Id be interested in this if it were once a month. I'm really digging the Pinvault league in Indy but find it hard to go all the way to lafayette for a weekly league. To be honest Ive been having trouble making it to lafayette for the Monthly League though too!

Just come when you can, only your top 6 weeks count for scoring and you only need to attend half the weeks to play in the end of season tournament if you wanted to play in that.

Relatively new to the hobby but already sitting at 2 pins and don't see a slowdown in the future. Located in Fort Wayne

Well hey Ft. Wayne... welcome! Looks like you started off with 2 KILLER pins. Love me some FT. Don't see too many RZ's around here, but it was fun when I played it. Love the call outs on that one.

If you are interested in a once a month league in Bloomington please let me know as I am compiling a list. Don't think it would be a "set" date; more like whatever works best for Chris (and everyone else) that month. Looks like we got about 5 thus far. Keep em comin.

I'll just throw it out there that the NW Indiana league will be starting up again 7/13 as well. Don't think there are any pinsiders in our area that don't already know.

Should also mention Main Street Mayhem is coming up September 16-17 in Lafayette. Tickets went on sale about two weeks ago and we are down to 10-12 spots left. 48 player maximum matchplay tournament at Indiana's largest pinball arcade Main Street Amusements. More info here.

And since the Hoosier club is busy today which doesn't happen often I picked up some EMs in a group package but didn't plan to keep them all so if anyone is looking for some project EMs let me know.

Tommy what do I need to do to get this league going down here? Being a complete newb to this my 1st guess would be people.
Workin on that.
And then.....? On that note I should be able to find time once a month to hit MSA. I'm doing myself a disservice by not.

Cool posters like you have would help. But probably not.

Kind of like field of dreams man, start it and they will come. It's not for everyone but it sure seems to be for most people once they try it out. To me it's much more about the social experience. I love knowing on Tuesday nights I'm going to be out of the house and hanging with my friends. Yeah sometimes I play good and sometimes I'm disappointed, but a night at pinball league beats a night doing about anything else to me.

*dabs tear from eye*
Well said fine sir, well said.

Says the #1 player in the state and reigning IN champion.

Sounds like Tues nights are the nights to be there. Or would less crowded maybe a better choice to hit machines?

I had a lucky day, they happen.

Also starting up a new Novice league in Lafayette at a smaller location. Not IFPA associated and just to get people introduced to pinball. Smaller location with just 5 games but I hear the operator is trying really hard to keep them playing nice. We start this Thursday at 7PM down at Jerilees Pub in Lafayette. I'll be there to help organize and provide some coaching and I think we will have a few other people with some experience there to help do the same thing.
Games are Metallica, Congo, Fish Tales, Prospector, and Baywatch.

I doubt I will make it down to Lafayette for weekly league play, but I will definitely make a point of showing up for one of the league nights!

Here's a couple pics taken in May when there was 4 of the current 5 machines.
Nice! Working pins on location, priced reasonably.

House all to myself tonight,... feel like a 15 yr old kid. Who wants to come over and drink all Dad's booze?!
C'mon down!

Tomorrow night at 8 (don't miss El Rusho) at the Black Circle Brewing Co with BONUS 2 pins.
