Gerry, I don't think this thread is meant to complain about your services, or the guy overseas, it's merely to let anyone go into this with their eyes wide open and know what to expect. I appreciate threads like these, I know that these games are beyond my skill, so I will stick with local...

yeah, i agree, skipped weeks would guarantee BIG turnouts for the remaining weeks. Not exactly the goal. I've gotten into the Monday's thing myself. That was the best advice given, just make it part of your schedule and plan to be there. There will never be a "perfect" day of the week, so...

The far off locations is what stopped me from coming till recently. Now that I'm a part of it it I make the effort, but it was hard for me to get started. And there is such a balancing act, between being an open club, and the realities that the league is hosted in people's homes. How could the...

I also bought this one:

Just got my neon sign today!! It'll go in my game room, but I think I'll put it by the window any time I have people over.

Well, companies are forced to defend their IP or else it effectively becomes public domain and they can't do anything about it down the road, say when someone is making a complete replica machine.

Their stance seems fair: do whatever you want to your own machine just don't sell or distribute Williams IP. I think the cactus canyon guy is the one who crossed the line and they don't want more of that although it seems like one might be able to negotiate a deal.

Thanks, everybody, for the tips. I'm going to keep doing what I'm doing and fix stuff as it needs it. When I move to my next house I'll have more room and I'll just jump in and take on a project. It will be in addition to my lineup of good working pins so it won't be a big deal if its in...

Re: TRON 1.74 is out! -- Fingers crossed for XM/TF Owners : holy shit. This is like the best xmas ever for me since I have both avengers and tron. sorry to the red headed step child.

I have 2 kids, but I work from home. Sounds like that's not a solution for you.

Installed it last night. Looking good. Overall it just gives the game some nice polish.

I have started to collect a bunch of links for repair resources, including the $20 pinball ninja. I had not heard of those top videos, i will check them out. Is there a soldering station that everyone uses?

This is a spin-off from some discussion in the container thread about how how much you've learned about fixing pinball machines, and how long did it take you to learn what you know? In the context of a container pin, there is no way I could personally get in on one of those at this time. I've...

I think most dudes would be ok pissing behind a tree so you're probably alright :-).

Re: february list 198 pinballs !! I personally can handle swapping a light, cleaning, bending a switch, etc, but these machines seem to need more work than I'd be able to put into them. I'm not being negative about these deals, I just wanted to give the view from someone who isn't very...

I think the whole thing of money came out because of how Hobbit was played out. Jack went against what he has said in the past, which was that order forms would be sent out to WOZ customers with their games. The story about how he HAD to have Hobbit announced for the movie is dubious, and even...

Well, and at least its 95% dudes so no one will have an issue. I rented porapotty's years ago, and the same company supplied hand washing stations. They had a foot pump, people can wash their hands and it collects the grey water and they take it away. Something to remember when the time comes.

You are expecting a lot of visitors at times, what would the washroom situation be?

I would agree. Someone should rip and re-post to youtube for posterity.

Hard to say, but the real value for the club is to use it to promote on the web page, for years to come.
