[QUOTE="laughing_lunatic, post: 27081, member: 597"] We ALL do to start with. But along with what Jeff and BonzoGonzo said about the importance of learning to aim well and hit your ramps and targets, nudging is an integral part of the game. And essential part of the game, I'd say. During (for me anyways) a good, high scoring game, I'll save a drain MANY times during the course of the game with nudging. Delicately, of course, a little nudge goes a long way. If you go nuts with the nudge stick, then yeah, a tilt is in your future. It's an ongoing thing for me. For instance, I SUCK at outlane drain saves. It all seems to happen so quickly, generally, that I have no time to react. That's where being proactive comes in. I tend to nudge to avoid, or get a ball away from slingshot etc, being as they are a huge outlane drain risk. Medieval Madness is a nudge fest for me. With the well documented flipper issue, it has to be. Edit: Also, learn the tables well enough to know where your high risk shots are, lamp posts on ToTAN, Castle gate on MM etc. and either try to weigh up the risk/reward of taking the shot, or as I usually do, take the shot but be ON the nudge as soon as you need it, which is usually 1/1000th of a second after making the shot. Learning to nudge completely opened the game up for me. [/QUOTE]
