Standing definately.

If you sit its hard to knee the machine in the middle of the coin door when you have  a shit game #@#

I always stand, cant nudge when sitting
Wow, looks like most like to stand , but not me, i always sit, i have a stool that i use , it has to be in the corect Position though, i can easily nudge & shake the machine. I have nearly fallen off when ''in the zone'' playing a serious game, it's just my style i guess , I can play standing but prefer sitting

Standing for me, can't be as forceful sitting down.

Good Im not the only one.I used to play pinnies at the Brickies near Windy Hill (84 ish?)and in my memorry there was always a bar stool just sitting there at the machine,feet were on the ground and you sort of leant your arse on the stool and could nudge with your knees as required.

DMD - I can't keep still, my legs are all over the place if I'm having a "serious" game. Usually I'm very relaxed playing an EM. I cannot sit down playing a pin. Very un natural !


 when Nino starts playing a DMD _ everyone stands back and laughs ( its a sight to behold) even his own son puts his hands over his eyes and shakes his head

I prefer Standing ( I don't remember ever seeing anyone play a pin sitting)

I played MartyJ's CV during the week (first time I've played a CV in 2 years) and I almost knocked over his playfield stand (behind us) ! I don't realise how "animated" I am playing DMDs.

Greg usually spends 30 minutes looking at the playfield on any given game before he plays it  #@#

Hmmmm, I'd say 'prefer standing' but that would imply I've tried sitting .... interesting. Might give it a go and see if the experience changes my mind.   %.%

After much trial and error its standing when in multiplayer and when playing solo its leaning on bar stool with beer and ash tray on table next to me so I can hold the ball and have a sip and drag.Each to his/her own .
