Hello everybody. Jeff Thill is Chicagolands top Coleco player right
now. Here is the write up by Mr. Rich Thill of South Holland Illinois on
his Miniature Hockey League / MHL. I know there are lots of real good
Coleco players and different styles of Coleco games, pucks, nets and
rules. No one can beat the Thills on their beautifully built game's and
MHL rules. Think you got game?? Step into the "Devils Den" Play the
Thills. Everyone walks out a loser LOL!! Dem guys are good!

WRTIE UP BY MR. RICH THILL --->



MHL 2006
 
 
Well, April 8th has come and gone and we've played for another
championship. Jeff Thill has won his 4th MHL cup in 5 years, only
interrupted by myself, Rich Thill, in 2004 by winning my 7th
championship. I also hold a record of being in the championship, 7 game
series, for 15 straight appearances. It used to be fairly easy to win
the cup for me until my son Jeff came into his own 5 years ago when he
started competing in our league. Everything I've taught him and some
things he's learned from other people, and his own unique plays has made
him a top contender on the coleco 5385, 5340, and 5200 which are the
games we play on in the MHL. I used to be the dominate player in the
MHL, but that is no longer the case. Playing my son Jeff is like sitting
in a mirror and playing myself, only tougher.
I've been playing table hockey since I first bought a game at Toys R Us
back in 1970. I've played on a regular basis since then, forming leagues
since 1973 when I returned from my 1st North American tournament in New
York City, where 200 guys showed from all over the US and Canada to
compete. After playing in several leagues that I formed I decided that
we need a beautiful cup to compete for each year like the Stanley Cup.
So, in 1983 I constructed the MHL invitational cup and at the end of
each table hockey season we would compete to see whose name would be
engraved on the cup for that year. I used to play for my own pride and
tried to rack up as many championships as I could. When I had my 2 sons,
I always hoped that they too would have the love for the game that I do.
Well, I got my wish and at least 1 of my sons has the same passion for
the game I do. I think he's proven that by winning 4 out of 5
championships he has competed for in our league. I'm very proud of his
abilities and I'm gland that he's as good, no better, than I am at the
game.
We've always had a vezina trophy in the MHL, and this year I've designed
what I think is a perfect vezina trophy for table hockey. Instead of
getting a trophy each year you win this one only once, and every year
after that if you are lucky enough to win the vezina again you get a
small plaque to put on your existing trophy. The original trophy will
hold 13 dates, and if you should win more than that you need to add a
larger base to the existing one. I'm proud to say that I've hand made
this trophy and will continue to do so as long as I'm able. I might add
that ironically this year Jeff beat me out of the vezina by 1 goal…Can
You Believe It! That's never been done before in the MHL. (One more
little fact about our MHL champ Jeff Thill; not only is he an excellent
coleco player, Jeff has a skill I don't possess… he's also a great
stiga player, which is a talent I don't think I'll ever have-Oh well!)

Our league has been open to the public since 2005 when the CTHL closed
their doors. I offered an alternative league for those that wanted to
continue to play coleco on the same style games except we play with the
small stock nets which I also make, I might add. Our league is located
in South Holland, Illinois in the 2nd story of my home. A permanent set
up on heavy duty hand built games with ice levelers, curved wingers hand
made, small stock sized nets, and automatic puck returns which only
require one puck for a whole 3, 5 minute period game.

In the 2 years our league has been open to everyone we've had top coleco
players come and go. But the two players I'm most grateful to are Jerry
March and Dan Lord, who have come week after week and graced the MHL
with their skills. Dan Lord with his wing to center passes as well as a
blazing slap shot from both sides, and jerry March with his brick wall
defense and a pretty good low tip of his own. Many thanks to both of
these guys for supporting the MHL; we are proud to have you in our
league.
Well that wraps up the 2006 MHL season.
Now, its on to Jim Rzonca's LTHL season ending tournament, then the LTHL
coleco shark tank tournament which Jeff Thill is the defending champ of.
Then it's on to the LTHL US Open, probably the most prestigious
tournament of the whole year for us.

Yes, it's good to be a table hockey enthusiast in the Chicago Land area.

Hey Classic Fans!

There is a chance there will be a Benej tournament in
Vancouver the day after the Vancouver King Of Table Hockey
Tournament. The tournament would be played on July 2nd on the new
Benej table. We would have
two of them available. More info here
http://tablehockeyheaven.com/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?
topic_id=589&forum=18

If it happens then there will be both Stiga and Benej on the Canada
Day long weekend... more info at http://KingOfTableHockey.com and
http://tablehockeyheaven.com/modules/newbb/viewforum.php?forum=18


Also:

I was interviewed yesterday and there is now two videos of
myself on the home page of www.GoSee.TV
These videos were shot by Nick Springate, the same guy who did the
Benej videos on www.TableHockey.com

check them out!

Thanks, Warren

Hey Jim,

Thanks for the information, I think John Power will be joining us in
our Connecticut STIGA League, I'll be sure to talk to him then!  I
also emailed Lordstanley, thanks for your help!

I played some "Bobby Orr" hockey last night with the rolling puck,
what great fun!  I was wondering, as good as the Europeans are at
STIGA, how would they fare on some of our "Classic" boards, eh?
hmmmmmmm....  :)

Dear Andrew,
A very nice essay and right on the money. We all like what we first
played on and got good at.

That said, last Saturday, we had a hockey fiesta in SoCal.

First, Ducks at Kings game, Ducks won and I survived because I was
surrounded by unfriendly (and rich) season ticket holding Kings fans
at ice level (WOW!).

Second, that we had a SoCal table hockey bonanza where we played 46
that's right 46 games! 2 people, and 46 games = 230 minutes of
regulation play and there were at least 10 overtime games.

