Quoted from Rarehero:If you time out a mode, you’ve only played it, but haven’t completed it.
Also, only A-holes “play” games by cradling and timing out. Don’t be that guy.
I agree but when you're in a tournament and trying to edge out the win these things happen and make for very long games.
Quoted from Rarehero:Is Hobbit even used in Tournaments?
Ted just said it wouldn’t be worth it to time your way out to the wiz mode anyway.
2017 pinburgh A finals used one. Too bad it had the old rail on the left so no one picked that bank because the balls were rolling off the rail into the outlane.
Quoted from thewool:Ooooh Ted! I forgot to mention, the Super Spinner still has no audio cues for being active/building/cashed in. Maybe the Dwarf horn could be recycled as the active sound now we all know it?
A couple of other nice to haves:
- a skill shot plunge to Balins hole (Keith was considering this at some point)
- a 'sneak in' award for getting the ball in Balins hole, with the DWARF targets still up - during main play.
They could be accompanied by an appropriate Balin quote from the movies such as:
For the plunge - There is one I could follow. There is one I'd call king. Or, It never ceases to amaze me, the courage of Hobbits...
For the sneak in - I’ll wager there are ways to enter that town unseen...
Neat suggestion!
It's been a while since there was a code update.
What are people's hopes and dreams if another code update was to come out. For me it would be a mode or benefit for clearing a drop bank X amount of times.
It would be cool to see some progress towards something else once you've qualified the mode similar to how there's cyborg multiball on maiden.
Quoted from Goronic:I would like to see the Balin shot added to the skill shots for 50K
50K might be a bit high but 15-20k would be cool. I would like to see an outline skill shot as well.
