Now competitive pinball though, that is different. You have clear defined winners and losers. You are no longer just battling a machine; you are battling a machine and other players. Not just one but three as the games are played in groups of four. At the elite level you need to know these players as well as you know the machines, their strengths, their weaknesses.
