I intentionally avoided mentioning competitive play and that seems to be an underlying tone here. That is an entirely different animal. I really could care less about games being exploitive, formulaic or unbalanced like TAF or DW or JM. These three, as an example, got a lot of play from me...

I totally agree. You play the game for yourself. Set your own goal. That may be to get a good final score, or an achievement within the game. Perhaps you want to complete a mode that always seems to elude you, or reach a stage in the game for the first time, explore certain facets of the game...

I stand corrected. Just spoke with my neighbour who works for the City of Toronto. The Etobicoke Creek water level was 30 ft higher than normal and was the source of the highway flooding. So many stories of damage.

This storm was very targeted. Hamilton, Oshawa saw next to no rain. The Mississauga/Etobicoke border was hard hit as were many other areas in Toronto and Mississauga. That pic before the Ferrari was of the 427 South/Burnhamthorpe, and unlike the south end of the DVP, it's not river overflow...

Ready to go!!

I'm playing LOTR a lot these past couple of days :D My wife (having a game below) is into it too.

One of my favourite subjects. Some dialing in is obvious, but you just have to play your game and see what's wrong and adjust from there. Ball guides were mentioned and that would include inlane guides that feed the flippers. On most games the ball should not bounce as it is being delivered to...

I'll be going to CPC.

Wonderful news. Congratulations - on both fronts. Your little guy will be so happy. As for the new house... more pinball space in this one :mrgreen: ??

Happy Birthday Mike.

Bet it feels good to see things clean up to so well. Removing this kind of build up will last a long time in a home environment. Thin ball trails will come back that will need occasional cleaning but you won't see this kind of dirt accumulation for a long time. You are doing the right thing by...

Doug - Any way you could point me to the WMS TSB for the ST:TNG cannon position switches? Searches I done to date have not found this particular TSB. Thanks,

From a guy named Adam Lewis, here are some interesting ideas for a staircase and pinball lift setup: http://www.seriousviewers.com/gameroom/room1.htm Spiral staircases would truly maximize your space. Perhaps use two - one for down, the other for up to avoid traffic jams. You could increase...

You want to compile some interesting stats? Incorporate the time the posts were made. Compile a top ten list of posters during M-F 9am-5pm, outside of 9-5, on weekends, on stat holidays and so on. Perhaps a graph of who is online using similar criteria would be interesting as well.

I like it! May just get me one too. Price is right.

Looks sweet Adam. The extension approach will be much more flexible in the long run, not to mention look better! You've got a nice niche there for a big deck (adding to the large deck you already have). Even if you don't build that now, I'd consider drawing something up and pouring any new deck...

This is too funny. LOL!!

Oh, and full disclosure. I've been a Boston Bruins hockey fan since I was six years old.

Quite dismissive Adam. One could easily look at, hmm, let's take pinball at Pinburgh for example, and ask why would anyone bother to watch someone else play a game or two of pinball in the circuit finals? The answer is the same. Spectators appreciate a display of skill, the competition and...
