LE Correspondence
About once a week, I send an email out to our LE subscribers that includes early access to information coming up on TWIP and/or rumors and information that is “not fit for TWIP”, and/or behind the scenes happenings at TWIP and in the industry. For example, I have shared with LE subscribers several titles that are not listed on TWIP as I do not feel like I have enough evidence to list them publicly, but I’ve heard rumors and rumblings that these licenses have been acquired. We do ask you to NOT share this information with others. You also get direct access to ask me any questions you have, and I’ll answer them the best that I can. The cost is $20/month, and REALLY helps support this website to keep it going.
Again, if you’d like to help support TWIP, please visit our Patreon page here, or you can give using the PayPal button below:

Last Chance to enter to win November Giveaways! Two ways to enter:

[wp_paypal button=”donate” name=”My product”]
2. Donate nothing, and send an email to thisweekinpinball@gmail.com to let us know you want to be entered, and include your name, address (including city and state), and email address, and you’ll be entered for that month. You’ll just have to send the email every month to be included.
Please Note
Here is the bad news. Unfortunately, we had to limit the giveaways to the United States, and also need to exclude New York, Florida, Rhode Island, and Puerto Rico. Including those states or other countries was prohibitively expensive and complicated. We’re disappointed too. Sorry!! But you can get all the other TWIPerks anywhere in the world!
The Giveaways
We are going to do a batch of giveaways every month. Below under the “November Giveaways” are all the giveaways for November (that is pretty straightforward, right?). Before we get to the November Giveaways, I want to give a teaser for some of the huge giveaways we will have down the road.
Future Giveaway Teaser
