Looks like I'm hauling two games down for pinsiders. Which leaves me space for one...
What to bring, what to bring...

I may bring my Caribbean Cruise for sale. Nice condition, but a parrot lost his head in the top right corner. Comes with a complementary vinyl bandage and a case of beer. We can also gamble and make up rules as we go. :}

Please do. I'd like to play it.

I've started with 5 games. I'm sure i will be adding to the list of games from me. Just want to know what I've got as it gets closer, due to moving a bunch of games around. Plus, all the project machines idk if I'll have up or not until it gets closer to may.

Thanks Seth, for the reminder. This show works because of amazing collectors sharing their games with others. I learned last year that it feels great to bring a game and see it put smiles on people's faces. Also, those who volunteer to help at the event.

I have a couple EMS that could show up if the EM list is short handed as long as we have a tech that can help me clean reels. For some reason I am terrible at cleaning reels. I have less working after cleaning than before I touched them. Gahh...!!!

Izzy, are you doing a pinball tech seminar for working on EMs this year? I need all the help I can get! Haha. I swear working on EMs is like an artform. An artform I haven't even come close to perfecting yet.

Bring nine ball and sell it to me =P haha

Sorry premature posting about some classic sterns I was bringing

Do the games have to be pre-approved now before you bring them? I usually pick something out of my lineup and bring it, sometimes the decision is last minute.

Steve

Oh good. You know me, I have a lot going on so I'm a last minute kinda guy. Still working on two "over the top" (each for a different reason) Punk's. Are there any other Punk pinballs locally in the SFBA? I only know of the two.

Steve

There is one local here in Sac that is probably available to play.

Looking forward to these punks more than anything!

Signed up my games. Thinking about what else I can bring

Bump for pagg. 40 days away.

bump. this thread needs to be burning up right now.

I couldn't wait...Just booked a room at New York New York to bet on the Masters and play pinball.

Can't wait to see you, Spencer. Love having your enthusiasm back. So happy you're feeling better!

Sorry for the duplicate post- wondering if it is worth bringing a High Speed with issues. No background sound and left sling causes a short so it's disconnected.

On the plus side, it has a very nice fast playfield and a pinduino light show.

I'd bring something nicer if I had anything!

I'm doing my therapy every day. By pagg I will be back to my fighting weight. I can't wait to see you brother. We are going to shake the earth this year.

Let's see if we can get that sling fixed so you can bring it. No one will be able to hear the background sounds anyway.

Pm me about the sling and I'll help as much as I can

Thanks, Cheddar. PM sent.

Bump, let's light this up.

We've got a DE Simpsons and Bally Wizard! coming up with us, for play and for sale/trade. There might be a Bally Playboy coming along as well.

I'm taking a Popeye and JD for play and sale/trade.

more games were added to the list this morning! great work pinheads. lets keep it going. we have 2 buildings to fill.

what is the rule on just bringing 1 game?

You get our thanks! Still have to pay to get in

the game count is at 84. that's a good start. the goal is 300 games. 37 days until pagg. pinheads, lets get those games on the list.

see you at pagg.

Cool thanks. I am eager to attend as this will be my first time--we have a family reunion every year on the 3rd weekend in May; and luckily, PAGG counted the weekends differently than the family did this year.

Awesome! make sure to say hello and we can get a cold drink and talk story. years ago when I was a route tech in pest control I used to work in the shingletown area now and then.

The list is good to know, in that it may give someone an idea what might be there. People bring what they bring, many at the last moment. It has been this way for years. The pin count is a moot point, since there are always more games there than the venue can even support....

Flash! Keith Elwin is bringing his archer pin to pin a go go. its going to be the best pin a go go ever.

want to bring some pins this year, will be there Friday morn, but absolutely 100%, have to leave Sunday morning. What's the protocol on that?

That is simply awesome news!!

So I'm more than willing to bring my gorgeous WCS94 that was restored by pinwillie and my super nice rollergames for people to play, but two problems. My transport only holds one, and I won't be there until closing on Sunday. Plus with a newborn I have to make it easy on myself and especially my wife.

So if there's an east bay truck or one that's coming up 80 I can throw mine in. I'm about five minutes up a hill of highway 80. Let me know.

Hey Steve,

I still have the Pinside ID badges from last year and will make sure they get to the show. Is there a table/place where you would like to have them placed?

Loren

I totally forgot! I have a few left as well. You going to be there early Friday? I plan on helping set up

Probably get there Thursday depending if I get back from the honeymoon soon enough, if not, it will be Friday

Cool, let's touch base closer but plan on Friday morning. Congrats on the honeymoon!

Sounds good...Thanks

I'm bringing all two of my pins.

Couple of quick questions since this is my first time bringing them to a show:

Is there a way to keep them close to each other or even next to each other? (Is it based on how quickly I can bring them in?)

Do I keep my tools and parts bags with/near the machines or do folks just leave them in their vehicles?

Will there be "Not For Sale" labels available? (Or should I make some for myself?)

Any other hints/tips for a first-time game bringer?

Bring pins. Bring them all! I was just screwing around to see if my maiden voyage onto Pinside would go through....
Seth, Brad, Loren, mostly Yvette. Glad to see you made it back Spencer!

thank you. its good to be back. see you at pin a go go.

you should be able set up games together or at least close, PAGG has had labels in the past, and u can store your tools/spare parts in the "pinball medic" room. Put fresh pinballs in your games, and check posts, plastic nuts, etc. for tightness.
