anyway. At the current count, there are around 4 people that have said they would be coming and with 3 weeks to go, that is just sad. Sorry, I don't want to put in all the time for that (no offense to the people that said they were coming).

Hopefully, this gives someone else the time to plan and prep for October.
