Hey all,

  My wife is currently threatening me to write this post. She wants me to have some buddies over on November 29th for a ''Pinball and Beer'' type of day with some buddies, or else.  

I only have a Pinbot and a 4MBC, but beer I got. I could try to get something else, but I have everything tied into equipment for the pin-regen thingy.

So if you want to come over, shoot the mess, go have some unbelievable chinese food for lunch (I know an awesome place... ask Azatotht and JD3), and just come home and play a bit, then I order pizza, and we drink more and play pin, PM me or just post here.

More details to come...

Life is like Pinball!! You never know where you will bounce or where your going but sometimes you have that one amazing shot But on the other hand you have those darn gutter ball where you just get frustrated.

I could probably pop by Ian, I'll just check with my wife to make sure I'm not committed elsewhere first.  It would probably just be me, as the wife is stuck with her U of O studies.  Hmmm, chinese food lunch

Sure that'd be great .. as long as mid afternoon Sat works for you (3 -4 pm something like that) .. it'll be a quick drop in as I'll have 3 other folks with me

drop me your address / contact info in a pm and if that time on Sat works for you I'll be there.


Cheers

Of course... now it looks like I may have to cancel. I just got asked By Caterpillar to attend a design committee conference from Monday Dec.1 to Friday Dec.4. Means that my flight is on Sunday at 1pm, so I won't be able to celebrate with my family alone on Sunday...

I will talk to the boss... I will keep you posted.

OK, so here is the plan... let's all meet at my place for 11am. We will head out to the chinese place around 12pm, back at my place at 1:30pm, and mess around, unless someone has another suggestion, like hit a local arcade (where, I have no idea... the closest pinball to my place is the TDK at the movie theater in the West Island).

So anyone coming, post your ideas if you have a better one...

As for my own machines, Pinbot is 100%, Playboy just needs some switch adjustments (which I will do), and 4MBC just needs a small adjustment (often shows Game Over after 1 ball or simply after starting a game... just a relay adjustment). I have a couple of other machines (SquidVicious's Centigrade 37 and Makak's Air Aces but they are not mine and I have not set them up, but I could...   ).

Anyone from Ottawa going? I have a freshly cleared playfield at Sparky's. I'll throw some cash if someone can bring it back.

I'm going and don't mind bringing it back, no charge if it's near where I'm going, but you might not get it back on Saturday (or you might, I am going into Ottawa Saturday night, depends on where you live I guess).  PM me your address.

Anyone else need something picked up/delivered that fits in a small car?
