    I call this my Eccentric Room. Its right outside my main game room and I use it as a spill over, lounge area. I use to call it my Wood Room but my girlfriend and I broke up.

    Out of camera range are a Goldeneye and Capt. Fantastic but not included in this contest.

    Anyway, there are eleven (11) games or game references in this picture. Find them, name them and general location if possible (so others can see) Making a guess is fine and jokes are always welcome in my postings.

    Some of them are easy, some of them hard, and one is damn near impossible. I'll be impressed if anyone finds it. - Winners will receive a hardy handshake at Expo.

    I'll begin:

    1. Fathom pinball machine.

    -DSCN1557_1.jpg-DSCN1557_1.jpg

    #2 8 years ago

    Centigrade 37 over the fireplace.

    #3 8 years ago

    2. Dr Who - Phone Booth
    3. Centigrade 37 - Backglass

    #4 8 years ago

    3) Circus Voltair backglass under the Fathom.

    #5 8 years ago

    CV Backglass behind Fathom?

    Quoted from pantherpinball:

    2. Dr Who - Phone Booth

    Thought it had to be a public call box, not a standard phone booth

    #6 8 years ago

    batman forever unpopulated playfield

    #7 8 years ago

    Shuffle puck / alley bowler - back right room

    Backgammon - lower left

    #8 8 years ago

    I'll guess a Roy Clark The Entertainer, sit down machine.

    #9 8 years ago

    Mars Trek - Backglass

    #10 8 years ago

    Small stain ( cleaned up cat vomit?) on floor in front of fireplace

    #11 8 years ago

    Bust on the mantel looks like Bride of Pinbot to me, but I think I'm grasping at straws there...

    #12 8 years ago
    Quoted from CaryCarmichael:

    I'll guess a Roy Clark The Entertainer, sit down machine.

    Could be a Roy Clark, I am thinking Allied Leisure over Fascination. But there are a couple that look like that.

    #13 8 years ago

    Whirlwind in the room next to the phone booth.

    #14 8 years ago
    Quoted from The_Gorilla:

    Snall stain ( cleaned up cat vomit?) on floor in front of fireplace

    Bad Cats?

    #15 8 years ago
    Quoted from pantherpinball:

    2. Dr Who - Phone Booth

    Quoted from Yoko2una:

    Thought it had to be a public call box, not a standard phone booth

    Phone booth is not Dr Who and is the real deal. 1971 all wood booth out of a court house in southern Colorado. I spent about 30 hours cleaning and restoring it. It is HUGE and HEAVY.

    Before picture in my backyard.

    These are my guesses for the black cabinet that is facing away under the unpopulated playfield next to the entrance to the room with the air hockey table

    1.Star Guards
    2.Rampage

    Quoted from Atreyu:

    1.Star Guards
    2.Rampage

    Wrong. But because you spotted the black cabinet I will give you a limp, fingers only hand shake at Expo.

    #18 8 years ago

    Superman for the phone booth?

    #19 8 years ago

    I stand corrected. Not 11 but 12 games or game references.
    (Let me know if you still want that hardy hand shake)

    #20 8 years ago

    Are there two backglasses under the Fathom? Looks bigger than just the CV.

    #21 8 years ago

    Coulda used a higher res photo there, man.

    #22 8 years ago
    Quoted from Mr68:

    Wrong. But because you spotted the black cabinet I will give you a limp, fingers only hand shake at Expo.

    I spotted the black cabinet but have no idea. Strange shape, no side art and very tall. Tall like a dart board but seems too thick and can't be used where it is.

    And I saw what looked like backgammon but it was not complete. Are you supposed to pretend the black triangle landing places are between the white ones?

    #23 8 years ago
    Quoted from angus:

    Are there two backglasses under the Fathom? Looks bigger than just the CV.

    Yes but I wasn't counting it in the contest as you really can't see it. Some of you guys are scaring me...

    #24 8 years ago

    A deck of cards on the crane's foot.

    #25 8 years ago
    Quoted from epthegeek:

    Coulda used a higher res photo there, man.

    You computer guys would be peeking in my bathroom to see if I was using single or double ply tissue.

    #26 8 years ago
    Quoted from scokes:

    A deck of cards on the crane's foot.

    That alone references 183 games from ipdb.

    #27 8 years ago
    Quoted from Aurich:

    Centigrade 37 over the fireplace.

    #29 8 years ago

    I'm going to guess the cocktail is Night Moves, because per your post history you have both International Concepts games like NM more And surely no one their right mind owns THREE cocktail pins!

    #30 8 years ago
    Quoted from gabegabegabe:

    Batman Forever unpopulated playfield

    I had a cabinet made for it, note the wood arch at the bottom. Hot glued Christmas lights to the back of the playfield with 5 different flashing patters. Great effect with martinis.

    Bad pictures but you already know that.

    Does the telephone count as a WD? reference?

    #32 8 years ago

    the crane on fireplace could reference last action hero.

    #33 8 years ago

    MCI Airball

    #34 8 years ago

    The carpet represents LAH!

    ..Wait.

    #35 8 years ago
    Quoted from pinballkim:

    Does the telephone count as a WD? reference?

    Nope. But I do change into my red and blue leotard in there.

    #36 8 years ago
    Quoted from mr2xbass:

    Backgammon - lower left

    Is that an EM Joker Poker there?

    Quoted from Taxman:

    I'm gonna agree with a dartboard, but disagree on the location. It looks like the entrance to the adjacent room would allow for throwing some points. (however dangerous because of the possible cross traffic. On the bright side it would be an electronic board which uses plastic tips.)

    #41 8 years ago

    Lamp.

    Quoted from DefaultGen:

    I'm going to guess the cocktail is Night Moves, because per your post history you have both International Concepts games like NM more And surely no one their right mind owns THREE cocktail pins!

    So close but an incorrect guess. The Night Moves is in my office.
    You'll guess it next time but here's a hint picture.

    Caribbean Cruise.

    "deck of cards on cranes foot....."

    "On Deck" Em from 1940?

    or "Hit the Deck" Em from 1978?

    #45 8 years ago
    Quoted from Aurich:

    Caribbean Cruise.
    1786351-caribbean_cruise.jpg

    Yes. Aurich for the win with an assist from DefaultGen.

    DSCN1662.jpgDSCN1662.jpg

    DSCN1667.jpgDSCN1667.jpg

    #46 8 years ago

    more exact reference but yes, Caribbean Cruise

    #47 8 years ago

    Is that a Hobbit sculpture thingy, on the shelf below the glasses?

    #48 8 years ago

    the couch - ball lock mech from 'The Simpsons'

    Quoted from Taxman:

    A scratch built Prototype "Pinball Circus". Cleverly photographed so local Pinsiders do not hound him to play it.

    Quoted from Taxman:

    Tall like a dart board but seems too thick and can't be used where it is.

    That sounds like a Varkon to me.
