Re: Sinister pinball design elements

Good ones! Reminds me of targets in the middle of the playfield that
are near the flippers and the surrounding posts tend to cradle the ball
and send it SDTM. I recall the center target on Aztec doing that.
Probably the inspiration for the angles chosen for a lot of targets
like on TAF, TZ, etc.
