VPL12 - Nomination thread


Recommended Posts

Here's the nomination thread for VPL12, a friendly casual comp for playing virtual pinball in the PC app Visual Pinball. noms will be open 2-3 weeks and I'll look to post the first game Friday March 22.

 

Send nominations to me by PM (don't post them in this thread) so the actual games to be played will only be known by me.

 

VPL12 will be a total of 8 games with a mix of: 2x DMD, 3x SS, 3x EM. to keep the DMD fans happier than having none ;)

 

Will follow the same tried and tested format of each game running for roughly 2 weeks with overlap, a single game to start with for the first week, and the 2nd game introduced a week later.

 

everyone can nominate up to 6 games that are available to play in VP10.

 

Scoring will be

1: 100

2: 99

3: 98

 

and so on. There will be a bonus objective for extra tournament points - Best ball 1 score on every game, verified same method (screenshot, phone pic etc) cause I know there's some ball 1 heroes amongst us :D

 

Comp is for Visual Pinball 10 only!

 

@kane @skids @Dedrok @JustAnotherRat @Bishop83 @Wob @BandontheRun @acejas @Capp @MrBungle

 

any questions about the comp or help needed setting up visual pinball, post here and we'll try to get you going before the comp starts.

 

Clint - if you could help out with your score table as you have done previously, that would be awesome!

 

all are welcome, come on down and bash the virtual silver ball around with us :)

It's a great version of Pinbot. helps to ease the pain of having to offload my pinbot when we moved interstate last year. First vp game I ever contributed to, supplied measurements from Playfield sections to the author, Bord.

 

The outlanes are much friendlier in the virtual version too which is nice [emoji4] the real game can be brutal.

Are you trying to sway the voting? You shouldn't do that but I hear the new Addams table is really nice.... wait what am I doing, I'm not really a fan of its gameplay.

Yeah, i didn't really want to sell the pinbot, it's an iconic game but with moving house to a slightly smaller mancave space, i had to thin out the herd. Also sold my 1977 Cinematronics Space Wars, a cab that nearly crushed me when i tried to move it. It is a huge, heavy beast! (and it never worked properly)

 

Only one set of nominations in so far, skids has made some interesting choices :)
