[QUOTE="Captain B. Zarre, post: 214712, member: 2355"] It's time to talk, finally. Sorry I haven't discussed the tourney for a while, but here we go! The tournament was score based and contained 9 tables, each of which I'll describe: - High Speed: I'm amazing at this table on Pinball Arcade but not at all in real life. Target score was 550k and I barely got up there at all. - Rack 'em Up: I've never played this Gottlieb table before so I wasn't surprised when I didn't get to the target score of 300k at all. Wouldn't play it on location, lots of unforgiving drains. - Iron Man: My first good table of the tourney. Target score was 20m and I reached it in 2 balls. It's all about stacking War Machine and Whiplash! :) - Algar: I saw the PAPA gameplay video for this one but did terrible at it when I actually played it. Target score was 550k and I didn't get there at all. - Genesis: Failed at this table too, hadn't seen gameplay of it before and didn't know what to do. Backglass is ugly, I do not know who the hell thought it was a good idea. Target score was 1m. - Indianapolis 500: I did too good at this table for not ever having played it! Got to the target score of 150m in one ball thanks to a ton of Loop-Turbo Combos and an awesome round of Turbo Multiball, with 5 Jackpots scored! :) - Bobby Orr's Power Play: Did OK at this one, but wouldn't play it again. Center target is useful but causes a lot of air balls that scare the crap out of everyone. Target score was 400k - Transformers: I also did good on this table, as I reached the target score of 28m in two balls. Activated Mudflap & Skids / Optimus Prime Multiball stack for big points! :) - Space Shuttle: Didn't do too well. Target score was 500k and I just barely got to it on my 3rd ball. Multiball really makes everything else feel unbalanced. Also... did I forget to tell you guys I WAS ABLE TO MEET DENNIS NORDMAN HIMSELF AT THE SHOW??? :) - [/QUOTE]
