Washington Heights Open Bonus Coverage!
2011 Washington Heights Pinball Open Champion, Frank Romero shows us how to win on Mars Trek. The question I have is, what would have been the ruling if this had happened during a tournament?
One hundred for one billion
The special challenge was to score over one billion points on Whitewater. However, this Whitewater, along with being set at a steep pitch, has a rather unfriendly left kick-out.

It’s snail time with Time Fantasy!
The Classics I Finals end with Time Fantasy. Here is another game that I learned how to play during the playoffs. I must have read the instruction card three times and I still didn't understand until I saw the game in motion. Then I just tried to copy what I saw other people doing.

For instance: How about some videos from the 2011 Washington Pinball Open held at LeCheile Resturant near the George Washington Bridge, New York.

Now added: The Championship Final on World Poker Tour.

Why I need to get an iPad 3
I am going to have to finally break down and get an iPad 3 when it comes out this March ... or April ... or whenever it's supposed to come out. I can already tell that this Pinball Arcade platform is going to be a real problem for me. I am going to have to buy nearly every table that comes out for it.

I needed to make an update to the design... The Shuttle Simulation has many quick, dangerous turns, but the pattern always remains the same. Know and remember the correct path to earn the maximum 209 Million points. It could mean the difference between victory and defeat in a pinball tournament.
