[QUOTE="Slam23, post: 17873, member: 896"] I would like to offer a different point of view concerning access to the operator's menu. While I would like some more control over the table settings, it makes controlled competition potentially very difficult. At the vpforums.org community we have a high score thread in which scores are posted via a screenshot and on good faith that factory settings were used. Then we have usually more than one version of a table, sometimes even by the same author who updated his work a couple of times. So you see ow quickly it becomes a tedious process of keeping track of who scores what on which table. Maybe Farsight could distinguish between locked "tournament"-style tables and free to adjust tables on which made scores don't count towards the high score lists. I must admit that it is fun to play with all the different settings. N Then for the argument of introducing training modes: offcourse you could choose not to use them but they detract from which I think is a core element of enjoying pinball and that is to reach difficult (end) modes through just playing the machines over and over. Just playing the tables can be training, sometimes I play games especially to master a particular shot. Anyway, just my opinion. [/QUOTE]
