1/ Hey Heretic ! Please introduce yourself and tell me when you first came in contact with pinball.
2/ There is a pinball renaissance going on, with Jersey Jack Pinball and smaller companies like Dutch Pinball. Tournaments are attractive again because of the organizing work of IFPA (International Flipper Pinball Association) and the WPPR (World Player Pinball Rankings). You don’t have any aspirations to prove yourself there? Or does the fact that you always have to search for pinball tables annoy you too much ?
3/ You are such a good player. What’s your trick? On many tables within the “Pinball Arcade” you are in the top 10, sometimes even Grand Champion! How do you pull this off ?
4/ Do you play a virtual pin differently than a physical table? When playing on a pinball machine, you do things like drop catch, post pass, etc. to control the ball as much as possible. Is this important in the same way in video pinball at this high level play that you do? What is different? How do you circumvent quick drains? Video pins are usually a little bit faster that physical tables, too.
5/ After 35 years of playing pinball: What fascinates you so much about playing pinball? Why did you play so much and why didn’t you stop? And what are your favorite tables of all time?
