October tournament

[fromduc]

So now that we know we dont have dinner in time, what about the tourney? Postponed, cancelled, dinner replaced by another table?

 

[DanBradford]

Why are you thinking about dinner at this hour?

Monster Bash
Scared Stiff
Elvira and the Party Monsters
Twilight Zone (again!)
High Roller Casino (so spooky!)
Lights... Action... Camera! (your worst nightmare *chill* lol)

Good luck, starfox!

Wouldn't it make more sense to include Class of 1812 and Gorgar instead of LCA and HRC?

Yes it would, but they always promote recents tables in their tourney, u got to buy it if u want to play the tourney (at least for toping leaderboard). U can be sure you'll have BSD on next tourney even if the theme was women rights ^^

 

[Dedpop]

Women rights theme ?
PHANTOM OF THE OPERA !

LCA is true terror, man. The things I've seen... *shudder*.

I also hooked up my PS3 and bought the tournament tables I was missing figuring I'd slap it around a bit after over a year of not playing on the platform, and it's kind of crazy how different/harder things are than on the PC. Part of it is not being used to the timing with the flipper lag and all, but even so. I have much more respect for people putting up serious leaderboard scores on the platform now.

Well, it's really because u're not used to, if u were i'm pretty sure it's far easier than on PC, except if u use a controller on it.

Maybe it's me, but I find the PS3 version became harder since the megapatch.

I don't know why, but I find the ball has more speed (and too much speed on table like HH and F2K), the ball paths are less predictable, and outlane are way more frequent.

I hadn't played ScS since ages (only one time since the megapatch) and playing it for this current tourney, I find it a little bit more difficult. Outlanes and STDM happens now. ScS is still a marathon table, though.

And, OMG, this crate is so buggy.

I played this past night (until 5AM GMT), and I saw your name on the gold leaderboards (you were on top ten on some tables). I will check this night if your name is still there.

Ive been dropped in bronze since saturday ( posted some scores on friday ), just unlucky with a crappy bugg i guess, i sent an email to farsight today asking if they can fix it and put me back where im suppose to be.
If i dont get a reply or if they are unable to fix it by wednesday then i guess i will have to work my way back up to gold ( not that that will be difficult ).

But its more fun when i have to put in effort to be in the top ten

I checked a few minutes ago... you're still ranked in the gold tier! lol

Currently 66th with 149pts, and you're 15th on CFTBL.

Bugs that only FS has the secret.

Just found out I've been booted down to bronze too! I was actually doing really well in silver (I was in first!)

Were not the only ones, my name doesent even show up on bronze leaderboards ( my score does ) but where my name is suppose to be its blank ( and theres several other blank names with scores )

Yeah its a nightmare! I put hours into the tournament as well, I didn't go out all weekend! I'm not bothering with the bronze tournament. I emailed Farsight too so hopefully they'll be able to sort it out.

I'm so pissed off to have to play this stupid HH again, i forgot it was that bad (and i was that bad at )... at least this fixes the problem of tryin to have ghostbuster on another platform ^^

Anyway, i fixed a couple of solid scores on "technical" tables, but dont have enough time this week to play multiple times the ones which need multiple shots, and i'm so bad on HH and HRC that i dont have big hope for the win, specially knowing a couple of big sharks didnt play for now (Sir M, Touge Killer...).

PS: a pity to have TZ a second time in a row, in 20 minutes i hate this table, i maybe dont have the technique bu it feels like i got to play it again and again waiting for a good LITZ... dont feel to do it again this time, without a beautiful eye ball to win

 

[Morg]

I checked my silver leaderboard and maezun is still listed in first place as well, and on at least Creature(by a margin of roughly the #5 score).

Is it possible that scores posted by people with this bug actually go to the correct leaderboards, and just don't show up correctly locally since it's showing bronze? Hopefully they can get it sorted soon, seems to be a fairly recent issue.

I got the eyeball special ball in one of the first tourneys. I lost the ability to select the ball but it is still on the tables I had it set to. I have gone from Gold to Silver to now Bronze. I was ranked to move back up to Gold during TAF tourney but was moved down to Bronze in the middle of it. Have never finished in the bottom 10%. I use my GF login to play tourneys spoiledgirl83, I know I wont win but motivation sure drops off for me when I cant keep rewards and move DOWN the rankings for no reason.
