....and this is the history so far of the past 4 competitions

Well another competition wraps up and a new one starts up....where does the time go? Just when I thought we had all the nail biting finishes we managed to find another one for COMP 4! Would you believe "NOB" took the title away from "KAZ" on the very last game of the night and to top it all off that was a buy in game as well! - Here is a list of the past final machines -

  • 1st comp - NO FEAR - Williams 1995

  • 2nd comp - CUE BALL WIZARD - Gottlieb 1992

  • 3rd comp - JOKER POKER - Gottlieb 1978 - The winning score on the night was 228 362

  • 4th comp - JUNK YARD - Williams 1996 - The winning score was 79, 420

  • 5th comp - LUCKY HAND - Gottlieb 1977 - The winning score on the day was 120,230

So as you can see you just never know what your going to end up playing in the final!

PINBALL COMP 5

Roger Z and the winner of Pinball Comp 5 "VAD" in front of the machine he has just won - Williams 1996 Jackpot - which was 3rd instalment of the pinbot trilogy.

2nd photo is the winner in front of the competition machine. I must admit I did pick a nasty machine to do the final on, it was old and it had the classic gaps where when you go to hold the ball - it rolls back up the return lane and into the out lane - make sure you check the videos out as you will see where this happens.

Pinball comp 5 was the fastest comp I have ever done as it was done in 2 days at the 2009 EXPO. The rules were slightly different and the pace was faster!!

Sadly I didn't really have enough machines there as I didn't anticipate the crowds that we got, but luckily everyone was patient and we got through to the finals!!

The finals I must admit were a bit more pressured than usual as we had more individual finalists than we have ever had before, so the poor buggers had to perform before a crowd - even I would find it difficult to play pinnies in front of a crowd of people. Again it was another exciting final as the lead changed places and their were some interesting games especially with BJ who scored 99, 340 but sadly tilted the game on the fourth ball....even I forgot that those old click clack games punish you severely for that by killing your whole game - Damn those pinballs!! It was all great fun and Z BALL gave away its 5th 1990's pinball to VAD from Dubbo - good on ya mate!
