You're right with the bonus. There's an exploit similar to TAF and sometimes the bonus total reach more than 9B. Solution is it to tilt every bonus or never get a Bonus X which isn't easy in a longer ball time. I've played another 117B game with success.

I've played a 55B game today that came as 15B only. Anyone know a secure way to count higher scores? I can't find a solution in this thread. Is it safe to never rollover with a large bonus or a score >1B like in CftBL?

That's what I mean, useful to start an exploration. Maybe I do not hit the spot with my english sometimes. :) I always try to reach The Dawn of Time and The End of Time at least once at the start of a game. Otherwise it's difficult to get all possible EBs. Unless you're a good video mode...

Yes, the timing is strange. Yesterday I was at 1000 points and from the tournament clock the end must be 7 hours later. I had no time to play in the last 4 hours. When I came back home late in the evening (GMT) I saw that I went back to 990 points and thought the tournament was over. Now the...

You can't control the Big Guns back board game, it's pure gambling. A small ball is shot into a few lanes. Maybe a nudge change the result but it's impossible to control the board game.

Thanks for the flowers. The big difference to other TPA tournaments was the short time. Every try needs only 2-3 minutes to decide is the game worth to finish or should I restart? I believe that's the reason that I was able to beat your 10 day scores in 2-3 days. Otherwise I would have never...

Yes, that's a timeshock feature and very useful during explorations or other timing modes. Happened to me too that I press both flippers in TPA when the ball is in the bumpers after a few timeshock games and wondered that it does not work. :) Another great feature for explorations is the ability...

Thanks for the tip. I'll try it someday. That should be a good explanation for the scores. At the moment I believe a 5B only score is very high for this table. A leaderboard reset would be a reason for me too for a TotaN comeback. It was never one of my favourites IRL, in TPA I began to like...

I've played this table after years today for the SGDQ MLPINBALL TPA Tournament and must say it's very buggy and has bad physics compared to later TPA releases. Another bug I always got is the camera freeze during the skillshot. And the leaderboard looks strange. I would say at least the first...

The only really interesting goal in BoP is the Billionaires Club, all other are peanuts. Maybe I would drain in case I've 4 EBs stacked...

I saw the tournament announcement a few days ago and thought this was a local tournament during some pinball expo. Can I play from home? Does it work like the regular TPA tournaments? The MSI gaming laptop would be nice to play TPA in DX11. :p Hmm. :eek: not bad, not best...

Both are very good S11 tables with a great sound. And Farsight waste time with Big Hurt. :confused:

It doesn't. Only one Backdoor Billion per game...

I've tried Zaccaria a few hours. The UI and the configuration options are great but I don't like the tables. Only played Farfalla IRL a few times 30 years ago. There's a very very big difference to the good old WMS tables. In addition I'm not satisfied with the ball physics. Maybe some day I'll...

That's a lot billions in the first hours. It's nearly impossible to calculate the time for a 100B game. My 99B took 3 days, played most of the time but not all. The billionaires club is luck only. I had a long period with only one time every ten billion. And 4 times in the last 10B. :)

No, it's the same. Meanwhile I can start DX11 but most tables are unplayable due my hardware limitations. No problem for me. From what I've seen I must say the DX9 design is much nicer than DX11. The lights are too dominant in DX11. Just my opinion...

Don't know whats the problem here? You can assign any controller button for the left and right nudging. Doesn't matter for me, I play timeshock with the keyboard...

The table is fun for a few hours. That's the point. It's way too easy. I finished the game after 6/7 hours with ball 1 and four EB's stacked. That's enough for a provisional first place. Beat me and I will play again... :p I guess there's no 100B rollover problem.

I can confirm this bug. Doesn't worked for me. How many minutes to wait? I got this multiple times and the only solution is to tilt the ball.

My Steam profile is set to privat since I own TPA. It was my first Steam game and I always try to configure software as privat as possible. Same goes e.g. for Windows 10. May thats not needed for steam, I can't overlook all steam features until now. My playtime isn't a secret, I've posted the...
