On genesis, you collect body parts, each completed shot gives you a letter. Stick to orbits and ramps for safety. When you have all the letters of a body part, shoot the ramp thats flashing for multiball.
 
3 months too early for me.

I'll be in NYC for 3 weeks in August.

Let me know if you hear of any tournaments, or leagues for me to take a look at. Would be nice to be able to pick up some cheap WPPR points in the over-inflated tournaments over there. ;)
 
Pinballnyc.com three weeks in NYC though - that’s long!

My sister lives over there, has done for nearly 30 years now, plus my dad's ticking things off his bucket list while he still has time, so I won't be a complete tourist for the 3 weeks.

PinballNYC website isn't kept up to date by the look of it.

ah makes more sense!

are you missing pinfest ?

There is a lot going on pinball wise and league wise but it seems very local; heading down to sunshine tonight so will let you know what they have on.
 
so sunshine has a league every wednesday - i'm going to try and go down tonight.
 
Sunshine have a league every Wednesday and it’s matchplay which is so much better than the crappy high score system that a lot of compos use.

Was looking like I might make the B but need a decent game on Dialed in 250K would do it but the game is set in bastard mode.

Would that result not make you the top UK player now and seeded #1 for daventry ?.
 
Longer story to tell but short version is - so at 23:30 I was out and needed a score of 300k on farking Dialed In to get back into the B. Second last game and I nailed 310,000 (which doesn’t sound a lot and it isn’t as I’ve had way more than that plenty of times but these machine were set super hard and had waxed playfields) - so at the end of the game it’s like 23:45 and i’m like yeh!!! Then with TWENTY FARKING seconds some cword gets a score on another game and boots me out by one damn point!

There is an outside chance if someone doesn’t turn up I’ll get to play but I seriously doubt it.

In any case it was an epic event and I’m really pleased against some lofty players I played well and am happy with how it went.

Can anyone qualify for A division?
Same question - could you have qualified for A division?
How awesome to play against Lyman Sheats, Bowen Kerins , Keith Elwin etc......
