I've got the following games in a local brewpub and wonder if someone's got a shortcut I could use for PinGolf rules.
The line-up is:
TMNT (Stern, Pro)
Stranger Things (Stern, Pro)
Flash (WMS)
LW3 (DE)
Count Down (GTB)
Solar Ride (GTB)
Black Knight SOR (Stern, Prem)
Car Hop (GTB)
Pinball Magic (Capcom)
ACNC (Spooky)
Silverball Mania (Bally)
TIA!
Quoted from DK:Fun list of games!
Jealous. Where is it located?
Anchorage, Alaska. I'll buy you a beer.
Quoted from DK:I was there in June! Are these your pins as well? Place was called Koots. I got the GC on LAH and HS

Different bar, but yes those are mine also - High Speed and Surf 'n' Safari sold to new homes. I have five at Koot's still - JP Stern, Stargate, the Getaway, Buck Rogers, Elektra.
The bar where I'm going to do the PinGolf is called "Williwaw Social", downtown Anchorage.
It's been very hard on bar and restaurant owners in Anchorage with so many shutdowns. Many didn't survive.
If you're back in Anchorage, let me know.
Quoted from dendoc:Do you want score based or objective based?
I prefer objective because it can be played easily without understanding the rules of the game. I also had different objectives for "experienced" vs "new" players to try and give everyone a chance.
For example - ACNC - experienced was start Frank multiball, new player start crypt multiball. Set games to 5 ball, maximum score is 6.
Stranger Things - experienced start Telekenesis multiball, new player kill one demogorgan.
The other games I'm sure you can come up with something similar (not always starting multiball, just something easy to see and explain).
You can record the overall number of balls needed for each task, or I did a funky thing where players were in pairs and recorded each others times (max 5 mins). Pairs were new and experienced together, and the average time for both added together for their score. Lowest time wins. Really encouraged cooperation and coaching (Non IFPS of course).
I think those are good tips.
I've never run a PinGolf tournament before (have run several knockout tournaments), so the format is new.
Interested to know the player format for the two man scramble and how it will work.
Is that how PinGolf is typically run? Two teams of to each?
