* Game list subject to change

* * A note for those participating in the Pinball Olympics: If you have a bye AND are attending the Pinball Olympics and taking the shuttle to get to/from, we plan to give a reasonable grace period (under a half hour) if the shuttle gets stuck in traffic. Make sure to contact Jen or Deborah if this is the case. If you do NOT have a bye and plan to attend the Pinball Olympics and wish to play in Women's finals we strongly suggest having a plan to leave the Olympics by 4pm by car(pool), and to not take the Pinball Life shuttle, as it isn't scheduled to leave the Olympics until 5:30pm. Same rule as above, if players who leave the Olympics at 4pm get stuck in traffic then we will try to make reasonable accommodation. Hopefully traffic won't be a huge issue on Saturday but we want players to plan ahead so they can try to participate in both if that is their wish!
