Quoted from ectobar:

jrobinso99 and pepermintswirl have awarded them the last 2 shows.

Guilty as charged. For the record Jay is in charge, I am just his minion

Quoted from Otaku:

Does anybody know who does the awards (and if that is still happening), like best original, best restoration, etc.? I assume there's some way to enter unless they just go through the whooooolllleeee show. Thanks!

No registration, we go through the whooooolllleeee show. If your machine is in the free play area, it is officially entered and eligible to be nominated.

I haven't spoken to the boss man about this years show so I cannot confirm 100% that the awards are happening but my guess is that they are. Once I have more details I will let you know.

Lastly thanks for your interest. It is nice to know that people care about the ribbons.

Since I have this thread open I figure I might as well let everyone know I am bringing a nice T2 with mods for sale and I am searching for a nice Flash Gordon to take home with me.

2017 Best in show winner Gatecrasher and his minty Bally Star Trek. It was a treat just to look at that machine, let alone play it.

2017 Best Restoration winner Redeyes with his BK2K. I saw him loading this machine into the back of a pick up with nothing but a tarp protecting it from the elements. That kind of deadication to bring games for free play is the kind of thing these ribbons were created to recognize.

Sadly I did not get pictures of the other winners and I cannot find the list I made with their names.

The best DMD went to TAFG. It was probably the nicest example I have ever seen. Tons of unique and tasteful mods.
The best SS went to the very shiny Genie that was at the beginning of the row near the snack bar. It must have sold while we were judging since when we went back to present the ribbion, it had been removed.
The best EM went to Ron C. for his Solar City.

Thanks again to everyone who brought machines for free play. This event truly is a result of everyone's passion for pinball.
