I'm hoping Ellie had a business card for the forum.

I most definitely shared a link. Maybe we'll have a new member here soon!

Right?? I was super excited when I found out.

I am so dumb LMAO. I met two specific new people in the homebrew pinball area, and last night I realized I was talking about the wrong person. The fan I met was from the retro console room, not a pinball maker, though she does think pinball is awesome too.

That could've definitely led to a very awkward conversation with the original person I was thinking of, who is probably not a bug sex fan.

Anyway, the good news still stands regardless, and I hope we gain a new member here.

Funny mix up.

All right, after a long day of rest that isn't over yet, I just wanted to share to everyone that my current WIP homebrew pinball freaking won Best in Show under the New Creations category. I was so freaking shocked when they handed me the award - I've been busy the past year and the machine basically hasn't changed since last show, but apparently people still enjoyed it enough to give it some love. One of several things that really made my Sunday, another being somebody recognizing me from my YouTube channel.

Oh, and I get the feeling a fellow builder thinks my character Yumi is hot.

Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sounds like nothing but wins for an awesome vacation!
