I got my screenshot on the day I was the 420th highest pinball player. It's all good in the hood from here ;)

Did anyone make a flier for this tournament?

We should, like, try to advertise it locally.

No. We are too lazy and dependent on technology. But hey, why not compromise. Maybe someone should whip up a black and white flier, post it on the board, then people can print it out and take it to their local spot! You know, grass roots and all that.

PS - If Aaron makes a flier, that means Sara makes the flier, which means it's nice, which means you gotta print it on nice paper, which means it costs money out of the pot, and that money will rightfully be mine, so we didn't make any fliers! But I do think it's a good idea since probably a lot of people who play pinball don't use any of the sites and might not even know about the tourney.

Ya, time for an advertising blitz.

You'd think that Ground Kontrol would be into making a flier...

They do make a flier. It just takes them until a week before the tourney to get it out. They basically use the t-shirt art as a flier and hang it up at ground kontrol.

Nice flier, Fred. It really "got my attention."

I made one, too. Here it is! Spread the news.

Excellent! Now we just need a pan-sexual non-threatening spokes-thing and we'll be all set. I mean, clearly when people drain and get pissed and start slamming machines around they probably just need pit-pat to give them a big hug and an "I love you."

"goddammit I love you guys and your pinball ways."

Also, I hope the overhead lighting at GK is not staying like that (i was last there during Showdown weekend) ...

We also emailed everyone last night who signed up last year. I think we have gotten 1 sign-up and one response telling us not to email them ever again.

To parrot a joke someone here once said, "does it come with a signed apology from Steve Richie"?
