    Not sure if I can make it this year due to the change of date. May is a nightmare for our family. Got hit with Jury summons this month, too, to go along with all the birthdays, recitals, end of schoolyear stuff that May always brings. Love supporting the show and I hope its moved back to June next year.

    Quoted from Leeb18509:

    It's a 2 year contract, so it will be Memorial day weekend next year too.

    I think I'll actually be able to make it down this year unless jury duty hoses me. Planning on bringing 4 games, and will have my 1979 Stern "Magic" and Williams PinBot up for trade or possibly sale. Looking for another DMD game or possibly System 11 era Williams/Data East in trade.

    Quoted from resipsa:

    Are techs available at the show to help fix games? Willing to bring a couple games but one has a occasional random restart issue that I've been unable to figure out (about once every 5 games or so). Not trying to scam free admission for putting a broken game on the floor, but would love to use this as a opportunity to get this fixed as I've been sitting on it forever....
    I always enjoy the show and considering I'm just down the road, I feel guilty not helping contribute any pins

    Bringing a game with known game-ending issues is not a good idea, especially in a show with tight space, tons of people and line voltage concerns. I'd suggest you bring a different game or just take the half-price admission for bringing one game. It could need a rebuilt power supply or something well beyond the scope of what general maintenance repairs people are doing at the show.

    Quoted from GamesGuy5280:

    I hope it's a great show, I hope to meet and have a game or two with some great pinsiders!
    I am, as always, looking for the rare and hard to find games. I am definitely interested if someone has decided to move on from theirs or has a lead to a collector who is. Yes, I know it's a long shot, but like to get the word out in case the time is right.
    Currently my pin want list includes:
    Rat Race
    Rotation
    Varkon
    A. G. Soccer-ball
    Catacomb
    hercules (if space allows
    Ice Cold Beer or Zeke's Peak
    On the arcade side:
    Any Taito cabaret
    Crazy Climber deluxe cab
    Lunar Lander
    Front Line
    Crazy Climber II
    Boot Hill
    Feel free to give me a shout to discuss any of these, or similar titles.

    Contact AZTARAC about his Lunar Lander. He posted a photo above.

    The new venue was great and the line voltages and air conditioning weren't an issue like prior years. My machines were still shooting snappy and reliably all weekend. I used to wax every single day to keep the ball moving fast enough on those old Williams games but everything was keeping up nicely. Only issue I had all weekend on my games was a drop target plate finger snapped on PinBot, but thats an oddball I couldn't have prepared for. Got a new one to install. A lot more space to move around and had a great seminar room. I'm not a tournament guy but the tourney folks said that area was far better than prior years as well. Got a bunch of great deals on old parts at the swap meet and at Dave's table, plus dropped some good coinage on Comet products.
