Who is going?

https://www.theplaydiumstore.com/

I'm already signed-up and registered to play....  looking forward to my new STERN SHIRT!

see you guys there.

Last year's standing (56th)  - hope to do much better this year...

Not me, nope I never go to these things.  

Probably me, but not sure at 100% at this time as it's the same weekend as my Convocation.

ROTFLMAO

Looks like a go for me. I haven't registered yet though. It would be my last TO trip of the year.

Will it be the same as last year, t-shirt-wise??? They gave  me a MEDIUM. A picture of me wearing that thing is worth a thousand words... not all good ones.

I wonder what the games will be this year... NBA, CSI and/or 24?

NBA is the prize game so you can assume that will be one of them.

My Predections are

Big Buck Hunter assuming it's done
NBA
24
CSI

I'll go...I squeeked it to 19th last year and had the three lousiest games on IJ one could ever have. And I even won one of them. It was that last damn machine on the right end. By the end it had by far the lowest scoring average.
My problem is I dont own any of the newer machines and thats a real advantage if you do. Sure you can figure out what to score but when you own the game , you know it like the back of your hand.

And Eden Stamm...if I spelled it right, was flipping awesome. Really, it was like he was in a division all on his own.

Same here... I owned 3 DMDs in the past. Got beat by a hair by Glen... that was a close game, man was it fun.

Cool beans, Bowen Kerins is making the trip the Canadian Championship it's always awesome to see him play.  

Cool, now when I win the championship I can gloat that I beat Bowen Kerins!

Indeed you can, but in which of your delusions do you have the skill to beat Bowen Kerins

I'm ranked 6th in the WORLD on TOTAN in the Williams PBHoF on the 360. I looked, Bowen isn't in the top 5! Ha, what a loooser!

it was only two games last time, I'm betting they stay to the same format this year

Anyone going from the Woodstock or Brantford area?

I just got my copy of Pinball 101... so this year, I won't be 2nd last... so watch your step!
And McMean... if its the two headed thing, I might be able to bring it.  (I work with the guy.)

Davester.

i didn't own any newer machines back then.  now owned and still own a few.  so pratice pratice pratice.  i did great for my first time every.  till things were mixed up and i got bored of waiting.  then i smoke my funny stuff and didnt hear the rules.  came back thinking i would be playing both machines again.  nope.. then i have paul spank me at batman.  it was still a great time.  this time i am have a few more friends coming.  so i hope not to be alone the last day so people keep me in check...good luck to them...

I signed up at the last auction and am going for sure!  I'm not expecting to beat anyone.  My skills are limited to just flipping uncontrolably and loud cursing.  But i have fun and thats all that matters.  I hope they disconnect the tilt and slam switches...

Ah yes the virtual world that makes much mroe sense

Nope 4 - 5 games this year.

I've got my buddy writing the software for them to use this year.

Also no stupid rule of adding the scores togethor all machines are being treated seperatly.

What games is still up in the air they are staying tight lipped.  

NBA for sure

I've heard Big Buck Hunter won't be ready yet.

24

CSI

and I'd guess maybe TDK or IJ4 again poassibly WOF the 4th is up in the air at this point I think.

I doubt it'll be WoF. Their site says they're sold out of it. They can't use games they don't have.

Just signed up... I'll probably place around #200 or so again, but hey.. I get a T-shirt!    And I'll use the Playdium card... my wife uses the batting cages all the time.  In fact, if anyone doesn't want their Playdium cards send 'em this way!
