    Pool pinball EM games

    Big Shot is a two player version, Hot Shot is the four player version, and the one-player add-a-ball version was called Pro Pool. All the same layout. Add-a-ball was the rarest at 800 units--most add-a-ball games are the lowest produced of the series as they were made for a handful of states...

    Attention Elvira Owners: Upcoming Elvira Signing!

    My wife beat me to it. She sent one of my apron cards off to Elvira to be signed. It cost her $45US. I guess I'll have to get the back glass signed now! (As an aside, I now have signed apron cards for 9 of my 11 games...my favourite way to mod my games.)

    Attention Elvira Owners: Upcoming Elvira Signing!

    Disagree. Auto would look horrible on the lid. Too textured and not enough room to let the signature "flow". I'm torn between apron, apron card, and backglass. I think Elvira charges about $50 through her website. Chances are the show price will be a tad more.

    Just a heads up to everyone who owns EATPM or SS...Elvira will be appearing at the Niagara Falls Comic Con June 5, 6, and 7. A great opportunity to get your back glass, translite, apron or apron card signed by the Mistress of the Dark. There's a plethora of oddball "celebrities" appearing this...

    Gottlieb system 1 display problems

    If I were a betting man, I'd put money on a connector issue. I had this problem with my Totem recently. I wiggled the connector wires at the CPU board and sure enough, the credit display worked again. I re-pinned that connector, and had no problems since. Re-seating the connector when you...

    Do you have a special serial number?

    The last game into the gameroom, a Gottlieb Totem, arrived with an "S" attached to the serial number...making it an early sample game. It has slightly different side art than the rest of the production run. Nothing special, really...just an extra letter in the serial number!

    WPC test report "Error" pics please!

    Big thanks again, Wong. Keep'em coming, guys! These will appear on the Credit Dot Pinball banner, and change randomly with each refresh or unique click. All of these errors put a credit dot on your DMD display...so I thought it fitting it is the first thing you see when you visit Credit Dot...

    EVERYTHING YOU EVER WANTED TO KNOW (AND MORE) ABOUT MICHAEL JACKSON AND PINBALL. Not sure why the caps...I don't even particularly like Michael Jackson.

    Credit Dot Pinball: The Update Thread

    An interview near and dear to me...I talked to Jess Askey, webmaster of the Internet Pinball Serial Number Database (http://www.ipsnd.net), probably the most under-used resource in our community. We get to see how the database first took shape and take a look behind the serial numbers to find...
