    Quoted from captainBR:

    Get ready for Black Rose machines to skyrocket in price when this full mod kit comes out.
    [quoted image]

    Ahhhhhhhhh!!!! THIS IS EXCITING!!! I have long hoped that Black Rose would get redone rules. I think the playfield is a lot of fun.

    Please someone add an autoplunger to Premier games and redo all of those next

    I played it and I just can’t understand building a new custom coded game, bringing it to TPF, and then having flippers so weak you can’t make Black Rose’s usually easy ramps. Could only get up them on the best of tries. The ball could juuuust make it to the broadside saucer at the top. I also walked by it for an entire day before realizing it was updated. I noticed the LCD and did a double-take.

    Just imagine how crowded that place would be if people smelled good/decent.

    Thanks to everyone for posting pics and stuff. Those of us who were not able to attend really appreciate it.

    It was great to play these beautifully restored woodrails. Great games.

    Couldn’t agree more. PWM flippers, right? Why? Just….why?

    I was there from beginning to end. The BO complaints are exaggerated. Farts, yeah, but for the most part I didn't think people were funky.

    But LOL at Californians complaining about Texas roads.

    Noticeably a lot more pets this year.
    Don’t mind the pets, owners were respectful, just need to be prepared with more allergy meds next time. Happy I wasn’t staying at the hotel.

    Not gonna be a popular opinion, but leave your pets at home. Unless your dog can hit the Gem shot on Tron, I don't wanna see it at a pinball show.

    We have pets and love them, but would NEVER take them to the store (unless it was like Petco, etc where that's encouraged), or a show, or an appointment.

    I have no idea why places like Target and Walmart are no longer enforcing their "no pets" rules. I was in target a few days ago and one took a dump in an aisle and the owner just walked off.

    Ill double down on that, some people have pet allergies and prob many weirdos have pet phobias. Unbelievable some even bring children lol

    Yeah, I love my dogs but....they ain't coming to a pinball show with me.

    I did pick up some sort of crud from the event but people are def over exaggerating about body odor smells. I may have smelled a couple people but was very far and few between.

    I have already reserved a booth for 2024 TPF, I will be selling Boost Oxygen cans. These are for emergencies in case somebody “drops ass” in front of you while you’re waiting in line to play a hot machine and don’t wanna lose your spot in line but also don’t want to breath ass! Make sure to come by and see me I’ll be offering a 10% discount to all Pinsiders.

    As nice at it is, why do most of all toppers created have to be almost all the same images that are in the playfield or back glass and not something completely different with this creativity? Don’t get it.

    I didn’t need oxygen. I needed something to get the nasty taste out of my mouth.

    Luckily, it was only a couple of clouds I walked into. And somehow I avoided all the BO.

    People abusing the "service animal" loophole. If you say your pet is a "service animal" no one is allowed to question you on it.

    Someone said my Tron topper didn’t match the game because it didn’t look like the backglass, so you’ll never make everyone happy.

    I just want to see toppers not use the logo that is literally inches below it already.

    Not strictly true. They CAN, but enforcement is spotty. United just rejected someone's peacock that was an "emotional support" animal, and snakes, ferrets, etc are automatically disqualified.

    I was disappointed with the pets with “Service Dog” patches on their harnesses that were clearly not service dogs, but pets.

    It’s hard enough for people with true service dogs to bring their animals everywhere, but now the people with their pets allowing everyone to pet and play with and show them off are making it harder for true working dogs. Real service animals are not to be pet or played with while on duty as they have work they are doing. They are acutely tuned in to their human and partner doing their job. Whether it’s leading their owner or detecting things like seizures or diabetic blood sugar drops, they are truly amazing service animals.

    Sorry long OT:
    But I don’t want to be one of “those guys”
    The Service dog exemption is tuff & does get abused, I know people who have them for emotional support, but do they need them in a grocery store? The other thing that is difficult about it is that the person with a legit service dog doesn’t always have an obviously disability. In my case I have severe epilepsy among other things. I rarely leave the house without my wife so there is no need for me to take my dog into stores & restaurants, but I walk my dog every day alone. I carry a pill box with emergency medication in my pocket but if I go down someone may not want to dig thru my pockets. My Dog Noah who I rescued 6 years ago from a very abusive home carry’s emergency medication and detailed instructions about what to do if someone finds me in his vest. He never leaves my side on leash or off. Sometimes people look at me and my dog and give me that look like I’m one of those guys with a fake service dog and I think man if they only knew that me and that little dog have been to hell and back over the last 4 years!

    I actually don’t mind people bringing pets and enjoy dogs quite a bit, but I was just a bit dissapointent to see the service dog patch used inappropriately.
