Favorite Shot(s) in Pinball?

Postby Opto on Fri Oct 09, 2009 1:46 pm

I saw this on RGP and it made for a great thread - I'm curious what you guys think.

Best Single Shot?

Best Combo?

Best Lock?

I'll start -

Single Shot - Mouse Hole for Jackpot, Million, or Build Jackpot in Mousin' Around. Probably one of the longest shots in a System11

Combo - Left Orbit to right upper flipper/Ramp in STTNG - Basically the Warp Factor . . .

Lock - Fish Tales. Especially on a Fast Cast. Love the Ca-chunck sound!

GO!

thats such a hard question, its like asking who is your favorite child. I do like TOM when the guy falls down the stairs, and the LOTR locks, MGOW is a bitch, only in pinball can you enjoy getting your balls locked!

I really like this combo:

Family Guy
Right flipper shot to Chris Ramp
Left flipper shot through Lois Loop
Upper Left flipper shot into Monkey Hole
Right flipper shot into the Stewie (?) Lane
then another upper flipper shot into the Monkey Hole
REPEAT

Here, I made a handy illustration. Start at the right flipper and follow the line.

It's a satisfying combo. Who says Family Guy has no flow?!

It's actually evil monkey ramp to lois orbital to non lit monkey jackpot shot from the upper left flipper chris shot on the left which lights evil monkey jackpot shot and then evil monkey jackpot shot. Repeat.


I like the right flipper to spinner around the top of the pop bumpers down the waterfall to valley of demons. PARAGON

At the end there you mean chris shot to lois orbit THEN collect the monkey jackpot?

Yeah, yours is better. But it's the same idea.

How could I forget Paragon? Yeah, spinner shot straight over to the waterfall, and then crack some monster heads! (I grew up calling the Valley of Demons targets "Monster Heads").

Knocking the 1st locked ball in taxi back in to the lock with the other ball right when its released. It doesn't always relock but when it does.... feels like stick'n a 360 flip down a 6 stair back in the day's of my youth!

Yeah that normally doesn't re-lock for ya but I always seem to find myself trying to make that shot too!

I never thought of letting it roll back down to shoot Lois again. I guess I just get to excited and shoot the jackpot prematurely.

Dropshot - I think I am getting the names mixed up. I thought the chris shot was the upper ramp, which then feeds it straight to the left flipper... and then lois shot.

The chris shot is the 'left orbital' which stops and leads back to the upper left flipper. It also lights evil monkey jackpot. At least that is the shot needed to collect Chris in the super griffins mode as well as the stewie multiball jackpot for chris.

Oh, well in the mode where you have to hit the spinner that's at the ramp, it's a chris mode. So I figured that was the chris ramp.

Rev. I was gonna post that Taxi shot. But I'm so fucking old, I think it feels like sticking a 360 boneless out of the ditch behind the grocery store in my youth...

I made my Family Guy a "Featured Combo" on the main site.

Your favorite combo/shot can be featured, too! Just make a cool illustration like I did, post it on here, and anxiously await to see if I'll judge it worthy of the FRONT PAGE. Anyone can submit!!

I changed my mind. Two favorite combo's. "That Twilight Show about that Zone." Out of the scoop, catch right flipper, hit left, make it, hit right ramp, drop into that flippy thing, flippy thing flips and bang off the Lawlor Flipper into the organ, out of the scoop to dead flipper off right to left and into the lock you just lit with The Little Talking Tina Bitch E.B. "BLAM" said Danny Backglass!...OR, Fish Tizzles, first ball, cast, smack the piss outta it, to longcast, light video, smack th fuck outta it, longcast, light rock the bizzle, smack the shit outta it, longcast light E.B., pimp slap that bastard, longcast light multiball , garbage that shit one more time to lock for the fast cast ultra pimpery 25 percent Garbage Man...St. Louie Slim nakkla.
