Quoted from mof:My firepower has a dead spot if I plunge softly aiming for the "E" rollover. If the ball comes to rest JUST before the one-way gate (which I removed), then the ball is stuck.
I am thinking about driving a nail in that spot.

My opinion, put the gate back so the game operates as intended...and you don't have to poke another hole in the field to correct its behavior. Though looking at my FP I'm not sure how it's getting stuck there, you've got the curve of the ball guide, and a post with a rubber ring, only a very small gap. I guess even with the gate in place as original, it's still theoretically possible to hang the ball there if you are doing that super soft plunge attempting to catch the far right rollover lane...but the chances would be super slim at best.
