Lake Charles, LA
Quoted from Mudflaps:IMDN for your Spooky translite.
Shoot me a text with which games you may be looking to move.
I hate to hear that you are leaving before we got to discuss my hernia surgery. 
(Topic ID: 161458)
Quoted from Mudflaps:Sad to say we’ll be moving early this summer. Off to areas unknown...
Areas unknown? Or areas you can’t tell us?
Quoted from PoBoyPinball:Areas unknown? Or areas you can’t tell us?
Not finalized yet. I’m waiting for instructions.

No. Wait. Should b more like G-52.
Bingo!
I can see Mudflaps at a bingo tournament asking if they will be playing with the glass off. They will look at him like 
A Mudflaps Invitational sounds great.
Theme could be related to Best of Pinside.
I think I will come as a Pinslut.
Best online Pinside name ever.
Pinslut won the best Pinside name poll by a mile, and against some other great online names.
Aaron came by yesterday and we worked on Aerosmith putting on the yellow Convolux protectors.
I was possibly 
emulating one of our Lake Charles friends method so I had coffee and attended to my washing machine delivery while Aaron did the work! 
It looks great. The pictures don’t do it justice.
Later John B met us over at Aaron’s and we had fun playing his amazing collection!
A great day of Pinball.

Great work!
I am super happy our league starts this week. I got Count Down playing 100 percent just a few cosmetic items to chase down. ( 8 more bad bulb sockets ) Plan to use it in this weeks league event.
I'm currently tempted between sell nothing and sit on my games for 2019 or sell several to buy something super nice and fancy. So I'll probably do neither and waste some money on an impulse buy at TPF. 
I'm looking forward to playing Beatles, Munsters and Steve Ritchies next game!
As of this morning our Aerosmith is sold and Iron Maiden Pro has been ordered from Marco and FUN at the special TPF show price. Colin is going to try and get it for the tournament area. 
Very Excited.
Awesome news Leon. Does your buyer need a second Aersmith Pro? I have one I am willing to sell...(LOL)
Quoted from Blitzburgh99:No love for Aerosmith in Louisiana??? Yikes
We do love Aerosmith.
But after borrowing Allen's Maiden (Which we still have currently), we now understand the true greatness of this pin and all it's fantastic rules, layout and callouts.
It is a true tournament pin in every sense of the word and is fun just playing for kicks.
I bought a pin in Mamuo. My grandson loves the story of that buy as he was my helper on a late night run to go get it.
Quoted from Jodester:Our friends from outside Louisiana won't get the joke, but

From looking at the Leagues Map on IFPA site, it seems like not much IFPA pinball league action going on right now.
Zero league action as of Feb 14th in about 20 states (AR, DE, IA, ID, IL, KY, MA, ME, MS, MT, ND, NE, NH, NM, OK, OR, SC, SD, VT, & WY). + AK & HI
And only 1 active league each in about 10 other states such as: AL, AZ, IN, KS, LA, MN, TN, UT, WA, & WV.
Not many IFPA tournaments either scheduled at this time along the Gulf Coast, except for Houston, Lake Charles, & Tampa.
Oh well. Keep flippin.
Quoted from Pinball-is-great:it seems like not much IFPA pinball league action going on right now.
The Lake Charles league is off to a good start. We had lines of people waiting to play the games on Tuesday. We normally finish a league session in two hours. It took us three hours and fifteen minutes for everyone to get their games in Tuesday.

Quoted from Mudflaps:Finally got ColorDMD installed for GB. Not sure how much more money I can dump into it... maybe $100 bills over the art blades?[quoted image]
Nice.
We just got our Seawitch up and running 100%
Plays lightning fast.
Loving it.

Hello everyone.
Romp in the Swamp (I think it is VI) will be on Sunday, April 14th. It will have one big main tourney using the match play format similar to what the Moncla Mafia utilize (though it will have a small variant to their format). It will have one sizable side tourney using the best game format (probably four games will be in play).
If anyone wants to bring an EM that game would be welcome. I plan to reach out to Sean and see if he can do some of those bangers or otherwise cater the event for us.
I hope some of our friends from Mississippi can join us and I hope some of our friends from Texas can join us. We will create the pages and IFPA entries soon with more details.
*Note, I had to change the date above from the Saturday the 13th to Sunday the 14th due to an unmovable schedule conflict I had.*
4/14 is Palm Sunday. Marked calendar. Too early to say, but will sure try!
In other news...
Sold the LOTR Sunday. Had a great run and almost made it to Valinor once or twice. Enjoy 
jsm172 !
Just bought a Deadpool Pro! Got a great new-out-of-the-box TPF demo deal from Marco/FUN!. Wish I could be there for the unboxing that Thursday, but not coming till Friday. Oh well. SO looking forward to it!

I’ll try to make this one if I can.
In other news, we’ll be moving to New Brunswick, NJ this summer. Still thrashing about on what to take with me or what to sell/trade/lend.
Maybe I’ll just offload everything and buy a Magic Girl.

I will also be selling my williams Funhouse
Bally Lost World is sold
Romp in the Swamp VI is now up on Pinside and has been submitted to IFPA: https://pinside.com/pinball/events/romp-in-the-swamp-vi-plus-side-tourney-2019
Save the date for April 14th, should be a fun Sunday.
Quoted from Daditude:I will also be selling my williams Funhouse

how much for funhouse?
Quoted from Zukboy2002:how much for funhouse?
3800. I just put a listing here on pinside
Romp in the Swamp VI and it’s side tourney we’re both approved by the IFPA. I still don’t have the food situation worked out but I certainly will.
I also see that Mississippi is looking at having another tourney in April. Perhaps a group of us can head over in a single vehicle and stay the night before or something.

The Dronets are a strong maybe!
Quoted from cadmium:The Dronets are a strong maybe!
That would be fantastic! I hope you all can make it. We’ve really been wanting to get over to you guys but it’s of course tough with a 2 year old.
PavBall, Jodester, and I are considering having a second side tourney exclusively on TSPP like we did during the Louisiana IFPA championships. TSPP is still resetting on occasion so it is likely not going to be in the main tourney but as a stand alone single best game side tourney (like it was at the state championship) it would do well. There would be no extra fee, it would just an extra IFPA event...it wouldn’t be worth many points but it would be a lot of fun.
The 5v adjust pot is already all the way up. So at this point I would probably suspect and replace the bridge rectifier. Assuming the connectors are still sound. 
The four games in the side tournament are currently planned to be: Varkon, TNA, AFM, and QS. These four games are subject to change but they are the four shortest ball time games in the house at the moment so we plan to use those for the side tournament.
I do plan to add the extra side tourney for TSPP. Probably will do that tomorrow.
Thanks!
I’d like to have Red River Replay in May this year. In 2018, I did May and Sept with good turnout.
Mudflaps will be leaving us around that time and this one will be the Mudflaps Invitational! I’m thinking of giving him glass off on one game of his choice 
so he can play like he does at home.
It’s a really busy month for us.
May 4 out of town
May 11 is my son’s confirmation and 12 is Mother’s Day
May 18 is likely my only open date
May 25 Memorial Day is out, I’ll be on vacation.
We can talk more as it gets closer

This is what I do to glass!

Listed my ST gang, though I’m pretty sure you guys all have one.
Edit: Sold
Quoted from Mudflaps:Listed my ST gang, though I’m pretty sure you guys all have one.
I might know a buyer for your Star Wars when you are ready to move on from that one bro. What happened to your black hole?
