This is a draft, it’s still subject to change till’ the tournament.
Last updated: 2026. August. 12.
If a game has a non-standard adjustment for a tournament, you’ll be able to find it below.
We aim to provide this in advance to even the playing field, by giving everyone time to look up a machine, adjust their strategy, etc.. for lets say an especially cunning machine setup, but keep in mind, that while we’ll do a “best effort”, we CAN’T guarantee that this will be the final state of the machines once the tournament begins.
As always, check the backglasses of the machines, where we DO promise, that every non standard adjustment will be listed, things which otherwise could not be seen by standing up to the machine, and taking a good look at it.
Game Galaxy:
On Sunday’s Encore tournament, machines from both the Main, and High Score categories will be in play.
Main:
| Machine name | Setting | Explanation |
|---|---|---|
| Stranger Things (pro) | ||
| Corvette | Corvette challenge and drag race are set to be impossible to win, red car wins in 2 seconds. | A software bug with the pit stops would make the game way too linear otherwise |
| Road Show | ||
| No Good Gofers | Skillshots are disabled | Skillshots would unbalance game, if someone’s lock got stolen, and were to get more attempts at it. |
| Shadow | ||
| Demolition Man | Each claw award can only be selected once per game | Lock freeze is too valuable compared to the others, making the game too linear, and a multiball fest. |
| No Fear | ||
| World Cup Soccer | Goal is unlit at the start of the game | Constantly having the ball spinning for 4 days would put too much strain on it, and our technicians. |
| Fish Tales | ||
| Foo Fighters (Pro) | Overlord lock is released at the end of the ball | |
| Venom (Pro) | Virtual locks | |
| Black Knight (Pro) | ||
| Deadpool (Pro) | Multiplier target disabled | It unbalances the scoring of the game |

| Terminator 2 | ||
| Addams Family Gold | Not running gold code | Mansion items make scoring less fair |
| Dr Who | No doctors are awarded at the end of the ball, video mode must be relit, even after a successful wave. | Video modes could be chained, providing risk free scoring without pinball skills. |
| Baywatch | Competition rom | https://www.pinballcode.com |

| Family Guy | Ballsaver post disabled, captive ball can only be advanced by alternating it left and right | Focuing the captive ball would make the game too linear, as the minipf is a risk free zone. |
