[QUOTE="shutyertrap, post: 234368, member: 134"] Or just plain can't stand classical music. If you are talking about musical composition and theory, then you 'might' be correct in that they don't know about that aspect of music. This argument was had in the movie 'Amadeus' I believe. I haven't added any new ratings to this survey since it was first put up. Back then, I set some rules up for myself. The first was that I was going to rate tables solely on what I thought of playing them in TPA. I've had real world experience with almost every table in the collection, and I think this is a huge distinction to make. The second stipulation I put on myself was that there had to be an equal spread from 1-10. After all, it makes no sense to rank tables if out of 50 you gave half a 9 or 10, and the rest 7's and 8's. If you are being honest with yourself and making a true ranking, something comes out on top, something makes the bottom of the list, and there are no ties. The last factor, and the one I said in my original rankings post, was what tables I play the most. I love Whirlwind, but I simply don't play it much in TPA. Using that criteria, I sank Black Knight pretty much to the bottom, giving it a 1. But then in real life, I don't like Black Knight either. Shoot, I don't even care for BK 2000. It's simply a matter of taste, based on how I like to play, how I like my play field layouts, and how I like the scoring. Now if you feel that makes me not know anything about pinball, so be it. Some people may think you're a douche. Doesn't mean you are. I also happen to hate classical music, and would much prefer to listen to some vacuous pop over it any day. It's art, it's subjective, not mathematical. There is no truth, only opinion. [/QUOTE]
