rusty_dagger Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 (edited) This could be a silly idea but lets try to organise it. Comp details. 4 hours of qualifying with a 2 p.m start. Finals to be held after dinner which will be at 6pm but if qualifying can be done sooner it will be earlier. Please get your comp games finished ASAP so you have plenty of time to socialise afterwards. Score sheets will be on each machine with attendees names on them. If you name isnt please write it down. Format. There will still be an 'A' and 'B' Division with equal prizes in both. You play 6 games on the nominated machines with your best 5 results going towards your final standing. The top 4 placed players will go through to the 'A' division finals . The highest 4 from the second half of the field will go into the 'B' division finals. Finals will be on 3 randomly chosen machines with the 7,5,3,1 format of awarding points. Single round and the person with the most points wins. Tiebreakers are TBA. House rules. Please remember that Houseball is a social event, we are not playing for sheep stations. Please show the hosts and their machines the utmost respect as without them this event ceases to be a thing. Please remove all rings/bracelets when playing. You will be asked to leave if you are found abusing machines/other players. Smokers please ensure you leave no butts around the place. The host should be able to tell you where it is ok to smoke. As usual 30 will be the limit but may be extended at the hosts discretion. And lastly, a bit of friendly banter is encouraged. ** Please note ** People will be asked to maintain social distancing and i will endeavour to provide hand sanitiser. If you have a small personal bottle of hand sanitiser it would be great to bring along with you on the day. ** If you have any cold/flu symptoms , please don't attend ** Food and costs. $10 covers food per person. $5 to cover the hosts expenses. $5 into the prize pool. Total $20 for the event. 1 @rusty_dagger 2 @RaoulJuke 3 @AtariTam 4 @Dicky 5 @raysco 6 @Cranky Dave 7 @visualmagic 8 @Andyj965 9 @zanderzone 10 @Sandyzone 11 @madal 12 @Replay 13 @Tonjo 14 @namastepat 15 Kade 16 Tony T 17 @Kez 18 @JoeSoap 19 @Saber 20 Dayv Irving 21 Pete Moffitt 22 Adam Newton 23 Doivid Clarke 24 Grant Thorpe 25 Les Doyle 26 Dave S 27 @SilverBalljunky 28 Marie La Motta 29 @DanTheMan 30 @KJS Reserves 31 @FireFly Edited July 28, 2021 by rusty_dagger 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AtariTam Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 Hey everyone Just a heads up we are going to put on the Brisbane FB page that this Houseball is cancelled due to COVID restrictions as we are not sure how it will go. The finals numbers on this one was close to 50 last time i saw, which i can't see being possible in the current climate. Our plan is if restrictions allow us to do one with capped crowd numbers of 25-30 people we will still go ahead with close friends and Aussie Arcade lifers getting first preference to those spots. We will update it all here on the new improved AA website 😀 If it does go ahead, the line up will likely be Funhouse Junkyard Creature from the Black Lagoon F-14 Tomcat Bad Cats Earthshaker Grand Lizard Banzai Run Deadpool Pro Iron-Man Baby Pac-Man Star Wars Trilogy Class of 1812 Maybe - Paragon, Q*berts Quest and a few others Any confusion or questions about this, ask them here so everyone can see. Thanks- Marcus & Tammie 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AtariTam Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Hi guys, we are unfortunately going to have to cancel this again due to Covid restrictions. Really sorry, was hoping things would open up but i think its just too risky during the current situation - So confirm, no Houseball this weekend 😞 On 17/08/2021 at 5:02 PM, gapmaster said: I have had a late change of shift and can finally make a houseball.
