How long until Tony finds the short?
« on: December 30, 2008, 09:50:20 PM »
I have been waiting patiently for three days for the solution, ( http://aussiepinball.com/index.php?topic=466.0;topicseen ) and it's like a "To be continued" coming up unexpectedly at the end of an episode of your favorite TV show. So, to keep me amused while I wait, please cast your vote. The nearest correct entry wins something (more on that later).

To ensure the **first** correct vote wins, you need to cast the vote and also post what you voted in a reply

Classic Comp.  Great Idea

I posted "Within a Week", cause if he doesnt find it by then, I recon we might see Tony on the 6pm News for doing something naughty. %.%

Oh f**k me - talking about making me laugh!

I don't know how to vote....can't say never but it is giving me the shits!  :lol :lol

Have moved onto another game and I thumb my nose at World Fair for now as I feel like it is laughing at me behind my back while I'm there and all the games are laughing when I turn my back!

This original post really cracked me up (still have smile on my face)  ^^^

I voted for "within 10 Days "...

I say that because Tony is "in heat" for a new game or seven, and that will keep him busy.. He will find the fault... inbetween finding new toys..

Mate,

I'm like you - so many projects - I can hear the World Fair laughing at me from here - even when I'm asleep the thing is laughing.....it has picked a fight it will not win  *.*

What is pissing me off - it's ONE F**KING WIRE on the playfield - do you think I can find it?

Maybe I should put 'please help the noob'?  #@#

Nino, I note that Tony is classified as "Pinball Expert".

I think this needs to be adjusted for the sake of the soundness of the rating system here...   <.>

I think that invalidates the poll.

Geez Nino, just started this poll and you want a new one already?

You are very unkind!  !!!
