I actually just fixed up a Demolition Man pinball, might be able to get my hands on it eventually but it's not in the city right now.

The organizer told me that a lot of people have committed to bringing games but just haven't confirmed what they're bringing yet.

How does the Twitter deal work? Could you actually send out a message that will be seen by everyone who follows #yyc?

Habernac, let me know if you're interested in a Hurricane pinball. Same type of theme designed by the same people, 3rd in the series. I believe they did Comet, Cyclone and then Hurricane.

With or without those little button covers that take away the ability to use a pen to make you run twice as fast?

If you make a tweet with the #yyc hashtag, anyone who searches for #yyc will see it. #yyc is a very busy hashtag so you gets lots of action.

Is anyone planning on coming to this? If so great. If not, Is there anything that we can do differently to get you to come out?

Is there going to be a Twilight Zone PB there? If so I'm in.

I'd really like to make it down regardless....depends on what that weekend brings. Convincing the wife this is an appropriate use of what little time we have - is challenging.

You need to combine this even with something female-friendly. Pinball/Arcade show in one half, bridal fair in the other?
