Hw many tables should be ina tournament

[Advalle]

Do you think that 8 is too much or too little?

I think 4 is a nice number, what do you think?

I think 2 is enough. Would allow more focus and more "unique" tournaments.

I feel bad. How does one modify a poll, hehe

Since we're allowing unlimited restarts, having too few tables means people can just play over and over again until they get a great score. This is what really killed the fun of Pinball FX2 tournaments for me - a single game on some of those tables can take hours as it is, and doing well in a tournament meant spending many hours playing nothing but that one table. With the 4- or 8- table format, I can play a game or two on each table to get them on the list, then work on my favorites to try to move up. I really like the way the cross-table point scoring works. If I don't care for a table, I can put up 70-75 points very quickly, often on my first try. For my favorite tables, I can spend several games trying to get my 82 up to an 83.

3-4 works for me.

How are these 'tournaments handled? Are extra balls turned off? I think that's one of the biggest issues IMO with the Zen tournaments. Most of the time the randomness of the Extra balls being awarded doesn't necessarily even the play field. Again would be interesting to see something happen with the consoles as far as tournaments go.

No, you still get extra balls. But I like the idea of getting rid of them.

Extra balls needs to be off. The tournaments are less about skill and more about endurance at that point since with extra balls I can play indefinitely on a table like Funhouse. The only reason my games on Funhouse even end now is usually because the ball disappears around Rudy.

4 tables, no extra balls, papa rules please.

I have nothing against the current tourney with 8 tables. Take away the extra balls if you like but they don't bother me.

I voted for "Throw more than 10" just because it sounded funny and I had no idea what it meant.

3 tables.
Preferably of the same theme.
