Quoted from Sborel:KISS and TWD fans will be able to play new code this Saturday at Fanny Anns Saloon.
I will be down there this Saturday see you there
Alex L CCPL
Quoted from Sborel:Got TWD updated to v1.41, and Met. to v1.64. No luck with KISS....I updated before to 1.03 with same memory stick, but pin wouldn't see info in stick this time. I was able to get GC on TWD with 106m, probably wont last long, right Alex?

yep scored 141 mil on TWD I figured kiss had that problem with the usb stick updating thanks for keeping the games there in tip top shape

Quoted from Xscrapiron:I think its Loren. He also put a nice WH20 at Dad's Kitchen in Sacramento
Wow I'll have to check that out soon I just added those games to the Sacramento pinball map earlier today the reason why I ask is that could be a potential league spot for the Capital Corridor Pinball League

Quoted from shovelhed:As much as I like scandia and a great job TJ has done! Fanny Anns in Sac has better pins and they are dialed in. Like playing nib collector quality pins.
Sborel says the trick to keep all the playfields clean is to put a small fan in the bottom of the playfield once the cabinet is cleaned up

Quoted from mof:eh? what fan do?
If you've ever gone to one of Sborel's locations which is playrite pinball btw, you'll notice the playfields are really clean, they stay that way because he installed a fan on the bottom underneath the playfield to keep the games from getting dirty you first have to clean the bottom too, otherwise it will just blow dust around but a small little fan from Wal Mart or so will do the trick the playfields there have never gotten dirty. Alex L CCPL
Quoted from moto_cat:His games are clean & dialed . I was at Fannie Anne's about a month ago and was definitely impressed with his games . I'd like to see his fan setup.
Yeah they totally are I play in the capital corridor pinball league ccpl and we have a league night there every other tuesday.

Quoted from TronGuy:I've been at CCPL-west
Someplace you clowns never go to anymore eh?
I am going to try to make your fundraiser later in the month.
I go to Fanny Ann's often too I played there last season.

Anybody in the Sac Area heard of 5 Alarm Pinball they got games at Woodstock Pizza in Davis and at Dad's kitchen they're maintenance is great I was just down at Woodstock's today
Quoted from izzy:Loren from Vacaville is 5 Alarm. He's a Captain in the VFD. Great guy, always a big help at PAGG and a host for the Solano Pinball League. I'm sure he'll chime in, once he see's your post.
Thats great I was just down there yesterday and played a nice Dirty Harry which is hard to find on route now a days.

Quoted from ntstlgl1970:Went there last night - played for 4 hours. Sucks that my car club meeting is the same schedule as CCPL (every other tuesday) until January. Until then, will be playing Lodi.
I'm finally starting to get comfortable on TWD, that game istotal brutal.jpg .......
TWD is a brutal game when I played it at first. Played it a couple more times and I really started enjoying I play this pin the most whenever I'm a fanny anns still haven't gotten the flow of Kiss yet but TWD I've mastered

