    Hey all,

    I have an EM game that isn't currently in the database. I was wondering if there is some way I can add this myself, or if that is done via one of the website administrators? Thanks for your time.

    This can currently only be done by me..
    - To make sure only real pinball machines get added and not flipperless, bingo machine's or duplicate games.
    - Adding a pin requires some "manual" work

    That doesn't mean you can't suggest a new game. Simply send me the required info at [email protected] (name, manufacturer and release date/year are the most important, I also like to get the backglass image if possible!).

    Robin,
    how do we go about getting backglass images added to the existing EM entries in the database?

    Email them to you or can you use uploaded images?

    Hey Robin,

    I know it's not out yet but I was wondering if you could out Wizard of Oz up so I can put it in my wishlist.

    Quoted from way2wyrd:

    This can be done by image editors. Anyone who wants to be can request to be an image editor. It gives you the right to delete images, categorize images, feature images (make them appear on the random polaroids seen on the homepage for example) and lastly set their backglass image. I do expect people who become image editor to know their way around the site and with a computer as this functionality can be rather "destructive" and give me a lot of work, if messed up, to restore from backups. Let me know if you are interested.

    Good idea! Why not, we're fairly certain the game's coming soon - gimme some time to prepare the Jersey Jack logo and add them as manufacturers and after that I will add the game to the database this week
