[QUOTE="Tann, post: 213485, member: 2327"] The 20mn limit was a great addition. But after 16 tourneys on consoles (and a lot more on mobile devices), it still lacks something very important: the real tension of a pinball tourney. Bummer. With unlimited attempts, no fear to lose a ball, no satisfaction to score something that gives only a few millions points, no "Oh Pinball God, if I make this shot, I'll secure a good score". Why? Just because if you have a poor game, it's not a big deal, José, you can play as much games as you want. Basically, your final ranking in a tournament depends on how much time you dedicate to it (until you have a good score on each table). For my part, the three times I wanted to win a tourney because I owned all the tables (one in silver, two in Gold), I played an average of 20 games on each table... and I finished respectively 1st, 2nd, and 5th. The others tourneys, when I was too lazy to grind good scores (the scores required to win, or at least be in the Top 10), I finished around the 15-20 ranks (even when I didn't own all the tourney tables). So, is it time for FS to implement new tournament rules? Share you opinion with the poll or below if you have another ideas. [/QUOTE]
