I dreamt about Pinfest last night, that said I did check out the chinwag with Phil before bed.

Awoke thinking the classic Bally's have been thin on the ground the few years I've went.
We're bringing Centaur and there's a Flash Gordon in the classics and an 8 ball champ in the comp. But what else am I missing?
Are there just not many about? Or people avoid bringing them for some reason?

I dreamt I was sacked from work for frequently and too loudly burping (which isn't generally an issue I have whilst conscious)

Your dream sounds better!

mr and mrs pac-man, spectrum, xenon are there

in prev years there’s been fathom, elektra, star trek, fireball II, paragon, mata hari - just straight off the top of my head. I guess there’s been plenty of others.

I guess I used to be blind to them until I realised how good they are!

 

[Epotech]

are the pinball amigos attending? I wasn't bringing Forbidden Planet but maybe I can get it there if I can get Fathom brung by other means.

 

[Big Phil]

Not this year

 

[David_Vi]

Any chance the TBAs could be a Flash or Harlem?

 

[myPinballs]

I have 2 more games that i could bring in my van with MG if general floor games are still wanted/needed ??

1) Alien LV (will be for sale)
2) Theatre of Magic (depends if i get it going by then) OR Ultraman CE if TOM not working and i can be ****d moving it out of the basement.

 

[kevlar]

Alien and Ultraman would be amazing!

 

[Fantazia2]

Deffo Ultraman.

I think we may have a Tom already, but might be nice to have the PB and HW Aliens next to each other again.

No need to extend... just replace the classic games with modern as there is already a classic tournament.

 

[Jmac]

Put my wcs in if you wanted. It’s still set up the same as at the last Pinhaus tournament
