This was my 1st Pinball Tournament and I had a great time. Pinball is a life long love of mine and I had no idea there was a community out there! I am super excited to be involved and can't wait for any future events! I will be there! I'll post a few pics I took last weekend.
IMG_0745(1) (resized).jpgIMG_0739(1) (resized).jpgIMG_0740(1) (resized).jpgAlright gang, I submitted the results to the ifpa for Romp VI and the side tourney. My appologies for the delay and special thanks to Pinball-is-great for helping me sort out the ifpa submittal issue.
Pinball-is-great does an absolute superb job as our Louisiana ifpa rep and it’s much appreciated. The results should post tomorrow sometime.

Thanks for posting the pictures! I speak for all of us when I say we are super happy to have another person join our small group of pinheads here in Lake Charles and we are looking to you joining the league on April 30th.
We have confirmed with Sean in Houston that his fantastic smoked brisket will be arriving at our tournament in Beaumont on May 4th.
Even if you don't play in the tourney it is worth making the trip just for this melt in your mouth brisket.
We will also be providing all the sides. Beans, potato salad, rolls and the like.
So let's play some great pinball games and gain a few pounds while we do it.

Romp in the Swamp VI posted but only received 96% TGP? You might ask IFPA for to clarify as it should have been 100%.
It was 4 rounds 3 games 4 players. = 24 meaningful games played
Finals were 4 players, 3 players, final match. 4 or 4.5 meaningful games played
Total meaningful games played was at least 28. Maybe the finals weren't counted?
Cadmium,
I sent an email to IFPA about what you posted above, and I had TigerLaw on the cc list.
Thanks for your observation and posting a msg about it.
Enjoyed playing pinball and seeing you and your wifey at the tournament.
I think my score may have been entered in the side tournament - I was there just long enough to hang with Megatron for a few minutes. I don't even know if my low low Simpons score was for three balls or not. 
100% now! Thanks

Quoted from Nevus:Two games going out this week.
What's leaving?
Quoted from scottslash:What's leaving?
Good question...
Quoted from Nevus:Space for one will be open!
1C16031F-716E-44AC-95BE-F3D19AE8F3AF (resized).jpegQuoted from Nevus:Oh well...
I’m going to say the new game is Black Knight Sword of Rage.
Modern classic
I’m tempted by several things currently.
I wish Wonka was available to purchase instead of available to pre-order. 
I’m hoping to get Wonka at next years TPF!
BK looks interesting. I’m going to be able to play it this weekend when I travel for a work meeting.
Hopefully they'll only get a flesh wound or two during transport, and not Total Nuclear Annihilation. 
Quoted from Nevus:Nobody loads up games like my friend Charlie.
Yes, that’s his pickup.
[quoted image]
Ya actually that’s how most operators do. My friend that is the coin op in this area does the same thing.
Congrats to the winners from the Moncla Tournament! I’m in Dallas for a meeting this weekend or I would have made it.
As a consolation, I have been to B.O.S. Pinball, FUN and Cidercade. No pics, but I played a lot of pinball!
I’m looking forward to the RRR / Mudflaps Invitational in 2 weeks.
Did anyone take any photos of the Mafia’s tourney?
Also, Arcade let me know when you guys are coming by to pick up CSI to stream. Maybe mention your twitch channel in the for sale thread: https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/for-sale-csi-crime-scene-investigation-9#post-4977524
WavingWilly , I may need a hand or two to pick up Sopranos from Greg (he’s going to let me watch over it for the summer).

How was BK SOR?
Quoted from Mudflaps:How was BK SOR?
I wonder how it’s selling? I’ve heard very little about the release. I wish Lyman did the code.
Sorry. Always a bit late to post these.
Big congratulations go out to Jody for winning the tourney.
He played some spectacular pinball Saturday.
And if you have not heard Allen’s awesome commentary during the entire final 8, give it a listen.

Lake Charles is confirmed for sending five players to Shreveport. Who else is in for Nevus tourney?
After Shreveport what is next? Is the group up for a summer time Romp? Summers are often not as well attended as other times of the year but we are down for hosting if you guys are down for playing. Let us hear your thoughts.

Im in on RRR5 in shreveport, and would make it to a summer romp.
Crap! I now remember why I blocked it from memory - I will be at a bachelor's party and can't make it.
My son Chris (I've created a monster) 
and I will be there the 18th! Doing a swap in the driveway, too!
Quoted from Mudflaps:I’ll try to make it if I have time.
That'd be nice. LOL
Quoted from scottslash:That'd be nice. LOL
I can’t wait! Looking forward to having a great time and seeing everyone.
Edit: Except Jody
Quoted from Mudflaps:I can’t wait! Looking forward to having a great time and seeing everyone.
Even me? Doubtful.
Quoted from TigerLaw:Where is it going?
Yeah. And that looks like a big hole to be filled in before next weekend.
Lifesize statue of Mudflaps being delivered this week?
Quoted from Nevus:I’m going to have some fun surprises for the tournament!
Are we allowed to guess? I have a pretty good idea.
Quoted from Nevus:I’m going to have some fun surprises for the tournament!
I plan to leave with a pinball machine!
(Of course, I am bringing one for trade)
All hail Mudflaps!
Quoted from Mudflaps:Are we allowed to guess? I have a pretty good idea.
Sure, I won't spill.
