EB-I do have a lot of free time on my hands due to illness. What I find amazing is you guys that work, come home and knock out the "honey do" list, THEN post some amazing scores! About the only things I can put on my pinball resume is, I've completed the "Stiff-o-meter" on Scared Stiff and I...

I've been playing pinball for a looong time, and I'm nostalgic about many of them. While this doesn't have much to do with the OP, those that really enjoy the back glass, my iPad has back glass images culled from the Internet as the slideshow. Look for the ones with the highest detail, and they...

Welcome, KRESS!

This will be viewed as heresy, but I don't much care for "Twilight Zone". To me, it's boring. I've played it a couple of times on TPA, but it has yet to grab me. I've seen all the episodes, know all the toy tie-ins, but...

Most any pinball session is made better with Classic Rock! More than once, I've played IRL and had a juke box jammin' tunes, and when The Wife is away, I turn the stereo up to...eleven.

That is most of a poem by Phil Carcione.

Welcome to the forum!

I just completed the Gottlieb & Stern Challenge. I have no way to compare how I did. Is there a leaderboards for the challenges?

My problem is my reaction time is, uh...bad. I have tried to play it, but I'm just too slow. And changing the ball ain't gonna help that. I told Naildriver I was gonna try PED's, but if I get caught, I'll get suspended...

"Fighting lost causes it seems to be, chasing down mighty giants as windmills face the ocean breeze. Loyal servant by his side, as the attackers in his mind come casting giant shadows on the land. His story told from year to year, tilting at windmills with Don Quixote raising sword." Certainly...

Reboot. Problem solved.

Welcome! This is a great forum to be in. I lurked for awhile then jumped in. If you've the time, explore all the threads. There are a few posters that should have their own comedy shows. Again, welcome!

That's because he was, in fact, Boris Obovitch, a former KGB agent. Obovitch was well known in espionage circles. He would pass along information placed in hollowed out metal balls. Word has it he was playing the Russian president when arrested and sent to a gulag in Siberia, never to be heard...

...of both "Bride of PinBot" and "Gorgar". After I open the app, and select the table, when I press the Start button, it simply boots me out. It isn't a hardware issue, as I can play other Williams tables as well as other tables. Please let me know if you need any further information.

...and this is why I'm only concerned about beating my own score. Yes, I've played in the tournaments, but I've no illusions about winning. I look forward to TPA's release of the head-to-head ability. But I wish there was some way to keep the boards honest.

Nudge do not...become the game. Accept that which happens. Flip if you must. Aim and shoot. But to nudge is to not accept.

Works today, but I swear it didn't last night.

I play Big Shot when I need to relax. It's old school in every way, from sound effects to scoring. And soothing, even when the ball is 'just' out of flipper range. Zero points on more than one ball, in an age where you can score ten million by having a heartbeat.
