Cool, So basically it is on the owner to get that dialed in before the event starts. I will try the replay level on Spy Hunter and rig my EM to be free as well.

Hey Hawkmoon, check with @fattrain. He usually works with Randy from ColorDMD. I have not heard of an official line up yet.
Quoted from jellikit:I know that there is a separate thread for this and it has been posted to the PAGG Facebook page, but want to do my best to make sure anyone going to the show who might be interested in a Spirit of Steve Charland print or poster saw this as I know with all the activity on Pinside that threads can get buried. There are two versions as seen below, a 20" x 30" poster and a 8" x 12" print seen with a 8.5" x 11" piece of white paper to show scale. If interested, please complete the Google Form below to assist me in regards to quantities and details:

If you are going to PAGG but would like your order sent, please just indicate that on the form. All proceeds from sales will go to the Charland family. Thank you for your interest and feel free to contact me with any questions you may have.
Sincerely,
Brad Czernik (CARGPB #22)
Quoted from practicalsteve:Thanks again for making these
I am happy to do what I can for Steve's family and in his memory. Your support has been great and appreciated. I look forward to shaking your hand in just over a month.

Quoted from Silver_Bullet:Midway Race-Way - Working, needs to be shopped out. Flaking in red areas of backglass. $2500
This is the one that is most tempting to me.
How about you donate it to the Pacific Pinball Museum
and use it as a tax write off
and be immortalized forever (with a commemorative donors plaque.)
Call me paranoid but didn't want to go open air for security sake and road hazards (flying debris).
I have the covered 5x8 currently reserved that Eric mentioned. It was $100 for Thursday through Monday with their added trailer insurance.
Yeah, actually folded on their backs I could fit 3 more if anyone between Visalia and Dixon wants.
I have big opinions about moving pins on legs. Not a fan at all, seen the damage it can do. One big bump with head folded down, even if shrink wrapped or ratched...dented side rails and broken glass..
The list is long against moving with legs. We all have our own experiences and comfort level. I won't judge or criticize.
Im also driving 8 hours north, long haul, balls removed and coin door up, best for me.
yeah, it was a 45 minute drive and with ratcheting straps and high wall trailer sides, it was super secure. Pins get moved on their feet all the time in box trucks and trailers in my experience. I get the dangers though, and the longer you are on the road, the more the danger increases.
I am with Eric, I don't judge or criticize...unless you are hauling a pin on its legs in a back of a regular pickup...with the head up 
"Never underestimate people's willingness and illegality of hauling coin operated equipment via any means possible."

Good news, the fine folks at Best Western in Dixon have just added four additional rooms to the group. Once these are gone, there will be no more discounted rooms left. When you call to make your reservations, just ask for the Pin-a-Go-Go rate.
See ya in 37 days!
Quoted from uncivil_engineer:Ughh.. I really want to bring my NGG, but I don't think I can squeeze that in the back of my suburban with my BK, and not ding up the cabinets.
Hope you figur a way I really would love to play it!

They were out of the rooms when I booked but they called me back an honored it, so after the four rooms are gone maybe if you ask real nice

I can get 2 in my pilot if I remove the head on one. The body goes across and then a pin goes in straight. Then the head goes next to the pin.
Back in the day I could fit two Ballys in a 95 ford escort hatchback. Frontier and Playboy... picked em up as a pair. Fun times lol
Quoted from Cheddar:I can get 2 in my pilot if I remove the head on one. The body goes across and then a pin goes in straight. Then the head goes next to the pin.
Well the head has to come off of BK anyway to move it. I may break out the measuring tape and see if I can make it work. I put a lot of work into the BK cabinet, and I really don't want to mess it up.

Wrap with moving blankets (about $5.00 per bag at harbor freight) then wrap with plastic wrap to hold it together (about $15.00 at uhaul for a massive roll that will last many pinball moves).... thats my plan at least.
Quoted from hawkmoon:C U there Mercat,Thurs.or Fri.??
Looking forward to it! We are heading out Thursday night, stopping for the night along the way and arriving Friday morning.

Yup. Houdini will be there. Got to catch up on your reading hawk. See you there.
We've booked a room for Friday night and will be participating in Friday and Saturday's festivities. After this coming week; before dads memorial on Saturday we should have an idea of what games of dads will be at pin-a-go-go to let the organizers know to arrange transportation. We are hoping to have a list of games for sale at least a week prior. Thank you to everyone who has expressed interest in owning part of my dads collection and to everyone who has reached out to help.
Quoted from Blownfuse_Spawn:Thank you to everyone who has expressed inference in owning part of my dads collection and to everyone who has reached out to help.
I hope you keep some to always remember him by.
Blownfuse_Spawn, I will be helping with the load from your house to Pin-A-Go-Go. I'm just the muscle for the loads/unloads and will leave it to Cliffy for the details. Being a Castro Valley guy makes it easier for me.
Happy to help preserve the memories and help your family.
jbovenzi"when will you be coming??I'll be there Thurs.to help too!!Soulrider911<will be looking for ya!!! get your badge,and,Pinside T-Shirt.don't hide!!! C U there!!!
Quoted from Soulrider911:Really excited to attend this! Will be my first pinball event
picked a great one for your first!
Thanks for asking about me coming. I sure hope so. I have a heart procedure to be scheduled soon, but I am sort of stuck in medical billing delays. It's been delayed twice, and when it happens I have to go. I hope to attend atleast one day this year. I should be there on the Saturday, regardless of how long I can stay. So I hope yes I can be there on Saturday. Next year when I am out of the woods I will need to attend multiple days.
