2. If you don't know youtube well, the quality will increase to HD over time if that's what you uploaded

3. The pics are atrocious. You probably want to throw some close ups in there, eXpecially of the head magnet, and some cab/head pics, and then 10 more

I uploaded the video cause I didn't really feel like taking a bunch of pictures. Figured it would be easier. I deleted the video shortly after this post cause it wasn't in HD. I tried to get it to 720p but no luck so I just uploaded it again at 360p... Sorry, u must of saw this post in the middle of all the BS. Thanks for viewing

Another reason why I didn't put much effort in this post is because I was expecting to sell/trade at tpf. Figured who ever wanted it could take a look for themselves. I had some nice trade offers but wasn't interested since they were games I could play locally

I played it at TPF. Might I suggest if you're hoping to sell/trade you rebuild the flippers? No beginner wants to buy something they are going to have to work on right away. Cosmetically it was pretty nice. I was surprised it was the only Ripley's Believe It or Not! at the show. Zero Scared Stiff either, also surprising.

What's wrong with the flippers? I'll address it if there's an issue but I don't see anything wrong with them. I can zip through the temple ramp with speed and ease from both flippers. Please let me know what adjustments I can make cause Im not seeing it. I can upload a video of game play to show how much speed the ball travels at any shot on the playfield. So many machines at TPF were unlevel, I think the floor caused that issue, maybe that contributed to ur thoughts on the flippers... Who knows

I couldn't make any of the shots without a perfect hit. Could have been low line voltage (not unusual at a show), pitch or leveling as you suggested. If it works fine at your place it's probably fine in the new owner's place too.

I think I just figured it out. I've always played the game with the coil pulse setting turned to high. Right before I left for TPF I did a factory reset. After I set up the game at TPF I played one ball and noticed the game had a different feel to it. I noticed the pitch was kind of off so I just figured that's what was causing it to feel different. After I made all the shots solidly I released her out into the wild. I still haven't played it since I've been back. Gonna head home after work and play on normal and high settings to see if I can notice the difference. Thanks for the input. Kind of bummed that I didn't have the optimum settings adjusted for the show. Oh well
