[. . . ] Rules Welcome to TIMESHOCK! Using the Operator's Menu Tips for Mastering Pro Pinball TIMESHOCK!Rules I do not know exactly what time you presently inhabit so I cannot tell in what dark age of pre-science you dwell, but you probably don't even know that time is crystalline. It flows from the future and crystallizes at the door of the present. The past is solid and cannot be altered. And my work on the fluid future threatens to destroy the solid past.

[. . . ] Description: If a ball is coming down the inlane, a hold pass can be useful. Simply hold up the flipper closest to the ball and make the ball jump over it, using it as a ramp. Slower balls can be helped along by a timely nudge, or by "tapping" the ball with the flipper when it is on the tip of it ("top of the ramp") to get it over to the other flipper. SLINGSHOT PASS Purpose: To redirect a trapped ball from one flipper to the other. Description: This technique is quite dependent on which game you are playing, but is feasible on most machines, although it can be more or less easy. [. . . ]
