Andromeda for me. A fresh wax job and it's pretty damn fast. Even though I'm aware of the dangerous pop bumper by the flippers sometimes it will just stuff you so fast there's almost no time to react

Quoted from Caucasian2Step: Wheel of Fortune
That game can burn in hell. I fucking hate it. I really, really cannot stand that abomination. There's not a single satisfying shot in that game. Broken code, crummy modes, and the dumbass flipper layout. Of course, my local pinball bar owner bought one a couple years ago. League nights when it was on the menu he would just laugh as I would curse up a storm about how he needs to sell it.

Quoted from Caucasian2Step:If it was my pinball bar, I’d keep it about just for players just like you. Nothing personal, but as a “passionate player” myself... Entertainment like that can’t be bought. Watching other pinball players implode is a cathartic and hilarious experience. I also know that when I implode, the joke is on me. So I better laugh it up! If anything, as a competitive player, that’s reason for me to play it and learn it. If someone is in a tourney with me and they know I don’t like a specific game, guess which game they are going to choose? And they will choose it, every single time...
I do wish the code was finished on WoF. When was the last time you played a pinball game that didn’t have a standard flipper placement (with maybe a slight variant on inlanes and outlines)? Nordman’s games seem to have a high propensity for having interesting layouts and unbalanced/ incomplete code... a shame, really.

Oh, he recently shopped it and added a color DMD so my torture will definitely continue once leagues resume. I can put up some decent scores on it, but I just never feel a bit of satisfaction. The contestants need shot quite a bit in the game, and it's just so lame shooting them. Maybe if they were drop targets it would be slightly better. Maybe part of it is I just like to bitch about how much I hate it.
