Well i got free reign of all the pins at 8.30am - only one not working - Centaur... which actually was the one i wanted to play most.There was not a pin that didnt get constant use throughout the whole day - honestly.. as one player finished - another took their place. Those machines were running hot.As i walked round i smelt one burnt transistor from a locked on coil. Most machines if you had been there at the end of sat night had tickets on them stating - out of credits. The techs could not get to the machines due to the amount of people present. Centaur kept blowing solenoid fuse - not enough time to fix it despite a new coil being put in place - only machine to not work at all.Lack of air flow - my fault... i had the side door right next to me and i deliberately had it shut to stop the bloody wind blowing all my stuff about and to prevent non payers from entering. Stale air - Wottos fart. Commercial guys were invited but had to contribute to set up costs - this was declined. Did Expo make a profit?? I doubt it but i dont know Did i?? No friggin way..... but theres a year ahead yet and from the interest ive had POST Expo - it will pay itself and then more. Within 2 hours of expo being open i asked Rian if next year meant a bigger venue - the answer was a definate YES!Expo is here to stay.. have been talking to Michael this morning... and ill be on my stall next year and it will be full of merchandise
