    Doctor Who Kickstarter

    I'd say kickstarter fatigue first and foremost. It plagued T2, and I think TAF only escaped it because of how beloved the table is. The pin itself nor the theme are really to blame, as both are likeable. I myself never saw a Doctor Who table till 2 years ago, so it completely escaped me back in...

    Medieval Madness Tactics and Strategies

    I didn't pass the video mode until someone gave me the tip of just staying in the middle for the most part. Don't forget you can use a bomb during it. Also, if you launch 3 cows in a row from the catapult, vid mode won't have babies but cows, and they slow the birds way down.

    Options for continuing TotW

    We are really coming into the final stretch of tables yet to be played in TotW. I have always avoided putting current season tables in, as console owners are very behind and a lot of people in general aren't always up to date. Thing is, we only have 13 tables left before needing to get into...

    BlahCade 40: Musical Eff Chimes, or Arcade Expo 2016

    Usually, if things go according to plan, BlahCade episodes drop on Tuesdays here in the States. 'Backroom' editions, where all my non pinball nonsense gets put, drop between Friday and Sunday. We don't do backrooms every week, and when we do it's at Jarod's discretion since he is in control of...

    New UI Public Beta

    I use my controller, a Logitech f710, and am able to move the cursor without needing a mouse. I do have to use the d-pad instead of the analogue stick, but you can move the cursor with a controller. I agree with the double clicking an icon to play the machine. Right now with it being you select...

    NBA Regular Season

    I'm now rooting for your team to win rather than my beloved Lakers. We need to be bottom 3 so you don't get our pick, but hey if we're gonna suck, let's be number 1 at it! Actually, here's my hopes for the rest of our miserable season: - That Kobe is able to finish the season on 2 feet, no...

    Can't with current UI. The beta UI has it mentioned in the ticker on bottom.

    BlahCade 40: Musical Eff Chimes, or Arcade Expo 2016

    The good news is that in the Fireball/El Dorado beta, there's an attempt to get that EM feel and speed in. It's not 100%, but it is better than in the past.

    The force awakens - two more star wars tables coming

    I think the Rey voice is pretty good. The Finn voice though is way off.

    BlahCade 40: Musical Eff Chimes, or Arcade Expo 2016

    He might of counted the Backroom Edition as #39, which dropped 2 days ago. All that really matters is that 60 of the 65 minutes is pinball. Apparently you people like that kind of thing.

    Do you prefer the new GUI (beta version), or the current GUI?

    But that's just it, they can't add anything more to the old UI. It wasn't designed for that and can't just have an add on put in. The new UI allows them to add a page whenever they'd like. Future items like head to head multiplayer also aren't do-able with the old UI. Simple truth is, it needs...

    Doctor Who Kickstarter

    And I understand that angle. One thing to consider is, all those people that did the higher tier during TAF's kickstarter, already got TAFG, which means there is no motivation for them. This is why a new offer needs to be thought up, and TAFG can be dropped down to lower tier to entice the...

    Do you prefer the new GUI (beta version), or the current GUI?

    Vastly prefer the new UI, especially when considering how open ended it leaves them for adding additional functionality. The old UI is a cramped apartment where you've started putting clothes in kitchen drawers because you've run out of space elsewhere. It might have character, but time to move...

    Doctor Who Kickstarter

    First off, TAF Gold isn't even being offered! I talked with the guys at FarSight this past weekend and made the suggestion as a low tier reward to get people that otherwise wouldn't participate to do just that. The flag I planted is for the idea I pitched, to FarSight. Tell me, how much do you...

    Doctor Who Kickstarter

    I just don't see how putting what is arguably a $2.50 add-on, but what most would acceptably pay $5, into the upper stratosphere of pledges. I also am not a fan of locking out portions of a game so others can have bragging rights. This goes for any game, not just TPA. I feel this way about...

    Table of the Week Club...Week 48: TERMINATOR 2

    We started off this grouping of tables with a Kickstarter title, may as well finish with one! Yep, it's time for Terminator 2, and how appropriate as another time traveler is in the midst of his own Kickstarter with the Doctor Who table. You all know the routine, post some stuff, make funny...

    Doctor Who Kickstarter

    See, this just smacks of a deep pockets attitude. Why can't the little guy ever have nice things too? It's like if suddenly everyone was given a Ferrari, yours suddenly sucks? Only this isn't being given a Ferrari, it's floor mats that came with the upper package Kia model that had the leather...
