Quoted from Whysnow:

It was not worth playing at all.

I also "tried" to play it a couple times on location. Was always wondering if a good ball was going to be come a epic fail. Good balls were hard to come by. Always liked playing LOTR, this one left a bad taste in my mouth.

After 10+ games on Flintstones, I'm loving it. Loving the design, playfield layout, everything. I think it's time for me to take another crack at Creech!

Correct. My pinball ADHD is MN Market's gain. *I* still love Flintstones. With my son showing a new interest in my pins, I'm trying to keep him interested. Flintstones isn't really his type of game unfortunately. He gravitates to WW and ES currently, so I'm going to try and fine some similar games to lineup for him.

#1960 10 years ago

Me and the Mrs. will be in attendance. Looking forward to meeting you!

I'll be there.

#1963 10 years ago

I'll be there with my wife and daughter, and my buddy Brian (some may remember him as another MGC helper) will be there with his family.

You know I like winding you up about the revolving door. I think it's cool your getting your son involved or at least trying to keep him involved.

On another note. Not sure what your arrangements are this weekend or how Far Tom is from Lake Geneva, WI but if you need a cheap place to stay there is always room at my place.

I just require your first born. Or your ES.

Agian not sure how far I am but your always welcome.

The Jonogo Flow is not to be referred to as a revolving door. It is it's own entity.

#1966 10 years ago

Nice!

Quoted from RustyLizard:

Correct! Ive only owned the same game again a couple times. Games come in, games go out.

The flow continues, its a real thing

Thank you very much for the offer Chris! Much appreciated. However Ill be hanging onto my first born. ES has got AT LEAST another couple weeks..

#1968 10 years ago

Anyone coming from the west to Tom's party there will be a pinball warm-up, piss break, soda refill at my house from roughly 3:00-4:30. I am a little SW of Wausau and if you are on Hwy 29 it won't add any mileage to your trip.

#1969 10 years ago

For all the MN and WI guys and gals, I started a thread for Pinball on a Stick that starts again at the MN State Fair this Thursday for 12 days. Hopefully everyone local can stop in and support this great attraction so it can be even bigger and better next year and hopefully get more and more people into pinball.

#1970 10 years ago

Anyone have any new glass for sale in the twin cities?

#1971 10 years ago

I bought one about 3 weeks ago and it was $40.

#1972 10 years ago

Yeah, Just wondering if any were local. I can always order.

#1973 10 years ago

No, this was local. Did you call Al at Pinball Warehouse?

#1974 10 years ago
Quoted from policano:

JR usually has some for sale every now and then ... let him know and he can contact you once he gets another batch in.

#1975 10 years ago

Just a reminder for everyone, Pinball on a Stick starts this Thursday at the fair and things are shaping up nicely. Check out a couple pics below.

Also, the Mortimer's monthly tournament is this Sunday at 6:00 at Mortimer's. As always 200% prize payout and after the fair, Attack From Mars (w/ Color DMD) and Addams Family will be joining the lineup.

Typical excuse.

#1980 10 years ago

Oh, can't wait to play Attack from Mars at Mort's.

Question about the X-Men at Mortimer's: Was Wolverine always cracked up or did that just recently happen?

#1981 10 years ago

That's the original Wolverine that I just put back on temporarily until I receive a replacement (#3) from Stern. The last Wolverine (#2) broke in his back and I could not repair him. Thanks for playing!

#1990 10 years ago

I'm thinking of trading my Indy (Williams) The PF is beautiful with CoinTaker LEDs, ColorDMD, Invissaglass, and has CAB fad on the sides like most do. Front looks good. Plays beautifully! Looking to trade for 1 or 2 90+ year game(s). If you have anything, please hit me up.

Would be open to offers.
My wish list:
Transformers
ACDC
Metallica Pro

#1991 10 years ago

Why waste all that money on beer when you could waste it on a pin.
