    Quoted from Taxman:

    I wanted to play a little more of Jack's Pirates since I only played an early version. I got behind 2 guys putting in 4 player games. Pointed it out and was told "everyone else is doing it".

    I'm going to apologize right now, I think that was me. I didn't mean to do that, but was unfamiliar with the POTC interface and ended up putting too many credits on the game.

    We ended asking a guy standing behind us to jump in and played 3 guys 4 balls.

    Again, it was unintentional, and I think the only game I did this too.

    I had a better time sharing games with new people on games like Maiden and TNA.

    Yeah, I wanted to give Houdini a try but the two times I was around the ball times were long and it had at least 3 players on it.

    I had cash in my pocket and room in my truck to bring something home but wasn't to be that day.

    No blame placed here, just lousy timing on my part.

    I'm not an app guy. I don't want tons of apps on my phone, period. I have no issues texting however.

    Here's my thought, instead of the owner's number on the machine, why not put the tech crews "hot line" on the machine. Text the machine number, with brief description of the issue if you want. They can contact the owner or handle the issue themselves based upon the owner's wishes.

    How many Indians and how many Chiefs so far? We all think we know best, right!

    Bunch of games I couldn't play (Friday morning), but a bunch I could that I've never played before, so overall, a cool day.

    Quoted from dmarston:

    RonSS: we were thinking more along the lines of a kiosk you can walk up to, rather than a hotline. That seems to cover more bases than texting a hotline, because it serves the people without phones. It also allows us to put instructions on the screen and guide the interaction when necessary. How about that approach?

    I think you guys are working out a best case scenario and I applaud that!

    Quoted from Jaymach1:

    This was my first Pintastic and had a great time. I really appreciate all the hard work that went into the show by the organizers and volunteers. Everyone was really nice all weekend. We brought a Genie and a Globetrotters that got almost 700 plays a piece. It was fun watching people enjoy the games and really enjoyed the seminars. Can't wait till next year.

    That Globetrotters was sweet! You guys really did a fantastic job on that!

    Quoted from KozMckPinball:

    Anyone noticed anyone playing the free game on a high enough score, while people were waiting? I never saw any of that. I just let my free game go on MB and got back in line.

    I saw a few people snapping pics of their scores with initials. Only once did I catch someone push the start button quickly before my party of 2 as we were within 3 steps of the machine. Would have been fine if he had asked if we wanted to play together, but hey, he had a high score to achieve.

    People are people, takes all kinds.
