In the same way that Madman3 will find a way to make a effective flipper for the small arena.


Ooooh... I think I am going to stop complaining now. :P
Any comments would be appreciated. :D

It's basically what Omnivore was in the BotM a while back.

I hope I don't end up in a wedge vs. wedge match. Because I'm almost certainly going to lose, given how abysmal my wedges normally are. =)

What I believe a Vertical Clamp is something which applies constant pressure down on the opponent. Rather than a hammer which just repeatedly hits the opponent.

That was probably me being captain obvious but oh well.

I think I may have sorted some of my wedge troubles with ordering my components, but I can't use them easily on an FBD. D:<

Just for clarifications sake, because I always forget which is which.  A popup is what compared to a true popup?

Regular Popups fire their weapons forwards from the back. True Popups fire their weapons upwards from under the front wedge, a bit more like a conventional flipper.

I think it's because popups have been firing forwards for so long, people assume that's the "True" version of a popup.

Amazingly, I've never built a 'false' popup. This should be interesting

If you look to the right of the page, near the top, there's a little search bar.
Use it, instead of being so lazy.
