    Quoted from tullster:

    NEWS FLASH!! We went to deliver the games today and unfortunately, some parties got accidentally booked in our room for this weekend. Not wanting to get in the way of some little kids and an 80 year-old, we had to temporarily tuck the games safely away back near the pinsetters. It's tempting to set 'em up there, but it's cramped & noisy!Jan-Feb-Mar 2014 025.jpg 214 KB

    That's crazy Tully. Thanks for all your work on this, it's appreciated. Cool shot of the pinsetter room though!

    Thanks to Tully and everyone who helped out!

    It was so much fun, and also thanks to all the great players who showed up! I knew it was going to be a battle watching some of the crazy high scores in the first 30 minutes. Wow.

    Seeing a 770M game on Dredd and watching Andy put up 41M on Big Buck (right before he played me on the same game - talk about intimidation) was incredible. Congrats to Eric S. for his great play - didn't even need double elimination in the B bracket!

    Just an absolute blast!

    Quoted from TomGWI:

    I still can't believe a guy who won the B division and was ranked 15th in qualifying is ranked 15th after the fact.
    He would have been better off just leaving after he qualified. Granted he won a trophy but us that were there know he should be ranked higher.
    Should he not be ranked 9th.

    I hear you. I qualified 21st and finished 2nd in "B". I made the mistake of not reading the rules on the website ahead of time and figured I'd finish 10th overall, but I finished 21st.

    I don't fault anyone (except myself) as the rules were written out clearly on the website, and it did show only the "A" qualifiers could change their positions in the playoffs.

    I had a blast so it's not a big deal (hey, it's only pinball!), just a little rough considering I played an extra 5 hours or so without knowing the outcome didn't matter for my rankings.

    That was my fault though.
