+1 for other factors.
I try to play all my machines (and I don't have a lot of them) at least once a day. I love pinball and the machines are for my enjoyment and I am not worried about keeping them in museum condition (though I do take really great care of the machines 
).
Quoted from JWJr:I met one of those guys once at an Expo, at the bar waiting for the room to open. He had a photo album with pages and pages of pictures of two long immaculate rows of wedgeheads. When I asked him how many games he played in an average day, he looked at me like I'd just asked him how many times a day he porked his grandmother.
My machines work for a living. They were all meant to be played.
In a similar vein in one of the times I met Frank Miller and we were at a comic con he saw somebody with a Sin City comic book rolled up in their back pocket he yelled out "See? That is what you are suppose to do with a comic book. Read it and roll it up and re-read it. Not wrap it up and put it away."
Or something like that.
But in keeping with not telling others how to run their hobbies let 'em turn their pinball machines into shrines if it gives them pleasure.
