Quoted from hocuslocus:I always walk away from super floaty games, feel like I'm about to fall asleep waiting on the ball to come back. The games in the AP booth were set up this way, almost like they were at a 5.5 degree incline. Left those and found another octoberfest that was set up descent from another vendor.
Oktoberfest is designed to play at a 6 degree incline and it will feel slower than any other modern pin. If you crank it up to 6.5 or 7 degrees, Oktoberfest will play faster but lose a lot of the side to side magnet action at the lower end of the playfield. Also, more balls will fly off of the wireforms and end up in the trough, and other gameplay issues will surface as well.
