Portland Pinbrawl '09 Results

[revtest]

I put this on another tread also but Friday the 10th in the evening when all the ballers are out and about, I will drive around hitting all the spots spreading the GK tourny info pimping it hard! I have 3 spots in the ride and will need some ballers and fliers. You know to put it fresh in their minds a week before hand! who's with me?

sounds good

keith elwin is not coming to the tourney. try to hold back your tears until you're in private.

[Dropshot]

damn I was hoping he would...we will get him next year!

Hey, if you get the chance, record the match play results and send them to me. We can add all of the results to PARS:

http://www.papa.org/pars

It tracks pinball players like chess or other systems; you win, you go up... you lose, you go down. So if anyone is recording the detailed results (especially whether a match was 2-0 or 2-1, it matters for the rating). Actually, any play can be submitted to PARS -- you guys seem to play a lot, and it would be nice to add your information to a leaderboard that can change every time you play. Even two people playing challenges at a bar or house count; just send the results my way (full names please) at bkerins@gmail.com.

Wish I could make it, and thanks for putting on another great pinball tournament. Keep the community going strong!!

Here's the promotional artwork we created for the tournament. Besides using it on posters and in advertising, we're printing a short run of t-shirts for purchase and for giveaway as prizes on the day of the event. Illustration by Lee Zeman of .

That is a COOL poster! Love it!!!

... you do realize that there's already a 'Pinbrawl' that uses 4-player teams that compete agaisnt each other, right?

[eric]

Yeah, but Pinfracas just sounds plain old weird. If there's significant confusion or a cease and desist order we'll change the name of next year's tournament.

[Eden]

PINFRACAS!! Nicely played...

... see you guys this weekend

[Dropshot]

If anyone is interested myself, fred, eric, louie, and everyone else that is running this event is meeting down at GK this evening for a final touch up meeting around 8. I will be getting there around 6 between the 4 of us we plan to play every game and take any note of anything that needs to be tweaked. Anyone is welcome to join or just come down to play and practice up on that Batman Forever you love and know so well.

[ROM]

I get out of class around 9. I still have $17 on my gift certificate from the last tournament I won at GK, so I may swing by after to practice.

[Dropshot]

Just a reminder, pre-registration closes tomorrow at noon. Thank you all, for those that miss the pre-registration you can sign up the day of the event. GK's doors will open at 12:00, registration will begin at 1:00 and we plan to call out the first game at 2:00. Can't wait to see you all there.

[Dropshot]

Good luck everyone

Dang, that's fast. Good job, everyone. Cayle is a force to be reckoned with.

To anyone reading this: if you have pictures from the event that you'd like to share, post them on this thread. If you're not signed up for the message board, and don't want to sign up, you can email them to me at master.cob at gmail. thx.

[bounceback]

i can't count, was the total entry 97? that's pretty damn awesome!

[sauce]

I remember hearing the number 120 last night, but not sure if thats true.

[Dropshot]

120

[FHF]

Yeah, 120 people was pretty insane! It definitely helped that half the people pre-registered. I'm going to try and post the final bracket tonight so everyone can take a look. fred
