    First impressions

    I believe that if you have gotten everything you can reach within 10-12 games, it is too easy or at least too easy to "conquer". This goes well along with being too shallow in its rulesets, and to some extent with Wizard Goals. For example, Cueball Wizard has its 1/2 billion shot that is really...

    Bug PHOF doesn't register

    Playing on iOS. PHOF won't register at all. When I complete a game (get a new high score) it won't show either.

    First impressions

    Best (modern) Gottlieb so far, but that doesn't really say too much in my book... I liked it though and was pleasantly surprised, there were a few fun things to do. But I quickly (5-6 games) cleared pretty much everything there was on the table so the longevity of it is poor I think. Why didn't...

    Thanks, but who is Gord? I can't find that username.

    Changing user name

    How does one do to change his username on this forum? I would like to have the same name as on the leaderboards (but not change that screen name).

    Going for the Genie 3M has improved the rest of my scores

    Well, nudging the ball away from slingshots is just an earlier way of nudging the ball from the outlanes. Many of the outlane drains I find it difficult to nudge-save since a nudge in the right direction can make the ball bounce of that wall and drain anyway (as is common in the left outlane on...

    RBION Tactics and Strategies

    I don't really see how the C-lane can easily be hit, I end up in A 60% of the time C 30% and B 10%. Someone mentioned it needs to be lit, is that the key to consistently getting C-lane?

    Bug Missing ball, unable to continue

    The problem of scoring high on this game is not so much about actually getting the points, it's avoiding the game breaking bugs along the way. I can't bother anymore, if it isn't the ball missing bug it's the other (bonus related) one.

    Going for the Genie 3M has improved the rest of my scores

    I put some hard time into getting that Genie 3M goal about six months ago and finally got it. It wasn't just a relief but the lessons learned from that horrific table has made me about twice the player today than I was. I go back to tables I haven't played for a while and easily break my old...

    Bug PHOF not awarded for 100M+ points

    I recently scored 111M which gave me a place in the local high scores (on top but as "11M"). It didn't however score me any new PHOF points. This is a known bug, right? I mean, I have seen similar things on other tables when you pass certain scores (like 10B on ToM). Is there a "trick" to...

    Junkyard Impressions

    Regarding the PHOF-points. For you (on Android) that get really low PHOF-points, what were your factory set high scores? In the 100k's? Mine were 500k, 400k, 300k, 200k, 100k which was kind of weird.

    See PHOF leaderboards (on the web)?

    I recently found out you can see the leaderboards on Pinballarcade.com, which is awesome because my iPad1 can't load them (memory crash I guess), but is it possible to see the PHOF-leaderboards somewhere as well? I was pleasantly surprised to see that scores that does not "stick" in the app...

    Missing the sewer is a evry dangerous shot that will lead you to the right outlane. However, nudging twice (causing a tilt warning) always saves it...

    Junkyard Impressions

    That is odd... I quite easily got 1.000 PHOF the game after my previous comment, something around 220 M I think. This game was super easy, but I really like it! It's a fun theme and I like the slightly chaotic artwork. The only thing I can complain about is that once you get into that "Start...

    Junkyard Impressions

    Looks great and the game play is fun. What about the crazy low high scores and super easy PHOF-levels? I made it up to around 300 PHOF points on my first five games (about 30M). I like this more than the other way around though (Cactus Canyon).

    Table Pack #27 speculation

    I think the main problems with Gottliebs is that they generally don't have great game logics to them. It's like they have no real idea how to big a complex table with great build-up rules etc. like Bally/Williams are so great at. Also, the idea of putting flippers at almost random spots is...

    (An attempt at) The top 40 TPA players from leaderboard scores

    Very interesting. I typically target the following, in this order: 1. Goals 2. Factory set high scores 3. PHoF-points 4. Leaderboard - basically because on my iPad1 I can't access them without crashing the app. Still got a pretty decent scores on both counts but it's kind of annoying as well...

    Request Some tips and tactics please

    Basically the tactics on this game as I do it: Strategy: - Start by going for the top drop targets. The lower-right drop targets will be hit by random ball movements anyway. - Most of the time, if I don't get an extra ball on Ball #1, I reset. Sometimes, I continue if I have at least gotten...

    Bug 10 Billion Point Rollover

    Managed to get 9.6 B soon thereafter but tried actively to keep myself under 10B. Is this bug constant? I mean, is it simply impossible to get a score over 10B registered? How about PHOF-points?

    Bug 10 Billion Point Rollover

    I just got 20.1 Bil. I actually had 19,98 Bil when the ball drained. In hindsight I should have tilted it but I really didn't think this would happen. Got no high-score, no PHOF-points, nothing...my 2nd best was 7.4 B so that kinda sucks!
