[QUOTE="SlamCitySkates, post: 54820, member: 1260"] Dont get me wrong Im not claiming to be a TZ ace. Maybe our experiences are different. I played TZ as a student and students are notoriously tight with their pound coins. TZ stayed in the Union for all three years I was there. This wasnt because the Union wanted to have a table that racked up cheap plays, but because the players could get reasonable scores on it and, hence, enjoyed the game immensely. There are a number of machines of its time that stood next to it during its tenure which didnt last very long. Noticeably, Star Wars which had evil outlane drains. Dracula was also in there once and IIRC, the magnet would cause SDTM all the time. The two machines that made me give up for a while were ST:TNG which you could almost hear laugh as it drained all your balls in quick succession and Jurassic Park (which I now ironically own) which was (and still is) a SDTM monster. As for TAF - this was stationed in a pub next to where I worked for a year and I would go in lunch times and often be back later than I should have been and I rarely got through that many pound coins on it. Maybe I was just lucky with set ups but I found most Lawlor machines to be fair to me. (As for TPA, yes I think TZ is the easiest. CFTBL would rival it, if it wasnt for its utterly annoying multiball.) [/QUOTE]
