The Saratoga now has 6 tables

[inthecan]

Looks like all of the Ricochet machines are out and someone else's machines are in, pretty nice lineup overall and the machines are in really nice condition and they all seem to still have factory set high scores. This place is a decent bar, the food I have had there was quite nice.

WCS 94 (great shape!)
Black Rose
Spiderman (Stern)
LOTR
STTNG
AF

[ROM]

Thanks. I updated the map. Except what is AF?

[HornedGramma]

Addams Family?

[ROM]

Oh... yeah, probably. People usually abbreviate that to TAF. right?

[Dropshot]

TAF, I think those are cashbox machines so don't expect them to last that long.

[ROM]

Meh, I play sweet Cashbox machines often.

Their machines are lousy at some locations. But at others they are great. This is a complex world we live in!

[PirateMike]

nifty... haven't been in there for a couple weeks, gonna have to swing by

[PirateMike]

went by tonight, but was not willing to pay 5$ to get in for "bear-racuda" night lol

[PirateMike]

got some games in - fire button on black rose is not working, everything else seemed to be in good shape so far... Adams is nice and loose, be a definite billion+ score coming up on that from someone.

[PatC]

Went by last night... the games are all in really good shape (didn't play black rose).

The Lord of the Rings was perhaps the brightest, quickest, cleanest one in town. Not a light out on it, saw things I don't normally see..

Spiderman's only real flaw was the too-high-magnet (like really too high and really hard to lock doc ock).

It was pretty empty on a Monday night.

[PirateMike]

yeah, the doc on spidey is a bitch to hit

[ROM]

Dannyb and I stopped in last night. This place is rad. The machines were playing great (but yeah, the doc on spider-man was ridiculous). They were spinning metal/prog/other, and there is tons of room. Plus there are lots of booths. And tacos are $1 on Tuesdays. This would be a sweet spot for tournaments.

[Opto]

Hey - they could re-level the magnet!!! Jeff Spazz and I did that last night on Pats spidey . . . and boy is it a bitch.

[ROM]

My problem with Doc was that I would hit it over and over and over and it wouldn't register. Maybe 1/5 shots would register.

[PatC]

You guys must have stopped by after JD, Miles and I left... the music wasn't bad, it was just way too loud for playing casually, so we took off.

I was having fun on that Lord of the Rings again; it's fast and bouncy.

[ROM]

Some songs were louder than others. It didn't bother me, though. And I was digging the grooves. Yeah, we showed up around 11pm.

[PirateMike]

[Dropshot]

The metal guide needs to be bent down, it takes 2 minutes and and only 4 screws need to be removed. That will never happen on a cashbox machine though.

[PirateMike]

Black Rose was taken out.

Flippers are getting weak on WCS, but definitely still playable.

LOTR is slicker than shit out of a ducks ass. Plays really really nice. It did start a ring mode on launch of the first ball two games in a row, which was odd...

[inthecan]

I was just in here yesterday, WCS's left flipper is currently weak and slightly offset, ramp shot on L is in need of a few screws being tightened and the magnet for the ball lock is not working but multi-ball seems unaffected. On the plus side they now have a TZ that is playing very nice as well as a change machine so you don't have to bother the busy bartender, ha, ha, no one is ever in this place when I go there and I think the bartender would welcome the opportunity to do something. Seems like a very cool place to catch a show, they have really cleaned the the place up nicely.
