Do you tinker more than you play?
(+_+):
I've considered joining C.B.A. (Cab Builders Anonymous) myself. If you do a wiki search, you'll see that it actually does exist and is considered a disease. ;)

Definite tinkerer. I thought I would play a lot more than I do during the never ending building process however most arcade games are SO repetitive, they do not appeal to me for more than 5 minutes.
ahofle:
LOL I just don't understand you people who don't play the games. I still find myself playing the games 4 years after building my cabinet. I mean if you like to tinker just for the sake of tinkering, I would think auto repair or furniture building would be much more constuctive. :laugh2:
That's not to say I don't enjoy tinkering (just swapped out CP artwork and put in an arcade monitor, currently tinkering with MAME video settings). But I always find time to enjoy some classic gaming goodness.

I don't tinker with my existing cab too much - it's just a proof of concept. The next one will probably be hold the ongoing project status.
I'd play it a lot more if it didn't immediately invite my 3 year old to want to play with me. I love showing her how to play games but it gives me little chance to enjoy my cab. Then Leprechaun. Not too fun for me.
I'm reliving DKJR right now, and I'm tired of explaining the whole Mario history and why the poor ape is locked in a cage.

I've got to admit to Tinkeritis (new word) I spend more time adjusting and tweaking my Cab and friends cabs than I do playing.
But some weekends we'll have a gaming session and play most of the night.
Guys night out.
Working my way thru the 194X series to get my score up.
