One day we will get you to the great white north. :grinning:

Just a reminder to everyone that the website goes live and tickets officially go on sale today for YEGPIN - 2018 Edmonton Pinball and Arcade Expo at 10:00 AM MST.

Sounds like a great event, pretty accessible flights as well to get to it!

Absolutely the website just went live a few minutes ago already have a number of VIP Pass sold. It looks far away when you look on a map but the event is very accessible flight for anyone in the Western US.

Okay last reminder for admission tickets for YEGPIN - 2018 Edmonton Pinball and Arcade Expo on May 4-6, 2018. We have only one week left until VIP Tickets and the Weekend Pass pre-order bonus ends. That is right if you don’t buy now don’t blame us these tickets will no longer be available for this year. Weekend passes will be available for purchase online after the March 1, 2018 but the pre-order bonus will be removed. All other tickets for daily and weekend passes, and for “YEGPIN After Dark” can be purchased at the door. Thanks again for all your support and look forward to seeing you all at the expo!!!

All tournament information is located on our website, over $10,000 in cash and prizes will be given away this year at our pinball tournaments. There is just under 150 competitors pre-registered for the main and classics tournament and probably with be a bunch more walks ins on event day. We have competitors from British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario and Washington (good thinking taking advantage of that Canadian $$$) all committed to playing.

REALLY looking forward to this great event! See you there!

Hmm… looks like the video archive has disappeared from twitch :frowning: Was hoping to get it uploaded to pinballvideos.com for posterity…

I believe the plan is to convert them to You Tube, once we do we will post the links.

as soon as my semi finals game on TNA is omitted i agree :smiley:

The stream is now up for the Western Canadian Pinball Championships from YEGPIN. Special thanks goes to Puck for giving us such a great professional setup for the stream. Trevor from Arcade Video who developed all of the cool effects and of course to the “voice” of Pinball in Canada Jeff Teolis for all his work on the mic. Contributions from many others to make it happen. We know we have some improvements to do to make it even higher quality and will look to do this for next year. Stay tuned for announcements soon for the 2019 show and if you are interested in coming to the show, and also helping with commentating we will again be looking for knowledgeable help in that area to improve the stream even more for next year. Anyone who wants to submit to pinball videos can as well for all to see.

See you all and enjoy!!
