[QUOTE="Edan-Grossman, post: 140548, member: 1989"] Thanks Kolchak! There were plenty of pins that I either never played before or only few times. Since I'm part of the Free State Pinball Association (FSPA), a lot of our league members were very knowledgeable about those games and were able to explain their basic rules, shots, and strategies for those games to me. In addition to that, I would take a minute to read the rule cards before I plunged and payed very careful attention to my opponents, and watch for how the ball bounces and identify the source of the drains and the dangerous shots. The FSPA also had another resource that helped me out A LOT on those unfamiliar games. I can't tell you what it is just yet, but it will be open to the public sometime in the future (we decided to keep the beta private to us for Pinburgh). I handled most of those games very well along with some silly mistakes that I made and could have easily avoided. Another interesting fact is that I own an F-14 TOMCAT and mastered that game in my home, but I completely bombed on their F-14. Could practicing on my own machine have hurt me on theirs? Overall, I was very happy with my performance, I had a great time and I am looking forward to playing in (A or) B or C division next year. [/QUOTE]
