I will try to answer everyone's questions and concerns at the moment!
Quoted from McCune:It has been that way for a half year or better . Thanks for the report . I'll got out on a limb as say no one was playing it either .
Quoted from lowepg:I think we have different definitions of "working"
Anyways, enjoy PHOF!
Quoted from Darcy:There is plenty of discussion regarding the PHoF. It could be a lot of things else.
I know I could not do what Tim does. Constant din of machines and complaining customers, would drive be nuts.
The WoZ is not with the row of new machines, it could be easily missed.
The WoZ is not in an isle of pins from the same "era". There are a lot of wedgeheads around it. The pin itself works. The only part that is not working correctly is the lighting. They are aware of it and said that they would fix it when they can get to it. I did not see anyone play it while I was there. It was probably a combination of things. 1. Lights out. 2. Not in a high traffic area. 3. Cost $1.00 to play.
They were very busy there today. Just keeping things running was a lot of work.
Quoted from cwell:My wife is watching Sister Wives and she noticed they were at the PHOF. I noticed they had a Metallica and LOTR near the door. There was a crowd around LOTR and no one around MET. Just an observation in a 2 second scene. I definitely want to go there someday.
The Metallica is by the door and costs $1.00 to play three balls. The LOTR is also near the door but is less money and 5 balls if I remember correctly. I had a great time there today but I had to leave early. I hope to make it back out there before leaving Vegas on Wednesday.
Quoted from joelreeves:Nice, glad you made it out there!
you get to put any $$ in Pinball Circus? Always wanted to play it.
Yes, played several games of Circus Pinball! How would you like to be the executive who decided not to send that pin to production?? Great game.
Overall, had a great time there today! Hope to go back maybe on Monday? A lot of work keeping those pins in a playable condition. Keep at it Tim!
I went back to the PHoF today and met up with fellow Pinsider, Unigroove! We spent some time talking about Tim's place and about his copy of Pinball Circus. He explained some of the different things that Python had wanted to do with it. We played a couple of games together before he wanted to go talk shop with Tim. Later in the evening, I invited Unigroove to share a meal with us and afterwards, we took a tour of the Las Vegas Strip via our rental car.
I had a great time tonight! I got to have a great conversation with a fellow Pinsider AND I got to play a lot of pinball! Keep up the good work Tim! BigB
