Owned a Flash and miss it, great game.

But when I did have it, I added more 'flash' to the pop bumper area.

Quoted from caseydanger:

Hi there! Not sure if this is the right place to post this, so please let me know if I need to move it!
I picked up a Flash about a month ago that was mostly in decent condition. I cleaned and waxed it, put on new rubbers, new ball, cleaned the drop contacts and got them working correctly, reset the shooter rail angle to send the ball the right way, and last but not least replaced a busted rollover insert.
Anyway, after all that, I just don’t feel like the game is setup right? Perhaps it’s me just not being good at it? I understand the rule set and I can make the shots I need to make but it just feels like the game is designed to send the ball screaming down the drain or the ball is magnetized to the outlanes so most games last a handful of minutes. It’s super frustrating and I kinda regret buying it most nights I’m playing it.
I guess what I’m getting at is, what exactly is a “properly setup” Flash supposed to be? I see people throw that phrase around and never explain what it means. I have the shooter rail set according to the manual specs (half pull sends the ball up the figure eight path), table angle is at 3.5° like the manual says, the outlane posts are in the “conservative” position, and the flippers don’t feel particularly weak. Am I missing something?

You suck.
