Ok, just got my room booked (yeah, found a spot at the Hyatt Regency!). Will be there all day Saturday with the wife. Really looking forward to just hanging and playing.

Yeah, we get back from a super long 2 week vacation the weekend before, so don't want to be gone all weekend.

Edit: Just read your posting earlier, i see you wont be there on Saturday, dang it.

Anybody got a link to this year's shirts? I would pre-order if I can see what they look like. All I can find is last years shirts.

Assuming you mean the Bally version, I am all for you bringing that. I have played Buccaneer but have never seen a Speakeasy in person. I am going thru something of a love affair with all early SS and would love a chance to try yours out.

Wishing there was a Full Throttle showing up, but guessing it's too soon for the production games to appear on the west coast.

Thanks for posting the shirts Gene! Yeah, I am thinking the tiki one is the winner for me.

Yeah, would love to know if there is gonna be glass available for purchase...

Be there SATURDAY

Astroid Annie and the Aliens, it's pretty rare and was happy to see and play it in person.

I was sad meteor was in the tournament area and not available for play. Also missed the SoF and HG that was listed online but nowhere to be found.

On the other hand, enjoyed being able to play BBB for the first time, was pretty good game. Loved trying out the P3 system, the physics were great. Got a great run down from mof on Defender and played a few fun games with him. Logged some time with JM finally and really like the flow and understand why others take issue with the glove and what it does to slow down the game. Introduced MM to my wife and she really enjoyed it.

Overall a great show, wish it hadn't been so crowded, but understand that overcrowding is the natural outcome of prior success. Looking forward to next year.

This was my first year but was around 250 pins with even more arcades. Stern seemed well represented.
