And as a slogan for your meets.... "you'll never know what you'll play"
Seriously though well done and definitely an asset to the community.

I'd love to do a road trip down to Paul's place Greg .. Will have to double check the date if I can make it or not ( isn't the 29th also when Jason on the Central Coast is having his meet ??) .
Paul if you could pencil me in with the "Newy Nutcase Crew" .. %.%
-
I'm free that weekend Paul, my camera & I would love to be there ;)
So I have been turfed as the "official photographer' at Rollerball meets then :lol
Suppose you do a pretty good job Evro and those cameras you use make mine look like a toy.
Oh yeah - count me in Paul ^^^
Have to see if the HH is as good as you say &&

Tony, that Panasonic Lumix you've got is actually a TOP camera, I'll have to show you how to use it in manual mode because that's how you get the really nice photos ;)

No disrespect to the Central Coast meet but you can't beat a Rollerball meet - coolest pins (well even though there are still no EMs #@#) and the coolest crowd :D
Even the coolest pizzas ^^^
A meet where you have to be there to be seen *)*

Paul,
If possible could you also please put down my Brother-in-Law Anthony (pinballahq here) *%*

Paul - Your meets are fast becoming "Local Legend" !
You are indeed an asset to the community opening your doors and allowing pinheads to play your fantastic collection. When I finally get out of my garage, I will make sure your place is on my list of places to visit !
^^^
-
Your always welcome here for a game mate...
And its funny really....Its not my pins that make my meets so good....any pins would do...Its the people that turn up that makes the night fun...and the Comps can be a great laugh...
looks like its going to be crowded in the garage this time...Lucky I extended then...

-
That's all BS - we come for the lollies and the pizza :lol

Sadly, I won't be able to make it tonight either -- was looking forward to it but have had my hands full wrapping up a major project this week at work and I'm just exhausted. Next time for sure! Would have been great fun though, especially cuz I planned on taking lots of photos and videos to torment Rod with while he was stuck at his gig. LOL Ah well ... I'll look forward to seeing all the great pics you guys are gonna take.

Another EXCELLENT night and a mega HUGE thanks goes out to Mr and Mrs Rollerball for allowing us to invade their place.

Alot of the regulars couldn't make it and some new and old faces were present.
New pins such as Playboy really got a major workout
Mark C and Child Amusements - what an amazing amount of top shelf prizes donated to the event - thanks Mark ^^^

Your PZ rocks, got my name in the high score list as well.

RB pinball meets are great nites. Classic line-up of pins, lotsa love for HH now because RB's plays sweet-as (kicks my ass though). Thanks to the hosts, the RB family live and breath pinball, and thats pretty awesome really. You couldnt share a game with a better bunch of guys, and I am sure we will enjoy this great hobby together for many years to come. #*#
-
What a fantastic night....nice pics as well guys...
Thanks again to MarkC for the great prizes...
MMmm what machines will be in my lineup for the next meet...who knows..lol
Bummer the BH and Flash had some issues on the night...but glad the HH and playboy got through there first meet working fine..

Definitely an awesome nite, my brother who hasn't played pinnies since his teens was blown away to play all those classic tables. By the way, great photos Tony ^^^
It was great to meet the Newy boys & to chat with Wotto and some of the regulars.
Thanks Paul & thank your lovely wife & kids for being such great hosts. @@*
PS: My brother only lives 2 minutes from your place and wants to know the name of the pizza joint you got those amazing pizza's from *%*
-
What a great night! Had family over this weekend and played pinballs and pool here till late too but spent the night thinking about the great night you guys would be having!
All these trophies and high standards, hard acts to follow!
Crusierman and Jybow good to see the Hunter Valley setting the pace in the comp!
That Playboy looks great in the photos and what better machine to have it out on.

Great Video, great pictures and Paul - You easily have the best "meet" in the country !
Good see the faces that are behind the screen names
I think you need to add an EM to your collection, Paul - maybe a 4 player - and hold a comp on that !

thanks for sharing...the vid made me fell like I was there. I know one thing, it wasn't held in Melbourne, we don't know what T-shirts are!!! @@*

Now to clarify a few points.....
* I did not break the Black Hole

* I did (assist) in breaking the Flash
* I was SHAMED in the comp - SHAMED !@)
* The Pizza was, as usual - perfect
* I ate too many lollies.
* I did not play Knights PZ.
* I have no idea what was going on with my head in that photo Tony.
* I did miss kicking Furballs ar$e on any machine I normally play against him when he attends these nights %$%
* Mark C's prize donations were extremely genourous to say the least.
* I did steal 2 red flipper buttons from Pauls 'stash' :lol :lol

RB pinball meets are great nites. Classic line-up of pins, lotsa love for HH now because RB's plays sweet-as (kicks my ass though). Thanks to the hosts, the RB family live and breath pinball, and thats pretty awesome really. You couldnt share a game with a better bunch of guys, and I am sure we will enjoy this great hobby together for many years to come. #*#
Correction, had your name in the high scores && I had to set it to factory defaults so I could post my high scores here #@!
Sounds like it was a great night.

Cool vid.. and pics

pinball, pizza, & BEER!!!!

Looks like a great night was had by all.
Well Done

What a Night!
Thanks again to Paul & Louise for hosting another great Night. #*#
Thanks for the chance to play so many cool pins that I used to play when I was younger.
I think I mentioned on the night "that it was like being a teenager again", playing those classics like Playboy,
Haunted House, Black Hole, Kiss, Flash, Firepower, Genie, etc, etc.
Thanks as well to Mark C for the supplying the prizes & to Paul for making those trophies too.
(the silver one does looks great next to the Stern Stingray trophy from your 2nd meet ) <.>
It was great to catch up with some familiar faces & meet some new ones as well.
If you haven't been to one of RB's meets yet ,you've missed out on a great night. Well worth the drive.
Us Newy guy's will we back, for sure.
Thanks again, Steve.

Steve failed to mention that he broke more games on the night than I did :lol :lol
I think he felt so much like a teenager again on Saturday that he was trying to rack up free credits with a gas ignition gun *)*

& the free credits thing, well... Paul if you find those metal washers & "coins on a string" jamming up the coin mechs, well ... they're probably mine! :lol
