Awesome! I really like the idea of scanning an RFID card to identify players.

Modern pinball machines already do this (not RFID, it's an optical reader for a QR code), implemented by the major manufacturer Stern Pinball. They have internet connectivity to log scores and achievements and tournament challenges and leaderboards. It adds a pretty cool dimension to the pinball scene.
