Quoted from dannylite:Depends on what they're made of? Black ironwood maybe. As far as pinball MACHINES go it depends on the era and how they're setup. A lot of EM's have ridiculously short ball times for me (Isn't it exciting though). Early Bally drain monsters like EBD kick my ass but that's part of the love. More modern I'd have to go with TSPP for the deep factor. Still flippin' for AI after almost a year of owning. (Pathetic I know)
Sorry, just a pet peeve. I eat off of TABLES but I play pinball MACHINES and when people treat my MACHINES like TABLES and put their damn drinks on them it drives me bananas. (Especially when there's a F&@kin drink holder attached!) There is so much beautiful engineering that goes into making a pin that I just find the term "table" to be disrespectful. Maybe it's a generational pinball arcade thing?
Not generational.
The Who's Pinball Wizard came out in 1969.
"I thought I was
The Bally TABLE king
But I just handed
My pinball crown to him
Even on my favorite TABLE
He can beat my best
His disciples lead him in
And he just does the rest
He's got crazy flipper fingers
Never seen him fall
That deaf, dumb, and blind
Sure plays a mean pinball!"
I always though table or machine were interchangeable. Maybe it's a regional thing. Like calling a traffic circle a "rotary" or "roundabout."
I smell a new thread devloping...
