Quoted from Anim8ormatt:When your friends won't play with you because they think you're hustling them, but then they do, and they beat you, and you really were trying.
Been there...done that. Ughhhh, I hate that feeling afterwards

you have to slap that bitch around
I really love pinball but I suck at it as well. Besides just putting the time in and watching videos on YouTube, what can I do to get better? I've watched other people play that have this sixth sense about playing, making every shot. I want to be better so I joined a league that starts soon. I feel I'm going to be the worst player in the league but I'm going to have fun anyway. I'll enjoy playing pins I've never got to play before. It's like I need a coach to show me what I'm doing wrong.

I failed to mention my back story. I own a Getaway HS2. Owned it for 3 months now. Before that I hadn't played in many many years, so I'm just now rediscovering pinball. Any tips appreciated.
Quoted from IowaPinballClub:Wait! You forgot one!
You play so poorly that the williams "." on the DMD shows up, letting you know that a switch is broken! Yet it's not, you just play that badly!
