Hey guys,

  As you have probably noticed, I added 3 sections in the forums pertaining to the pinball leagues mentioned on MAACA. I know that in the past, there have been mention of starting other pinball leagues, such as in Quebec, Windsor and London. If someone wishes to get that started, I can create a LEAGUES section in which all the leagues would have their forums sections.

I thought I would throw that out there. Makes it easier to reach more people through MAACA.

I know Gory has mentioned starting a Peterborough Pinball League.

I appreciate your effort and hope it can work in Windsor and London . As for Quebec City , i tried and posted both on this forum and the french section , but no response . I guess there ' s not enough members around Quebec City . So , i joined the MPL  and do the trip once a month ...

I would like to see another league start up in my neck of the woods called the HBO league (I like the name). It stands for Hamilton, Burlington and Oakville. I know that there are lots of players out this way and anything is possible. It would not conflict with TOPL of course. That league is already well established.

I could even go the BMO league (Burlington, Mississauga and Oakville). Just think of the possibilities    Maybe we could get bank sponserships or a 1/4 % off of our next loan, etc...

I am game for this smaller geographical pinball area if others are interested & if it does not conflict with Monday's TOPL events. Of course it would not be exclusionary in any way if people outside the region are interested in playing. Let me know what you think.

I'm starting up the North Brampton League.  So far, it's just me and Ottogd.  I'm in second place.

Hmmmm HBO league? BMO??? looks like you are starting off by worrying about corporate sponsorship!!!!


Bigwig and i will start the Scarborough League of Immature Pinballers!

I would like to start up a Windsor Pinball League in November.  I know Zot (+ friend), Troy, dos.reboot and myself were interested.  I also have  a friend who just got a FT (from a member).  I think it may be feasible to start.  Anyone else interested?  I can host the first one maybe in two weekends, depends on the wife and kids.

This makles sense as there's a lot of momentum in MAACA, it's definitely a place where people from all over Canada (and elsewhere) come to converse.  I'm in for the HMO league.

Not to sound discouraging but I don't thing another local Toronto area league could work.

Reason being a majority of the people who would be your target audience are already dedicating 1 day a week, I doubt those same people are going to be willing to dedicate another day of the week to another league.

So in the end all you are going to end up doing is hurting both leagues, the one your trying to start and TOPL by basically splitting attendance and hosts

Call it the MOB league and get your financing the other way...

I'd tend to agree with Adam in respect to a true league, I do think the idea of us west end locals getting together once a month or once every couple of months might be a good idea but I couldn't commit to a second league (not that I wouldn't be happy to drop in once in awhile).
