[QUOTE="Tann, post: 244783, member: 2327"] That's the real fun. More dilemma, more strategy. When I see some crazy top scores, how many tries it took to achieve these perfect runs? When I meant "tries", I mean "pause and restart" until the perfect play scheme happens. I know it, because I did it in the past, when I wanted to win some tournaments (1st in Silver, 2nd in Gold, were my best results). Now, I just play two or three games by table (sometimes only one, when I achieve a correct score on the first run), and I never "pause & restart" a game. When I own all the tourney tables, I finish around 20-30th rank, with less than 20 overall games in the tourney (not full 20mn for each game, obviously). I have no desire anymore to grind games on some tables, to enter the Top 5. Oh yeah, when you get, let's say, a solid 600M on HD3, would you risk to lose everything by trying to improve it, knowing there's a low chance percentage that you'll do better? It would be the same for the opponents, even for the current TPA wizards. Of course, if a "pause & restart" would give a harsh 0 points. Otherwise, it wouldn't change anything. [/QUOTE]
