    I just get the feeling that the Season 6 / TAFG tiers were a last-ditch "Plan C". "Plan A" was attempting to engage with Dr Who fans after the initial rush of pinball fans subsided. This just plain didn't work. "Plan B" was to time Dr Who Regen to kick of a new wave... and engage more with Dr...

    TSPP + DE Simpsons fits that quote, too.

    And why not? It's a fun little table. (Also, I've played the Gottlieb Spider-Man, never played the Stern.)

    Doctor Who Kickstarter

    I've just realized, Dr Who fills in the final table from the rotation at the "Airport Lounge" bar at Sussex Uni (I forget it's real name, go figure): - Hurricane - Dr Who - Twilight Zone - BSD - Frankenstein Well, those are the five I remember the most. (Even more amazing given 80% of them are...

    You've already got a drink holder, right? Now you just need a bar to go with it.

    Harrisburg has many, many burrito options. The aforementioned truck is run by one local enterprise (Soul Burrito), there is also Neato Burrito which has half a dozen stores in the area (my personal favorite), there's a decent burrito stand at Lancaster central market (if you want to drive 45...

    Table of the Week Club...Week 50: CACTUS CANYON

    I always wondered what the beer glass target was intended for, since it really doesn't do anything much in CC except play a couple of quotes and pop up. Also I believe there were supposed to be actual saloon doors in front of Bart?

    Ho hum, time for lunch, it's snowing so the burrito truck isn't coming so what the heck am I going to do now?!

    Table of the Week Club...Week 50: CACTUS CANYON

    Yep, this is what I was wondering. How much was taken from the original designers' ideas. That's one great thing about CC that goes unnoticed: there's zero reliance on the toys for the game to function correctly. Drop targets aren't new tech, but popping them up the way they are? That's...

    Table of the Week Club...Week 50: CACTUS CANYON

    Rank determines the value of the Quick Draw hurry-up value (at Marshall it starts at 2M) and the value of Bad Guys during High Noon (at Marshall this is 1.5M). Also getting to Marshall lights the Special in the right outlane, given the relative scarcity of EBs in this game, that's gold. Just...

    You can't time out The Power in Seance just by holding the ball on the flipper and letting the timer count down. Eventually the timer will stop, and you have to register a switch hit to get it to restart. Usually my favored method is to hold the ball on the right flipper, because that gives a...

    Well that $85 tier shook things up. Also, TAFG is valued at $14 not $99, if you think about it?

    Well... Season 6 pass for 2 platforms has some value to me, since I can certainly use 1 on Android and will dump the other on iOS. Also, I assume that they can release those as soon as S6 is live. Also, I'm at $80 already. So it's another $10. Oh why the heck not.

    Master List of Issues Within the PC Version

    I'd assumed you'd re-mapped the flippers from the triggers to the bumpers. That's my default set up. Here's why it's happening: - On all tables that have extra buttons, the secondary flipper buttons are mapped to these extra buttons. For example, magna-save on Black Knight, or the Extra Ball...

    What halftime show? Sheep singing Queen? Whatever will they think of next?

    Well... considering how successful FS's last attempt at a re-skin was... I'm not exactly confident. Also, so many tiers with so many different options? Way to confuse people. It's almost "back at $x level and figure out what you got when the dust settles".

    What is a "ripoff?"

    Well, email Stern and ask them to ask Steve Ritchie what it means, and why Pat Lawlor decided to resurrect it ten years later :D

    IPs you'd like to possibly see turned into pinball games?

    I agree it would be great - but it could never happen, for real. Mel Brooks personally agreed with George Lucas never to create any (real) merchandise for Space Balls, it's partly what allowed him to get away with blatantly spoofing Star Wars. That's why one of the big jokes is that Yoda and...

    1.46.7 More on entering initials with a controller and the keyboard. On tables that have native high score entry (pretty much all the System 11s and DMDs), it goes like this: - You can use the trigger buttons to cycle through the letters. - To select a letter, you must press the 'Select'...
