Quoted from smokedog:Yah, I'm all about moving technology forward.
However, I've had a few beers, conversations, hung it on my wall and spent a ton of time just staring at this:Sure beats staring at this:
Doesn't look stellar when it's not turned on ...
Have you *seen* a WOZ backglass with the monitor turned off? IMHO it's superior to quite a few other translites and backglasses out there already. Of course it's mirrored, so that knocks out a lot of translites anyway... 
Oh wait a minute.... What about the guys that only play their pins in the dark? Do they then stare at their backglass once it's turned off too? 
Quoted from TheFamilyArcade:My average WOZ gametime must have been well under 2 minutes in your place yesterday. Played about 10 games. Outlanes were brutal. Ball save didn't seem too active. What's the average? I just sucked.
Count how long the Shoot Again insert by the flippers stays Green after launching the ball. That will tell you how long the Ball Save is set to.
Quoted from TheFamilyArcade:Just a couple flippers here and there. I didn't play everything. CV looked great, didn't play it. SM looked good, didn't play it. Getaway needs some TLC. Upper right flipper IIRC. Can't remember, one the games behind WOZ...needed some help. Can any of your staff do any game work? You shouldn't be the only one working on the games these days. You don't have enough hours with the business and the new bar.
I'm trying to be constructive. I don't get in there as much as I'd like so it coulda just been an off day, but it seems that your traffic has just gotten off the charts, so naturally the games are getting good play and will need attention more often.
That WOZ is just a freaking beast. Your 457K is nothing short of amazing...but I did hear tell of a little scoring technique ... .... If I could keep the ball alive long enough.
Munchkins! Munchkin land modes == Money on WOZ.
Quoted from PanzerFreak:I wonder if the next update will have final two Munchkin modes? I'm personally hoping that the existing Munchkin modes have there rules updated a bit to include progression. I believe as it stands now the two modes just award points for certain shots but there is not a sequence to follow unlike LOTR and TSPP. Keith has already redid the rules for Rescue MB so hopefully the same is coming for some of the current modes in the game.
The Munchkin land modes are money (points) because you can rack up the value of each hit with each additional Rainbow target you get. They start at 1000 per target and I've not seen an upper limit on how high you can push that per target amount. They're short modes (30 sec by default) but if you can get one going during a multiball, you can get some significant points out of it!
I would be fine if the current two Munchkinland modes remain as-is, making the last two something more goal oriented.
I'd REALLY rather see the Witch battles worked on next. She's kinda the major opponent after all.
