    Licensed Top 100 IPDB/Pinside Tables still remaining

    Playing-time wise, I go JP>Tommy>>>TFTC. Of the three, I still like JP best because the sound system is so damned loud, and I was able to play a well-maintained table in a quiet location on a regular basis. Tommy and TFTC were not so well looked after in a noisy, smoky, student bar. Context...

    I'm still in Silver .... 4 out of 8 tables played, 3 #1s and a #2 so far.

    Too easy tables (PC version)

    Add Whirlwind to that list - a table where it's not even safe to plunge the ball. Yeah part of it is the inconsistency of TPA's manual plunger, but in this case, it makes plunging a risk. Personally I think WW is the best-implemented table in TPA. Not necessarily the best-looking, but it...

    August TotM Groupings and Results

    There isn't one - start of a new season, so no ranking of players in round 1.

    The Getaway - Video Mode - Shift?

    Check in your keyboard bindings, Up/Down will be the keys bound to Left Flipper 2 and Right Flipper 2 - the same buttons you use for Magna Save in Black Knight. Space works because it's the default plunger and the gear shift is also the plunger in HS2.

    Historical Fact Of The Day

    2 out of 30 so far. I vote for a Prince pinball next. Plenty of scope for toys.

    August TotM Groupings and Results

    We're allowed to play EBs on Central Park, right? Makes sense to me. Even with the full 20 balls available those games whiz by.

    Tips and tricks

    The timing on the orbits gives you enough time to catch the ball, especially repeating the left orbit. Live catches are very easy to pull off. Since orbits advance both Freeway and RPMs, continually repeating left orbits, breaking only to start Red Line Mania, is ultimately the only way to...

    Icon in iOS still says safecracker

    Not iOS but Android... but my phone and tablet both have the same updated version of TPA, and my phone has The Getaway icon, and my tablet is still Xenon. It's not the only App that constantly changes its icons where old ones are still lingering. Honestly it doesn't bother me as long as when I...

    Just pick the "Tournaments" option from the main menu and follow the prompts. You get max. 20 minutes per game, with no limit to the number of games you can play on each table. If you've not played before you'll start off in the Bronze level. Top 10% get promoted from each tier.

    I'm in. Voted for Party Zone as PU/SU, though it really doesn't matter in this tournament does it?

    Fluke

    I'll often get a really good score the first time I play a table, then suck at it for a while as I actually learn the rules and what I need to be doing and chase goals.

    I'm eager to see if I got promoted to Gold after all. I'm going to say "no" and not worry too much because there should be 6 or 7 promotions from Silver this time around and 3 of the top players are already out of there and up in Gold.

    Frank Thomas' Big Hurt baseball

    I like the fact that one of the awards/modes/whatever on the playfield is called "Steal Home". Because stealing bases was not exactly what Frank Thomas was all about. I think someone was designing this table and was just told to make it a "baseball-themed table" and ignore the abilities of the...

    Version 1.41.x

    Possible it was 1.41.8 and 1.41.9 rolled up together? I've a hunch 1.41.9 is a patch to 1.41.8, and 1.41.8 is a big update.

    What is the Matrix? "Dog", spelled backwards. Just one of many in the multiverse. No, size 11, pretty normal. 4, but I think you knew that already. Here, poke your eyes out with this sharp stick and get back to me in the morning. Last time I checked, Elvis Grbac, the former San Francisco...
