Pachinko decision board

Drop a marble past the bumpers and let it decide: YES, NO, MAYBE or AGAIN

For decisions nobody can agree on. Lean the board back, drop a marble in at the top, and it bounces off two rows of bumpers before landing in one of four bays: YES, NO, MAYBE or AGAIN. Because each bumper sends it left or right by chance, the middle bays come up more often than the outer ones, just like a Galton board. Relabel the bays for dinner choices, chores or who goes first.
