    Someones gotta know! Last year I think we knew a few days in advance. This year nothing. Please help a brother out so I can study some rule sheets!

    My spy says High Speed, Power Play, Funhouse, AC/DC, LW3, WOF.

    But I'll never divulge my sources.

    #5 9 years ago

    so we have to play five of these right?

    #6 9 years ago

    I'm sure there is much more than that.

    Classics has a Stern Pinball... They added a Firepower to the main bank late last night.

    Hopefully some more games to choose from. The only one of those I have played if FH. Well, that, and I know my way around a Firepower too. Either way, cannot wait to get there and start playing!! Come on 5 pm!

    Sweet. Looks like I know a few of the games for main. Never played any of the classics, but I might try my luck at those too.

    Question on LW3 - For competition, is there a better strategy than shooting the ramp repeatedly? I played it in Pinburgh and did nothing but shoot the ramp (maybe 40-45 times) and won by a wide margin.

    thanks for the tip haha

    So I guess they are only taking 24 for finals? So there is no B division?

    #15 9 years ago

    That's what it looks like (I'm not at the tournament)

    #16 9 years ago

    ok cool. Leaving soon to head down. Hopefully I can get lucky the next couple days.

    Quoted from chuckwurt:

    Well they could just break it up into A & B using those standings...I don;t know if it always says "B division" or whatever (not that I am familair with louisville rules or anything).

    I played it in a round in pb too, and my strategy was 1-2-3. Far fewer shots gets you a lot more points. After 7 ramp shots you'll probably have 15M, after 9 1-2-3s you'll have 30M. 123 goes up faster, too. I had a couple of ramp shooters in my group and they weren't close. I'm pretty sure I collected the 20M during multiball, so that's 50M in 123s alone. I also got the replay off of one of them, and then the ball hung up kicking out of 3. Risked a tilt to get a shot at the victory lap since I knew that'd be 25M (managed to get it with 1s left). I probably won by at least 50M. So I say go for 123s.

    Multiball is important too, especially if you can get quadruples. Singles, not so important, but not nothing.

    There would be a separate standings section if they were running a "B" division
