Well summer is here and it is roughly a year since my last meet. The last one seemed to go well so I figure why not do it again.

Yes, yes but where can I get my grog?
There is a drive through bottle shop 4 minutes away from my home.
Cursed's house rules
- I want to ask if you say you will attend, please do show up. We will be buying snags, hamburgers and drink based on numbers.
- As most would know I am fond of my carpet so No food or drink in the game room itself (everywhere else is ok though)
- If you see something wrong on any of my games let me know straight away, please don't just keep playing.
- No rowdy behaviour
- This is a non-smoking house so smokers will have to smoke outside, I will provide a tin for your butts.
- If you start a game, finish it. (pinched that one from Ryan)
Please post in this thread or PM me if you wish to attend.
Feel free to ask any questions or discuss any suggestions for the day.
Think that’s it for now. () Hope to see you all again and have an even better meet!

Michael, late scratching, Mrs God will stick her head in for a minute, then head home to continue packing. So it looks like you'll be stuck with me. Hope she'll come back to pick me up otherwise you're stuck with me for good @.@ I better see what she did with the house title before I attend and check for any one way tickets to the Bahamas <..>

Righto, pics please or it didn't happen!! :)
-
I didn't take any pix (phone was already flat from the Google Maps using up all the battery finding the house !), but it was a blast as per last year. The machines played really well, Tron stole the show (again) and the company was as always, a pleasure !
Thanks Michael and Moyra for putting on such an awesome meet.
-
I didn't take any pictures either, too busy talking and playing Michaels awesome collection of games.
It was a fantastic night, thanks again Michael and Moyra. ^^^
-
Super night, haven't played pinball till 1.30am for.....well for ever. Enjoyed catching up with everyone was the best imo. But hey throw in some pinball and life is good. ^^^

I had an amazing night, and we are grateful for so many people coming over to have fun with some like minded pinheads.
Also here is a quick time lapse video. Hope to get more AP members to the next one!

It really was an awesome night Michael, thanks for putting it on. All your machines were emaculate and your Tron was the best I've ever seen. First time I've played Roadshow too. What a great game who knew, well me I guess %.% . Couldn't get enough of it in the end, very cool. ^^^
-
I will admit it. I called a Stern distributor this week so see if he had a Tron.. I'll be a Grandfather before Stern release decent code for KISS LE, but I digress.
I was present to witness @Ryza (http://aussiepinball.com/index.php?action=profile;u=8123) play one almighty game on Tron and insert his name on the High Score list. At the next meet, please ban @pinball god (http://aussiepinball.com/index.php?action=profile;u=118) from Tron.

hey hey, easy there mate. Truth be know I had a cramp in my leg while playing and it just wouldn't go away, so I needed to lean on the Tron until I could get over the pain. It's not my fault the lactic acid took hours to clear.
-
Is that why the game tilted so often ?

Nice choice mate, mine is bolted to the floor!
At the next meet, please ban @pinball god (http://aussiepinball.com/index.php?action=profile;u=118) from Tron.
After he broke all my machines I am thinking of banning him from the whole meet!

I represent that remark

Rob came over not long after the meet, first thing he did was jump on Tron and left Deb, Moyra and I to talk amongst ourselves!
May have to impose a game limit on Rob for the next meet...... *%*
You may need to reconsider that Metallica Rob....... &&

Forgot all about this, we set up a go pro with a photo every minute for the duration of the meet.
Please enjoy 8 hours of fun crammed into 1 minute and 38 seconds!
Music seemed appropriate! #@#
