Quoted from LTG:

You mean the Lyman update ? Yes. Josh posted this a month ago :
"Since the unfortunate passing of Lyman the only work that has been done the last 15 months was the putting together of the "to-do list" of what's left to finish the upgrade. The number of people that have been working full time on design, software, graphics and audio has been . . . ZERO.
Everyone on the CGC side was already set with their 2022 plans (Pulp Fiction development among other things). It was on Lyman and myself to pull this through in 2022 and that of course didn't happen.
Now that CGC is through most of that other 2022 work, I'm hopeful that there will be some serious progress made during this year because resources should finally be available.
For the record, there is already a ton of upgraded content that is in the game. IMO there's already enough upgraded content that I feel confident we could ship what's in my game today and people would absolutely enjoy it.
However, I'm not interested in doing 'good enough' on this project, especially regarding the circumstances surrounding it. I owe it Lyman and I owe it to myself to finish off the totality of our complete vision for the game, and that's what I intend on doing regardless of how long it takes to get it done. "

Quoted from binary01:

I kept getting a ball stuck in the same spot too. A ball search would clear it, but it was becoming annoying. I added a rubber nub and haven't had the problem since.
[quoted image]

Quoted from audihere:

What a coincidence. Before I read you post today, I did almost the same exact thing. Hopefully it'll stay working.
There does seem to be a large nub on the left side of Bart. That same one on the right would probably have been a good idea.[quoted image]

Quoted from audihere:

I just sent CGC another reply on my CCr ticket. I have not heard one peep back from them. Ticket started on April 11th.

It's damn near impossible to get the lockdown bar back over the cabinet. And, glass falls out of guide channels.

Incredibly frustrating.

Quoted from Only_Pinball:

This is really disappointing to hear. I hope they get you fixed up!

Quoted from pinballinreno:

Your right side metal on Bart looks bent down.
Mine is perfectly flat.
I tried 30 times to get a ball to hang there. It just wont do it.
My playfield pitch is 7 degrees and the game plays really well there.

Quoted from pugface:

That red LED will go on and shut things down if communications are messing up in the system. If you don't get an error on the display, then probably outside the main CPU->playfield connection. Check the cable to the solenoid board and/or topper. Or test with topper unplugged

Quoted from binary01:

There are times when Bart would be slightly to the right, just enough to trap the ball between it and the vertical edge of the ball guide. My game is level with a 6.5 degree pitch.

Quoted from audihere:

I think it’s flat. Maybe an optical illusion.

Quoted from TooMetal:

How can anyone think they are going to see a PF delivered to them this year?

Quoted from LTG:

If production starts third quarter as planned, a lot of people will get them this year.
LTG : )

Quoted from TooMetal:

The third quarter of 2023 begins in 31 days and ends in about 120 days. CGC has not finished making even one half of the CCr LEs. If a lot of people get a PF this year, it can only mean that a lot of us are not getting our CCr LEs this year.

Quoted from LTG:

Quoted from Only_Pinball:

A big part of this is if they get the second line going and hire more workers.

Quoted from transprtr4u:

IF and AS PLANNED...

Quoted from LTG:

In the future I'll stay out of what I know is going on

Quoted from transprtr4u:

and lately customer service seems to be lacking.

Quoted from Ready_player_one:

Who has the best price on those magnetic speaker panels for CCrLE and a matching one for AFMrLE? I see them on eBay for $75 each, but don’t know if there was a better/cheaper option? It seems like several people have them, so I wanted to check before pulling the trigger.
Thanks!

Quoted from iceman44:

Amen to that

Quoted from Only_Pinball:

Haven't see you around in a bit Ice. How are you enjoying your CCLE?

Quoted from iceman44:

I love it now as is. Still like to see it finished off with the Lyman and Josh plan.

If it never happened. Still great for me

Quoted from whiteyjfm:

And don't forget that there are still around 1250 SE+ pins that need to be made after the LE's

Quoted from Only_Pinball:

Cheaper ordering direct as you get free shipping and no tax.

Quoted from WillM:

Wizmods. Took a while to ship here, but they're premo.

Quoted from ASAC_Schrader:

I doubt they sold that many and my distributor has LE’s in stock. I called on Friday and asked and ordered, paid and shipped same day. Why get a SE+ when LE’s are available?

Quoted from ray3127:

One of the art blades on my new LE was not applied properly, and though I made it look better it is still not as smooth as it should/could be.
I sent a ticket in this afternoon and received a response from CGC 32 minutes later. They are sending me a new art blade.
It sounds like some people have not been helped as quickly as they should have, but for me (today), the service exceeded any other pinball company I've ever dealt with (which is all of them).
Granted, sending out a new art blade is relatively easy. But still, based on some of the chatter on here, I was half-expecting to be ghosted. So I was pleasantly surprised and wanted to share my positive experience.

Quoted from jesperpark:

3298 posts and 4 months since I've dropped in here, what did I miss?
Selling a pin and will have room for another in the basement. Maybe soon I will get the call for my CCrLE to be ready

Quoted from jackd104:

You missed about 200 LEs made and someone asking if the Lyman code update is ready every 3 days and complaints about the wait and GCG poor customer service and the occasional report of ok customer service. The end.

Quoted from big-c66:

So I’ve narrowed my decision down to Getting Cactus Canyon or Jurassic Park premium. I’ve not got to play cactus because there’s nowhere close that I can play one but it looks beautiful and from what everyone says it’s great and I like a western theme. So I’m a decent player will it keep me interested or am I going to blow through it so to speak I know we’re ones at 8000$. And Jurassic is 9699$ so I could save some money what is everyone thinking

Quoted from sandersj:

Hi all, I'm getting what might be described as some ghost switch hits on startup that does not allow any type of skill shot for selecting the initial "bonus". I hit start, it kicks a ball into the shooter lane, then before I can shoot it completes the skill shot so I get what I get.
I've checked the switch matrix, manually tested every switch I can reach, and gone underneath and re-seated a bunch of connectors and I can't figure out where this switch hit is coming from. Anyone else have his issue?

Quoted from ray3127:

Frankly I'd consider going just a tiny bit higher and snagging a CCr LE. The market is full of them, and they can be had around 10k (one was listed for 9,750 yesterday).
