    We need an actual incentive to buy Pro Mode

    Personally, my incentive for buying Pro mode is so I can go into the operator menu and turn the EBs off once I've gotten the hang of a table. On some tables I'd be going all day if I didn't... :rolleyes:

    Nudging Overpowered?

    Turn on the screen rotation lock, and play with the table upside-down :D

    It's so easy to inadvertently go from crappy play to outstanding and back again...

    ...but that's what I love about Pinball. Currently in the middle of a game of Whitewater: Ball one, missed No Way Out, ricocheted off a lock target, screamed SDTM. Ball two, lost control fairly quickly, fumbled the ball trying to slow it down. :mad: Ball three, collected EBs for replay...

    First impression

    Yeah, I've been having a lot of fun with the jump rope, very neat feature, feels like it could be it's own separate token-munching ticket redemption game at the arcade. :P But I've seen the ball act a bit funky on it, wobbling around without falling and seemingly phasing through the rope a...

    I'd Buy That Table - An Unofficial Poll

    Wish there was an easy way to sort the results by number of votes. No surprise Addams Family is leading, and I'm happy Indy Jones is in the #2 spot... it looks like a fun table and I've played the real-life version (quite poorly) a couple times. While I do appreciate licensed tables...

    Your Top 10 Most Wanted "No License Issues" tables for TPA?

    Jack*Bot Fish Tales Red & Ted's Road Show Earthshaker High Speed Cyclone Whirlwind Jungle Queen Bad Cats Diner Can you tell I favor a games from a certain company and a certain era? As for the one that doesn't belong, Bowen makes it sound so fun to knock monkeys down all day. :p

    so is this table especially high scoring/easy?

    This isn't the hardest table by any means, but I wouldn't really say this table is easy. For me, the game plays very similarly to Pin*Bot, in that the ball finds the outlanes very easily, and I often get a frustrating amount of quick drains, but once I get on a roll I can keep it going for a...

    Request Tournament mode for each table

    I'd also love tournament mode settings to be available. With extra balls and other normal settings, games on some tables can last an absurdly long time for skilled players like myself.

    Lyman's Lament

    Okay, thanks for testing that out. I probably won't be able to play the new tables for until sometime next week; my controller's battery holder broke so I won't be on until the rechargeable pack I ordered to replace it comes in the mail. :(

    Goal For Future DLC Acheivements

    I'm hoping they switch from Top 5 to Wizard Goals. Beating the lowest default high score is so easy it really isn't even an "achievement". I'm skilled enough to knock off the wizard goals and I want to show it off, darn it!

    Android - Bug Monsters of Rock Champion and Monster Bash Champion scores re-set

    Actually, the same goes for any high scores apart from the main lists on any table. (Party and cannonball champ on CV, multiball madness and all the various shot champs on MM, etc.) The game doesn't save any data for those, so they stay at the default values every time the ROM is reset. It...

    CV Tactics and Strategies

    Okay, thanks for the reply and explanation. I don't know what other factors might influence when the ringmaster gives up (Long time without draining any balls? Surviving at the higher recovery speed long enough?) I generally played my battles trying to keep at least one ball in control...

    CV Tactics and Strategies

    Strategy for milking Ringmaster Battle for all it's worth: At least in the ROM version TPA is using, the speed that the Ringmaster re-strengthens himself seems to be dependent only on the closest you've gotten to winning the current battle. Always intentionally allow him to strengthen once you...

    Bug 10 Billion Point Rollover

    It wouldn't go on your high score list at all. When the score rolls over, the ROM more or less subtracts the amount of points needed to roll the score. As far as the programming is concerned, a score of 1,000,000,010 would be recorded exactly the same as a score of 10, or any other score of...

    Bug 10 Billion Point Rollover

    Exactly. As Mike mentioned a few months ago, they can't really fix the rollover for local high scores because the emulator uses it to set the table's high score list when the game is loaded, and it would wind up screwing the whole list up: The only possible solution I could think of is to...

    Lyman's Lament

    I didn't grab it during the short time it was up unfortunately, but I wonder if the known software bug to get the bonus payout from using the code in a multiplayer game unlocks the goal or not.

    Wizard goals unlocked all tables

    I thought this was kind of easy, if you're deliberately trying to get it. Get the ringmaster a hit or two away from completion for one of the ringmaster multiballs, then start highwire, juggler, or strike an arc. Once you stack the ringmaster on top of it, get the balls trapped on the...

    The Scoring On This Table Is Terribly Unbalanced

    I agree. The much harder to achieve Backdoor Billion is a great award for great play, and I don't think most of us would have major complaints about the scoring being unbalanced if it were the only billion point award the game offered. But the standard big wheel award that comprises probably...

    First ever game on Bride Of Pinbot. 10b and still on first ball.

    I have to agree this is a pretty easy table. Only played a few times and already have all the wizard goals complete and a high score of 7.676B. I probably could've gotten even higher if not for a combination of getting careless and the right outlane deciding to kick me in the nads (seriously...
