Did you know??? A small run of Williams games in the 80's began with the leters 'XP' and were a seperate numbering system. It possibly stood for 'Experimental' or 'Expo' in reference to the AMOA Expo.

1/19/2012 - Whew!!
Hey everyone... sorry about the downtime... I had a hard drive fail on my brand new (2 weeks old) database server and oddly, since it was raid, took a lot more time to get fixed than normal. I thought I was going to have to fall back to a database copy from 2 weeks ago, but I managed to get everything back to normal now.

12/25/2011 - Happy Holidays!!
Merry Xmas and Happy Holidays to all 2297 members and other pinheads out there. Thanks for supporting the site and the hobby. Be safe and see you next year. 23, 295 submissions and counting.

11/23/2011 - Site Outage...
The site was down for about a day and a half due to some database issues. The database grew and used up my drive space so I had to give it a little more allocation. Seems to be feeling better now.

10/28/2011 - Logo Contest!
It is time... time for my mediocre photoshop logo to improve, however I just can't do it. I need your help. If you fancy yourself a pinball aficionado AND someone with graphical skills, send in your logos for the month of November and I will post them into a survey where everyone can vote on their favorites. You will get credit of course on the 'About' page and your work will be on display to everyone and something to be proud of. Logos bring demz! Email logos to webmaster@ipsnd.net.

10/20/2011 - Submit/Edit Interfaces Improved
I put in some new functionality on the serial number submission pages and the member edit for that fixed an issue with the Google Map and also took care of some weird things happening if you put in information in a specific order. Basically, I made the photos and location sections work via AJAX which makes it a little more user friendly. Also, another thing that always annoyed me (and slowed the site down), is that the user stats in the login box now loads asynchronously and should always be accurate on your current nudges remaining.
