    Hi all

    So, as a hobby OP, I'm always looking for ways to get more people playing pin.

    Does anyone have any tips on starting these TOPS tourneys on recent Stern machines?

    Do you pay out every month?

    Do you find it increases earnings?

    From a players perspective, would you participate?

    Any tips or hints will be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks in advance.

    Quoted from LTG:

    The problem is a great player comes in and pays for one game. Wins 10 games, plays 5 tournament games and leaves. You have to make up $5 added to the jackpot out of your own money.

    Hmm, is that true for the newer Sterns? Is there no way to prevent people from using replays for Tourney games (in software)? Because you are right, it is a flaw, and I would not set them up if this can happen.

    Crazy, sounds like it's not a great proposition.

    I may just spam twitter/facebook, and the first person who claims a GC on one the pins gets $30.
