First time for everything so the other night a friend was over playing JM in which I have Midnight Madness enabled on. He was in the middle of a ball and got into the glove and plopped the ball down in Video mode. Sweet one more extra ball to crack the GC score. He was finishing wave 1 with 2 more guys in a corner and some seconds still remaining. Then Midnight Madness hit; it launched the balls loose from the upper PF and started his multiball. Only one small problem all the balls are falling down the drain as the flippers were both deactivated. I glanced down to check if the coin door was ajar. Nope ball ended after ball save and so many balls just went straight down the drain. Next ball started everything is normal. so it gave him multi ball only to make him watch them all drain and it stopped him from getting extra ball which would have finally cracked PDX Monkeys GC score which sadly is still standing.

Do you have a Midnight Madness Horror story? Please share it below.

I had JM reboot on the start of power down. "that's it?!?"

No horror story, but the first time it happened to me it freaked me out. At the time I did not know what midnight madness was and I thought my game was malfunctioning. If I remember correctly it was a game on my TOM and it wasn't even midnight (clock not set correctly)...
