I like the idea of Sim card collection with BB. I don;t know if I'd say the BB target is hit that much more than the scoop? That's an interesting question. And each time increasing shot #s to get it lit...do you want to blow it early if it's costing 6 hits to relight it later?
And the game is still new. You know how you get a new TZ owner an they say "That piano is a tough shot!" when if you've been playing forever is like the easiest shot? The shot isn't as flat/flush as piano and visibly isn't as clear; but again it would be interesting to see how easy it gets to us.

Yes; Flow

Yet sneaky ball steal

I three it up the ramp, not playing, to test the BB and it flew back there.

Still new but mine has had off/on troubles with shooter lane since game 1

Ha I thought I was losing my mind with the Bob awards, but it was the bottom 2 lights hooked up wrong from factory. I was wondering why it was giving me weird stuff

Run a single LED test mode for those lights...they're all marked "SIGN - ___."

Which brings me to my biggest wish list item, let me goddamn navigate left in any menu to go from the first to the last item listed. I don't want o scroll down through 500 options if i don't have to

Actually I did, but because i was working under the hood a bunch I just pushed the apron wireform down a bit...so just raise it up a bit and it'll be golden.

Lot of little tweaks here and there. Had to move my lock wireform out a lot to get it to go nicely to the left flipper.

This for sure...my game does it all the time; need to get in there and adjust it myself.

Yes it will most likely. Some more than others, mostly simple things here and there. This doesn't always mean you need to be a real in depth tinkerer though.
The issue it's a complex machine with thousands of tiny little parts in it, and quite frankly they don't always like traveling thousands of miles in a truck or boat. It isn;t like a PlayStation console which are just a collection of computer boards with nothing happening, there are real parts moving around all the time, and being hit with a steel ball zooming around.

You'll also find the tinkering is a part many people like. And luckily, one of the main points of Pinside is poeple helping each other tinker with them and fix them if they need it.

It's almost like the EMP is causing irregularities in the Electro Magnetic field

I mean it would be more "irregular" changing each time I agree.

Fix? I didn't see the right inlane hurry up noted anywhere; what's the deal with it? It says to hit the right ramp but there is no red light lit on that shot.

Jesus what a battle to get in the back box... Anyway my game smoked the J106 fuse and I don't have any of these baby fuses... What's everyone using like an old school silver dime?

Should be lit A LOT

Left inlane will light hurry up there
Hit enough drones on the right
Many modes use it
bob mode lottery uses it etc etc...there's quite a few so it should be too hard.

Personally I would agree with you but it seems to vary greatly by machine. There's plenty of people, myself included, whoms right flipper seems pretty soft. Mine is turned up all the way and still can;t make many left loop to upper flipper shot; and never strong. Lot of left ramp rejects, you gotta hit it on the left side of the ramp, but i haven't seen others.

Yeah I forget who but someone said a full flipper rebuild did the trick on the right, and that's what I plan on doing. I already got in there and took it apart replaced the sleeve but that didn't do anything.
I'm not at the point of changing coil strength as this issue seems to be in the minority. People have also suggested there might be something hanging the ball up in the orbit but the flipper feels weak before that to me.

Apprently it chips no matter what so whom knows.

My upper is fine also.

Let's grow up a bit and believe in yourself.
