    Quoted from Azmodeus:

    Pinball is not simple. Real life even intrudes, it seems.

    This is why I wouldn't even attempt my own machine.

    I thought I wanted to build one early on and subconsciously knew it would never be done. To convince myself of this I thought I would try to tackle the sound part. Bought this Sparkfun board.

    Hooked it up and it worked great. Next to get the loop sound. Since the pin theme was (and always will be...) Behind the Green Drop Target I got some actual stupid music that plays in the background while the camera captures two people trying to procreate. Like cheesy elevator music but much campier. Got that looping great, then thought about the callouts. Gave up.

    Bravo to those of you that get father than me.
