I hope I can make it. Fingers crossed.

I will be there! Not sure which day but at least one of them. Who's selling stuff? Who's bringing pins to play?

I'll be there too. Bringing a hopped up MGoW for people to play if I can get it finished in time. I have some games to sell but I'm not bringing them, time won't permit. I may have some items for the fleamarket if there's one this year.

My son and I will be there for load in Thursday morning until the end of load out on Monday.
Bringing AFM, FT, Hulk LE and ToM.

I hope to meet you guys ^^^^ this year
Ill be bringing my Diner and Taxi.

Hoping to be there from Thurs for the load in and setup to Sunday.....

Hoping to bring a DW this year if it is finished in time. Otherwise just lending labor to helping a local bring 27+ games.

The wife and I are attending Saturday, hope to meet some fellow Pinsiders and maybe come home with some new addition for the game room that will be 10k by Christmas

Looking forward to playing AFM!

I'll be there again this year. I might be bringing home a pin depending what people bring to sell. If you are bringing pins to sell, I'd love for you to pm your list to me.

Yes, let's get a pict too of our group.

I will be there for sure! great show with good people.

I will be there Friday through Monday and plan on bringing a few pins. Looking forward to meeting Pinside members.

I'll be there for sure!

Count me in! Gonna bring a few pins, not sure which ones though...

Definitely going. Don't think I'm bringing a game, though. Kind of a long haul for that.

PaGG is one of my favorites! I'll be there set up as usual offering board and game repair.

I'm going to try to make Saturday - will there be some type of tournament going on?

There is a tournament, the PAGG site has not updated that section for 2013 yet though, but I know there will be one. I believe it is on the Saturday.

Bring your Shadow, been too long since I played one.

Won't be bringing it with me, but give me a couple weeks to get it clean and tight and you can come play some games

Edit - Ha, thought that was to me, offer still stands.

Yes, there is a tournament on Saturday. Entry is $5 and all entry money goes to Pin a Go Go's charities.

Format is a 6-hole pin golf with expert and novice finals. There's also a kids tournament which is a high score format. Like the show, the tournaments are fairly relaxed, social and fun.

I'm working on some logistics with organizers because last year it sold out very quickly and I had to turn away a lot of players. There will be a LOT more space this year so if they can get me enough games, the player cap will be 100, otherwise it will have to stay at 64 like last year. Also, if I get enough volunteers I would like to do a side tournament.

I will post on pinside when more details are available, as well as on my blog at http://pinballbayarea.com

Hope you can make it!

Cool, thanks for the info!

Edit: I'll be there with at least 1 pin

I will be there on Saturday. Getting married the following weekend, so to much stuff will be going on to manage to be there that entire weekend.

I see you did sell that demo man after all to get the Shadow. I will take you up on it!

If I go, I will not bring a pin since it's my first time.

I will be there either Thursday or Friday to Sunday. I'm bringing two of my friend's games that I'm finishing up with cab decals: MB and a CC.

If all goes according to plan, the CC will have the updated software created by epthegeek (Cactus Canyon Continued) using the PROC controller board and a shuttle computer. I hope to get this set up in the next week or two to start testing it out for PAGG!

That's awesome! Great, you're hired! You can still compete, of course. Right now I'm looking to fill spots to help run Kids or the Side Tourney. I'll be in touch.

I have been having a real problem with thieves and vandals in my neighborhood so I have to convert my garage back to a garage for my vehicles.
I need to sell six games to make this happen.
If you want any of the games I have except Shrek that is my sons game PM me and if we can make a deal I can bring it to PAGG.

I am really sorry to hear that, such a shame people have no respect for others property. Is there no alternative like security lights, or a car alarm, or a German Shepard?

I have 4 German Shepherds but my house is on the downside of the mountain and my garage and parking are up on the street level so you can't see or hear anything.
There are only 3 sheriffs up here between Big Bear and Crestline and they emptied the jails so they won't even come out to take a report.
They told me I am on my own but I can't retaliate or I go to jail.
The cars are alarmed but don't go off when they steal gas or fog lights.
They already stole the security lights.
When the sun goes down the road walkers in the hoodies come out, the only option is the garage.
I can't keep losing 200 bucks worth of gas a month and buying new caps.
The fog lights were 300 bucks.
I forgot to pull my hitch out of the receiver and they got that also.
It sucks but I can't be the free gas station any longer.
Gas up here is almost 5 bucks a gallon and this is rampant all over the mountain now and only getting worse.

Ugh, have you bought a high quality locking gas cap? I know that wont solve all your other problems, but might solve that one. My work van in west Oakland would be siphoned of all its gas every weekend but then we bought a locking gas cap and that did not happen anymore.

This isn't the screw in type, I have already gone through 3 locking caps and they just pop them off and toss them into the woods.
If they can't get them off they go under the van and cut the hose.
I am out of options and they need to go in the garage, I am already over a grand in losses and damage this year.
I wish I could bring the games down into the house but there is just no more room.

That sucks man.

Tracelifter - for those who don't know, has helped supply games to the tournament at Pin a Go Go the last two years. Good guy.

Imma try my damnedest to make it this year!!

Not only that, but Eric and Josh IMHO are one of the reasons that PaGG even exists. They're both there first thing in the morning to open things up, the last to leave and lock things down at night, and work their a$$€s off all in between to make sure everything is loaded, powered, working, setup, etc., etc., etc. It's amazing the amount of work they do over the PaGG weekend!

Will be there with my oldest son and couple friends, we aren't good enough for a tournament therefore we kinda have our own little tournament amongst ourselves. Good fun and braggin rights!!

Damn Eric, that's a tough situation. Sorry to hear.

I'll be there if my wife isn't in labor!

Todd

+1 to this! Josh busted his ass last year helping us load in and load out!

Aack! I'm moving as fast as I can.

Looking good BF.
Did you convert the game to 7 digit displays?

My mechanic buddy stopped by and he has a small saddle tank we are going to install on the van and we will route another filler hose to it.
I am going to give them another 5 gallons of special gas with a bottle of corn syrup in it.
They won't be needing any more free gas once they pour this into their car.

Yep, I'm making almost all of my games into 80A's.

I love it, that'll take care of the gas problem.

Woah, that is diabolical!

I have never had the pleasure of playing that pin, looking forward to it. I noticed you have a Pink Panther in your collection. I played one of those for the first time last year, such a great pin.

If you played it at PAGG, it was mine.

I almost asked if it was, nice pin!
