Despite a little of the back and forth in this thread, I'd like the opportunity to vote in the future on what gets made.
If for no other reason than to see what they are lookin at adding to TPA.

WAR F2K !!!

:)

This. Even if FS ignores these results, it was cool for them to allow customers to express opinions. Also cool is the respect shown to this site and its mods by placing the poll here instead of FB or their own site.
Good job all around.

Actually Bobby said it will be like 3 more packs from now. Something like that. Don't remember exactly which one he said it would be. It might have been a mistake but I hope it wasn't. I was thinking like Aug. or Sept.

September would be correct.

The poll is closed. There was a winner, and that table will be announced by FarSight sometime in the future.

I'm sorry, but that is weak. When the poll is closed, the winner should be announced. Nobody should sit on the results of an open election.

Or maybe we should have another poll: Should FarSight tell us who WINS these polls?
or
Let's start a poll to see which table people THINK won the LAST poll.

It's silly. Tell us the winner or I promise I will start both of those as new threads.

FarSight will announce the winning table at whatever time they see fit. As much as the other moderators and I would like to announce the results, it's not our prerogative to do so. It is FarSight's product, they make the announcements. The polls are done here on FarSight's behalf because the forum software provides convenient features for running polls.

And that sort of response is even sillier, so I promise any such threads will have a short lifetime.

Plus, if they didn't keep us waiting, we would be missing out on the fun of speculating the outcome.

Farsight seems to often make announcements on Fridays. So I think we will hear something tomorrow.

I am a patient person and can wait for the results. It's just nice to know that we'll get the table in the next three of four packs.

This poll does remind me of the 2000 US Presidential Election. When we all saw the results of this poll on Sat & Sun; it was like we could see how all the rest of the nation voted, but still waiting for the results to come in from Florida. Monday and Tuesday was like waiting for Florida to get their votes counted so results could be made final. Then the first of April, when we thought the elections results were to be released, we find that there is a hanging "chad" and the results won't be released until a higher body tells us. Like waiting for the Supreme Court of the US to tell us if George Bush or Al Gore won the election.

Such irony is funny. Hopefully this outcome won't be as controversial.

We're actually waiting on users in Florida to vote before announcing the results of the poll ;)

Actually, I got off the phone with Bobby and he said he'll announce the winner very soon (I'm not saying when, so people can't accuse anyone of not meeting a deadline).

Hey I live in Florida! :D Oh wait....I already voted! lol Well I'll be happy on which ever table comes!

Now I do have a question.... maybe PinWiz, Gord, or Jeff can answer. Now that a table is chosen, does that mean the other tables won't show up in the future?

I'm guessing that they will announce the winner in the next newsletter which will probably come out the day the May table pack is released. Hopefully on Friday, May 17.

Flight 2000 won!

From Facebook

"The results are in!

The voting to add a Stern Classic table was very close, but the winner was Flight 2000 narrowly edging out Seawitch.

Flight 2000 features three Lift-Off stages and a very cool maze-like ball lock system. Be on the lookout for this fun and unique Stern table, we'll be adding it to the Pinball Arcade later this year."

I just read the result on facebook and said to myself, "I'll bet there are some happy people here," and went to check. Although I suppose there are unhappy people as well. It's just... people wanting Flight 2K so much. I voted for Catacomb, but I look forward to playing Flight 2K. I'm not sure I ever actually got to play it or only saw it once in an arcade. I think seeing it in person but playing it little or not at all lends itself to an anticipation.

Now that the results have been officially announced, I wonder if the poll results will be made public again?
