    Hey all,

    Just something that for some reason has been rolling around my head for a while. There seem to be a wackload of games out there that have more than two flippers. And it always seems that these games have an additional flipper on the right. I have a WhiteWater; third flipper is on the upper playfield on the right. Flash? Same thing. The Shadow? You better believe it's on the right. Roller Coaster Tycoon. Simpsons Pinball Party. High Speed and High Speed 2. Twilight Zone. Addams Family. All of these games have a third full sized in a VERY similar location.

    Long story short: I won't say I have a huge amount of experience with pinball; I've only been at this for a couple of years. But other than Tommy, I can't think of any machines where that flipper was dropped on the left of the playfield. What gives? Maybe it's because I'm left handed; maybe it's because I seem to be getting a collection of games where I shoot the left orbit with the right flipper, then bang out another shot with the upper right flipper. I don't know. Just me rambling. Thoughts?

    Hey,

    Well, leave it to the interwebs to prove me wrong . And oddly enough, I looked at some pictures of GNR for some reason right before I posted this. Not sure how I missed it. Well, now there are a few machines I can put in to throw some variety into the thing...
