Did Manson ever kill anyone? (Just so we're clear: the red X on Mr. Zombie's forehead is meant to honor and glorify Manson. Sources: http://www.spookypinball.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/RobZombieFlyer.jpg https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CY9TnV3W8AQS8cF.jpg...

It looks like addiction has set in. I'm rooting for Rob Zombie's Spookshow, because I love Charlie Manson. And TPA doesn't have nearly enough tables that honor psychopathic mass murderers.

Dear Carbon Unit X7-4A0E26-C011 (code name: EldarOfSuburbia): A couple of your organometallic monitors were showing anomalous metareadings, so we unplugged you from the matrix and moved you down your row a few spaces, just to be safe. Your biographical metroids are all reading OK now, and you...

Hmm. I'm hopeful that there's a reason for the quick releases but it's fine if it's just randomness, too. I sure did expect that as SPA got closer, TPA releases would get slower, not faster. Oh well, banzai!

I'd be shocked if it were the 19th. Well, as shocked as I could get about a release date :). That'd be a 3-week span since FTBH, which was a 4-week span since I500, and the total of 7 weeks for 2 tables would be a record. It might even mean something :o.

From the FWIW department, the appearance of EBD in the Steam achievements doesn't mean its release will be this Friday (Aug 19), or even next (Aug 26). I don't have a great deal of data, but it looks like the ach's show up 2.5 weeks before the table is released as often as 1.5 or 0.5 weeks. It...

The web leaderboards for Steam are broken right now. The ones in the game are working.

I didn't think I needed to mention that the camera change was to plunger view because I thought that was well-known, sorry for any confusion :). FWIW, the zoom-out plunger view is the correct one to choose for any table in which (a) broken multiball camera is a possibility and (b) there is no...

Hello Fredo, welcome. I need you to whack someone. His first name is Harley. And leave the head of his motorcycle in his bed or something.

The mirror above the Bonus X lanes went missing on the DX11 version, some time ago, I don't know if it's back.

Do you mean when multiball starts in MB, the camera zooms out for a second, then back? Because if so, that's more of a design feature than a bug ;). The bug is when it zooms out and stays that way until multiball is over. (No, I don't know why Farsight is so stupid about cameras & views, either.)

Sternish bad, Sterno GOOD.

The winner is Nirvana (as always) with Radiohead a comfortable second.

You may be right.

Why not? It hasn't been in a Steam tourney yet (nor has Fireball) so I'm looking forward to playing it.

Hmm, where did that come from? Looks like it's been going on for awhile, maybe two days? Thanks for posting this, I'll have to check it out. I hope it's not restricted to VIPs.

The opinions that are unpopular are actually of TXS and SC... they're rated higher than BK2K. :) TX-Sector is actually the highest rated of all the Gottlieb/Premiers. Indeed, higher than all the pre-DMD Ballys, all the pre-DMD non-Williams tables. Anyway, you didn't mention sound. That's...

Why's that? I was at U. of Georgia when they were having their second dynasty in gymnastics, and Courtney Kupets was there. It seemed like the entire campus was obsessed with the girls on that team, as much for their social and sexual exploits as gymnastic ones. I went to two of their meets...

I had a friend my freshman and maybe sophomore year of college who was on the swim team. I liked her and she liked me and she followed me around and we had a whole lot in common. Now she is in the university's hall of fame and is all over the record books and lists of All-Americans, and I...
