Behind the scenes stuff is rolling. Just spoke with Rob Berk.
I hope this all works into a really great Expo !

Quoted from Yelobird:I'm in for a #LTG fireside chat. "The now and then of pinball". or "The behind the scenes life of tech support". Sharing the crazy creative adventures of NIB owners. lol "you realize its not plugged in right???"
The last two years I've been after the JJP fireside chat Thursday night. And I've had a limited edition mug just for my seminar. This year's mug will be special.
And I do get the occasional plug came loose in the rear of the cabinet. When anyone loses power I now ask them to plug something into the service outlet to see if we have power that far or not.
LTG : )
Quoted from Yelobird:Looks like a late night to catch the Lloyd show. But worth it...
Surprised me. I thought I'd be Thursday night after the Jersey Jack Pinball fireside chat. Seems we both got moved.
Looking into limited edition mugs for my show and maybe a shirt or two.
LTG : )
Quoted from KingBW:LTG is always good for a conversation or questions
Or mug. Or limited seminar mug.
LTG : )
I hope things work out fast.
Mike is an important part of Expo and I fear Expo would seem something less if when you walk in and Mike and his booth aren't to your right.
LTG : )
Quoted from dirtbag66:What about the people who bring in machines and never turn them on? I went to Expo on three separate occasions last year and that Apollo 13 was always off.
Pretty weak if you ask me.
Quoted from mrbillishere:Games must be in 100% working order in order to qualify as a "Game Brought".
I would think working includes being turned on for the whole show.

Quoted from tamoore:Sunday might still suck...
Sunday was removed from the schedule, wasn't it ?

Quoted from robotron911:I looked at vendors list and no Color DMD. I was hoping they would run the special that if you bought ahead of show, then you could pickup there and save shipping.
Email Randy and ask.

Quoted from Jared:See you guys in Chicago. It's gonna be a blast!
Now that you'll be there, yes, a blast !
LTG : )
Quoted from tbaum:My wife and I are thinking of coming down from Champaign, but probably only for one day/night. Any suggestions on which evening would be the best?
Look over the schedule and see what interests you most :

Quoted from mikepin:come on guys chime in here for all those i helped....
You always helped me Mike.
I hope you have a table at Expo and can be there.
If you do your own Chicago show, I'll be there.
LTG : )
Quoted from Yelobird:When or where do you get this packet?
At a table in the front hallway. Tell the ladies your name and they'll have it ready for you.
Can't miss it. Table lined up with shirts and stuff, and tournament games past it.
LTG : )
Quoted from Yelobird:When or where do you get this packet?
When you arrive. Schedule here when it opens - http://pinballexpo.com/forms/PinballExpoSchEvents2018.pdf

Quoted from KingBW:you're censoring your mug tease ... could there be a JJP reveal right before your shindig?
My censored mug tease is to hide a bad word.
Nothing to do with JJP before or after.
LTG : )
Quoted from lancestorm:I thought it might be a little rip at Zen Studios for censoring some of the animations on the B/W games.
Not at all.
Pinside is family friendly. The back of that mug is not.
LTG : )
Quoted from Fortytwo:Is stern doing some party this year. I may have missed it on their Facebook page.
http://pinballexpo.com/forms/PinballExpoSchEvents2018.pdf
4pm on Saturday on, noted Stern speakers. Then at 8pm - Stern - O - Rama.
Looks like an exciting time.
LTG : )
Getting real now. Vendor map is up - http://pinballexpo.com/forms/ExpoFloorLayoutA.pdf

Quoted from gweempose:It looks like they changed things around this year and moved the entrance.
Changed a lot. Last year Chicago Gaming was kind of across and down the row from Jersey Jack Pinball. So I'll be running back and forth from Jersey Jack Pinball, Pinport, Chicago Gaming. And visit with my friends at American Pinball, Pincades, Back Alley, and say hi to Doug and company at Stern.
I'm going to lose weight this year, not be able to sit in one spot and see everything.

Quoted from chad:I think a lot of people will get the 10,000 steps in each day.
Not me. I'm renting one of those carts so I can mow people over or chase them.
Expo here I come !
LTG : )
Quoted from Eric_S:Have 2019 dates been announced yet?
16th to the 20th - http://pinballexpo.com/
LTG : )
Quoted from Fortytwo:Man I didn’t even see Lloyd at expo. Though I was there by my game most the weekend.
I'm sorry I missed you. Bad thing about Expo is you can't do everything and see everybody.
I think your game was in a room I didn't even get into.
LTG : (
Quoted from tmntrule999:Is the plan as of now for this convention to still run this year?
Apparently. Unless they are waiting on the city or state to close events so they aren't out a lot of money on their hotel contract if they cancel it.
