I'll be on baby watch at that time, so I can't commit to this year. I'll swing out if I can, though!

Waun-a-Pinball bump with less that two weeks to go. We've been floating around 60 out of 64 players in the past couple of weeks, and just hit 61, with 3 spots remaining.

The plaques have been ordered, envelopes stuffed and the games are almost ready!

64 Players signed up and officially sold out! BOOM!!

I'm sure there will be a few no-shows, so if anyone still wants in, send in your name and we'll put you on the wait list. Any open spots will be filled Saturday at 12:30pm.

Thanks to all who signed up!!

Hey Tully,

Will there be practice time on Friday during the earlier part of the day, or is tomorrow the last opportunity?

Thanks!

Tully is not always on here so I can answer for last year and assume it will be the same. On Friday, games were available all day up till shortly before the 6pm qualifying time. At around 530 last year, we turned them off to change things into tournament that were not already in tourney and also tried to fix and last minute issues form the report log.

I presume it will be similar to last year.

also of note, If anyone experiences Jbot resets, please let us know. We have never had any issues with it till this week. We discovered yesterday that 5 games were on the same cicuit and Jbot was of course the bearer fo this. We put it on a different circuit last night and it appears to be solid.

That said, if it is not, let us know ASAP so we can try to rebuild bridge rect section prior to tourney start on Friday.
