erm, i think this a great site and can't think of anything new it really needs. the design is superb, the stats and info cool, and the map and market place are great features. plus, you have news stuff off pinballnews.com (another great pinball site) . Between this , Pinballnews, and ipdb you dont really need anything else!!

it only needs to be populated a little more by pinballers!! they're either too shy to write, or they're too busy playing pinball!!

oooh, i thought of a new section for you. "people giving away pinball machines for FREE!" that would be a popular section!!! )

hey,

thought of another one. If you're bored and have loads of time to design it....

instead of your pinball karma chart, what about doing an end game DMD style multiplier points system thingie? You could make the scoring stupidly high, say, as in AFM. That would be cool (maybe?)

It's drawing on the pinball theme more than the spiritual belief thing. plus, i've never even had my palm read let alone considered the karma of my good or bad actions!! (mostly bad)

like i said, no pressure. Only if you're bored and have lots of time on your hands though

Yeh, you've got it exactly. a dot matrix showing their score (karma). Sure,you could even give them titles like "grand champ" etc etc, no one likes to be a novice though! that system would be very cool, and alot more relevant to this pinball site.

You could even do different styles (fonts) of dmd dispay too - say, in the style of indy, afm, TZ...you could even go back to 80's games like funhouse, whirlwind etc. I don't know how tricky all this is to do, but it'd be a cool addition!
