[SKILL_SHOT]

[dach]

Correct from the mobile tournament; it's been awhile since I sat on em

 

[SKILL_SHOT]

dam! there was a mobile tournament after the PS3 one and your already getting your prizess and were still waiting for something other than a message asking what country were in weak!

 

[Mayuh]

Ouch!

 

[shutyertrap]

I think us PS3 owners are gonna be waiting until the next update in July.

Show us your balls

Pinballs ... I'll be specific to be safe

That's a lot better than them giving you blue balls..

Ok I know custom balls were prizes from this past tournament but what are they supposed to look like? Just red and green with some marbling? I just browsed under my extras menu for a table and I have a whole bunch of custom balls, thing is I have never purchased any. Were any included in table packs or something?

There were quite a few custom balls that were added free when they added the feature.

I've got all the balls!

Start with the gray one (that's actually chrome in the game - the default ball), and tap right (in iOS - I dunno what's different on other platforms):
Copper with reddish stripes,
Gold,
Jungle camouflage,
Silver with thin black stripes,
Dark red with black marbling,
Bright green,
Cyan,
Happy face,
8-ball,
Red/gold marble pattern,
TZ ball (dunno if this or the eye is TZ, but it's silver with thicker black stripes),
Borg ball (kinda grayish green pattern),
Federation ball (bright blue with silver logo),
Another Star Trek ball (red with black logo on white circle),
and The Eye.

AFAIK, the last five are prize balls and the rest are stock.

I thought the tourney said they were gonna be the Star Trek & TZ custom balls for top 500, plus the eyeball for top 200? Are the ST:TNG & TZ green & red? I think i already have a green & red set. And if i select purchase custom balls, it tells me that ST:TNG & TZ plus the eyeball are available for purchase. And how do you get notified that you can use them? I havent received an email yet...infact, i did not recieve the last newsletter either.

Edit: ok i see that im supposed to have a red & green one, i was typing while DeeEff posted...

TZ ball (dunno if this or the eye is TZ, but it's silver with thicker black stripes)

This is the TZ ball. It's the Spiral design. Compare the ball to the center drain area.

Duh; so maybe these arent the prize winning balls I thought? I had never noticed I could use them before and thought they all had to be purchased.

 

[Kemetman72]

Dang ER you took my joke! The Star Trek balls and Twilight Zone ball are available to purchase on the PS3. I just wonder if they will ever sell the eye ball. It would be nice amd come up with a double blueball set!

 

[Bowflex]

The eyeball has been for sale as long as they've offered ball skins.

 

[David Pannozzo]

Aren't they giving away Red and Green balls a little early, we still have about 5 or 6 months until Christmas. It should have been some kind of Summer ball, maybe yellow and orange mixed together. I just want to say Merry Christmas to all the Red and Green ball winners, later guys.
