8/30/2010 League rankings have been adjusted. Robert holds on to the number one spot with Raymond right behind him. Bobby, Maka And Jamie Beth are all making moves for the top spots. We now have 72 members. Tournament recap August brings us to Renton and Byron's sweet bunch of DMDs. The pinball collection has many favorite games including Star Trek: The Next Generation which is in a Galaxy class all it's own. 40 participants for the VRPA style tourney which means game selection is critical. Newcomer George Lally beat up his first round group winning every game and earning 35 points. A four way tie at 23 points between Jeff G, James E, Mitch A, and Kayla E, played out at a garage sale....... I mean on Safecracker. Safecracker is a timed game with some unique rules if you've still got time you're still alive which was the case for James and Jeff.
One semi-final game had ANU edging CFF by a mere 20 million on ST:TNG. That's really all I remember from the semis..... games played were ST:TNG, Safecracker, WC94, CV, IJ, CP, TOM. A score of 8 or 9 had Andrew, Bobby Conover, Brian Chesbrough, and George Lally in the finals.
Bobby dominates the first game on Safecracker with 832, 680 almost doubling his nearest competitor. Brian chooses ST:TNG for game 2 and gets first. George chooses TOTAN for a winner takes all game three. The ball bonced around.... Bobby had a lead.... ANU playing his third ball, locked some balls.... got multiball.. got bonus.... got Straight Down The Middle.... ANU slap saves too hard and tilts.. no bonus. Bobby sweats out his third ball and George's for his first SPL victory. Congrats Bobby. Andrew and Brian play Theatre.... Andrew 2nd, Brian 3rd and in his first SPL event George 4th.
Good fun food and friends. See you at Todd's.
ANU
