I've been interested in pins since my youth and finally bought one a couple of months ago and quickly added 2 more after that. Sure it can be frustrating/challenging especially as I don't have the skill set to figure out all that goes wrong yet. Just me, but I'm finding I like to work on them about as much as I play. In fact lately i've been working more than playing, hopefully that ends shortly. I guess those of us that stick with it consider it a hobby. If someone just wants to strictly play I guess one is just a gamer.
