There isn't a single facet that exclusively keeps me in.
- Nostalgia: yeah, i do have some very fond memories of playing pinball with my dad as a kid, but never really was heavy into the arcade scene.
- Repair & Restoration: probably the biggest pull for me. I love taking things apart, learning how they work and repairing.
- Playing: I'm not a great player and probably never will be but it's very fun. Tried a tournament not long ago and had a blast coming in last.
- The hunt: meh... i love finding a good deal like anyone else and its always fun bringing home a new game... i do always seek out games that would otherwise be destroyed and try to save them... but not really into hunting.
- Having a game: the house feels empty to me without a pinball machine anymore. I love to play and it's wonderful having a game to play at a whim.... and a project pin to work on as well.
- The people & their stories: pinball has a great way of bringing together people. I have made many great friends in this hobby. As someone who is normally introverted thats really something there.
