It’s that time again (or at least it will be in about four hours): time for the sixth meeting of the fourth season of the League. Our benevolent pinball king, Matt P., tentatively selected the following games:
- Lord of the Rings
- Austin Powers
- Indiana Jones
- Getaway
- Attack from Mars (if more than 16 players show up)
We haven’t played Lord of the Rings once this season, mostly because it was confused and giving out unearned multiballs and jackpots for a while, and I suspect certain parties will be happy to see it return. Austin Powers is almost certainly not going to get played as it was still disabled last night. (A ball has gotten lodged in one of the bonus lanes by some debris that’s fallen there and until that’s cleared, it’s unplayable.) Addams Family has just made a surprising return to the Avenue and we usually will play any game that’s new, but it’s also unlikely that it will end up in rotation since it is intermittently failing to load balls.
Will Chris regain his #1 position? Will anything get slam tilted? Will Addams Family be playable? Will we be able to see our hands in front of our faces? Will Austin Powers just explode already? These and many other mysteries will be solved tonight at 7 p.m. at the Avenue!
I’m going to go out on a limb here and guess that Austin Powers is going to be turned on, but still not actually working, by the time league starts gathering. Also that it’ll be annoying until it gets turned off again.
