Mask-Up and come on down to North End Pub for Pinball League Night! Anyone is welcome. If you missed last week no big deal we will get you added in. If you were there last week but can’t make it this week also no big deal. We play 8 weeks total and your best 6 weeks count in the standings. The season will end with a fun tournament. No previous experience required, free to join and just cost a couple quarters to play the games! See you all down there!
We had a small score correction from week one, here are the updated and corrected results. See everyone Thursday!
A big thank you to everyone who came out and played in Pinball League last night! It was great to see everyone again and I hope everyone had some fun while there.Thanks for following the safety guidelines and wearing masks. One week down, and eight to go! After getting the last game score in just now we have the updated standings after week one below!
We will see everyone again next week, and as usual feel free to show up early and stay late, but expect to start flipping for league at about 8:30 as our players who also play in the bowling league wrap up around then.
Don’t forget also we have Avengers: Infinity Quest and Radical! both coming into the bar at some point this month as well, and if things are looking good we may run a monthly tournament on October 25th, I’ll update that info in the coming days.
Again THANK YOU!!!!
It is the second best day of the week! Free Pinball down at North End Pub all night long! AEW on TNT! Food and drinks at the bar, and best of all PINBALL LEAGUE is back tomorrow night! So get in all the practice you can tonight because you’re going to need it for tomorrow!
Hey everyone, just another small reminder that we will have Pinball League again starting on Thursday. The league is just for fun and is not affiliated with the IFPA in anyway, but we do have a sweet mini championship belt that will go to the Champion at the end of the season!
Just like usual we will play in groups of 4, and encourage social distancing, masks, and sanitizing. North End Pub will have food and drinks available just like always so come early and grab a pizza and a pitcher of beer to get in some practice and stay late with friends afterwards. Do whatever you think is safest and best for yourself at this time and we hope to see a few of you down to enjoy some social pinball competition!
Pinball Portal will remain the location of our league scoring and standings.
Just a friendly reminder that Pinball League is coming back to North End Pub next week on Thursday, October 1st! It has been 7 months since we have gathered together to enjoy the battle against the silverball, and quite frankly I think we are all ready to battle once more.
As per usual we will say league starts about 8:30 PM to play, we will stick to groups of 4 like we always have, and we encourage masks, social distancing, and good hygiene like washing your hands and using sanitizer.
The League as always remains free to join, and will last 8 weeks. Just plan to bring a few dollars of quarters for the machines each week. Food and drinks are available like always!
We should have at least 20 machines available for league with our new Avengers: Infinity Quest machine scheduled to arrive sometime after the first week of October. Check out the amazing rules exploration video below to get some idea of how the game will play once we have it added to our lineup.
We are also planning to add our first System 11 game to North End Pub sometime during the season. System 11 are a games that bridge the gap between the early solid state like our Flash Gordon, and the completely modern games like Fish Tales. I couldn’t think of a better game for our little spot of pinball heaven than 1990’s Radical! The crazy skateboarding themed game is loaded with 4 flippers and ramps everywhere! These games are characterized by unique layouts and simpler rules and this game to me to screams the 90s which I love. Our game is going to have some updated roms installed that provide and even better ruleset, but to give you and idea of how it plays here is another great tutorial video. The second video is from a major tournament two years ago showing off some of the newer rules that help balance the game out.
Bottom line is I personally can’t wait to see everyone and I’m looking very forward to playing some pinball with my friends again!
Oh yes, it’s league night, oh what a night! Get down to North End Pub for Pinball League tonight at 8:30 PM! We had a good turnout last week and hope to keep growing as the season advances. Remember anyone can play and there is no cost to join!
I forgot them last week, but I have stickers and magnets for anyone who comes out and plays in the league tonight and that includes the new Limited Edition holographic North End Pub Pinball stickers that are shown below!
Here are the standings after week 1!
It’s the 2nd best day of the week! Free Pinball at North End Pub all night long! The best day of the week is obviously Thursday night because Pinball League has just started back up as of last week which means anyone can still join. Get all the practice in you can tonight and then tomorrow head back to NEP to show off your skills! League is at 8:30 on Thursday night so bring some friends!
Thank you to everyone who came out and played in the first week of our Spring Season at North End Pub! Here are the standings so far this season. See everyone this Thursday at 8:30 PM for week 2 and if you can’t make it then don’t forget we have Makeup Monday so you can still get your games in for the week the following Monday if you let me know you will be able to play that night instead.
Also, don’t forget you can check out where you stand against the players from locations all around the state at our HOPS League Website!
If any of you out there missed out on playing in league last Thursday tonight is your chance to make it up! Just be at North End Pub by about 8:30 and we will get you paired up into groups for the night, see you there!
