Message: <blockquote data-quote="Matt McIrvin" data-source="post: 27091" data-attributes="member: 590">The thing that makes nudging hard, in real life or in TPA, is that if you're nudging to prevent a drain, you have to do it long before it's obvious that you have to do it. So the key thing is learning the table well enough to know that the ball's going to head for the drain when it's still at the other end of the playfield.I'm still pretty bad at it. But the case I have been able to make some progress with is the one in which the ball fails to make it up a ramp, comes back down and falls straight into the center drain. Many tables have a ramp like this (Medieval Madness and Monster Bash, definitely). Gorgar has, not a ramp, but a similar situation with the spinner lane at the upper right. The thing to do is to train yourself to recognize the situation right when the ball starts to fall back down, and give the table a shove while the ball is still coming down the ramp. But it's extremely situation-specific. If you don't know the table well enough, you're as likely to shove the ball's trajectory into the drain as out of it.</blockquote>
