[QUOTE="knockknockknock, post: 82354, member: 3013"] Hi all, nice to see a popular pinball forum. Just to intro myself, I'm Sam, live in Manchester (UK), dad to a couple of young kids and have very fond memories of putting my three letter name up in lights across pretty much every pinny I found in my teens/early 20s in/around Leeds where I grew up. I presume this place is full of people from around the globe so that might not mean much, but it was a competitive hobby back in the late 80s/early 90s! Anyway just thought I'd duck in and say hello, keep up the good work to the producers of the pinball arcade app, and I'm really keen to know if the topic of realistic physics has been discussed on the forum in any depth? One thing I feel an electronic version will always struggle to recreate is spin on the ball and the reactions that spin will apply to things the ball hits (whether they be flippers/inanimate objects) and how sometimes spin on the ball can determine whether a certain shot is makeable from right/left flippers. Big fan of creature from the black lagoon/arabian nights, hopefully see you on the leader boards :) Cheers - knock knock knock! [/QUOTE]
