The end date to the tournament has been fixed. It ends on Monday. FarSight probably didn't bother explaining the rules because they are the same ones that have been on mobile and PSN for over a year now. They are... - You have one week to post the best scores you can on 8 different tables - You...

Which is why Mike gets my vote for "Hardest Working and Most Willing To Put Up With Our B.S." award and art dept isn't even in consideration.

Yeah, I don't think there will be any actual announcements in this format of question and answer. It's an opportunity for FarSight to respond to what's on your guys' minds. However, we will get to talk directly to him in August and I suspect that if there are announcements to be made, they will...

Specifically? Tell me your concerns.

African or European?

Well we haven't done this in a while! If you have any questions you'd like to ask Bobby King or anyone else at FarSight, now's the time. We will be accepting questions from now until July 2nd. The BlahCade will then forward our favorites and the responses will be read in our July BlahCade, #20...

My biggest complaint with Big Shot in TPA is that it doesn't play like an EM. They are much, much slower in ball speed. The flippers normally would struggle to get a ball anywhere near the top of the playfield. And the slingshots are half as powerful. Instead what we have, and this applies to...

With Central Park I don't think they are actually viewed as "extra balls". To me it's that era's version of multiball, where the point of the game IS to get more balls. I tend to agree with the 'you don't even realize you got one' view of extra balls in Big Shot.

Unfortunately I can't insert your scores after the fact. Still, you can easily see how you would have fared. Next month just be sure to post your scores into the provided link between the hours given. Hope you had fun all the same, and if you ever have questions, there are a lot of friendly...

Oh I don't know about that. I play with a controller. I like rumble feedback :)

So did having the tournament open as soon as the groupings were posted work out better for people? Is that a keeper for future tournaments, a 23 hour window?

We just did! As soon as the groupings were posted, the tournament went live. That means there was a 23 hour window for play. Seems it went smooth, so we'll try it out again next month. Sorry you missed it, by one day no less!

Okay, all results are posted! In the end, we only had 3 players not report scores, for a grand total of 37 players. Congrats to Switch3flip and lazmama who tied for 1st place, and Gus (again?) for his 3rd place finish. Gus also has a pretty solid lead on first place for the season, but 2nd and...

Welcome back to the Table of the Week, where this week we will be playing Big Shot. Or as I called it in the BlahCade Podcast, Big Nuts. Celebrate the fun(?) that is electro mechanical pinball. Even better, new flipper physics have been applied to this table, or so we're told. Discuss those...

One hour to go, still missing 7 scores. johnnyray14, Moirjb, FlippyFloppy, ccl78, Buzz1126, Extork, switch3flip make sure you log them in, guys.

I get almost as much a thrill hosting it as I do playing it. It brings a lot of us forum peeps into contact with each all in the name of fun, and I'd like to think it has affected the mood around this place. I certainly find myself recognizing more names and their personalities when I view...

Hey folks, when scores are posted later, please double check them. I've already been alerted of one, and I spotted another where they flip flopped the score. I don't double check them against what you post in this thread, so unless I am told or it clearly stands out as wrong (in this case an El...

I don't have any provisions for that set up. Maybe for second season, but I'd have to check with Xanija to see if that's even possible with our tournament software. Will look into it, but for this season you're just gonna be haunted.

I didn't. Let's just say with only one score missing from our Diner group, so far I've put up!

Well, our nudging is the same as PS3 and Xbox. And actually it's a tournament for everyone to play with each other since you can't do that anywhere else :D It was born from 2 things...one is that I can't stand the grind fest of the week long official tourneys. Two is it being an extension of...
