Assuming that is also me, Dan and John, I will stand down for now my van. If it is not, let me know and I will get it back in.
Sounds good if you have a Slam lorry though.
Geoff we will confirm asap .....not entirely sure Will appreciates the size of London, the relationship between Luton and London, and/or just how many pins fit in a truck ...even a big ass one
Low roof is tight and if you have any machines with a gun handle they won't stand up unless you remove the gun.
Games like DH, STTNG, IJ etc. You would be better with a med roof transit.
Pretty sure we can't start breaking games down until after 6pm on the Sunday, I'm sure @GrizZ will confirm
Thx, for the reply, also could it be Monday morning ?

Pins can be left overnight and vacated on Monday
I might do that safer than leaving in a van overnight
Merged the two threads requesting Machines together....
It looks that there is the possibility to test Super-Bands on the SOUTH COAST SLAM

Hopefully bringing a (mostly) completed "Futurama" homebrew pin to the Slam. Only 2.5 years since it's last appearance!
Done: playfield art, inserts and G.I., adjusted shot layout, replaced ramp & travel tube, upper playfield, steel ball guides.
Maybe: Cabinet art, plastics art, flash lamps.
In accordance with modern pinball manufacturer tradition, the software will also only be about 75% finished.

Unfortunately Pinball Parlour were all set to bring a bunch of older games along but it clashes with them opening a new venue or something
Ok .....HOLD the front page ....due to delays with the new venue or something it looks like our friends at Pinball Parlour will be joining us after all
Hopefully bringing some classics and maybe .....just maybe......Orbiter 1
Usually Sean from http://www.pinballpalace.co.uk/ has a bunch of his more popular boards and stuff for sale. I'll confirm this with him.
Yay - Thats great!! Always good to see Sean there

Holy **** its getting close ...........dont panic yeah
Can feel the ache in my arms and back already
And me - And i'm not taking any machines!!! (Tho i will, as ever, be there on friday to help set up )
I have to limit myself tho - at 2012 UKPP i set up over 40 machines... and was so knackered that I couldnt play properly in the Touney the following day
And i aint getting any younger

Not as far as we will be traveling.
Oh yeah ur ooooop north
I'm planning on getting there early afternoon Will depend on how many stops I need to make to straighten my spine as putting a pin in the car means driving whilst crushed against the steering wheel

Sorry folks, Futurama won't now be ready for the Slam. It's seems every process for making a pinball takes four times as long as you imagined. Who knew?
As compensation, here are some - exclusive to pinballinfo - photos of the playfield art and insert LEDs (artwork is mostly montaged - I don't have much in the way of artistic skills).
