First place in each division was awarded the not quite so coveted Extremely Tiny Pinball Machine trophy, this season commemorating the classic Bally game Centaur and built by Rob. Hopefully Kevin will once again build them next season. ^_^;

Joe picked it in the first round and took a zero with under 10 million points; when Rick picked it for the final round, he took a 1 and Joe got 4 points with 1.3bills. Joe followed that up with a loss on Iron Maiden to Alex, but then got tired of losing and sank 4 pointers for the rest of the night. Adam started with a strong 2nd place on GoT and then got punched and his lunch money stolen on Avengers: Infinity Quest twice. Rick made some strong head-to-head inroads but stumbled when Joe destroyed Centaur. Rick did give Alex his only loss of the night on Supersonic, and going into the final round it was almost a three-way tie... but Alex had a strong final ball shooting 12x shots like the El Jefe that he is, and when the dust settled he and Joe were tied and that IM game clinched it.

> And speaking of lunch money getting stolen...  Eric and Steve spent the night running roughshod over Rob and Audrey. Eric started the winning with 4 points on Centaur and couldn't stop, only taking 2nd after it no longer mattered. Steve had a rough start on Centaur, then won all of his other games except the h-t-h against Eric. Rob finally figured out how to play pinball for one game against Audrey on Game of Thrones, and promptly forgot everything he had learned after that. Going into the final round on Attack from Mars Eric was assured of victory, but Steve still had something to prove and totally annihilated everyone else.

> As they say in darts, nice grouping. This was a very competitive division, with everybody getting at least one 4 point game. Then the curse of the game pick struck: Roy won the first round on Avengers, Rob won his next game on Supersonic, and then after that everybody lost on the games they picked. After trading blows for the entire night, it was literally anybody's game on the final game of AFM, but Roy ruled Mars with an iron fist, scoring more than all the other players combined.
