[QUOTE="Gorgias32, post: 282910, member: 5914"] These are great ideas. I have seen pingolf can be run a few different ways (on Youtube) - probably the most common is that a specific score is selected that is a reasonable challenge to reach, the machine is set to 5 ball play, and players try to reach the score in as few balls as possible. If they fail to reach the target score on 5 balls they get a 6 for the table. It runs over the course of a number of tables, and the winner is the one with the fewest balls at the end. It's a fun way to play because even if you tank a table and get a crummy score, you could "hole-in-one" on the next one and be right back in it. I've seen a variation on head-to-head where there's a table-specific goal set (i.e. start "trolls" in MM, or destroy the first saucer in AFM, etc.), and the player who activates it in the shortest amount of time wins the match. This is a fun way to have potentially really quick head-to-head matches, and it's not that hard to pick out a challenge or two from individual tables. This is probably not something I would request from Zen in their next batch of multiplayer updates, but would be something fun to see down the line. [/QUOTE]
