    Quoted from johnnyfive:

    There was just a little consistency needed. The TSPP was brutally steep and the right outlane was rough (I had two missed skill shots that immediately drained out right outlane), while the 24 on the other side of the aisle was super flat. Even with wide outlanes, that 24 played had insanely long games. One of the rounds that took forever was Keith's group all having monster games on that 24.

    We strive to set up games at Pinburgh so players all have a fair shot at playing them without them being too difficult.

    With that said, we prepare over 250 different games for the tournament (most games used in any tournament) and sometimes the setups don't quite work out the way we envisioned them.

    In regards to the pitch of some games, certain games play more difficult with a shallower pitch and certain games are harder with a steeper pitch. In specific regards to 24, some times 'A' players will just play forever no matter what you do to the game. It is what makes them elite players

    Quoted from johnnyfive:

    Sorry, I didn't really mean to be critical, 24 and TSPP seemed to be exceptions on either side of the scale of difficulty. For the most part the machines were all set up to a pretty consistent level of difficulty and I didn't notice a single machine that wasn't level. That's an enormous feat.
    I was just mad to get 3 house balls on TSPP when I freakin' own one .

    No worries, the entire team appreciates the feedback. It will help us in future tournaments (and that TSPP was rough).
