Mobile tournament starting Feb 27

[Gus]

Tables:
The Addams Family®
Lights, Camera, Action™
Whodunnit™
Black Knight 2K™
Diner™
Dracula™
Fish Tales™
Black Rose™

7 tables from Season 3! I wish we got Highspeed instead of LCA, and HRC rather than BK2K, but it looks alright to me. Some really cool tables in there. I do look forward to another round of Black Rose
What do you guys think of the table selection?

 

[DA5ID]

Up and running on iOS.

Really like the table selection. Good luck everyone.

Huh, in my tournament, it's TAF Gold instead of standard. Sweet.

 

[HOW]

Seems my scores are not being registered

Mine are registering in everything but Diner so far. Going to try another Diner game later.

 

[Crooker]

Can't believe I just walked into the BR glitch and screwed up a pretty good score. ARRR! I should know better.

 

[pinballchris]

Yeah, not sure what is going on, the next Diner score registered, but the next TAF score did not. Guess it is score at your own risk.

 

[Flipperdeflip]

The tournament only lets me play the Gold edition of TAF on my main account, but when I log in with another name it only lets me play the normal version. Scores of both logins are registered on the same tournament leaderboard.
I don't think that's very fair, because my scores on the Gold edition are always much higher than on the normal version.

 

[Crooker]

First score on Diner was a no go. Second one looks like it went thru. Weird stuff.

 

[HOW]

Mine 'seem' to be registering...albeit delayed...

I've not played half of these. Not played TPA in a while.

Found little time for a long time to participate, few runs done to all to the tables, semi decent scores so far, easy to notice that I haven't played some of the tables for a long time. Little funny picks for tournament, WhoDunnit can be so random because of that roulette, I don't see that it's actual pinball-skill to win (or lose) randomly even several billion points. Also Black Rose is so one shot wonder that it's presence on the tourney lineup can be questioned. Otherwise I like the lineup, it's actually quite hard to decide best tactic to some of the tables which is quite refreshing. Time limit is the biggest concern, this is the only place where it must be taken into consideration. Anyway, all the best luck to all, my goal is to finnish top 20 in Gold, secondary don't want to drop down to silver

Btw, I have owned TAF at some point but can play on weekly basis three of these tables. It's fun to compare real and simulated game, I suggest to try if possible for all of you!

Oh, btw, I had "not so funny" bug in one FT game, I was able to start multiball (for the second time after getting super jackpot) but at that later multiball jackpot was not able to shoot, even with hit to casters club, all the sound quotes tell to shoot the left orbit but the jackpot light wasn't on, only that "lite jackpot" on the casters club. Haven't seen that one before...

Roulette like Teed Off Skins. IMO takes away from the game, although Skins requires a pin shot.

I told myself I wasn't going to bet roulette, but just got 4 minutes into a game with 1.5B and the roulette bet came up 1.5B on black, I took it, lost and reset game, lol.

 

[Crooker]

Gus. You're killing man. Lol. And I mean that in 2 different ways. In scores and spirit.

If Gold is giving an unfair advantage, it can't possibly be that big of one. I'm horrible at pinball (don't nudge enough), in second place (not counting Failsight) for TAF & don't have Gold. Do we know what the prizes for this tournament are?

 

[pinballchris]

I will say I actually enjoy playing Whodunnit (and to a lesser extent- Diner and LCA) in a timed format, The Addams Family, not so much.

That sounds like something you would say right before sweeping in and crushing me. I'm on to you!

I'm torn about Whodunnit. I think it's a really cool theme and a nice table. The TPA version (outside of tournaments) is too grind-friendly with a repeatable extra ball unfortunately. In tournaments I can see the Roulette wheel being a problem.

 

[Gus]

Pharo's 97M on LCA, that's got to be a bug right? What a crappy table LCA is btw. I'm not playing that again...

 

[Annorax]

I'm torn on Whodunnit because the current version is affected by the plunger view bug that was a problem with STTNG a while back; start multiball & can't get out of the plunger view or flip the right flipper until all balls have drained.
