[QUOTE="Jeff Strong, post: 279988, member: 3"] Yes, that is correct, but it's sometimes hard to tell for a number of reasons: 1.) It's much more subtle than TPA (which is good because it was way overdone in TPA) 2.) when it's out on the open playfield, the ball barely moves or doesn't move at all (again also a good thing) 3.) when the ball is near a playfield object(s), your nudge can actually send it in the opposite direction you want because of the collision and bounce off the object, which makes it hard to tell sometimes. You'll notice this if you try to nudge when the ball is resting on a raised left flipper for example. If you nudge the table to the right, the ball will bounce against the side of the left inlane and actually move more right instead of left. If you nudge to the left, the ball will bounce off the flipper and actually move left instead of right. This can screw you sometimes if you're nudging to save an outlane drain and the ball nips a post or the top of the sling and goes in the opposite direction you intended. [/QUOTE]
