Never again.

I put up a pic of the label of one of my machines, and they came down on me like a pack of hungry wolves because one of the numbers was a little faint.

They were total a-holes about it, I thought, and that's why...never again.

I would, but all my games are stolen.

They're in the back. The back is against the wall.

I thought about it.....but then I play pinball instead.

Agreed. I submitted a number with two of the numbers switched with the obviously correct number more than visible in the submitted pictures and they jumped on me like I was too stupid to own a machine. I still submit numbers, though. I am more interested in the statistics then their attitudes.

badges??? who needs stinking badges!

I have never heard of it before, but I'm also concerned about privacy. Just read a couple and ya they are kinda dicks about pictures..geez.

I am a card carrying member of the tin foil hat militia, that is why.

It's an NSA operation.

I had a Bally Strikes and Spares with different serial numbers on the backbox and cabinet so I didn't know which one to use. After that it was more laziness than anything.

I submitted a couple but I don't see the point

I used to and have some listed from 2006 but quit doing it after the format was changed.

No interest to me....Pinside is enough

I think it might be fun / useful for people in the future to see where their machines have been. Not so interesting at this point, but imagine if people had been doing this since they were new the fascinating places our games have been.

Years back, I had a 1963 Oldsmobile and I traced the original owner back to another state and contacted the family (the owner had died years before). They were so excited to hear from me that they sent all the original paperwork, repair receipts and manuals that the old guy had kept. It was a wonderful way to connect to the car’s history and I passed all this info along when I sold it.

The voyage of discovery is fun, but would you have enjoyed it as much if you were able to simply find the information in 5 minutes searching the net?

I submitted a serial to see if my machine was a first run Dr Who... but I couldn't tell from the data.

I've also never heard of it until now but probably won't bother submitting them.

Seems fun. Just got my first game (The Shadow) and added it to IPSND. Not sure I'll spend much time on that site but a cool idea anyway.

Only heard about it, but never been to the site. What is the idea behind it? Just for fun to track serials?

I tried to - but the site would not function properly to let me make entries. I sent an email to the owner of the site explaining the problem and never a reply - as such, my 9 games will never be recorded there. That was over a year ago.

If there is that little attention to the site, I won't be participating in it.

Based on some of the experiences I see up above with this - I see no reason to even bother. Pinside suits me well.

Put it on pinside and award karma for participation. I also think it would be neat to see the history of a pin but am also to lazy to enter mine. Like Astropin said, I get close to it and it just sucks me in and I have to play.
