Hi all, been lurking here a while but this is my first post. I wanted to share that I am starting a pinball website called This Week in Pinball (thisweekinpinball.com). I plan to post weekly on Mondays, and the post will include noteworthy happenings in the pinball world, such as new games/rumors/mods, production and coding updates, pinball show reviews and announcements, results from competitions, notable pinball streams/videos/podcasts, etc., along with a game of the week, website of the week, and a monthly challenge to be entered into a drawing for something pinball related.
The plan is for each weekly post to contain short readable summaries, a snapshot of whatâs happening since it is getting more difficult to keep up with everything. I posted the first weekly post this morning at thisweekinpinball.com.
If you have anything youâd like to be included or see something I miss (which Iâm sure will happen), shoot me an email at thisweekinpinball@gmail.com. Thanks!
Hey, looks great! I really like the concept of doing weekly summaries. Maybe you want to share a little more about you? Who you are, what you do, how you became interested in pinball, etc.? Or is it a group who is hosting This Week in Pinball?
Thanks for the nice feedback. Iâm just a guy that loves pinball, played in college (lots of Funhouse), then got back into it about 3-4 years ago when I randomly met a pinhead, and it completely snowballed from there. Bought a few pins, learned about fixing them, joined a local league, and started listening to all the podcasts and reading up on what was happening. A second hobby is learning about web design, and combining the two I got the idea for TWIP.
I could email, but I will just put this here. Generally, I donât think Dominoâs and Jetsons should be considered Spooky games. They are contract games, so it is similar to calling MMR a Stern game (but not exactly). You might want to indicate this somehow in the upcoming games section. Jetsons is a The pinball company game.
