You think you've got problems Zerhino - I live on the other side of the world

I remember EMs having a fair angle and most older machines I have played have been set up too flat in my opinion. However, the angle is, of course, operator set. I suspect Tudnut and I just played them where the operator set the angle higher. I know that the angle varied by machine and the place you played them. Some machines were slow and slower than the VP versions. I tend to like to speed them up a bit as that's how I remember them. Especially the easy games were often set at a higher angle.

You just busted all my dreams Tom. I've been waiting for Gottlieb to arise from the ashes and remake all the fairey tale tables. I still live in the past, but I visit all eras now and again. And I never doubted for a minute that VP tables play faster than the real thing, and on most EMs I lower the slope so they play like I remember them..

(LOL)

I'm glad somone else has a sense of humor about this, John. While I have no problem with nostalgic opinion, I tire when one continually confuses that with fact in their dealings with me; especially when they avoid addressing direct questions.

Let's see...I mentioned that I "remembered" games as being faster, and that a lot of games (not all) were faster...and from this you get:

1. That I have no sense of humor.
2. That I'm a self-proclaimed EM expert.
3. That, somehow or other, I'm hoping someone brings EM's back.
4. That that particular response was somehow antagonistic as far as my having been "goaded" into it by you (even though it was in response to des).
5. That I avoid addressing direct questions.

Sorry my responses pack so much innuendo! lol
