[FSPA] previously unknown pinball technique discovered?

[steve]

 This is a solution that is far worse than the actual problem
1 - Hitting the rail is completely unnecessary when you could have just hit the wood cabinet and avoided the risk of denting the side rails2 - In practice you can't tell if its working or not... so you can go banging along blindly3 - It's very disruptive to people around you
While it may be less force than nudging... you don't nudge for 10-30 seconds consequently.  
I wouldn't recommend you do this as a practice.

 oh it's also not as loud in person as it seems in the video

it doesn't take that much force. Certainly less than standard nudging and not in a way that could ever hurt a machine.
You bet I'm doing this for 15 seconds in comp rather than waiting 3 min for a bobber to stop and I doubt there's any rule against such a thing.

 If someone complains at a tournament you tell them to “STFU i am playing pinball.  Do some research!”

 So... basically you're beating on the cabinet instead of just waiting for the tilt bob to slow down on its own.  Two comments:
1) If I ever saw you do this to one of my pins, that would be the last time you play it.2) If you were doing this next to me in a tournament, a TD is getting called for interference.
Sure, it works, but it's just about the most annoying "technique" I can think of.
Flame away.

 Is there anything that would convince you to "give up" that pursuit?

 If this 'video proof' turns out to just be a Rick astley clip, I'm going to run the risk of getting expelled from all FSPA activities just to slam tilt any machine you're playing.

  sounds like it really is a new discovery. i'll make a video when i can. 
  it's a bare handed nudging technique that should work on any machine

 Rare earth magnet on the bottom of the cabinet?

    Hey all, 
  I might have discovered a previously unknown pinball technique. Not sure what to do with the info. 
  
  I need to make a video to demonstrate, but first thing is I want to make sure it's not already known 
  so does anyone know of a way to reliably, consistently, and quickly stop a tilt bobber swinging from normal playing  conditions outside the cabinet?
