(Topic ID: 287829)
I signed up my usual two, but I've got a question for the showrunners: I've got two EMs that I'm working on right now that, if I get them done in time, I'd like to add to the show as well, but I might not have room to haul all four games in the van. If I have to remove a game from the list of what I'm bringing, how would I do that?

Just pm or email me and I'll get it done.

Quoted from uncivil_engineer:Does anyone know of any vendor offering show delivery of new games?
We're working on it but don't have any news to report
Cheddar already teased it but

Thanks guys, I’m hoping we slaughter 2019’s numbers with this show! The good news is I procured a covered 12x6 Uhaul trailer cheap for the weekend so I am good to roll the 9 and hopefully find a Project machine at the show as well! No wrapping machines in tarps to fight the rain this time around! Can’t believe we are already at 64 days and counting!
Just a reminder for all you Camp Silverball campers out there, confirmation emails went out yesterday and the clock is ticking. For all of you on the waiting list, there is hope and in the next few weeks we will know how many open sites we have and we can start working our way thru the wait list.
Also a reminder that pinball machines slotted for the campground don't need to be registered on our website as they are not games that the public will be able to easily find or play when they attend and we will not be managing their keys. These machines will not qualify for the extra perks associated with bringing machines. If you bring one for the camp, please consider bringing one for the event too!
Thanks!
Just confirming that vax cards and masks are no longer required?
Everyone can make their own choices of course but wanted to double check.
Quoted from Vino:Just confirming that vax cards and masks are no longer required?
Everyone can make their own choices of course but wanted to double check.
All we can state is our current official policy: "The Golden State Pinball Festival is required to follow all local and state guidelines related to COVID-19. Those requirements will be presented in our COVID policy closer to showtime when we are certain of the requirements during the show dates."
There is no point in setting it until the show is almost starting. The county and state dictate what we can do and they keep changing their policies on how to handle indoor events.
Quoted from fireball2:Wait... it still says 47 games! Boys! Let's giddy up!
Camp Silverball rez confirmed! Trailer reserved. Days off in the system. Getting games show ready.
Are we there yet?
Is Trident coming? Loved playing it at TFR. Alternate rule set and audio... Amazing!
Quoted from DavidCPA:Is Trident coming? Loved playing it at TFR. Alternate rule set and audio... Amazing!
No doubt, Rainbow Trout. Along with Speakeasy and my Pinball Pirated Mars Trek.
I know... Dick's new code and sounds for Trident are killer!
1 week later
Just signed up our games. If we have enough room we may add to this, but our booth set-up is pretty intense and consumes a lot of vehicle space. For now...
Middle Earth 2.0 (Running a whole new system that ThatOneDude put together with reimagined code and call-outs that are still being added)
Algar
TX Sector
Gladiators
Quoted from AD72:drypaint That means I need to bring Alien.
Mine is down. I have not had time to swap the box full of new parts Pinball Bros. Sent me. So, yeah! Bring it...

All good in the hood @hawkmoon. I am guessing you missed my email from a few weeks ago asking for confirmation you were still in. We already talked via email today and you are 100% confirmed.
And to @cheddar's point, we are strictly email. There are too many people and too many channels of communication otherwise.
Thanks!
FWIW, I have been trying for weeks to get existing campers to respond with confirmation that they still plan on using their Camp Silverball sites and I am finally down to 6 people who haven't responded, everyone else has confirmed or cancelled.
If you are one of those 6, you got 24 hours left. Otherwise I am going to move on to our incredibly long waitlist of excited campers.
A big congrats to the winner of our “Bring your games” contest fireball2 The wheel was spun and landed on 16 which is the Speakeasy he has signed up for the show! He’s going to get a silkscreened show poster of this years art by Urban Aztec!
Are game sign ups closed? NO! Should you still sign up your games? YES! We can’t have the best show yet without them. We’re at 110 games currently but plenty of room for more! And there are still benefits and perks to signing up two or more games like free admission and more! Head to that link I just won’t stop posting and sign up your games today!

C01B6024-5235-45DD-B9A5-1A70402CAE32 (resized).jpegI was pumping GSPF with several vendors at TPF.
Hope a few decide to trek out west sometime.
Just curious, what was the prior record for # of games at GSPF?
Quoted from jbovenzi:I just hope the Hot Dog doesn't go to fireball2 's head!
Too late. That happened years age, Daddio. 
Well, I was hoping to make the trip but my wife is having foot surgery so it looks like the countdown clock for me is reset to 404 days until my next GSPF.
Have fun, Gents. Gonna miss hanging out with my pinball buddies.

Thanks, Spencer. We have a casita that you guys are welcome to stay in anytime.
Volunteer sign ups are go!!!
We've got lots of jobs to fill to make this the best show ever. We have expanded tournaments, more space, more vendors and lots of games this year which means we need more help!
We can't do the show without our loading crews, so you all will be treated like royalty, get a weekend pass and the feeling you spent the weekend in pinball bliss.
We have spots for all levels of experience. Handy with repairs? Take a tech spot. Good at standing in place? Check peoples wrist bands!
A shift get's you in for the day, 2 shifts for a weekend pass! (Please make sure your shift qualifies, check the description of the shift.)
Already signed up? We love you! Can you take another? We can't love you more but we’ll try!
Again, we can’t thank you enough for your willingness to help out and volunteer. Every single aspect of the show from the electrical work to the person running the social media (me) is done for the love of pinball and our great community by volunteers like you.
Go to our website and click the link to volunteer!
