Worst ball of my life !
« on: January 08, 2009, 11:40:06 PM »
Hey all,

Just wondering if anyone else has ever had a shocker like this.
Was playing my Fish Tales ( fairly basic and simple but flowing game ) the other night.
There are loop shots left and right of PF.
There are 2 ramps and a captive ball centre of PF.
There are 4 targets to hit in the lower PF sides.
There is a hole to the top right to shoot for as well ( for Multiball)
So there is a bit to shoot for.

I had THAT bad a ball , I was belting it everywhere and couldnt hit a thing, the ultimate punch in the face from the machine ( to my face ) came when the machine went into ball search mode as I was still playing the ball as I hadnt hit a single bloody switch ANYWHERE for that long  !)#


How embarrassing !

Anyone else ever had that happen ?

Mate, I wouldn't write that up - I've had the odd bad few shots in a row but I have NEVER had a pin go in to ball search mode on me!

I owned that game for a year or so and it never happened. So for at least a minute you managed to hit nothing!
I would say thats skill wotto!

I am a beginner player at best but I can't ever remember playing a game poorly enough for the machine to go into 'Ball search mode', however often I feel like I am bashing the ball around for ages with no reward.
