I tried to search thinking, "No, there is no way there is anything here in Sweden". But yes, just a few kilometers from my house there is a new arcade where private people put up their flipper games. Members only but anyone can become member. There was also an old one I had forgotten about.

You can scroll around once you have found one location, the map only updates if you click the checkbox on the left on higher zoom-levels.

Mabe one solution for this, without putting too much demand on the server would be to cluster the map points and deliver just the coordinates of the clusters until you hit zoom level 12 or so?



We hope to do some clustering like that in the future.

We're also going to turn on that "redo" checkbox by default (except still disable when zoomed out too far).

> Members only but anyone can become member.

We only list publicly-accessible locations, but "public" can be very very tricky to define. This place seems to count because anyone can become a member (so it's basically equivalent to paying an entrance fee). There are also some members-only places that open up to the public once a month. I consider those to be barely public.
