I am really sorry everyone. I severely underestimated the amount of pinsiders that would be here, I thought 50 ID badges would be more than enough, and now they are all gone. Sorry if you did not get one

Good problem to have! I saved you the heartache by one by not coming this year.
I wonder if there really are 50 Pinsiders there already or if people just thought it'd be a good idea if everyone had nametags. (Kinda like CAX)
Been at the show all day! What a blast ! Looks to be as good as last year. Sold a nice Tales from the Crypt, and a nice White Water. Still have a BK2 for sale.
It was nice meeting a lot of you guys today.
Happy flipping,
Rob
Great show again this year and thanks for the pinside badge! Taking a dinner break and heading back over
There were 2 games that I really liked playing today. Spirt and Orbitor. Thanks to whomever that brought these pinballs to the show. I know that Orbitor doesn't get much love, but I really enjoyed playing it. Tomorrow I'll be plying more of these and others. Great place to be
the 1st day was a blast. so cool to see old friends and meet new ones . mof, it was great to finely meet you.
the best part of the day was seeing my dad have fun. the man who introduced me to pinball. he is 70 now and made it through most of the day. now he wants an acdc and star trek.
oh, don't forget. pinside meet up at 3 pm Saturday. be at sparkys bbq at the rv area. we need to get a group pic,
Orbitor was a cool game I've never played before until today. I also had a lot of fun playing Stargate and Royal Rumble. Had a great first trip to PAGG today!
Another crazy day..Went from too many spaces to no room at all by 10 am.Thanks Steve I got my pinsider badge. Some pretty good pins sold. No Rudy for me it appears.See you rockin people tomorrow for some rad photo ops,bbq and one flippin good time.
Great meeting a few of yall today! Going to grab some more beers and hanging with some other peeps now - will be uploading pix to the usual mega gallery here: http://store.orangephotography.com/p328863282
The spirit line is very impressive. I enjoyed trying each of the 7 games to see which setup I liked the best.
Thanks to those that called or texted me when something went wrong with the games I brought. Ill be bringing a sharpie and tagging all my cards to say if something goes wrong text me. It helps to get the heads up.
Also, pinball hospital volunteers, you did great today. Really top notch show. I havent been in 4 or 5 years and its a completely new and exciting ahow.
Excited for the flea market and BBQ,tomorrow.
AJP, were you able to get multiball started? I played three different machines and had never played Spirit before but damn it's pretty fun! Didn't get more than two balls locked though :-/
I had a great time today -- mostly chatting with pinheads. I did squeeze in an hour or two of pinball, and put up a good score on High Speed of 8mil. End of day it was still there (some kind of miracle.)
Great to finally meet Kerry R, Mr. Gone, Pin Willie, and see many familiar faces.
Games that surprised me today were:
WCS94 (best in show)
Firepower (greywolf's) (always a contender for best in show) -- I got my first ever multi-ball in Firepower, and the TILT went off on me for no reason at all, I was so pissed. You gotta adjust that brother!
and I was surprised by how well the ball flow matches the theme of Rollergames -- it's not a theme for me, but it still impressed me.
I was glad to see Future Spa for the first time, and it's a neat game.
It was a treat to finally see an Algar.
I was overjoyed to see blownfuse's face when the 7th Spirit showed up at 9:30pm. He's the Energizer bunny. Finally got all 7 Spirits in a row as promised. Quite an epic showing. I hope you picked up the Spirit T-Shirt to commemorate history being made there...
Great day. If it weren't for the killer allergies I had in Dixon today, I'd be back for both weekend days, no doubt...
Glad to be breathing through my nostrils once again in SF. =)

Quoted from genex:AJP, were you able to get multiball started? I played three different machines and had never played Spirit before but damn it's pretty fun! Didn't get more than two balls locked though :-/
I never got all three balls captured for 3 ball multiball. But, I did get quite a few locks inder the center ramp to start two ball multiball. In fact on ball I got multiball 3 times. I believe you light lock for that by dropping the three drop targets with the small flipper and hitting that tight loop in the middle. I could be totally mistaken though. Really fun and elaborate ball flow design. Makes since from who designed it though.
Had a great first day today once again at PAGG, Met some great pinsiders that I had not met in person and of course Hung out with the regular Ones Fattrain, Pdxmonkey etc. I will have my Acejedi shirt on tomorrow and of course my Badge, If ya see me come over and say hi, see everyone tomorrow.
Joe(acejedi)

[attachment=1657891,]Anybody get a count of the number of pins up and playing at the show so far,
and final game list.
keep us posted on the flea market, (photos)
hope somebody gets some good deals.
cheers
With Spirit I find that there are many rewarding/challenging shots. 1. Right main flipper to the top left corner lock. 2. Left main flipper to the top right upper playfield ramp to hit the double targets on the top right corner (could it be done with a back hand right?)
Tons of awesome vendors too. Twisted pins, baa, niftyled, CPR, and a good stash of ramps from pinball inc!
I saw a couple of familiar faces yesterday, and was introduced briefly to one pinsider. I will be the big guy wearing a Superman T-shirt today. Well, based on yesterday, I may be one of the big guys wearing a Superman t-shirt. lol I may take another trip to Sac today to play Metallica at a bar. If anyone wants to tag along, let me know.

Wonder if they ditched the hrc or the cftbl to put it in?

Ya maybe he will respond to your calls finally
Quoted from Xscrapiron:Adam I noticed the GI out in W?D that was about all I saw. When we were loading in some games on the side door I noticed a 7 year old boy playing sexy girl. I should have got a picture it was to damn funny. The birds n bees talk via pinball
GI is back up on who dunnit along with the backglass GI that wasnt up the whole show. I had a pretty hacked up board in the game and didnt think that having the game played all day was going to overheat the traces enough to kill the lighting. It got taken to the hospital and fixed up late last night. Even got the nasty hacks taken off the boards.
Damn, I'm out. Well how late does the show go tonight? Maybe I can drive over after 8pm tonight.
If a sac guy sees a high speed for sale shoot ne a pm on here.
Quoted from Xscrapiron:Ya maybe he will respond to your calls finally
Doubt it. Did you get my text about the thumb locks?
Had one of my dogs have a freak accident this week and it ended up killing my shot at going to PAGG. Don't even care much about missing playing pinball just lame I don't get to hang with pinsiders. Next year I guess, fave fun everyone.
Quoted from mof:Can someone take a pic of the High Speed pagg-card in the smaller hall?
I want to contact the owner and let him know how much I appreciate him setting up such a great example of HS.
thanks!

I'm on it. I will have it for you shortly.
Dang! I didn't get a name tag. If you see me say hello.
The "7th" Spirit is mine, thanks for all the kind words. I love that thing and was nervous as hell about bringing it. I'm glad I did! Steve blownfuse has been a great Spirit guide . It was his Spirit I played at a show years ago that started me on the hunt for my own.
Oooh Steve pinsane I love that pic!
Quoted from mrgone:I'm on it. I will have it for you shortly.
Thanks
Mof
I wonder who GC is on there today?

I saw that too. And within seconds I saw one of the PAGG guys pull him off and out an "18 and over" sign on the game.
Another great day at PINAGOGO!!!!! YEAH
I HAVE A BLACK KNIGHT 2000 for sale in the main building right near Pin Willie's White water that is also for sale.I am open to offers and trades at the show.
