Southern Wizards Pinball League - 1st night been and gone
« on: July 15, 2012, 01:18:00 AM »
Hey all

The SWPL started tonight at my joint.

13 members turned up , including a new guy from The Gong who made contact with me after the article in the Illawarra Mercury the other week.

The night went pretty well - with no hiccups.

The main comp was held on my T3 machine.
We each had 2 games on the machine and the combined scores gave us our total finish points / positions for the night.
My mate BERT had a 1st game 'fire ball' - the average type of game score on this machine with the settings I have it on ( hard ) is around 20 - 40 million, so BERT opens up with a 168 million first game  #@#

He won the night  #*#

The results for the 1st round can be seen here - http://home.kooee.com.au/brainsnap/ladder.htm

We also ran a ONE ball comp on the night - on Creature from the Black Lagoon - the winner was Rollerball who scored himself a T shirt from The Pacific Pinball Museum in CA.


Our players are playing for these trophies along with a $250 RTBB parts voucher, a waterfront seafood restraunt voucher, Sennheisser headphones , custom SWPL winners T shirts and other prizes.





Should be a fun year ahead - a couple of pics of the night
Rod took some video that he may upload later  *!@
