is there any rough "schedule" worked out for the season?

any date/location set yet for the 1st meeting?

There is no schedule, if it goes like last season each month we just play it by ear and whoever volunteers to host first, there we go. I guess it should have been in its own thread but Doug already offered - first meeting tonight at his place from 5pm to 8pm. Hope to see you there. Anyone else in the area who wants to come out, just send a pm to Tuborg.

Sure thing.   I wasn't trying to hog the first OPL night - just making an opportunity for Kirsten (from Germany) to play...

TONIGHT!!!!!!

I am going to see if I can juggle some stuff around.... am I invited?

no way I could get out tonight. My wife needs my tools to do some stuff. We all know that when the wife needs tools, she also needs YOU to be the one using them while she tells you what to do

good luck guys!

It was just a small gathering and we didn't bother to record results. Sometime soon we should have a real start to the season, preferably with a bit more notice on the date & time.

So.... looking for volunteers to host this meeting. Anyone with at least 4 playable machines, pick a date & time, limit attendance if you wish.

I only have 2 playable.

How about I take the next/first offical meeting? The sys 11 are soon to be folded for ping pong/floor hockey so may as well get them played one last time and the Sterns are still all set up unless people want a rotation change before this meeting (I'm due for a change soon .

I'll check my weekend work schedule today and pick a Sat afternoon/evening in the next 2-4 weeks so lots of notice.

Thank you very much for the hosting on short notice. I enjoyed the machines, in birlliant condition, very much. The TZ was really a challenge for me. Next time at home I'll see the BoPP with different eyes  

From the discussion about prices in Germany I think it's good to take a look into the Excel table from someone that tries to collect all machines that are sold with the condition. This includes ebay, portal, or somewhere else. The table comes from an German homepage:

For the polishing of the mylar I used 3M Finesse-it polish and the extra fine one. The bottles I use are looking like on the following picture in the above right corner:

I tried to find similar stuff somewhere here but it seems that the IDs and sizes are different. Maybe the following link will help for the search:

I found an example of mylar polishing on http://www.pinballz.net (German portal). On the picture you can see a mylar border on the right side to the slingshot, but only by the color of the white.

For the playfields of the RfM, it seems that owner of the page has changed. I will check it and come back to you.

Pleas let me know if I forget something.

Ah nuts! I missed a chance to play that sweet Sinbad!

Woohoo system 11s!!!

Crappola, I knew I forgot something... . Sorry I missed this Doug, I would have had the time too but haven't been on in a couple of days.
