[QUOTE="invitro, post: 231736, member: 446"] You don't need anywhere 6 hours for this strategy to benefit you. I think my #9 1B game was very short, maybe even under one hour. I'm not sure if you need any amount of hours at all... I think it gives a substantial benefit even with only, say, 3X bonus. It does take some practice to learn the scoop, its kickout, and the ramps to relight it. I like SST quite a bit as it presents a fierce challenge, and is about as far from a one-shot table as they come. The audio still annoys me, but what seems to be crappy physics from Farsight (a rarity in Season 4) annoys me more. I should play it more... my #9 game was #2 for a fair amount of time after SST's release, and so putting in the time didn't feel worthwhile. P.S. I am confident in saying that SST was one hell of a good pick by Farsight as a Sega representative. I've played maybe 2/3 of the Segas extensively, and I'd probably go with SST from among them. Maybe Baywatch or Maverick. I'd say Franky except for that unfortunate 9,999M limit. TPA is getting to have enough WMS tables so that Bayw and Mav are rising toward my most-wanted tables, with maybe also Goldeneye and an interesting-looking game I haven't played much like Viper, or even Batman Forever.
