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

    Thanks for clearing that up invitro, I did recall that there was some nuance to this issue but couldn't remember what it was. But we do agree on the fact that there are TPA videos out there of gameplay with unbelievable non-tilt nudging? To be clear: my position is not necessarily that iOS is...

    Lord of the Rings Kickstarter [Speculation]

    Devil's advocate: Is there something to gain for Stern to do back catalog games digitally? They won't sell those real tables, so brand exposure is the best they get out of it (and maybe a few bucks as you said). On the other hand, people probably will stay interested in the app depending on...

    Lord of the Rings Kickstarter [Speculation]

    I was just kidding :) The name still feels Frankensteiny to me in any case.

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

    On PC vs. iOS I had some prolonged discussions with VikingErik about the differences between PC and iOS and it seemed that nudging on PC is easier because there are multiple levels to it depending on the length of keypress (I do this from memory, can anyone on PC confirm this? Is the same true...

    iOS - Bug High Speed table always download

    Maybe buying Getaway will solve the problems then? That would be an evil ploy by Farsight to get you to buy both..... :) It's a great table though!

    That's a good idea, maybe he can join a podcast/blahcade?

    What is it about side-buttons that make pinball feel like pinball?

    :) I had my share of moments in which I tried (or felt the urge) to nudge a real machine by pushing on the playfield glass....

    Lord of the Rings Kickstarter [Speculation]

    Those are good questions, but I haven't seen any definitive answers yet, just a lot of speculation. I do believe that licenses expire after a while and have to be renegotiated. In other threads there was concern that Farsight would have to pull tables from earlier seasons if their licenses...

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

    Well I was eyeing that top 15 with a good score and position on F14 Tomcat, but then Dizzer2012 shot up the chart like nobody's business! He had an unbelievable month for sure, so congrats to him (or her :) ). PC and PSN are dominating the chart, don't know if that reflects user base or...

    Pro Pinball

    Well, I met Adrian last year at our yearly tournament (DPO Dutch Pinball Open) and can honestly say he's one of the nicest guys I met. Totally unassuming/modest and himself a big fan of pinball. I don't know if they got in trouble somehow and/or didn't communicate enough if that's the case...

    Lord of the Rings Kickstarter [Speculation]

    Well, with the Stern app anounced, it could very well be that no Kickstarter is needed. It's not yet clear if the app covers the back-catalog of Stern tables and if so, if all tables are automatically covered. I'm not very knowledgeable about license stuff, but Stern may have to renegotiate...

    What is it about side-buttons that make pinball feel like pinball?

    If you interact often with a machine, the brain incorporates it in our body scheme. It's the same with driving your car: no way people could drive (and park) safely if the car was not an extension of our body. Just see what happens when you borrow or get a new car, it feels strange and...

    iOS - Bug High Speed table always download

    I had that problem but it went away for some reason. I'm not sure but I may have deleted the table first and then redownloaded it, after which the problem was solved. When it did display this behaviour, starting the table also crashed the app. It only showed the black screen with the start...

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

    The top score for F14 Tomcat came just a few days after my own top score, and was made by Dizzer2012. To be fair, this score could be entirely legit, although I found it quite hard to pass Tarek's score which was in the order of 30K difference, and Dizzer just passed me with 1K. Oh well, it is...

    Feature Request: Categorical Listings of Tables

    Good idea. How about an IPDB link in the table profile?
