If a pinball player is at the top 5% of IFPA, then you're spending some big bucks! Money on entry fees, games (both owning and playing) and just practice! I'm glad Stern is doing it.
Does it give me something to shoot for? No! Not at all. A discount isn't the reason why I play pinball. But if I do start ranking that high, I'll be sure to use it!
I'll get flack for this, but... Stern is the only current company making games. IMHO
