As i re-read my post, i realized, was
awaaaaaayyyyyy.
Questions
Why was the base able to perform so well? How were both bases tweaked?
Where they done the same, meaning 3/4 down the back prongs and the full length down the fronts?
Just wondering how much of it was the tool, and how much of it was the tweaker, and how much of it were the bases used and how much of this is the
style of tweak, applied.
I have recently learned that
different pliers work better for different bases, atleast for me.
I have recently learned that
different bases need to be tweaked differently, as the same "science" cannot be applied to all bases as a blanket.
I bring this up cause for me, one who gets kids and every-now-and-then, other adults, involved in the game, TWEAKING the bases is the part that makes or breaks the interest of the interested. TOO many times i have lost the "
30 minute time span to impress me" gameshow, because FIRST, i had to tweak the bases to get the men to move right. Now, the interested person has interest in tweaking, but if they are brand new, they dont quite understand the effects, affects and residual gains of a well tweaked base. By the time the figures move in a fashion of interest, or not how they did as kids, the attention span of the interested person is about up. Sure, we play and have fun, but it doesnt lead to too much
future interest. Maybe its me, the teacher? - Perhaps.
OR
Maybe we either need bases that come runningly tweaked right out the box, or we need tweaking secrets, tweaking ideas, tweaking knowledge, tweaking philosophies, tweaking tips and all things tweaking informartion - to be disclosed to the masses, if in fact, we are aspiring to our own MFCA mission statement.
Good tweaking is achievable with practice, but in the age where Electric Football is battling advances in game technology, tweaking is also just too darn complicated. Wish there were an easier way.
Whew, that was alot. Dont even know if this post was appropriate for this thread.
