Barry Oursler Charity Tournament

Fellow LPL member, Bob Skinner, is hosting a tournament to benefit ailing pinball designer, Barry Oursler. Barry is the brilliant mind behind many of our favorite machines, including Pinbot, Doctor Who, Bram Stoker’s Dracula, and many more. The tournament is this Saturday in Pittsboro (just outside Indianapolis). The event is open to the public. Here’s a link for more details:

Final League Results

Well, it was truly a thrilling league final. A lot of really tight matches, high scores, and some great come backs. My favorite was Cory’s game on Tron. Cory had about 2 mil to Phil’s (my) 30 mil on ball 3, and came back to win the game.

Of course,  I must mention Bob’s amazing game on Creature. Bob put up over 1 Billion points to win the game, and claim the Grand Champion score. First time I’ve ever seen a 4x Jackpot + 4x Super + Second 4x Jackpot. Impressive.

The final’s for A division was a near repeat of Spring 2013. Phil was knocked to the losers bracket early in the tournament by Bob, only to face him again in finals. Phil needed to beat Bob twice in order to win (two, best-out-of-three matches). Unlike 2013, Phil ended up victorious, but only after 6 very tense games.

Finalists for A-division:

  1. Phil Grimaldi
  2. Bob Skinner
  3. Cory Livingston

Finalists for B-Division:

  1. Dan St. John
  2. Richard Serie
  3. Tom Vandenberg

Well played everyone! Thanks again to Dan for hosting and Tom for organizing.

Week 8 Results

tronBelow are the results from Week 8. I have to begin by apologizing–apparently something went awry with the table that sorts the overall standings. Basically, Kevin and Terry somehow got swapped, as well as Dan Isaacson and Dan St. John. I’m pretty sure this only affected the overall standings. I have it sorted now, but please double check your scores and notify me if anything looks incorrect. The sooner the better!

First place went to Tommy, for the second week in a row. Tommy put up high scores on Demolition Man, Tron, and Tri-Zone. Congrats! Second place went to Tom Vandenberg, who put up a high score on Fun House. Nice!

In order to play in the league playoffs, you must attend at least 3 league meetings. Tonight is Week 6 of 8! So, if there are any folks out there that have been wanting to join the league but haven’t gotten around to it, you best show up tonight!

If you can’t make it tonight, you can still show up to week 7 and 8. However, you won’t qualify to participate in the playoffs.
