The battle was closely contested as it came down to all players having 3 strikes heading into the last couple of games. Travis finished at the top, Casey Taylor in 2nd, Tom Vandenberg in 3rd, and Michael Alexander in 4th. Thanks to all 17 players who put up scores for the month of February.

I also tried to take some pictures of everyone playing in the early rounds, I apologize if I missed anyone, but I feel like league is important to all of us for a variety of reasons and it was nice to try to capture the fun moments. Plus you know this means there is a Winter Season hype video coming…

Reminder that next week will be the Monthly 3-strikes tournament. I will be gone on vacation, but the tournament will still be run through Brackelope as usual. Still starts at 8PM and is 3 strikes format with a $5 entry fee.

I’m including a brief poll, a simple yes or no response.

Week 1 and August Selfie-League Standings, Week 2 Games and Tutorial Videos

Hey guys! Just wanted to send a big thanks out to everyone who showed up for week 1! It was awesome to see everyone again and hopefully we can keep our numbers growing so feel free to bring a friend tomorrow for week 2. Jeff thanks for making the drive and checking out league, glad you enjoyed it and hope to see you coming back more and more.

Below are the standings after week 1. Matt Peace was 1/2 point shy of completing a perfect week which has not happened since we began keeping our stats via PinPortal! Also Joe had to leave due to an emergency, he had not completed Family Guy or Spider-Man when he left, he went back and played those games on Thursday and I will get those scores entered asap, it should only have a mild impact on overall standings.

Fall season week 1 standings

The games for week 2 are as follows Eight Ball Deluxe, Avatar LE, Creature from the Black Lagoon, Demolition Man, and Harlem Globetrotters!

Fall season week 2 games

Here are tutorials for the games in case anyone needs some pointers before tomorrow night!
