------------You mean like all of the EM tables you always keep wanting? lol
You literally just described all of them.
Neither are requested that much, On the other hand, POTO is requested every other week.
------------Personally, I couldn't care less about it. I mean, I'm glad we're getting it so most everyone will be happy, but I'm honestly more excited for POTO. lol

------------The hint will be revealed friday so... enough time to get some popcorn and watch this thread ^^
The worst possible outcome for me is it being like TZ, which I think is one of the most overrated, most non flowing, most cluttered tables I've ever played. I honestly don't get why people think that table is fun?
Working your way to LITZ is the reason why people think that table is fun, it's a "shots" type of game. The real TZ is a challenge to seasoned pinball players.
You are right, there is no flow (it's the opposite of a Ritchie table, it's very stop and go). And there are other problems that I think make this table not deserve top status regardless. The pop bumpers on the real machine for instance are often insta-drain, which means you flat out don't go for certain shots on the real table, at all. This and other tough drain shots means TZ is often frustrating for beginners, and IMHO a top rated table should be both playable for beginners and also have challenges for the experts. (This may be why Farsight tuned TZ on the easy side.)
TAF is *much* better in this regard than TZ in real life, the theme is more on the fun side, it's more beginner friendly, and it flows a *bit* more. (It's still not a Ritchie style "flow" table though. So we'll see. )
Should be getting that hint in the newsletter soon