Quoted from ntstlgl1970:GOT is on location at Coin Op Sacramento - it's the pro version.
I feel like there should be a launch party
Quoted from mrgone:I went to coin op today and played got pro.
Over all its pretty cool. Some of the shots are tight.
The light show is cool. Over all it seems to be fun.
I tried to play woz. The gi is out. All of the upper playfield lights out including inserts.
Really coin op? If you want me to continue to spend my money there you need to seriously get you act together and actually maintain your games. I'm really happy to give my money to the good ops here that take care of their games. Ie: fanny Ann's.
the op there actually cares and does a great job of maintaining the games. He will continue to get my money.
I went there today and played GOT I feel the same way about you I put up a 1.7 bil score on it. Maintenance is definitely a hit or miss here in my opinion too according to Jabbles180 I played tspp and the upper right couch flipper was a bit weak then it was about 3 weeks ago. Overall I think Joe does a great job of keeping the games there up and running. He has a lot to take care of and he told me that he had a brand new playfield coming in for WOZ soon when I last talked to him 3 weeks ago
Quoted from mrgone:well that sucks. there is still the one at sun splash. I hope you get one soon.
Yes there is one at Golfland and it is not well maintained at all for a new game weak flippers playfield is filthy and has old code so no medals the only plus about it is that the replay is pretty low
Alex L CCPL
Quoted from fattrain:He did get a brand new populated playfield. That WoZ gave him every single problem in the book from lifted inserts, multiple sets of light boards & broken mini-pf more times than he could count. I'm sure he just hasn't found time to put the new one in yet.
Yes, he is constantly telling me OP horror stories that I just can't believe. The things drunk idiots do to machines are mind blowing. Everything from breaking brand new light guns in half, to stealing the balls off all the joysticks, to putting dimes & nickels into the coin mechs. That is only the tip of the iceberg with all the mundane b.s. problems he deals with on a daily basis.
I totally understand where you're coming from but they are two very different locations. Coin-op has over 50 games & ~14 pinballs? The sheer amount of extra maintenance required (especially with the amount of foot traffic they get) is astronomical. Regardless though, I am just happy to have more location play around Sacramento! Flip on!
Yeah Joe has told me those stories too they are a bunch of drunk heads that think its funny to steal the basketballs out of super shot to holding the flippers up on the pinball machines while the women have long conversations with the flipper being held up he recently put a note middle of the playfield apron saying PLEASE DO NOT HOLD THE FLIPPERS if you do that he told me you will burn the flipper coil and blow out 10k resistor on the I/O board which causes the flippers to be weak that happened once on his TSPP.
Quoted from mrgone:That's what I thought. I have not been there since last summer. spiderman was in bad shape then. I figured Star Trek would end up the same way.
From what I heard they are Selling Spider man not sure if thats true or not though its at the back of the arcade now
Quoted from pinballholder:It's with great sadness that I must announce that the Blue Oaks Theater in Roseville (Highway 65 and Blue Oaks Blvd) has removed their only pinball machine, Star Trek (Pro).
Sigh, some one trade me one, pretty please...
I just removed it off the pinball map 
if I recall that had the latest code on it didn't it ?

Quoted from loren3233:To those who care to know...Five days ago there was a post on here by pinboy (which has since been removed) that stated there is a Medieval Madness at Woodstocks Pizza in Davis.
Today, I stopped by Woodstocks Pizza and there was no Medieval Madness on site and I also spoke directly with the Manager, who I know personally because I am the one who operates the current line up at Woodstocks Pizza (No Fear, Nascar, DH & RFM). The Manager said there has never been a Medieval Madness on site. I am posting this to let anyone know who may take a special trip to Woodstocks Pizza in Davis to put some time on a Medieval Madness to not waste a trip.
Not sure why it was ever posted in this forum in the first place....
Sorry for the misunderstanding I deleted that post and I was there Wed to play pinball there and also spoke to an employee there and said that there was not one on site I apologize for what I did I know some pinsiders will have some beef with me when I go to play in the Folsom CCPL league night tomorrow.

5th Annual Oktoberfest Pins & Pints Party in Vacaville
Hard to believe we have been doing this 5 years. We will be hosting our 5th Annual Oktoberfest Pins & Pints event at the house on October 6th.
All Pinheads are welcome, we just ask that you RSVP ahead of time so we can plan on how much food we need to purchase. We plan on having Mexican food this year from our local meat market (street taco style). We will have appetizers/chips/salsa/dips etc. Come on over for a laid back day of playing pins, relaxing with other people who enjoy playing pinball and a good beer or two. Good food, good beer and good pinball. The catch for the Oktoberfest event, as every year, will be to bring a 12-pack of some off the wall brand name beer for all to enjoy during the event and have a great time.
The event will start at 2:00pm and last until ??
If you have any questions feel free to send me a message.
Loren & YvetteI plan on being there Loren,
looking forward to a great time.
