Let’s face it, I suck at pinball. I have 2 games, I play at least once a day and often more, I train to hit the shots consistently, and I still suck.
2 years later with WOZ I still haven’t passed the million and I still have not melted the witch. Unlike video games where practice always pays off, pinball still feels random especially the drains.
So my new year resolution is to finally be lucky with my balls !
Quoted from LTG:Thank you. Though I wouldn't go that far.
It is like golf. I started too late in life to be good at it. So I went in just looking for fun. Golfed almost 20 years. Had a blast. Pee on trees. Throw clubs. I was born to golf. I stopped about 1998. Tore up my back too many times. And the cost has about doubled.
And I miss it. Funny. I don't miss the things I had to be great at or the best at.
People just need to do what makes them happy.
LTG : )
I’m probably the only guy on earth who managed to break his foot while golfing.
Quoted from pinmike:Instead of playing pinball just trying to score the highest points,Read through the rule sheet and go after the achievements to aim for that shot to get to wizard mode.
I never play a pin just to score points I always play to try and get wizard mode
My 2 games, WOZ and TSPP are famous for their impossible to get wizard modes. It makes me wonder if I’m not a masochist actually.
Quoted from twhtalm:You're not alone. Dislocated my knee trying out a different drive swing. I don't golf anymore.
I was in the rough and felt something on my foot, I looked down there was a small gray snake, I lifted my club, slammed the snake and missed it...
