[Deleted member 2463]

Thanks everyone for coming even knowing we had some travel chaos, was a fantastic days pinball and both Mandy and I loved having you over. Can folks tag Mandy on facebook with thanks please as she doesn't do pinball info and that's probably a good thing for me LOL.

Congrats to Kirk who played superb to win after a tiebreak with Matt Vince who also played superbly, Craig who came third and Greg fourth. Some top playing today, apart from me lol!

Drug tests where taken for @mission65 but no performance enhancing substances where found

Congrats to Kirk/Matt/Craig. Well done chaps and you've got your hands on some great looking trophies. Great event and look forward to seeing you all at the next one.

Many thanks to Neil and Mandy for an awesome day of pinball.

Well done to Kirk for a great win and to Matt and Craig - well played guys.

 

[DanLewell]

Yeah, just to repeat what everyone else has said. Thanks to Neil and Mandy for hosting.

Me and the girls had a great time. Look forward to the next one.

 

[yellowreggae]

Really good tournament Neil. Your machines were set up really well, seems they get a bit better every tournament. Well done to everyone who played well and hard luck to those that didn't.

 

[Kaufmanised]

Massive thank you to @Neil McRae and Mandy for a top notch event and hospitality ❤

Really great day playing pinball with a great bunch of people

Congrats to @Matt Vince @roadshow16 @robotgreg and also thanks for the encourage in the final! My nerves still get the better of me

Big thanks to @Kilgore for the lift

 

[Ben-P]

Yep, thanks for another great day of pinball!

Just following up on one question.

Indianapolis 500 has three ball save modes:

Turbo ball save - 9 seconds
Boost ball save - 9 seconds
Pit ball save - 7 seconds

The first and last ones are specifically to cope with balls coming off the rails as they can be fast. So Wayne suspect your ball save was related to one of these modes maybe?

I spent a few hours testing the tilt and can find nothing wrong with it.

Dialed in screen is working ok now which is wierd and The shadow flipper sleeve seems to have had it.

Currently uploading the finals video, the video isn’t great but for those playing it might be interesting!

Cheers,
Neil.

New High scores from the tournament on the games! Simon’s 600M odd on IMDN was very impressive!

Cheers
Neil.

 

[Deleted member 2463]

Video of most of the finals. Not a great video, sound is a mess and dies half way through and the PTZ camera gets stuck also for some strange reason...

 

[yellowreggae]

Really enjoyed watching it still especially AFM with the sound. Cracking performances by @Matt Vince on AFM and @Tilt_Birmingham on MM. I really hope we can get more footage of top UK players from the Domino Arcade in the future.

 

[Deleted member 2463]

yup for sure, this was a trial run, future events will have all the finals streamed and recorded!

 

[Deleted member 2463]

feedback survey has gone out please take a few minutes to fill out.

 

[Tucks]

Didn't get a survey Neil. Not sure about others.

 

[robotgreg]

Got one and completed.

 

[DanLewell]

Mine came through ok as well.

Hi Neil, it was a grand day as wallace wouldv say, great mix of people, both young people and old, congrats to phoebe lewell (who beat me)and diane bush(who beat me who was very unlucky not to get to knockout stage and bob, someone had to miss out and in fact everyone who beat me as I didn't manage to report to Neil once with the scores all day, lol
It was like going to the arcade and putting my first pound coin in. Not sure if i have ever played any of the machines before? (Went to Kevlar in Newport a few years back) I do have a B.O.P but of course not in the competition. Great format, good flow, good turnaround. (Great weather outside when coming fourth in a quick game, loads of cold drinks, fantastic food, (thanks again mandy and children for their support, the hosts even put sun tan lotion on the tables!!!!! Nice touches all round Fabulous all round, travel reports on trains especially from London. I managed to get there just in time from Bristol.
Neil I didn't get a feedback survey.? Any chance?
