As I am a noob, I find it difficult to understand some of the pinball jargon in threads. Would be nice to have a Glossary of terminology as part of a Pinball 101 subforum. Read a few of the threads and pretend you are new to the hobby and you'll see what I mean. Just a thought.

Quoted from tomdotcom:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_pinball_terms

Perfect, just what I was looking for. Can't believe I missed the Wikipedia one.

Would be really cool to be able to take the glossary terms and tag them like the game abbreviations.
