Paragon is in my opinion, little fun IRL given the left (drain) "pop bumper array" and the fact you cannot trap on the right. I understand there are some persons who may find this table fun. Due to its design, I am not one. There are also some persons who are obviously (and to me unfathomably) nostalgic for this game. I am not one, nor do I understand why they are. I have played it at shows, and I find it to be a slow moving, boring drainfest. I also understand in Europe they had to re-release this table with a standard "Italian Bottom" outlane array on the left or it wasn't going to be bought or played over there. Now the announcement comes that we are offered yet another undesired Gottlieb Premiere next, Wipeout. Farsight, when are you going to wake up and smell the dissatisfaction among your "regular" customers which is evident all over this forum? A survey was done of the tables we the buying public wanted to see for Season 7. Wipeout's not there. Gottlieb Premieres are largely not there. Other than Paragon, the top 4 in the survey are The Shadow (Bally), Congo, Demolition Man, and Sorcerer (all Williams). All 80's/90's Bally and Williams games. We the customers told you what we want. Clearly. Why are you proceeding with more Gottlieb Premieres? For me, this is the straw that broke the camel's back. Nothing but a la carte purchase of tables from now on for me. I MIGHT buy some old EM Gottliebs, but I am more inclined to make a point by NOT buying them just to show Farsight where the money is in pinball sims. TPA fans, vote with your wallet if you are tired of boring, poorly designed tables with issues that THEN are simulated into being worse than they were IRL. (BoneBusters, I am looking at you.) Farsight, please demonstrate a learning curve concerning your customers' desires. If the rate of dogs to good tables remains as it was in Season 6, I might buy 3 tables a la carte, maybe less this season. You guys want more money, lay off the Premieres. It's that simple. Frankenball (who is going to go play more Ghostbusters Pro in his basement lair)</blockquote>
