A few concerns were expressed, so I have decided to take the entry down to $20 (the normal price attending a TBPL meetup), and having the pot pay 50% out to the top three, with the other 50% going to Project Pinball. Sorry for the late change, and I hope to see a lot of you guys out. See you tomorrow!

Fantastic tournament. Thanks to Patrick for running it and Robert for hosting it at the Lowry Parcade. Project pinball is a great charity and it was good to see Dan Spolar himself who showed up for the tournament.
Congratulations to Jason Werdrick who won the tournament.

I had a great time also, Big thanks to Owl for setting this up and supporting a great charity. The venue exceeded all expectations and was very festive. If your in the area check Lowry Parcade out, it has something for everyone.

Thanks to Robert for providing food and prizes. And congratulations to Jason for coming in and ramping up the competition. Nice run for Denise and Jim Beam coming in under the cut to put up a impressive run in the finals. Can't wait for the next one!

Good job everyone!

Also, I think Jim Beam answered Scott's question ;)
