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

    I got 24B with Mark's 2-Way Combo strategy, on PC/DX11. Previous high was ~6B. It may not make sense but I felt like I was playing like crap. Spent most of the time chasing EB's and kickback. At 21B I was up to a 175M 2-Way Combo, and (only) a 300M Super Jackpot. Helicopter Bonus was 41M...

    I second what Slam23 said. Also, I don't know anything about the devices in your profile. You may want to ask in the forum for those devices if you can't get it going. Good luck.

    A new app on the way from Stern and Farsight

    Ouch. Worst news of 2016 so far. :(

    First impressions

    I had a nice long 18B game. I agree with what you folks say, but I didn't really get bored because I now have a GTX 770 (thanks Crazy Newt!) and so this is the first table that I played new in DX11, and also the first I recorded to video, both things that seemed impossible. And the recent...

    Is Season 4 worth getting?

    I'm in almost total agreement. Diner and BSD are probably both in my top five, so I might say S3 had an awesome end. :) Edit: Well top five may be too high for Diner but I love it and it's probably in my top 20. I'm actually not sure what my top five is except that Monster Bash is in there...

    Pinball Arcade 12 Days of Christmas 2015

    I think some other posters have said that this and other Christmas news seems to indicate that Season 6 is a go, and that seems logical to me. It might be nice to see if Lindsey can confirm this :).

    Doctor Who Kickstarter

    I'd say I'm in the middle... :) I liked playing it a lot, but I'd probably rather see over half of the unmade WMS DMD tables. The last time I checked, it was #71 on IPDB and #62 on Pinside. This seems a tiny bit high to me. :) When I played it, I used its video mode as the main part* of my...

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

    Feel free to ask anything or comment on anything. I feel bad that I don't (yet) have a FAQ for this. The tables to play are your choice. #1 is worth 100 points on every table (that is counted, i.e., not TAFG, or the SC Assault or JD Super Game), and #100 is worth 1 point on every table. So...

    Pinball Arcade 12 Days of Christmas 2015

    The thing is... promotion costs money, and it's not clear to me that they'd make more money from that kind of promotion than it would cost. Maybe it would... I'm not sure how to tell. I suppose the fraction of the Doctor Who audience that are potential purchasers of its TPA table is...

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

    I've tagged several scores from OSX players on certain tables as glitches. I think many or all happened around August 10, 2015... I didn't record the date when I was making notes. The usernames are drimblewedge, righty59, phonie, cinebxl, kaili, LeasideDad, steve.etchie@gmail.com, and the...

    What's your favourite table you know will never come to TPA?

    Interesting. I could go for a special table pack with a bunch of old EM's with pinball firsts.

    Check that last statement: LYK also has impossible scores on CV and CC, and appeared to have sniped the #1 scores on AFM, BH, CentPk, and maybe more, by having a score like 1,010,010 greater. I've added him to the hackers list. Edit: oops, I didn't read relaxation's edit above before posting...

    What's your favourite table you know will never come to TPA?

    I agree, WCS is probably my favorite of the tables that I've played extensively that seem to be impossible for TPA... though recent events make me want to never say never.

    Tourney 2015-12-14: CftBL, FH, HS, Pin*Bot, SST, Taxi, WWater, Xenon

    I count three (maybe four) factually false statements. Dude, you are making a fool of yourself. Please get a grip. I'm not sure how to call a moderator, so I'll just say @shutyertrap, we maybe could use some help here. :(

    All Right Table Pack #47 Speculation

    - How could they de-license the ROM? NBA stuff is all over the DMD. I think it would be nearly impossible, and certainly not worth the effort. - Farsight confirmed AG Soccer-Ball in the 12 Days of Christmas news. - AG Soccer-Ball has head-to-head play solely because its flipper switches mean...

    I think PC is miles better. But that's just an opinion. Here's a fact: PSN has half the number of deleted scores that PC does. Here are the number of deleted scores per platform in the current TPA_deleted_scores.csv file: 224 ios 122 pc 68 psn 50 android 42 osx

    A quintillion! I've marked it as bad. Thanks for letting me know. That username, LYK, is familiar, but I don't know why, maybe some tournament... I don't have any record of bad scores for him.

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

    Nah, a person gets points for only their top ceil(N/2) scores, where N is the current number of tables, and ceil() is the round-up function. As long as the code works anyway :). This is done to give a bit of a break to people who don't want to have to play all the tables, or who haven't...
