invitro · Dec 1, 2015

Two great bits of news for this month's tournament:

1) Look at those tables!! All great ones. CC is the only repeat; here are the best scores on it from June/July:
----- 1. 424,945,380 - vikingerik - Bronze
----- 2. 372,667,470 - Dizzer2012 - Bronze
----- 3. 353,579,790 - invitro - Bronze

2) The web page now has previous tournaments! Check it out at http://www.pinballarcade.com/Tournaments/ or read LAW's post about it: http://digitalpinballfans.com/showt...ssues-Requests?p=227942&viewfull=1#post227942

That's one heck of a stacked tourney.

AFM - Total Annihilation?
BRose - Sinking ships all the way
CC - Bonus
CPub - Cash fights?
CV - Join the Cirqus, is it doable in 20 minutes? Can't say I've ever timed it.
MM - This will be interesting, but keeping Castle Multiball going as much as possible seems optimum, I don't see how BFTK is possible in 20 mins.
NF - Meet Your Maker. Aim to complete modes you can finish as quickly as possible (Downhill, Skydive, Nascar).
T2 - Spam orbits?

For No Fear, one way to shortcut modes is just to drain out of them. I did that on Ripley's sometimes in one tournament.

Any clue what table is on PS4 in replace of no fear?

I just checked the newsletter... it's Dr. Dude.

Wow, this should be a fun one! My first time playing in gold.....intimidating! I love how they have past tournies now, I thought it was weird you lost the ability to see score details once it was over....

May I ask what your TPA username is? I can't tell from last month's Silver standings. And good luck in the tourney!

Me too.

I was top ten in Bronze, then top ten in Silver.....

I think I'm in for a very big "reality check" in Gold...

I see looking back at the last tournament that you have nothing to fear from me haha.....

Danton what name are you under? I don't see you in top 10 silver last tourney?

JustinCamp · Dec 4, 2015

Also, what happens if you completely miss a tournament? Do you move down?

invitro · Dec 4, 2015

JC, you don't move down if you miss a tourney. That's what other folks have said, I don't have a source but it makes sense

Because of your comment I timed CV join the circus. I started the mode at 12 minutes and finished it by 14. Never played the table this well haha, I should have waited for the tourney. At 130 mil after 20 min....I have never joined the circus prior just started the wizard mode, that multiball was a joke though, no ball save at all???

no just a freak game, but it is possible! Terrible hustle if I am, I forgot to make bets!

Anyone know what time the tourney starts?

There has been a lot of variation in the start time, but I'll guess sometime around 6:40 to 8:11pm ET. IIRC, the web page started updating with tourney scores a few days late last month, so you've gotta either go in TPA, or check here, to see if it's started. (I'll post in this thread if I see that it's started and no one else has posted about it here.)

invitro · Dec 5, 2015

I just got up from a nap, and the webpage shows that the tournament's underway. Eldar has 300 pts so it's been running at least an hour. I'm gonna head to TPA myself in a second. Good luck, pinheads...

By my reckoning I ought to have 790 or 800 points by now, but not for long
