Default Pinball Nirvana is 9 years old!
I realize that it's April Fools Day but this ain't a joke, Pinball Nirvana (formerly The Magic of Flipperless) was born 9 years ago! I started working on the site in February 2003, with tiltjlp's help the site was opened up on 4/1/03.
Happy Birthday!
A huge Thanks to everyone (posters, leechers, etc., I do mean everyone) that makes the site a success!

Side effect of pinball is keeping people young, in their mind at least!

Congrats to Pinball Nirvana & to all the people contributing to keep it alive & kickin´!

I'd like to thank SteveOz for helping keep PN running smoothly during my 4 year absence. He says it's nothing, but putting up with all the Spammers can be a royal pain.

If it was a top down view, someone could make a lasting re-creation of it with VP.
Congratulations, Jon

Thanks for the reminder JPH. I know we haven't always seen eye-to-eye about everything, but our passion for pinball, especially Flipperless, has never wavered. Thinking back, I'm kind of surprised that TMOF actually survived, since back then, it really was Only Flipperless.

good work, guys! congrats!

without PN, there would only be supermassive VP sites that eventually go nova and then collapse into pitiful remnants, sometimes creating gorgeous but completely useless star-lit gaseous formations and sometimes not.

all the while PN chugs on, the very model of stability, generally unthanked and unappreciated, while thousands of energetic moths habitually collect around the brightest flame. which is the way of nature, and completely normal. so rock on, everyone, everywhere.

Always liked your site JPH, but wish that "some control" could be added. Anyway, it's your site and Happy Birthday to Pinball Nirvana!

Thanks for sticking around JPH! It's appreciated!
