    Are you psychic or something? That's exactly what I was thinking!

    Is It Time For TPA 2?

    I've been thinking about the state of TPA a fair amount lately and I've come to one conclusion: a whole new version of TPA would be the best thing FS could do for their storied pinball emulation. There are several reasons I came to this conclusion: 1) A fresh start: Like any system, TPA will...

    Request Some Capcom tables?

    It's good to be back, Cap'n, believe you me! ...in all seriousness, though, you honestly shouldn't pass final judgment on a pin based on a single rough table; that'd be like judging the latest Crysis title based on a computer that can barely run the minimum settings. I promise you that...

    Request Tales From The Crypt

    I think the main issue is that the license isn't terribly kid-friendly, so TFTC has been tabled (no pun intended) until Pinball After Dark. All we need now is some idea of when PAF is coming and TFTC should soon follow...

    Request Some Capcom tables?

    Apparently, Capcom Pinball's MPU is a major bear to emulate; only the Stern S.A.M. MPU is more of a resource hog, if what I've heard is correct. That said, I hope FS get the technical side of things sorted so we can enjoy these wonderful tables (Breakshot was my jam at PAPA 16 and its absence...

    Meteor please!

    Put me down as another aye for this one! Licensing shouldn't be a major concern, as there are no actor likenesses or sound clips from the film (also, the film itself is a notorious box office bomb, essentially killing off the disaster movie wave of the '70s). Besides, F2K's started to look...

    What are your most-wanted tables?

    Hrm? You do realize that Timeshock was originally a digital-only pinball table, don't you? In fairness, Silver Castle Pinball are working on a physical version, but since Barnstorm Games have an updated re-release of Timeshock in the works (though Lord knows when we can expect it to release)...

    Zen Pinball 2 - Venom Pinball

    I was actually wondering if anyone else was having as much trouble as me with the Jailbreak ramp—I manage to get maybe 1 ball in 20 to not brick the shot.

    The things Farsight put up with...

    Are you a mind reader? That's exactly how I feel about the TPA-Zen rivalry! It's actually cooled down substantially over the past couple of years–when I first got here in 2012, it seemed like I couldn't swing a dead cat without somebody bashing Zen. Personally, I'm glad we even have a pinball...

    pinball after dark update

    Wasn't TFTC floated as a potential Halloween 2015 table in the POTO Twitchcast, though?

    The Addams Family Kickstarter is LIVE

    Actually, we can pretty well bank on a rush in the last 72 hours. There's a consistent pattern with Kickstarters–you have a massive surge in the first 72 hours, followed by a comparative lull in the middle, ending with another surge in the last 72 hours. I sincerely doubt that the fans will...

    Bug iOS v3.9.0 #1 Bugs

    That sounds pretty typical for TPA–you only get a tilt warning after 2 nudges in fairly quick succession.

    What's your favourite table you know will never come to TPA?

    Seawitch placed 9th in the Stern/Data East/Sega poll last year, so I think it has a healthy chance of seeing the light of day, but aside from Seawitch (and F2K), Catacomb is the only other classic Stern with even a puncher's chance of making the cut. Sadly, this probably means that Lightning...

    hall of fame points?

    It's quite simple, really—each table has a value that equals 1 HoF point and can award up to 1,000 HoF point; all fractions are rounded down. However, FS's decisions on where to set the HoF values for each table often come across as...capricious (4B for 1,000 HoF on Cactus Canyon? Really?), so...

    Table Pack #30 Speculation

    Tommy is unlikely at best, since it will probably require a Kickstarter. Also, I never knew Stephen King had any involvement with pinball—what table are you referring to?

    Stern Sees a Bright Future in Digital Pinball - Discussion

    What makes you think TPA is almost over? I can easily think of 30 more non-KS tables a fair number of people here want. Anyway, I hope that Stern do make a serious move on digitizing their physical tables—perhaps chaining digitizations together with Vault Editions of older tables could open up...

    Request How About A Multi-Table Kickstarter?

    I was operating off the assumption that FS would have other licensed tables all sorted out and only needing funding so as to avoid precisely the situation you describe. My thought process was that by having other big-ticket licensed tables riding TAF's coattails, FS could have money coming in...

    Table Pack #30 Speculation

    If FS stick to the 4-week release cycle from here on out, we should get confirmation of Table Pack #30 on August 23.

    Request Doctor Who by Bally. Who's With Me?

    That makes two of us! In fact, I recently proposed that FS kill two birds with one stone and use this KS to get licensing funds for as many tables as they can manage (I'm aware that it didn't work the last time they tried it, but everybody knows what to expect from KS now and TAF is the single...
