Electric Circus - May 7th: BATTLE FOR THE KINGDOM CORONATION MATCHPLAY

I don't make up the names or capitalise them, but any excuse for some pinball and to be fair it's quite a good theme (with an engraved crown for the victor!).

You know the deal - cheap and cheerful (£10 adults £5 U16), good vibes, good crowd and hopefully some good pinball too.

May 7th - Bank Holiday (Coronation) weekend.

Venue - Electric Circus, Fife Street, Nuneaton

Start time 12:30
Qualifying ends roughly 18:30
Finals probably ending around 20:00

13 rounds of Matchplay

Let me know on here, by PM, in person or whatever if you intend/hope to make it.

No obligation or official sign up as usual. Just show up or don't on the day. I'll just start making a list to gauge potential numbers and build hype (I will be harassing most of you at some point anyhow)

Andy Brock is "Handsome Andy" (although I know you reserve that for moniker for Mr Lewell) or "Brocktastic" or "Can't stop the Brock".

"Big Time" is the sadly retired David Bowery

Anyway are you in Ian "Pinball Masseuse" Walmsley?

@Genotime have you got next matchplay set up? This will allow us to pre register on the matcholay system saving you a lengthy set up time on the day

Thanks Ben, good reminder. I certainly will be reminding people to make sure they have signed up and registered for that nearer to the time.
 
Without consulting the calendar I shall try and make it. I have a sneaky suspicion I could be away at the same time.

70 bods and counting. Is there a cut-off point for players?
 
Any travelling pin-heads planning on staying overnight on sat 6th and going to Agra palace?
Currently booked to stay the sun night at the moment
 
I presume the hard core pre tournament curry night is a given . I may book now because being a bank holiday and coronation day it may busy
 
The building is licensed for 200 for that room but obviously with stuff in it 100 may be the realistic max . The main bar is much bigger and acts as a chill out area and food is served there
 
Isn’t premier in further away greene king is just round the other side of the station how far is premier inn from EC?
 
Location of chase inn 30 mins walk from fife st
