I was thinking of adding a button for each player that would allow you to shoot something at each other :)

That button like Chuckt posted on another post would make a great button for each player :)
you could make it flash when the user is able to use it?.

That sounds great. It should also be easy to use!

Any time you deviate from sequential consistency, you increase the complexity of the problem by orders of magnitude.

Yes, you're correct!

The PCB manufacturer has shown quite an interest in the project and is making one for himself. It looks like there's very good chance of it all being sold together as a kit.

No silly, it was spontaneous.

By the way... You have got to be kidding me - the coin box took the Grand Prize???? The Super Pong Table didn't even land one of the first place prizes. UUGGHHHH... who are these judges? :evil:

Sorry. You'll get 'em next time with the Super Duper Pong Table with "AUDIO"! :wink:

I agree. The box is cool but not better than quite a few other entries. When they posted the finalists, I REALLY thought the Super Pong Table was going to win hands down. That's what I get for thinking! :roll:

I am beginning to believe that people really like simplicity!

Years ago the music video "Take on me" by Ah-Ha had 20,000 individually hand drawn pictures by an artist. It was nominated for an award (best artistic video) and John Cougar Mellancamp won for "Cherry Bomb". It doesn't always matter who made the most artistic video. It matters whom your friends are!

Speaking of take on me, you guys have got to see this video clip, it is the literal version of the song which means the guy sings about whatever is on the screen at the time - very funny!

Gotta love the 80's! (even though I was only born in 1982 - it was still fun)
