    Quoted from Homepin:

    If you can't say anything positive.............it just astounds me how some people can only ever be negative.......
    You are probably aware of ONE that ended up with a small crack in the corner after two very solid days of ABUSE (not normal play). We have not had ANY other issues with them at all. Why not pick on the glue we hold them together with? I wonder if that is strong enough - maybe it will let go? Maybe the sky might fall?
    How about:
    "wow, look how well the new lockdown bar works"
    People are always asking for innovation, change, difference - when somebody does something different they cop nonsense like your comment.
    Why not comment on some of the positive things such as:
    How well the cabinet is built with the highest grade plywood, wood "slides" under the cab to protect the artwork, full metal corner braces, full stainless playfield support brace, massive torroidal transformer, power switch in the "expected" place, the wiring harness is tagged with every switch, lamp & solenoid, DMD/speaker panel that swings fully out of the way, coin box and coin mech included, innovative roller bearing playfield slide mechanism and many many other things.
    I guess it's a lot easier to be a grouch......

    If you cant take the heat, get out of the kitchen...

    Quoted from oropuro:

    ive been wanting an el toro (the bull) strength tester, that one have a for sale sign on it? please please please

    It was presold before the show. Is there something I'm missing here? It was a close firend's of mine who picked it up at an auction for cheap. The person who bought it at the show was going crazy for it and we had people drooling over it the whole time. Is there a reason it's so popular? Or is it just what it is, a bull strength tester. I never thought much of it over the past couple of years he had it...

    Quoted from nwpinball:

    The convention center is building a hotel attached to it, I'm hoping that will mean there will be more options for food, drinks and party spaces within the enlarged complex.

    I hope it means a cheaper hotel...

    Quoted from nwpinball:

    It looks like 2020, so not next year, the year after: https://tacomaconventioncenter.org/hotel
    I'd like to try to plan an after show party Friday or Saturday night close to the venue. It's a bummer the Marriot hotel bar closes at like 10pm, The Swiss usually has a band (or awful cover band), the Rock Pizza place is packed an not open very late... and there are usually a bunch of people looking for a bar and space to hang out at and have a few drinks and meet and greet and talk about collecting. We can make this happen!

    Interesting that's it is another Marriott hotel. Do you happen to know If the current hotel will stay open? Seems odd to have 2 of the same hotel across the street from each other...
