      Had a great time and was happy to get into the top 8.

      Thought Avengers was a challenging, yet really fun game. Would love one at home.

      PnP dominated team and individual comps... Good day and good location..

      PnP got first in the teams, and Scott (CruiserMan) came first overall.

      Was a great venue, (held at AMD) probably 50 people there or so, 8 or 9 games downstairs on free play (xmen le, avengers le etc) and 3 avengers LE, 3 avengers pro setup upstairs for the comp. There was also a bbq and drinks.

      Those new GI Leds without the bayonet really are a PITA, two of the LEs lost a GI bulb during the comp, one of them lost 2.

      I really liked Avengers as a game, I know Richard found it a bit boring, but the shots are super tight, and it feels different to all the fan layouts of recent times that have been coming out of Stern. The Avengers LE is my pick, I prefer it over the Hulk version, even though the hulk version will probably command more dollars down the line. Best cabinet and probably backglass was again the Pro model (I thought that with Xmen too).

      Was a good day all round, hopefully I can make the next one.

      Seeing if the ball was in the sling again, or if the lights had come out.
