Hey everyone,

I am having an all day open house party at my place tomorrow that will run from 12:30 pm until whenever (i am sure people will still be around until 2-3 am). I wanted to do a fun experiment because of my own curiosity. I want to hold a contest on what game in my collection will receive the most plays.

The winner of this contest will be the person that picks the game with the most plays. If more than one person picks the game, the tie breaker will be the total number of plays played over the course of the day. We are not savages out here people so Price is Right rules (closest without going over). So, when you make your choice, also post the total number of plays you think it gets over the course of the day.

We are expecting about 50 total people to show up in some capacity tomorrow. mostly family and friends, but at least 10 are expected to be pinheads, so keep that in mind.

Here is the lineup:

Baby Pacman (dialed in, very nice shape. I have had this the longest. Almost 3 years)
Fire! (very nice shape too. I have had this for about 1.5 years)
WCS (new game! have had it for about 2 weeks and just finished a nice shop of it and looks great)
LW3 (great shape too, and I have had this for about 6 months)
Big Game (players condition, I have had this for 2.5 years)
GOT Pro (NIB original owner. I have had this since February)
Odds and Evens (amazing original condition. I have had this since October)
Grand Prix (good shape players condition. I have had this for like 2 weeks)

Prizes to be determined, but probably some LEDs from Comet and/or Titan silicone rings.

Let the games begin!! Must post here to be eligible (game and number of plays). International contestants welcome too! I will ship to the moon if I have to so that you can get your prize.

I will post the current plays on the games before bed tonight so that everyone knows the starting point for each game.

Good Luck!!

question, is this specifically a party centered around pinball? (if so then GoT with 93 plays)

or is this a regular party that just so happens to have pinball for play? (if so then WCS with 53 plays)

Would it be considered cheating if I guess GOT and a very high number then come over and just stand there with my cooler of beer next to me pumping short games through it? (to be honest, my games are usually pretty quick anyway because I suck - especially on GOT!)
