It's cool that FarSight does this. I'll be checking back in on day 10-when the important stuff usually starts to surface.

So basically...

Day 1: NOTHING (tournaments always happen at this time)
Day 2: NOTHING (the game was announced to release this date beforehand)

I'm sure the announcements will get better but they haven't been looking too good so far.

I'd prefer if they just gave wacky hints or altered photos of upcoming tables. All the other stuff doesn't really interest me. But I like that they still do it.

Well said, kolchak

I am enjoying it, not having any big expectations and taking it for what it is.

It isn't 12 days of awesome gifts and news. It's just a fun little extra thing they do and I think it's cute :)

With that said, here is what I would like to see (if I was greedy, that is :D)

Warning: The wishes go more insane the closer we get to Christmas :)

Day 3: We have prolonged our agrement with WMS for another 3 years
Day 4: There will be no premiers next year ;)
Day 5: We will see Capcom tables in tpa next year
Day 5: STPA release on Steam and mobile (this is probably the only one of my wishes that we might see)
Day 6: STPA is now out on consoles in the rest of the world
Day 7: Bug day. We have gone back and fixed 12 of the most crucial bugs on tpa. 12 bugs less before Christmas :)
Day 8: Santa's little helpers have been busy getting the Emulation of the early 80' WMS working in tpa
Day 9: We have now given you a spin for your money. Ball spin and a more heavy ball is now in the app
Day 10: The next STPA pack after Ghostbusters will include: GOT, Metallica and Batman 66
Day 11: We have expanded all wizard goals on all tables to include 10 tasks instead of 5. We have also made a whole new set of quick challenges for all tables
that require you to get to a certain goal in a set time frame or on a single ball. 5 for each table, with a gold, silver, bronze award system. Can you tour the
mansion in 10 min, ball one on Addams?
Day 12: Regenerated Dr Who are in, but that is not the news. Because this was such a fun thing to do for us, we have made a deal with Stern and Paramount to
make 6 Star Trek Re-gen tables. One for every series and one for all the old movies

So... those custom balls - are they automatically added for Pro Season Pass owners (like previous ball packs were) or do they need to be purchased?

Actually, the season 2 balls needed to be purchased separately (on PS4 at least)

Anyway, in case anyone is having trouble figuring out which ball is which, (from top left to right):

Row 1: Black Knight 2000, Black Rose, Cyclone, Diner, Bram Stoker's Dracula
Row 2: Earthshaker, Fish Tales, High Roller Casino, High Speed, Jackbot
Row 3: Junkyard, Lights Camera Action!, Party Zone, Phantom of the Opera, Roadshow
Row 4: Safecracker, Starship Troopers, WHO Dunnit?, Xenon, Addams Family

They are all in alphabetical order (except for Addams Family). Weird.

Ahh, the one Gary Stern said was coming to TPA what seems like eons ago. Hopefully we'll see it in STPA-lots of fun, and one of the last IRL tables I got to play in good condition.

Yes, they will be automatically added If you purchased the Pro Season 3 or 4 pass, they will be unlocked. They are included in the Pro Season Pass entitlement.
