I've had some decent back and forth with some of the mods there about how the moderation can be pretty slanted
well technically everything but winchester is still available.

As Jack Burton says, pinball is all in the reflexes ;-)

Now all we need is Kyle Smet's BTILC homebrew to be made into a commercial pinball machine (for all of us to enjoy)!

PS: Thanks to @kineticist.com for the heads up on this awesome looking homebrew! twip.kineticist.com/p/too-spicy
not sure about this one! off the top of my head when thinking about something like a widebody vs a standard body or something giant like herc, the ball just has more space to travel (so takes more time) before it interacts with something on the playfield
Huge thanks to the 3 folks who upgraded to paid subscriptions to This Week in Pinball over the weekend! That leaves us just 10 new subscriptions away from reaching our goal for the month.

Subscriptions start at $25/year, but most choose $60/year.

Scoops aren't always our thing here, but we've got one today after checking in with Pedretti Gaming about the Big Bang Bar remake rumors and their Pinball Expo plans. Subscriber exclusive!

Big Bang Bogus?
What's Going on with Pedretti Gaming and rumored Big Bang Bar remake?

that's an awesome thought, thank you! digital ocean is prob the only thing that could replace which is pretty cheap. webflow can self host but to do so would compromise a lot of the features we use. noting this just in case though.
