When playing in tournaments on The Pinball Arcade, presently your BEST score is used on each table. If you want to try to improve your score, there is no harm in trying as many times as you want. Do you prefer this, or would you like to see a tournament use a player's LAST score instead...
I'm sorry to report that I'm afraid I've actually found a NEW bug in our old pal Cirqus Voltaire. Not sure if this began in this latest release (3.8.0) or not, but it appears that the judges are now always the same three judges for every game: Adam, Linda, and Keith. It used to be that they...
If you missed Part I of this poll, look here: http://digitalpinballfans.com/showthread.php/8143-What-is-the-best-voiceover-performance-in-The-Pinball-Arcade
As there can only be thirty entries in a poll, Part I of the "Best Voiceover Performance" poll missed out on a lot of great performances...
What is your favorite voiceover performance amongst all the tables in The Pinball Arcade? If there are others not listed that deserve recognition, specify them below.
Given that the clue for Table Pack #25 seems to heavily imply that High Speed is coming (but I hasten to add that at the time of this writing it has NOT been confirmed), and given my propensity to optimistically guess that High Speed, my favorite pinball table of all time, would be added to The...
I'm going with the following Bottom 10:
- Trip to the In-Laws
- Etsy: The Arts and Crafts Pinball Experience
- Syphilis And You
- Road Show: I-5 Between Los Banos and Bakersfield
- Nails Meet Chalkboard
- Actuary Convention
- DMV Madness
- Health Care Policy Wonk Lecture
- Ishtar
-...
With the newsletter hint out for Table Pack #24 and a pretty strong consensus about what it implies, no time like the present to start ruminating about Table Pack #25. With the new Williams/Bally contract extension in place, my hopes for the original High Speed are very high. That said, it...
There is no shortage of threads and posts in these fora on which tables you'd most like to see come to The Pinball Arcade. But, most of the requested tables are well known and very popular. A lot of people champion the high-cost, high-profile, Kickstarter-required licensed tables (The Addams...
Not sure if it's still worthwhile to post bugs to Cirqus Voltaire as there are so many already, and there have been calls to overhaul the whole thing, but I have been plagued by these and I didn't see them on Sean's master list yet:
(All bugs found on iPad 4 / 6.1.3)
- Camera does not return...
Got some happy news. Next month, the biotech company I work for in Redwood City (in the northern part of Silicon Valley), is having their company picnic. When they announced it, they said that the "theme" to the picnic was the "Boardwalk". They'll have the food trucks, cotton candy...
I've seen interesting points of view on these fora about where randomness can be inserted into ball movement physics and where it shouldn't be. There are those who think absolutely every movement should be as regular as clockwork, and those who enjoy a bit of unpredictability tossed in all over...
Device/OS: iPad 4 / 6.1.3
Bug Description: On Goin' Nuts (maybe my least favorite table, but I play every one), I noticed that the single target (near the middle right flipper) that reactivates the upper-right rollunder that relaunches 2-ball multi-ball doesn't seem to work. The three targets...
On Bride Of Pinbot, when you earn a Big Wheel award, the HUD briefly shows the award (if at all), and then goes dark. The HUD resumes functioning normally after the Big Wheel award would have finished displaying. This bug is extremely similar to the bug on Funhouse that affects Mystery Mirror...
There's an interesting alternative tournament format I'd like to propose to FarSight. It wouldn't replace the current tournaments, but would provide an interesting new, additional alternative type of tournament.
The new format is called The Quadrille. On a given table, to participate in a...
I've seen lots of speculation about upcoming tables in this or that monthly pack. I think it's pretty impossible to predict the tables down to a given month like that. I'm wondering about the rest of 2013 as a whole, irrespective of which shows up in what month or what is paired with what...
Would love it if FarSight could re-examine the contrast of the on/off states of many of the lights of Ripley's Believe It Or Not, particularly the Idol counting lights, the Shoot Again light, and all of the lights in front of the jackpot ramps, the shrunken head, and the penguin loop. I...