Third, we watched the 2006 Coleco Classic Finals (taoed in Las Vegas)
which featuring the SoCal S-Slot games. This also marked my
directorial debut (you make a cameo appearance in my video).

So I stagger home the next day being very thankful that my family
understands my passion for this game and puts up with it, and that I
can have a marathon session like this locally (locally defined as
being within 65 miles driving and 2 hours with LA traffic).

What was very interesting was that the TH just got better, and
better and better as the night wore on. Goalies kicked out pucks
with total disdain and stymied the forwards. There were 2 blowouts
in all the games.

All things said, I like the Coleco S-slot game the best. I have made
many modifications over the years that have really improved this
game. I respect all others who have used their skills to modify the
games they play to make them better for everyone, for example Rich
Thill's special nets and chutes on his Coleco MHL games, Jim
Rzonca's lifting table for his CTHL syle games, and Paul Ruiz for
his Stiga net deflectors and other accessories.

You are absolutely right that close spacing does not necessarily
result in a better game. That's why I think that S-shape of the
Coleco 5380 defenseman makes all the difference in simulating the
reality of the game. And let's never compare table hockey to air
hockey or foosball!

good to hear from you,

..aj5380

Hockey, be it table, ice, grass, roller, floor, tonsil, etc. are
all REAL and all DIFFERENT.

If the best th game is the 1 most resembling ice hockey, then
that logic may suggest video games are better still (I think Not
). Munro, Eagle, Coleco, Bockplast and Stiga all produced slot
rod soccer games. In some ways, th is more like soccer than hock
ey. TH is called th for $s (marketing association). Another exam
ple, Air hockey is more like airless ping pong than hockey. Some
air hockey games were sold under the name th.
I love ice/th.  I prefer th.

The slot pattern on the BOS was taken from Munro's final Bobby
Orr/Hull model, but has less square inches; thus, more overlapp-
ing opposing player figures. Which reminds me of my favorite
sales slogan-Orr 75- "1,000 square inches of super fast action".
Stationary Wood games are reproduced by 3? companies. Stationary
players say there better than slot games (I think Not) 'cause
there's no hogging the "puck". All slot games have safe zones.
More overlap doesn't always result in much checking, nor does it
always make for a better game. With more overlap, players will
often play slower, safer style combined with little control -
speed. Whether there's more or less overlap, some skills are
decreased, others increased.
Opponents styles decide play as much or more then game design.

What th game has more or less checking and which more closely
resembles ice hockey (subjective and complex) is laregly irr-
elevant imHo. It is an interesting, thoughtful study though.
I could debate either the positives or the negatives of ANY
high profile game, including my favorite. Most players fav-
orite game is either or both , the game they grew up on and
or the 1 that best suits their style (game availability, en-
dorsement/association are also factors).
Mr. DuBois and I can play different styles, resulting in an en-
tertaining series. TH and ice hockey are just that,entertainment
I'm much more impressed with the level of play and dedication
then of any game or game (business) producer.
Knocking a game , especially on message boards primarily promo-
ting that game, is counter productive for th. Events which in-
clude set feature matchups on different models, would best pro-
mote th and is best suited for tix sales, serious sponsership,
paid TV coverage and th growth imHo.  Andrew

Very cool set of numbers AJ.  Coleco 5380 is the game
for contested ice.  In real hockey 100% of the ice is
contested so 66% is much closer to real life hockey
than what Stiga offers at 29%.  Still Stiga is a very
well designed game when you consider there are no dead
spots,  the size and weight of the puck in relation to
the width of the goalie and thre width of the nets
too.
Still,  I think 66% contested ice presents players
with a game that is more unpredictable in tournies and
leagues.  66% contested ice also means more turnovers
can and will happen in a game.  means puck posession
can not be easily controlled,  maintained and that
every second of a game is better used up by both
players of a game.  Stop time or bust!

This was a scientific study of several table hockey games. The
objective was to determine :

How much of the ice surface is contested space, that is, where 2
players can get to and do something with the puck?

vs.

How much of the ice surface is solo space, that is, only one player
can get to the puck and the other player can do nothing but wait.

Here are the results:



GAME-------CONTESTED---SOLO--TOTAL---CONT---SOLO-----GAME------GAME
TYPE------------AREA---AREA---AREA---AREA---AREA---LENGTH-----WIDTH

STIGA------------29%....71%....556....164....392....32.5"....17.75"

COLECO 5340------41%....59%....694....282....412....34.5"....20.50"

IRWIN PP2--------54%....46%....504....274....230....32.5"....15.75"

COLECO 5380------66%....34%....638....420....218....34.0"....19.00"

Lengh in inches +/- 5% error margin. (1 in. = 2.54 cm)
Area in square inches (sq. in.)
Contested area: Both players can get the puck
Solo Area: Other player can go for a coffee break!

Benej, BOS, Munro lovers, please let me know if you are out there,
somewhere,...I would like to measure your games and include them for
the ACTHF archives.

Happy to see that you are moving forward with what we talked about on

By joining forces with Jim, even though I never meet him, I'm sure you
can't go wrong. I mean just look at everything he has done so far.

Hello everybody. The ACTHF Leaders and some ACTHF tournament dates will be
posted on this site next week. Thank you to Mark Sokolski, Martin Labelle and
Ron Chesick for their support for this federation. This federation will be run
with respect and along the guidelnes of the CCTHF. Its my intent to hold a
classic game event in conjunction with the International Table Hockey
Championships in Las Vegas and the ****STIGA U.S. OPEN**** Stiga tournaments
with the hope that we can get more players in town for larger table hockey
gatherings. Next week i will have much more information. Talk to you soon.

Best luck to the ACTHF.
