We had a fantastic night at Replay Bar last Thursday, with plenty of friendly competition and exciting moments. The event went a little longer than planned, but that just gave everyone more time to enjoy the games -and we saw some fantastic show-downs! After several rounds of Matchplay, players advanced to the Strikes Knockout, where only the best stayed standing.
A big shout-out to all our winners for their outstanding performances, and a special shout-out to "Ball 3 Solomon" for making multiple epic last-chance comebacks. And congratulations to Simon, who won the door prize -- a collectable Avatar figurine from Stern's 2010 Avatar game.
We're grateful to Stern Army for their generous contributions, including the Translite and Mustang collectable cars from their 2014 game, along with the Avatar figurine. Thanks also to AMD Pinball, who provided fantastic prizes, including T-shirts, a schooner, and a beer cozy. A special thanks goes to Lee, one of our dedicated members, for creating the awesome custom TAPP coasters.
We appreciate everyone who joined us for the event and can't wait to see you at the next one!
(Lastly, just a note, we may have mentioned to a few attendees the next event would be Thursday Fortnight. This was a mistake, and the next event is on Saturday the 21st September).
We're all set for another exciting pinball night in Hobart, and we'd love for you to join us! Whether you're new to pinball or a seasoned player, this is your chance to dive into the action. We'll kick things off with Matchplay rounds, where you'll be grouped with others to rack up points.
The top players from Matchplay will move on to a Strikes Knockout, where it's all about staying in the game as long as possible. We've got multiple divisions to keep things competitive but fair, and some awesome prizes are up for grabs. So, whether you're aiming for the top spot or just looking to have a casual night socialising, we hope to see you there!
