Quoted from jorro:

maybe ask this guy to build you an arcade , will save a bunch of dollars!

He’s not making them anymore.

Quoted from Waldo:

I’m a huge Tron fan and I always hoped one day to re-create a Flynn’s Arcade in a basement man cave, complete with Secret Door entrance.
The project has gone way over budget so on a whim a friend said I should start a go fund me page for it. So here is my go fund me page. Obviously there are much more important campaigns out there you could contribute to, but I thought maybe some other Tron fans / old school arcade fans would love to see this through and heck hopefully stop by to play someday!

Waldo two questions:

1.What are the tiers of donations, and awards? Does someone get 24/7 key access to the basement arcade if they donate $5,000 for example?

2. Is this a ‘All or nothing’ project that will only be funded if it reaches its $75K goal? Or do any funds accrued go to pay for your basement arcade?

Any updates? Or answers to my queries?

Quoted from pinlink:

Dude, he is not going to respond to this thread anymore. I'm sure he's embarrassed.
Also why do you care enough about your "queries" to bump the thread again. Just let it go.

I’m curious. I suppose I care as much as anyone else here posting about Pinball games on the internet would care. It’s one of the more amusing threads.

Quoted from delt31:

hey thanks to jones I was able to read about this absolutely ridiculous request from the OP. You think you've seen it all and then this thread pops up. Holy __balls. OP - is this go fund me.com or go tell me to go _ myself.com? Sorry - but this is beyond crazy - it's actually offensive. Sell your expensive pins and stop taking money from others.

Happy to accommodate! Hilarious right? One can imagine the OP creating this topic, going to bed, dreaming about money rolling in for Flynn’s arcade, and waking up to this miscalibration. I wish the topic creator well, but it does come across a bit tone deaf.

Quoted from pinmister:

Did the OP disappear? Is this just a troll thread?
Where's Waldo?

No idea, but his go fund me is still up!!

Quoted from Rdoyle1978:

THEN you announce a second game with no actual playfield design but some basic playfield art. Maybe you create a cabinet or two with said art. If you pull the wool over two companies and then find a sugar daddy who’s looking to stash some cash as a tax writeoff, because “Pinball is easy” you’re home free!! Let’s just hope jPop’s new benefactors aren’t wiseguys..

Looks like the strategy. I see some Flynn on the horizon
