Who's got the best line-up? Would love to participate in a mini-meet. I've only got the two pins so far - Dirty Harry and Mousin' Around! Love playing the Mousin' Around! because of the challenge - it is set to 3 balls and it is not always easy to keep the ball in play. To get a high score you have to have two good plays in the one game, it is very difficult to get a great score on just the one. Will have to get your advice on the playfield at some point, Nino, as I am interested in cleaning it up eventually.

Are we going to try and organise a mini-meet? Personally I would love to attend a regular pinnie event, but other than Pinball Faith (Bumper) I never hear of any meets/events. It would be great to meet other like-minded people, play some pinnies and talk rubbish once a month or so. The last "meet" I went to was at Mark C's back in June '08, it's been too long between drinks!

Matt - I talked to Mark about this no too long ago. There will be another meet - that's for sure. There were plans for last November, but to put it simply, there were not enough games set up in the showroom at Childs.

There should be two meets this year.. But it all depends on the amount of machines that are on the floor and ready for to play.

I'll have another chat to Mark and see when he thinks we can have one.


I hope you can talk Mark into this Nino... would be a great venue for us Melbournites to meet up and play and talk pinball!


Mate - Won't be too hard, methinks... He wanted to do one late last year. Tell you what - next time you are over there - Start the ball rolling !

Lets see if he reads all his "unread" posts...  %.%


I think a "Northern mini meet" would be a great idea.. There are a few great collectors that I've met up here !
