Quoted from Yakrobat:

Good discussion, thanks for the reply.
With regards to the ramp lighting Wagon Wheel rounds, here's a quote from pinball.org/rules/cueballwizard.html "The ramp has to be hit once to light it for the wagon wheel award. This means after you initially plunge the ball, the ramp will be lit for the first wagon wheel award." This is exactly how the Pinball Arcade versions behaves as well.
Your description of the ramp doing nothing jibes with what I observe in my machine. Is there is an alternative/updated ROM with a different ruleset?

Getting corner pocket first is a setting in there somewhere. I've had mine set both ways but I couldn't tell you for sure how I got between them. Does flipping the "tournament mode" switch on your machine make a difference?

Quoted from shacklersrevenge:

My ball is centered factory style where there is enough room to sneak a shot on either side of the horseshoe, so yours should be too.
Disagree with hitting it out of the way, you should be able to make it without- however, you do need to hit it out of the way to hit the white standups, one of the modes those are worth 30 million a hit.

Yes, horseshoe can be hit on mine from either flipper, but it's tight. This is a very important shot for modes like "horseshoe extra ball" and a convenient way to pick up 10 Mil immediately after you launch a ball and it is delivered to the left flipper. I've also gotten to where I can hit the white standup in "no way round" from the left flipper by rebounding off the right sling near the top (limits trajectory impact from them kick) without moving the cue ball first.
