I really think the idea of lowering the standard by $1000 is to destroy companies like American. If they don't counter and lower the prices of Houdini and Oktoberfest, they are in serious trouble.
Oktoberfest - $7400
Standard Wonka - $7500
That's just not fair.
As for people being letdown by the reveal and lack of WOW moments with Wonka, this is how I sum it up:
We were expecting TZ Lawlor, but got RCT/NASCAR Lawlor.
Which isn't necessarily a bad thing. All of his games are masterpieces, but I think people have become so accustomed to being wow'd by JJP that this one was just a few pegs lower on the board. I was the same way when I watched the reveal on a TV...but then I played it. Would really love to own an LE someday. It's a lot of fun, and ultimately that's what pinball is all about (at least for me, anyways)
Quoted from Frogman:What’s not fair? Who makes these rules? Businesses compete with each other. JJP didn’t ask API to enter the market. Stern didn’t give permission to JJP to compete with them, either. Consumers will ultimately will decide what’s important and where to spend their money.
picard-facepalm (resized).jpgQuoted from Aurich:I'm going to make an observation too. You copied and pasted your entire post from another thread, or maybe you copied it from here and put it in the club thread, I dunno. Here's the same fucking text, word for word in the Golden Tickets Inside thread:

Either way it's part of a trend with Wonka fans, you like to spam this forum with the same content all over the place. Wonka wins best game at the the show award? Let's see it pasted into three different threads! (No one really cares about show awards that much.) There's a video with Pat? Link in in every thread with Wonka in the title!
Chill.
I think my least favorite thing about Wonka is becoming the people who are relentlessly hyping it. Before the game was revealed, during the reveal, and now. To the point where you're just literally copying and pasting your push. You've been here 4 months and have 1500 posts, try actually writing each one separately.
I like how you told HIM to chill! That's rich.
