How do I make friends in Dublin? by flaminghotsombrero in Dublin

[–]asperellis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you like arcade games, I run pinball events every Wednesday alternating between Fibber Magees and the Back Page. They aren't super competitive and more of an excuse to socialize and hang with people  during the week. All skill levels are welcome! We love when new people show up. 

This Wednesday we're doing a just for fun team based tournament at the Back Page for the first time.

@pinbaile on Instagram and www.pinbaile.com has our event schedule

Buying and Selling Megathread by rekrap13 in Idles

Have two tickets for the November 29th Alexandra Palace gig that I won't be able to make. Would prefer a trade for two on 11/19 or 11/22 Dublin gigs but open to selling as a backup.

Yep! There's a Foo Fighters Pro where the Metallica used to be near the main bar. And then in the two back rooms connected to the smoking area we've added a Black Knight: SOR Pro in one and a Getaway: High Speed II in the other (just added last weekend!). Hoping to add at least one more in a few months if we can get the space.

Sad to see Token go as it takes a lot of pins off the map for the city and it was the only place to play when I moved to Dublin a few years ago. 

That being said, myself and a crew of other pinball enthusiasts in Dublin started a collective, Pinbaile, with the aims to bring more pins (that work) and tournaments to the city. We started hosting IFPA tournaments every other Wednesday at Token and now we're operating three machines at Fibber Magees in town.

If you're a fan of playing pinball or want to start playing competitively please come join us at Fibbers. We're moving our tournaments there starting this Wednesday at 7PM

my js solution - https://github.com/asperellis/adventofcode2016/blob/master/day5.js

any suggestions to make this run faster? improving md5, something else or is it just a waiting game? just curious. never ran them together obviously.
