Quoted from GreenMachine19:I’m having a good time but I will say. Be prepared to spend a lot of time waiting if you are trying to play a new game. This place is packed. The doors opened at 10. This was PF and SD. At 10:00:01. I played PF once after waiting almost an hour. Played SD once after waiting for over 40 minutes. Maybe it’s just my poor luck picking the wrong lines but Jesus it’s mobbed. I know the it’s good for pinball and everything but damn.

Sheesh it sounds like the lines you would expect for the E Ticket rides at Disneyland!
Quoted from TheMatterhorn:if someone drops ass and it’s a smelly bomb…do you stay in line or wait it out?
Getting knocked around, shoved and walking into smelly farts is not what we expected for our first time.
Can somebody find Ryan from CGC and ask him if they still plan on running the batch of MMR they said they were going to run this year.
Quoted from play_pinball:Man, yesterday I was waiting for a few minutes behind a guy on Celts when he ended the game, didn’t look around, and started another game. I tapped him on the shoulder to explain I was waiting in line and he absolutely went nuclear on me. Yelling he only got to play one game. Then flipped me off and yelled “you know what FUCK YOU!”
I just stood there confounded and then played my game with my eyes pulling left and right to make sure I didn’t get shivved.
Sheesh! Maybe next year they can designate a time out area with on staff anger management counselors to deal with babies who get mad when they have to share other people’s toys.
Quoted from titanpenguin:BO and fart clouds were definitely a thing on TPF Fungi Friday.
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.

Quoted from Spunky1562: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!
Quoted from Aurich:You can uh, crop photos on your iPad, or copy and paste them, you don't need to screenshot your whole browser.

Quoted from Spitfiren8:Who else is happy centerflank is back. Pinside is just more fun now
Yea it’s good to have him back for sure! The word on the street was that he was a real bastard to work for when he was running Encom for the last few years, I’m glad he retired and came back to hang out with us little people.
Quoted from wcbrandes:Since the thread has been hijacked, just decided to update the title......carry on!
