what game are you looking for? If something 1994 or older then LMK and I could possibly bring something.
Quoted from Whysnow:what game are you looking for? If something 1994 or older then LMK and I could possibly bring something.
Thank you for your offer. Mainly a game(s) that has decent mod potential. From the 90s, games like tz, taf, ss, etc and just about any stern from 2003+.
Quoted from Ed_in_Texas:Presenting the TPF 2018 theme and shirt design! Art by Blake Dumesnil. "Kosmic Khaos" concept by Mark Ritchie (more on that to come).

Will this be made available in poster/print format? I think you would sell a ton of these if you do. See Pinsanity posters and their popularity...

You bringing Batman SLE again?
I’m bringing the funk! Haven’t showered in 2 months!
For anyone who couldn't get a room at the festival, I stayed at the Westin down the road last year and the rooms and resort were really nice. I plan to stay there again this year.
Quoted from Jeremy8419:For anyone who couldn't get a room at the festival, I stayed at the Westin down the road last year and the rooms and resort were really nice. I plan to stay there again this year.
There is also the hyatt which appears to be directly across the street and possibly closer to the actual game area?
Quoted from Mudflaps:You bringing Batman SLE again?

hmmm not sure yet. might bring an arcade game this year.
We are staying over at Home2 Suites again this year. Booked it last night so we are ready to go. Its not right across the street but its a very easy walk and no reason to even drive.
Quoted from Whysnow:There is also the hyatt which appears to be directly across the street and possibly closer to the actual game area?
Yeah. The Wyndam is on a golf course. Just a nice resort, in my opinion.
If you need a room for TPF, there are several great hotels within walking distance. The Hyatt House lobby is just as close or closer to the show entrance as the Embassy. TPF rates for surrounding hotels are on the TPF hotel page (if there is no link, you will need to call.

I’ll be there... arriving Saturday afternoon, probably drunk by dinner, kicked out before closing, and sneaking in the next day wearing a fake mustache.
Looks like five more Pinsiders have now marked that they are planning to attend TPF-2018:
Titan_Pinball
wallybgood
dannunz

Sinestro
Party on Garth!
I’ll be coming as well. We will be hosting the FUN! Booth with probably 12-14 machines including new Sterns, CGC and API Games.
Me and my son are also doing our first father/son full restoration on our Nitro GroundShaker we hope to have ready in time for TPF.

Myself and two friends will be back for our sixth year. Looking forward to another great year. Couldn't get into the embassy but around the corner at another hotel.
I will be there for my 3rd straight year. Met my wife there for the first time in 2015 so this is definitely an annual event for us!

Quoted from SilverballNut:I'll be there along with family and my brother.
Ill be there with my brother too!
Mine will be in the KingPin Games booth with me along with the game he (and his team) designed, JJP Pirates of the Caribbean!
I will be there - attempting to retain my 'PartyKing' honorary title. I may bring Alien...not 100% sure at the moment. ...may also bring the wife, though that's not 100% sure either.
Quoted from parsonsaj:I will be there for my 3rd straight year. Met my wife there for the first time in 2015 so this is definitely an annual event for us!
Really? I've not heard of too many couples forming at pinball festivals, that's awesome!

That pic is awesome! That was a fun night. Martjin is also coming I believe.
Gosh, I’m glad I’m going. Last year was the first year I’ve missed since 2012 I believe. We made arrangements with my mother to watch the baby so we will be totally free and ready to party!
I'll be there, I'll have a booth where I'll be selling my portable rotisserie along with other gaming and pinball related items, and will have Polynesia restored, polished, and finalized by NicoVolta and myself on the exhibit floor.
Quoted from MT45:Just confirmed hotel and registration as well. My wife and I both attending. Our very first event after collecting for 6 years! Super excited
You picked a great one for your first event. Hope your wife is not too freaked out by all the pin heads. Ha!
Ya'll are making me sad that I'm probably not going to be there at all, and I was totally cool with that... =(
