Hi Dave. Your OCD can't be that bad or you'd be calling it CDO with all the letters in the proper order like they belong. Seriously it's an OCC... Its a condition, not a disorder and welcome to the club. Hopefully your pinball knowledge is better then mine, cuz I could use all the help I can get.

I've been around for a while and have met a few of you at Starburst and Allentown; done deals with a couple of you. I'm another Scarborough guy, practically around the corner from Brewmanager.
I bought my first game about 10 years ago, Data East's Batman. Since then I've picked up a few more. I like rock and roll and comic books, you may notice a pattern in my current game list..
GNR
Kiss
BIBLE
Nugent
Elvis
Tommy
Batman
Dolly Parton
Rolling Stones (Bally)
TSPP
Wizard!
Captain Fantastic (although it's haunted and is never in working condition for very long)
Rock (major project. Good: it powers up. Bad: just about everything else)
Trying to figure out where to fit Metallica, Spiderman and the Dark Knight.
And that's me.

Tom,
Welcome aboard! It is great that Walt (Brewmanager) and I are not alone in Scarborough after all.
Nice to hear of another collector in this part of the world. Cheers.

HI all.. I just found this forum the other day so I thought I should introduce myself before lurking too much. I'm from Winnipeg and purchased my first game last year (HS) and have been hooked ever since. Love everything the hobby has to offer and am glad to see there are a lot of helpful people on this forum. The only thing I regret is not getting into the hobby a long time ago!!!

I realized I haven't introduced myself here yet. I'm Ben and I currently live in Timmins Ontario. I was born and raised Southern Ontario near the Guelph area. I can't wait to get back down there so I can be more involved in the pinball community, specifically TOPL.
I bought my first machine this year from a member on this site and I couldn't be happier. I've learned a lot since I've purchased it and I can't wait to get my second.
I just might be the resident enabler in Timmins (mwong watch out!), as since I've purchased my machine only a few months ago, I've corrupted 2 of my co-workers. One of them purchased a Williams Firepower, and the other bought the Black Rose that was listed for sale in Kapuskasing on Kijiji. I've got another co-worker who is also being tempted as we speak.
I am in Southern Ontario on a regular basis, and I hope that I'm able to come play some pinball with a few of you guys in the near future.

I'm Chris and I've been sober since yesterday. 
I enjoy walks in the park...... just kidding. There aren't any pinball machines in parks.
Its mwong168's fault that I'm here.
I'd basically say I'm from Brampton, my family lives in Cambridge and I'm out between Ottawa and Montreal in a town called Hawkesbury. I have a couple of pins. Life is good.

Anyhow, welcome.

I am Colin. I am a fan of pinball, mostly early 90's DMDs. I also love MMA and I sell Real Estate.
I'm pinball.customs, aka "REVOLUTION", aka Brock.
I created this account to keep my business antics and my PBRev administrative duties separate. Hopefully it doesn't confuse anyone! I just don't like advertising my parts sales under the "Revolution" account as quite frankly, that's not the reason I created this board (despite the belief of a choice few from the north east). And no, I will not be referring to myself in the 3rd person.. that's just weird. :lol:

Hi,
I am an overseas member... living in France, near Bordeaux. Soon 48.
Been playing pinball for 40+ years, but collection pins for only 2. Currently have 7 pins at home and patiently waiting for my Quetzal Captain Nemo and Predator. Will send pictures when they come.
My problems with pins is that I love them all, from EMs with short flippers to LCD display games... Oldest one in my current lineup is a 1966 Gottlieb Masquerade.
I have limited space (who doesn't??) and many pins in my wish list, so have to rotate my pins.
Pins no longer at home: LOTR, Zaccaria Black Belt, Space Mission, Star Jet, Road Show... and I forget a few.

I am a new member to MAACA and to Pinball Revolution. I may be the only pinless member on both of these webforums.
In a million years I never thought my wife would agree to me having a pinball machine in the house, but she did. That's when my excitement started to build. I recently visited the Grand Opening of House Of Targ in Ottawa and had a great time. I had forgotten how much fun it was playing pinball! I've had a great time reading through the posts here and there (Maaca) and seeing some of the projects and rebuilds everyone is doing. There is such versatility in this hobby and it's just cool to be around like minded individuals that enjoy electronics and modding. The pinball community has been very welcoming even to a pinless novice like myself.
Anyway, I'm glad to be here and I'll be lurking in the shadows for now. I'm still saving up my money for that very first pin. What pin? Unsure, but I think I'm coming close to making a decision.

Welcome guys!
Seems PREV is picking up some steam.
Hope to see more of you here and hope you enjoy it.

Hi, I'm new here.
I've been playing pinball over 40 years, and collecting them for the past 10.
Though I am not living in Canada, I'm in a border town, just west of Windsor, Ont.
I've met a few nice pinheads from Canada, and hope to find more.
Along with a couple good friends, we started a pinball league, that has been going for seven years.
