I added Aces & Kings and Aerobatics earlier
I added Doozie last night.
Also added Miss-O.
I made a few updates to the site tonight:
http://www.pinballspinner.com/pinburgh
- Added links to Rules on PAPA.org where they exist
- Updated new links to PinTips and PinballVideos - If any are missing please let me know!
- Cleaned up some incorrect links
- Stylesheet Updates, including distinct coloring on available and unavailable links
My goal is to do an update on Sunday, and a final update on Tuesday. Also, a huge thanks to the people that sent across donations! I greatly appreciate the positive attention that this is getting, but let me know if anyone has any other comments.
I tried to upload it, but it rejected document type files. I tried to cut and paste it, but all of the formatting went away. How can I get it into the wiki and preserve the formatting?

Itās āAttilaā with two tās.
But thanks for adding all these notes!
Being ok at pinball /= being ok at spelling things.
@BMU sent me his playing guide and holy crap what a document! Insanely useful. I converted it to PDF and you can grab it below. It has tips for basically all the EMs in Pinburgh, so someone should be able to convert those to pintips pretty easily.
Bobās Guide to Playing EMs.pdf (240.5 KB)
Added Butterfly, El Dorado, Hang Glider, KISS (Bally), Nip-It, Raven, Hi-Lo Ace.
Looks like the advice for the drop targets on Volley is actually for Jacks Open
Very nice PDF Iāll definitely be giving it a read!
Hi Everyone! Iāve made some more updates tonight.
http://www.pinballspinner.com/pinburgh
3.0 - 2017-07-24
- EM Guide/PAPA Rules - Added links to a PDF created by @BMU which contains a majority of EMs, and is marked with āEM Guideā on the listing in place of āPAPA Rulesā
- Updated new links to PinTips and Pinball Videos - If any are missing please let me know!
- Cleaned up some incorrect links
Good luck to everyone playing, and let me know if there are any additions on the source sites the next 24 hours or so!
Great Resource! All you need to add links to the the super-secret-FSPA-tips, and you have everything available for everyone.
Hi Everyone! I just wanted to say thank you to everyone for a great Pinburgh.
It was great in the first round to have all three of my opponents say that theyāve been on the site and were using it. Then, it was terrible to hear that all three of my opponents were now using their newfound knowledge against me, ha.
In the spirit of what @haugstrup shared about PinTips, hereās the graph of hourly access to the site. I guess thereās a bit more demand during a round?
I threw the site together relatively quickly, but my intention is to keep this information up for anyone else who wants to use it, especially the alphabetical listing for any games you might encounter out in the wild.
My focus for the next few weeks is going to be on organizing the <shameless plug
> PinCrossing Summer Classic in Linfield, PA on August 26 </shameless plug
>, but please feel free to pass along any feedback, as I hope to evolve the site ahead of PAPA 21.
Iāll send you my EM update when itās ready. Itāll be a while. Thanks.
Hey Everyone,
I know that weāre about two months away from Pinburgh, but itās never too early to start studying up on games!
I have been working on an improved web interface with a responsive design and am sharing it here. Iād appreciate if people were able to look at it on various different types of devices and let me know of any obvious problems or issues with the site.

Please note that these are 2017 Banks and Games! I have NO knowledge of what 2018 Banks and Games will be, but I want to be able to get the framework of the site up and running so that when games are announced I can pivot quickly to get the site content updated.
I also have a page which lists games that I donāt have information for on some of the key sites:
http://www.pinballspinner.com/pinburgh/machinemissing.php
The missing machine list covers:
Pinball Videos
PinTips
PAPA Rules -or- Bobās EM Guide
PAPA YouTube Tutorial or Gameplay Video
IPDB (all 2017 machines covered)
Pinside (all 2017 machines covered)
@BMU, if you think youāll be publishing an updated version of your EM Guide, a.k.a. āBobās Excellent Guide to the Wonderful World of Electro-Mechanical Machinesā, then please let me know.
I love this resource so much and regularly use it as my starting point for game tips even in non-Pinburgh settings. Thanks for keeping it updated!
Yes, Iām doing an update to my EM guide; Iāll keep you and the folks here posted once itās near ready. So far, Iāve added at least 40 machines and more general game play and technique information as well.
