Any idea yet, Brock? Also for Gerry... is there a more solid Quebec ETA yet?

I did notice I'm getting notifications. Thanks guys!

Thanks for the update!

It looks like the Lady Elisabeth is on the move again. At least it was until an hour ago. It seems to have stopped. I wonder if the machines are still on board, or if they've been unloaded at the port...

I think the Lady Elisabeth has reached her end of the line. (unless its just loading up again) The ship is docked in the Port of Augusta, Italy, and is awaiting the next ship to load the pins onto. http://www.multiball.org/2013/03/lady-e ... -2013.html

Hopefully Brock will know soon if he will tackle it or not. If he knows before April, that would leave approx 2 weeks or so (according to Gerry ETA is Apr 14) to arrange something else. Or do we think two weeks may be too risky to coordinate the pickup?

What the H man, you're just posting this now?? I'll be sure to follow. :) As for a fifth table... from what I understand, the average kitchen table could be replaced with at least a machine or two.

Thanks for the link, Gerry! Ship info: http://www.marinetraffic.com/ais/shipde ... =636091612 Map: http://www.marinetraffic.com/ais/defaul ... =lastknown I'll be tracking it on my site every few days until it gets to Quebec.

Well played! I'm usually the guy who points out other people's unintentional euphemisms. :lol:

Nice! And, welcome aboard. ;) R&B is one of the few pins I remember playing in high school. (I was a vid kinda guy back then) I've got a pretty tight entrance to my basement too... there may be a few dings on the wall when I bring my first machine downstairs next month. :D

Hey Gerry, I think I saw in a previous container deal, that people could track the ship as it crossed the ocean... are you able to get that info for this container as well?

Well, it looks like that would cover everyone in the GTA. hippochrome mentioned if he had to, he could make the trip and bring back a pin or two to Ottawa. If Brock only has a finite amount of space, maybe hippochrome could run his and Rev's machines to Ottawa? I'd hate for anyone to get left...

Mike (dubplate) and I have discussed that. We would most likely be able to make the trip if everyone chipped in for a rental truck. I'll talk with him today and see if that's something we could keep as a last resort option... however, it would still be great if Brock is able to do it!

Best ratings system. Ever.

Most Fridays at work I like to get a 1/2 lb burger from the restaurant in our plaza called Cagney's. It's not a fast food burger, but it is very good! I usually add a Caesar salad and/or fries. (and a beer as I wait :P)

Adriano gave me the name/email for the guy who did their shipping last time. I have yet to contact him, but Adriano thinks it may be past the season he does shipping in. I will send him a message today to see what he says. It'll be fantastic if Brock can do it, but I'll get as many other options...

A quick (and possibly silly) question for Gerry, or anyone else who's bought a container machine from him in the past: Do the machines come with legs, or should I be looking to pick up a set?

Even though I've gotten some very good advice from Drano/Adriano (oh, I just got that nickname now), I'm still a little nervous about being the guy who organizes something like this. I've never bought a pin before, let along organize shipping for so many other guys. If there is anyone who would...

LoL, reminiscent of SP's OPERATION HUMAN SHIELD. **edit** only WAY less racist :lol:

I think that's my machine on the bottom right side. Yay!
