IM is good for everyone. Beginners love it because it is fun, intermediate players, like myself when I got it, get anxiety about having in their line up, but love it because it is fun, but hard and makes them such a better player and pro players love it beacuse it is hard. How is that possible? Ask Borg.
Like Nike says "Just do it" and dont make excuses that you dont want IM because you like deeper games because it scares you. Even so IM will make you a better player to beat those deeper games anyway. Beat them! No kidding! So don't root for the Cubs forever and play LOTR or TSPP over and over not reaching your goal. Play a game like IM over and over, play better and be the Red or White Sox and win Cubs the friggin Series by beating that deep pin!
If you play pinball you are in the club. If you want to own or own IM well.....
