Quoted from Skypilot:

I want to write that thread.

Quoted from 27dnast:

How in the world is JJP going to reveal and ship Pat Lawlor's new game this spring? That's what he's been saying...
Are they making them secretly behind the scenes? Is that what's been holding up the Hobbit? Are they ramping up both at the same time?
Any insights?

Quoted from Goronic:

Uh this is 2016...

Quoted from PACMAN:

Maybe so.
You're telling me this paragraph didn't make you go cross-eyed?
A couple of examples of the rules so far as I have figured them out, the pop ups that everyone has been complaining about? Well that starts beast multiball. You have to hit all 4 beasts then that starts multiball. The beasts pop up when you roll over the corresponding inlane. If you miss it you can hit the inlane again, or a specific ramp/orbit to light the inlane again to get another chance to hit the beast. The other multiball, you roll over the 4 lock targets then the right ramp lights up green with lock, hit that 3 times you start smaug multiball. Now the modes..You have to hit the drop targets to make the mode available for example dwarf, that qualifies dwarf modes which I think there are 4 of those. The one mode I played was the radagast mode. I'm not sure how I qualified it but I selected that mode by hitting the left ramp, then hit the right ramp to start the mode.(If lock is lit you can hit the ring button to bypass the lock and proceed to the mode start) Mode start the ball goes down to the windlance and you shoot the ball with the ring button to start the mode. Radagast mode then is multiple shots around the playfield, the shot will light up red, it will show on the book, and on the LCD screen what shot you have to hit. There were at least 3 shots that you had to hit then I drained. That is just 1 of 30+ modes.
