Doors open at 12 for Practice, comp starts at 1:30. Don't be late!What time does the cracker start on Sunday?
Top event today, all. I can still play like complete trash when it really counts [emoji2959]. But I had a good time which is a load more important, as much as I would prefer to win outright!!
You should have seen my F14 and Dirty Harry games. I didn't deserve to be in those rounds!!!You did better than me I didn’t even qualify and went out early in the 2nd chance bracket you played a blinder indie jones.

I'm surprised the rumours about the club being haunted in the early hours of the morning, by a foul-mouthed scouser poltergeist haven't been more widespread. People would be forgiven for thinking so on the couple of times I've come out of the club to sunrise after failing to fully fix machines... particularly Arch Mother****er SST.One local said the noise was 'scary' . Good !

Thanks everyone who came today. Extra thanks to Telboy for some emergency repairs and Wayne for organising both comps. The games got a lot more play than usual but there were less casualties than expected. Reallu felt like a proper arcade today. One local said the noise was 'scary' . Good !
Just to thank everyone for coming from near and far. Along with @steve brum for hosting.
Congrats to the finalists, played on JP2 which was fixed by @Telboy earlier in the day to get it fully functional, as he did with a number of games.
That is the problem with having such a large number of games that get played infrequently by inexperienced people who can't recognise that a game isn't working as it should. Despite the fact that the Saturday comp and practice was used to highlight these problems some faults slipped through, and others developed on the day. The benefit of having such a large number of games however, is that there was plenty fully functioning to choose from.
The competition did run late (but actual playing time was probably around 6hrs), due to starting a little late and having a break for food. Next year would people prefer an earlier start, food before the comp starts or both?
I'll get the full results posted this evening.
Also, thanks for the comments about the light blades, it is these kind of venues where they really show their benefit.
Games were randomised and all of the groups played against different people in the main bracket anyway.Something else you might want to consider for next time is using the match play software to put people into groups and randomise the games.

Matchplay can't handle the format I want to play - Variety is the Spice of Life.
