    • ... just another form of nudging. Just because the legs move a bit across the floor doesn't make a difference - I'll just move it back a bit after I drain and all is good. 179 votes

    Quoted from dasvis:

    It takes a real man to do slide saves on my Embryon.

    i was thinking the same thing about WOZ the other night when my wife was playing, and she tried to 'nudge'. She moved, but the machine stayed put. She actually nudged hard enough to move far enough she bumped into me playing the game next to here. She still lost the ball...

    In general we don't do or appreciate huge slide saves at our place. Now if you have a hard nudge and the feet move an inch or so, then I don't care, but if you're moving the game six inches the tilt is either broken or fell off because I usually have mine all set moderately tight.
