Pin-a-Go-Go 2016: Call for Games

Quoted from Miguel351:
Oh, don't worry, both of my games are 100% working and have been for a long time. My TZ kinda scares me since it's been working so well for so long….I mean, it's a TZ, there's always SOMETHING that acts up right?
I don't think I'd mind if either of my games were chosen for the tourney. They both play pretty strong and fast. Don't think it'd be fair if I entered the tourney at that point, though.
I'll be replacing most, if not all the rubbers, giving them a thorough cleaning, and putting new balls in a couple weeks beforehand as well as giving them a good shakedown in that time. I read vid's post about how to ready your machines for a show.

Awesome, looking forward to playing them!

Honestly, I can't wait to share them. I've been going to Pin-a-Go-Go for many years, even before I had pins. I'm so happy to finally be able to bring my games and give back to the very function and people that rekindled my love of pinball.

And the free weekend pass is a good reason, too…….

I will be bringing PUNK! A total restoration by the system 80's guru, better known as Steve Charland. Pinside's (blownfuse).
A long story. Many people know it. If you have any interest, go to RGP.com where Steve totally busted one George Riley. A good read, despite my junior high school eenglash....
Many people responded to me about their bad experiences with GR. However, one sent me a Bill Davis Clear coated
Punk! playfield for 450 shipped! As much as George screwed me, I met so many great people because of him!

I saw your Punk! Over at his place when he was working on it, looks amazing! It's the pin I am by far the most excited to play.

I played a Popeye at 8 bit arcade and really liked it. It'd get a lot of play of someone brings one to PaGG.

While we're talking games we'd love to see, I'd love it if Godzilla made it again. My wife would love to play Monster Bash.

I'm already on the list with Tron and Dirty Harry. Just outfitted Tron with the lit ramps - she'll be all dolled up for y'all.

..but not the pretty Tron?!

I played DH in League last night, seems to be doing its job of kicking ass and taking names.

Your posters are the Coolest, Steve! I'll need to replenish my stock - a few of them were given away as prizes at a Tourney we held down in Monterey - I want the full set back!

You know.... I just can't get into Tron (ducks as rocks are thrown)

Thanks for the compliments on the posters! Tell you what, you buy one set I will give you a second set free for giveaway at your next tourney! Make sure you introduce yourself to me again if we haven't already met.

I see two Sopranos are coming. That's awesome. One of the few Sterns I've never played. Hopefully at least one of them will be on Adult Mode.

And I'm hoping someone brings a Gilligan's Island.

Don't worry, if any rocks are thrown, they'll have el wire wrapped around them - you'll see them coming from a mile away.

GI is actually a really fun game. I've helped fix a guy's GI here in town and I usually put a few games on it after I'm done. For the money these go for, they're a pretty sweet deal for a great game.

You can volunteer to help set up Thursday or Friday morning. Meet other pinheads, catch what's on sale early. PM pinballholder for details.

Is it safe to assume there will be volunteers there just for helping people unload games? My loading helper won't be going with me to PAGG.
