    MM from Planetary Pinball

    That's pretty impressive...wonder how long they'll last? Do they have all the dies/molds for all of the parts?

    Pat Lawlor making a comeback???

    Re: Pat Lawlor making a comebackjQuery18205456593525727309_1 PL doing a zidware game isn't that crazy an idea, is it? If nothing else, money would be no object in that case.

    X-MEN LE price check

    NIB price sounds about right, and yeah, the prices have dropped on these, but I'm with Drano-my Magneto isn't going anywhere for a while now.

    STTNG Delta Ramp Diverter

    From what I remember, the normal action is to send the ball back down the ramp, and it'll go over to the borg ship to qualify locks or in MB. There's no way it should grab a ball like that though-is it just not moving through the full extent of its motion, or is the timing off? If a switch is...

    Star Trek at Starburst

    So has there been a reveal of what the starfield projector piece actually is?

    TZ Price check

    I'm actually really surprised that TZ hasn't gotten more expensive the way that AFM and MM have. Just a factor of there being more out there I guess. It's still not a cheap game by any stretch, but you can get one for the price of a NIB stern pro, which makes it a great option as far as I'm...

    View first unread post

    So is the first unread post link working for anyone now? Looks like this is still busted. Even on the free phpbb it should work, shouldn't it? I know I've used other sites that have the platform where the feature works. Want a hand troubleshooting this?

    Latest ColorDMD - MOVE YOUR CAR!

    Making this an open source platform could be huge-only problem there would be the sheer number of competing projects for the same game, but I suppose that's a good problem to have. You'd probably have options for just about every BW game within a year.

    What are you excited to see at Expo?

    Looking forward to finding out about: -What the hell has JPop been up to? I remember hearing that Magic Girl was going to be done last year for expo, but nothing since then. Will this be when the public finally gets to see what these games are? It sounds really intriguing, but will it work...

    The Pinball Diaries (what did you do today?)

    Most I ever managed on STTNG was just under 2 billion... Dammit, now I miss playing that game. Oh well, can't own them all I guess :)

    Latest ColorDMD - MOVE YOUR CAR!

    Those look like they've really gotten the hang of getting better colour out of these games. Have they ever gone back and updated the ROMs for older games post release though? At this point, some of the later colorization jobs look way better than the original couple of games.

    Centaur II - Transistor keeps blowing

    Glad you found it-intermittent problems are the worst, especially since you never quite know if it's really fixed or not.

    LED's - Love them or hate them

    I'll have to try that alcohol trick to clean out the underside of the inserts on some of my games-I know my TZ could probably use it. The top is pretty clean, but underneath it's full of crud. Lots of carbon dust, to the point that it looks like I've been working on an engine if I have to...

    High Scores

    Wow, that's way higher than I've managed on the latest code-all my scores top out in the high 40s. Usually that's from completing at least one villain, and an OK multiball or two, but nothing seems overly lucrative in that game. Sentinels/Magneto is pretty good, but unless you max out the...

    LED's - Love them or hate them

    In some places it can definitely work. I really like the LEDs that came in the inserts for my CV for example, since they add more colour to the game. They also look great in the X-Men LE, but that game was designed around the LED lighting, so I don't have problems with strobe. I did remove...

    Star Trek Launch Party - Oct 18th

    That's shaping up to be a busy weekend, but glad they have a date out there. The message from Stern still said TBD.

    TOPL - Brawl For All - Oct 20th

    The original idea I was toying with is awarding points for a win proportionally to the score of your opponent. So if you're tied, you get 1 point, but if someone who's 0-4 beats a 4-0 player, maybe they get 3 points or something (but the inverse case would be one point). The idea here is that...

    TOPL - Brawl For All - Oct 20th

    Sounds like a cool format, and it should mean that everyone can play all afternoon. Only real question on the format though is whether there's any way to get rid of the random chance element in a reasonable amount of time. If you have 30 players, and have time for 8 rounds, then it's possible...
