					<description><![CDATA[Overall, Keith Elwin and the Team have done it again! If I had the bottle caps for it, my wallet would be out of a Premium Edition. 

Fortunately, The Pinball Capital will be getting a Limited Edition soon to join their 130+ other pinball machines. Thank goodness, I can put my capless wallet back in my pocket and play it there, where it will likely be available in the Grand Champion Lounge.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[This happens to me OFTEN. Each time I do it correctly it feels like a magic trick like, "OH! I did it right!". Then I have to remember that I need to make a shot soon afterward. That is, if I can't catch it on the other flipper so I can have a chance to THINK.

Either that or the flipper doesn't move AT ALL, and the ball just drains. Or, I have to desperately flip the ball away in a late attempt to save myself.]]></description>

Then me giving subtle disdain to "Tom Sawyer" showing on screen as I think about the orbit shots that the mode starts with ... and how the "shot watcher" hates me when stacking Tom Sawyer mode with multiball. Then me realizing this is NOT the Tom Sawyer mode, it's just the song choice. Then, me wishing I really could start "Tom Sawyer" by selecting the song on the plunge, ...]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Here's another one I had the privilege(?) to observe live. 

Raymond Davidson is charging his way toward taking over first place in this game of Iron Man. 

He is ramping out, taking down Bogey awards along the way. As he reaches the boundary, the pinball has other plans.]]></description>

In the future, many will misremember this match as the Grand Final. It was only the Quarter Final round! 

Before this match concluded, Multiple Time World Pinball Champion Daniele Celestino Acciari had already fought his way through the other side of the bracket to clinch his seat in the Grand Final.

There, he waited for his eventual opponent at the top of the mountain.]]></description>

The pressure builds as the shots count down to what ends up being much less of a victory, and much more of a relief.]]></description>
