Does anybody have any advice for me on shooting these spot targets reliably? I never did complete this goal on the PHoF: Williams Collection disc, and now here I am again in TPA's Gorgar with all but this one ticked off. Once I managed to complete the third set to light the rotating special...

Another great write-up of this mode/goal was posted in another thread. I linked to both that OP and William Porygon's post in this one in the master goals list.

What sorts of information would really go in a TPA wiki though that aren't already available about the original tables themselves? There's not a lot to know about this "platform" outside the rulesheets to the original games, which are widely available (and in TPA itself). The only thing I could...

Also, Microsoft have been banning consoles for this lately.

That sounds awful. You should look for a better job.

More people will probably be in IRC during the work week from their office. That's about the only time I'm normally in IRC.

Is that the only device you own capable of browsing the web? That sounds like hell. Why do you pay for Internet access if that's the case? You don't have any computer? Ask around to see if any friends or cow-orkers have an old one they're not using anymore. :(

I really wish there were an API to the leaderboards so I could just whip up a website to track our community's scores automatically. I do this for the Battlefield community on my main forum, but the key component I would need to build it out here is missing. :(

Amazing write-up, and it is your only post so far?! Thanks a lot for taking the time to register here just to share this with us. I have linked to it from the Battle for the Kingdom item in our table goals master list for posterity.

I urge everyone to contribute, at least at the single platform preorder level, regardless of the status of your pet bug. FarSight are obviously working hard to address all of our concerns with their limited resources. Let's not let flipper gaps and DLC delays stop us from digitally preserving...

Some dudes are making a Predator licensed table in their garage. There are whiteboard videos up on YouTube. The DMD stuff actually looks pretty rad.

You guys we have Jeff and PiN WiZ now. It's a proper party.

Water's great, guys. Come hang out! I've added this channel to my work day idle config. So I'll be around from roughly 7:30 to 4:30 UTC-5 Monday through Friday if anybody wants to talk some pin. (Or anything else. We're trading youtube song links at the moment)

This is what's so awesome about having a product's developers participate in its user community. This only took 10 minutes and will make a lot of players happy. But how would they ever have even realized their players wanted this if not for reading fan forums? Thanks again, Mike, for being so...

That was never what The Pinball Arcade was meant to be, but the product and community you're describing already exist though, if you're interested in that.

Also true. If you understand how to use two-stage flipper triggering, you might want to switch back to the analog controls for tables with upper flippers.

You probably aren't ready for competitive tournament play then. In fact, I think having to complete all the table goals is a great prerequisite to unlocking tournament mode access on a given table.

Oh wow, crazy. Gotta say I didn't think this would rate high enough to warrant their time. Man, now I kinda want a badge showing that I completed the RBION wizard goals without this feature. ;)

ProTip™: Since pinball flippers are digital, you gain nothing from the analog triggers that TPA uses by default on the Xbox controller. You can go into the options and switch flipper control to the digital bumper keys for a much shorter depression depth and even more responsiveness. Also, make...
