Thanks spacecadet28 for hosting and getting all those games running in such a short period of time. Curse you for showing me LOTR. that will cost me a small fortune sometime soon.
Sincere Thanks to Marty for hosting such a GREAT pinball party, and for him working all theses LATE nights fixing the games before the meet. Wow, lots of machines in great shape!
It was an absolute blast meeting many board members, and playing some pinball.
Thanks to the numerous Montreal members who did the long-distance trip!
Finally, Thanks to Sparky for arranging the production of beautiful trophees for the tourney. I am looking forward for these pics to be posted, this party/tourney will go down in the toilet (trophee!), oops, down in history !
Happy findin', haulin', fixin', and flippin' !
Best Regards, - Sylvain Gregoire, Ottawa

Sorry for the lateness of this answer too... chores to be done...
I will try to keep it short and simple...
A really big thanks goes to Marty and his family for having all of us over... a truly AMAZING meeting!!! Marty worked his a** off all week to get all of those nice pinballs working. I can't say thanks enough.
And there are other people that seriously need applause here too... Mindstorm88 came in early at Marty's place and got many games running great. Thanks to him, I played my first game of Firepower in nearly 12 years!!! Man, did I ever miss that game....
Another big thanks go to Frosken for giving us a much easier tournament method. You saved me a lot of trouble, and I think that people really enjoyed the tournament.
I think that most of us had been looking forward to that meeting for a long time, and the only dissappointment of the evening was when we had to leave...
Hey Marty... I promise I will stay longer next time!!! I<ll try to bring a pin too!! Maybe Haunted House, to put beside that sweet Black Hole!!!
And last big thanks, but not the least, a big thanks to all that showed up at the meeting. We nearly had 20 members show up!!! WOW!!! A truly big success!!!
Well... I hope that somebody steps up for the November meeting now... it will probably be a helluva meeting too!!! I think that the people there caught the meeting virus now!!!
Thanks for all the kind words guys. It was a pleasure to have you all over... Next time, you should sleep here so we can drink more BEER!
You're really a good group of guys... Simple and authentic people are hard to come by these days.
BTW, I fixed the Simpsons. Had two shorted transistors. This really speaks for the quality parts Stern puts into their games. Less then 150 plays and 2X shorted transistors this is not acceptable!
