    Awesome work! It would be cool to see this ranking separated on platforms as well. I assume it is impossible, but it would be cool.

    Strategies.

    Trick to always hit the super skill shot. Use Camera 3. Pull the plunger so that two thirds of the round plunger head is above the straight line underneath it (try and you'll see what I mean). Then look for when the plunger is rounded (and not octagonal due to bad graphics). When its rounded...

    Catch a killer-wizard goal doesn't register

    Let's put it like this, is there anyone who have gotten this goal registered?

    Wrote a bug thread about the Catch a killer-WG. Has anyone of you got it registered?

    Catch a killer-wizard goal doesn't register

    I have caught 5-6 killers without achieving the WG. Is it just me? I have taken the taxi ride, shot the phone before the time ran out, had the animation of the killer being caught and had the multiball following that. No WG registered.

    Awesome table, one of the best so far! The flippers seem a bit "slippery" but I guess that is the same on the real table. It's really quite difficult to cradle the ball. Got 16B on my first 5 games...and pretty much did everything that could be done on the table. So, maybe a bit too easy.

    I guessed that was correct, don't like it though. It feels like it is just a fluke shot and not really related to skill. Not that TPA should have done it any different if it was made that way originally, it's just boring in my opinion.

    First impressions

    Given they re-created one of my least favorites I was hoping for a lot since many mentioned this was way different than Black Knight original. I must say I am not too excited though, it is way better than the original, especially the super cheesy 80's music that is awesome. But, the game itself...

    Bug Special resets multiball bonus

    Collecting the special resets the multiball bonus back to 5M. This could be a feature but feels more like a bug (especially since it says Special 0, which is weird).

    10M+ Jackpot Wizard Goal

    Actually, the instructions were quite clear. Jackpot cannot be collected during multiball so one has to go for the cannon awards. And, yes, there is a bug. Collecting the special will reset the jackpot to 5M.

    10M+ Jackpot Wizard Goal

    Is it possible to collect the jackpot during 2-ball multiball or only during 3-ball? The instructions aren't really clear on how this actually works...

    10M+ Jackpot Wizard Goal

    Yeah, that is how it is supposed to be behaving at least. But how is the jackpot really collected then? I just played a game and had about 8M jackpot and suddenly it was back to 5M again - in the same game. I don't recall shooting it up the left ramp or hearing/seeing "Jackpot lit" or...

    10M+ Jackpot Wizard Goal

    I don't really get this goal. I have been able to push the jackpot over 10M but I am not sure if I have actually scored it afterwards. I can't really understand what, during a multiball, that actually lights it. However, at some point the jackpot seems to reset to 5M again without me stopping...

    Black Rose Promo Video

    I have never heard of this table. When it has been mentioned here on this forum I have always thought of it as an old and/or Gottlieb table so I was pleasantly surprised it was a Bally DMD from the 90's (usually my favorites). The question is: Arrrrr you ready to play? (sorry, just had to...)

    Certain kinds of drains that really irritate me in TPA

    iPad1 has it's own unique drain (I guess) that is quite rare but very annoying when it happens. It's the lag-accelerate-drain. The ball is running down towards the flipper, stops for a 1/10 of a second, due to some sort of lag, and then accelerats past the flipper before you have time to react...

    Certain kinds of drains that really irritate me in TPA

    My worst drain is when the ball has a slow bounce just before the flipper and arches just above the flipper and goes STDM. It's quite common especially on older tables, such as Genie. It can be saved by nudging but the thing is that you always think you are going to get it with the flipper...

    So easy and so clever. Of course!

    Should I give up playing pinball games, particularly TPA ?

    I am sensing a disturbance in the force here. Pinball, in my mind, is a game of probabilities and skill. The more skill you achieve, the less probable you are to drain and accurately hit targets. You will still drain, and drain quite often, but your games will become longer and you will achieve...

    Disable Home button

    I am so frustrated (why do all my threads start with that?!)! Had a super game on Gorgar and was already way over my high score and accidently hit the home button while center nudging, it happens from time to time. Got kicked out of the game, usually it is possible to get back if you just...
