Ok here are a few pics from the State Tourney. I am sure there are more out there. Long fun day, My skill on EM's went up though! Thanks to Tom for hosting, what a collection!!!!! Thanks to Jon and Tully for running it and all the other volunteers that helped out. The last picture is toward the end of the night when just a few of us were left...

Cnv0267.jpgQuoted from TomGWI:When did Nordman show up? Cool!
That was the "real" party .
Quoted from Lame33:I wish their had been an easier way to watch the contestants. Projected video from webcams mounted on the pins or mirrors suspended from the ceiling, but I guess pinball is not really a spectator sport.
Those are good ideas - PAPA has shown pinball is a great spectator sport when you have cameras on the game. Expensive and tricky to implement though, unless we know people willing to lend cameras or lend/install large mirrors. Sometimes you need to get special antiglare playfield glass if the lighting causes glare, which is *really* pricey at a couple hundred dollars per sheet.
I think the easiest way would be to run a Kickstarter to raise the money for it, or if someone is willing to donate the $500-$1000 per machine it would cost to build the camera mount and buy a rudimentary camera.
Quoted from trilogybeer:That was the "real" party .
Oh I see. As soon as I leave that's when all the dancing girls showed up. 
Quoted from TomGWI:dancing girls showed up.
Those pictures I cannot post on here!

You have to have Hilton on speed dial if you hope to get those deals.

Did you forget 
my Daytona 500/Pinball Party, Feb. 23rd, 11am till ???....not real late though, we have to get up for work in the morning. Pinball and arcade games from 11 till about 12:30 when the race starts, on 2 big screens, and after the race they go back on again. BYOB and I'll have Sloppy Joes and would appreciate it if people brought a little something to share.
Anyone have a Getaway they want to sell? I'm looking for one that I can save shipping costs on and pick-up myself.

Quoted from RustyLizard:I sold a game that needs to go to Rhode Island if you find a good way.
Dang....how many can I fit in my work van. 
Quoted from billsfanmd:It's a vid from Phetishboy. Looking to get it as close to md as possible
The Moon Patrol. Very nice.
I might be in the buying mood after bonus/tax season ... anyone selling a NBAFB, Star Trek Pro, Metallica Pro, Iron Man, World Poker Tour, MSF, or Skateball?
If so, please understand that I have not looked at pin prices for about 6 months, so I might need to do some research. 
I'll be at MGC if that makes arrangements easier.
Quoted from Whysnow:Whatever happened to that SST tony?
I need to try that out at some point
Sold to a non-pinhead in southern MN. Bought as a gift for his family.
I had a good run with that SST.
I want to trade my WCS94, let me know what you got. Prefer Local, even up or trade down + cash. Can deliver within an hr or two, if needed. Wantlist is current, but will consider any pin. Send PM for quickest reply.
Game is in nice shape. Plays great, I'd call it a very nice players game. Cab is good, PF is clean with very little or no wear, slight insert lifting on a couple, new soccer ball, full CT or eq LEDs in GI/PF. New Cherry DMD, new gold legs, new coin door. Plunger could use a new sleeve on it, but works as is. Extra plastics and manual included, Pics upon request. Quite a few pinsiders have seen/played this game.

Would love another WCS, but the timing isn't right unfortunately. I don't have anything to trade at the moment.
