Should multi player games be encourage if people are waiting behind you or should the person play 3balls and then go back to the end of the line?
I’ve never figured out this pinball etiquette w/single player to four player (strangers or friends) and have always tried to be accommodating. Does anyone still put dollar bills in the coin return slot anymore to get a quiet tournament going? What do you think?
If I’m by myself, and there’s someone behind me, I’ll ask if they want to join. Otherwise, I’ll play my 3-ball game and that’s it.
I saw a few mini-tourneys with dollar bills, but I think it was groups of friends vs impromptu tourneys with strangers.
Most everyone here has been great, but as with all hobbies, there are a few folks who are a bit… odd.
Quoted from beelzeboob:Had a great time at the show as always. And I've gotta say: When everybody leaves, it gets pretty creepy around here.
Yes. I'm still in Frisco. Staring at empty parking lots.
Ha, same. Flights were cheaper on Monday. I just saw a tumbleweed blow across the street.
Quoted from Frax:The fuck it was dialed in all weekend lol....I played it Friday evening and it was literally impossible to make the lock shot around the left orbit, or loops from the upper flipper. Led to a very boring, very clunky game. I used to own one. And had to rebuild most of the playfield, so I know what that game can do when it's rocking.
It looked amazing, but at least when I played it...it played like dog shit. Glad to hear it got sorted, as it deserved better than what I got out of it, that's for sure. Those wireforms are bloody sick though and I'm seriously considering now having mine pulled off Godzilla and having them anodized...
Yeah. It was gorgeous, no doubt. But the Supercharger didn’t work. The kickback didn’t work. He put a ton of time and effort into the game, and I genuinely appreciate the work involved. But there were issues, for sure.
Anyway, congrats to him for best in show.
Quoted from Vino:Interesting, this was not my experience.
So goes the shows.
That’s awesome, sincerely. I’m glad our experience was a one off. We had a four player game where no one qualified the Supercharger or kickback. We chuckled and moved on.
Shit happens, it’s pinball. The game was gorgeous. I’m glad for those who had a good experience.
