Of the top 50 to 100 ranked pinball players in the world, approx. what % are left handed?
Is the % about the same as the general split between left vs right-handed people?

Don't know if there is any intentional bias one way or the other towards lefties or righties in general concerning playfield layout design, but as a lefty, when a game has a 3rd flipper, I like it better when it's on the left side (like on Tron).
