Thanks Paul and all those who have registered

Games will have tournament settings with extra balls off

JM will have hand optioned off as it has be known to play up and it slows game play down especially in multiplayer games
 
long shot but if anyone coming from Andover area l have a pin in two halves waiting to be collected

two birds one stone etc
 
Thanks for hosting @steve brum . I had had a great day. Obviously my scores were crap but that meant I had longer to play on whatever machines I wanted while you lot could only play the comp ones... :rofl:

Really good variety of machines, I'll definitely be visiting again sometime soon. :thumbs:
 
Ace event. I've never done so badly so consistently at JM and my second credit on Radical was nowhere near as good as my first that got me my late qualification, but still an awesome day.

I also don't think I'm getting over my block with Tron any time soon. I love the game but it's incredible how much it resists all of my attempts to hit Sea of Simulation, never mind Portal...
 
Many thanks from me too, Steve. Hope you had a fun birthday.

Great set up and collection of all pins from ages.

Good to see some of you guys again.
 
Great event and ran smoothly, not a huge turnout - but that will come with time as more people get to know about it.
Looking forward to the next one.
