I love pinball, I do, but my favorite part about this isn't that it exists. It's why, or the lack of one, in a sense.
I had the opportunity to tiredly stumble upon Mark's display on my way out of a pinball expo. The quality and care that went into the displays move them beyond a learning tool and curiosity piece into a creative artistic expression. There's obviously a human who cares deeply about the exhibit. In this case, he was sitting in the back of the room near a mountain of travel crates, offering occasional encouragement and insight.
The message that I got was, "This is important to me, and I want to share it with you". It was not built out of a CEO's metrics and mandates asking me, "How many dollars are you?". It helped that there was literally a human behind the display, but maybe that same sense comes across via the website as well.
Regardless, it was refreshing. I stayed and browsed the whole display. Thank you, again, Mark!
