[QUOTE="Robert Hunt, post: 63221, member: 1600"] I've seen four copies of Medieval Madness, and they varied in condition from "plenty good enough" to "excellent." The first one I played was at Silverball, where like most of the DMD machines, it was set to five ball play. Now I know that makes purist types howl, but I think that's a GREAT IDEA in a museum setting where games are set on free-play. When people are playing games with deep rulesets they can hardly expect to know, it's nice to allow them the chance to get a little deeper into a game and at least engage a bit with most of the features. [IMG]https://dl.dropbox.com/u/148928424/TPA/MM%20SB%20205.jpg[/IMG] That being said, on my first game on that machine at Silverball, which I judged to be in that "good enough" category of table that shows wear but plays fine, I destroyed three castles. I think it took me three MONTHS to destroy three castles in TPA. The table was clearly tuned toward the easy side, but that's not always such a bad thing. What's more, while I didn't have any three castle games in the six or eight games I played on the other three MM's I saw (all three of which being in better condition than the one at Silverball) I still found the game to be a bit easier in real life than on TPA. The first picture is of an excellent example at Flippers and the second was a color DMD pin in SUPER condition on display at the TPF. The last one at Pinballz had a “buy it now” price of 12 grand on it (so I passed) but it gave me some good games!
