Quoted from dannunz:This should wake up the general public. It just got real! Two of these went up today.
thats awesome man. I am glad we will be coming this year. I will buy you another shot of tequila 
Quoted from beelzeboob:No. F YOU. And I'll thank you to henceforth refer to me as Captain Romance. And you're welcome.
I will admit it surprised me when you.... Thanks for the lovely time. I owe you "one" Captain.
Quoted from dannunz:FINANCE A PINBALL MACHINE AT PINTASTIC!
Its never been done before and now it is a reality. One of our biggest sponsors Webster First F.C.U will be on site financing your pinball machine purchases direct from vendors.
pretty cool man. love your approach to your show. impressive...
Quoted from beelzeboob:Don't get too excited. It's an underwhelming experience, to say the least.
don't make me post those pictures...
Quoted from OLDPINGUY:Trying to make it !!!
Wife too, Maybe the dog and a Florida gator for the lake.

Quoted from OLDPINGUY:Amazing Work! Will you be bringing this to Pintastic?
(Sorry, now that I see my quote rendered much earlier than the gator event here)
i was considering it but I don't want all the disrespectful monkeys slobbering all over it and beating the crap out of it. I was pretty amazed at the way some of these people treated other peoples machines. way too much work into this one
Quoted from dannunz:We can put the boob standing guard to make sure no one abuses your machine.
tough call. do I want it beat up or do I want it to smell like ass?
is anyone selling stuff on this thread? I am trying to gauge interest on a working project:centaur. and ... no it's not the one I just finished
Quoted from Irishbastard:It was mentioned that it is "frowned upon"....which is stupid if your: looking for parts, selling parts, selling projects... but, whatever....
well someone must know how to connect the frowned upon with the grinned upon cuz there's plenty of people looking to buy and sell. Gabe what do you say? Connect the dots for me please.
Quoted from dannunz:Force flow has started a thread. In a perfect world we would want all the games to be put in free play. We are offering huge incentives to do so. But I understand that Pintastic is a meeting point and games change hands before the show.
If you sell a game before the show please consider still putting it in free play for the weekend. Remember with out a good selection of games the show can not exist and flourish. Thanks everyone! Gabe
I would consider bringing it for freeplay but it would need to be sold first because I only have room for 1 on the moped. its also got the original mpu which has no freeplay setting. I think i could set the free game limits low so it just gives credit as soon as you hit 10k or something. I'll have to monkey with it.
Quoted from dannunz:Project Pinball will be back for Pintastic 2016!
We loved working with Dan last year and putting a beautiful WOZ into Mass General. Project Pinball will be back at the show this year spreading the love. They will be drawing a raffle winner for one of these raffles https://go.rallyup.com/9fad63 so go So lets show them we love Project Pinball and buy a ticket.

Quoted from beelzeboob:With only 4 days left until Pintastic, I just want to wish my good friend Gabe lots of luck for a smoothly run and incredibly successful show. I know you put all your heart, soul, and love into this show over the past year, and I hope you're happy with everything by the time Sunday rolls around. As you know, I'm at your disposal if you need anything.
Best of luck, brother...and I look forward to chatting with you on the other side of the show when you get your sanity back.

This was our fourth show. We really only had two complaints and they were not even about the show. Our room was very musty smelling and the bar was missing a bartender 2 of the 3 times we tried to get a drink. That's it. Some things I noticed that really made it awesome:
1. incredibly well organized with tons of different stuff to do/buy. Gabes attention to every detail was outstanding
2. having it at the hotel was fantastic for many reasons
3. having free play open til 2am? insane!!!!
4. the percentage of games that were set up fast with strong flippers and operational was huge compared to what we have seen. we got to play WAY more games even though there weren't nearly as many as other shows. Overall the quality of the games was superior
5. the omelette I had was the best ever
6. beelzeboob introduced me to a bunch more people. Thanks Randy!
7. met trudeau and ritchie. awesome!
8. courteous staff at the hotel
9. teddy g's was really good
10. it did not feel congested with regards to getting to playing all the different games
11. the location was super easy to get to even though we are 5.5 hours away
12. after party food was fantastic
the only regret i had was that we came home empty handed. i somewhat attribute that to the stringent policy on taking free play games out early but I totally respect the need to have that. next year I will try to stay the extra day as we had to leave sat am.
Quoted from mainelycoasters:Hmmm That could be interesting if we can have a few others in that category as well.
i've got a couple of those.
Quoted from dannunz:The hotel has another 100 rooms available on Friday night. I just did not block them off because I don't know how to keep people from booking els were. Hotel selling out is not the issue.
right. we had a problem with the air and bedding arrangement in our first room and moved us immediately. space was not an issue
Quoted from Butch2099:Show is great. Hotel rooms were definitely the downside of the weekend. I thought the bed was ok but the room smell bothered me. Really just slept there and showered. But unless there are renovations made I'll stay elsewhere when I come to the show.
There has to be some buying power in a group like ours. I stayed Thursday Friday and Saturday. My hotel bill was almost $350. I don't mind spending on quality, but honestly, that was a $50 - $75 a night hotel at best.
they should fill that pool in. that would likley reduce or eliminate the mold/must problem. it would also be an awesome place to set up a bunch of pins
Quoted from LTG:You still have the lake across the street. Eliminate the pool might not help.
LTG : )
did you look up at the ceiling in the pool area? Indoor pools are always problematic especially with nice absorbent amenities.
Quoted from dannunz:Come on man it's a freash water lake.
I beleive the correct spelling is... phresh
