Quoted from dtowndobe:

Ok, point of clarification, if I may...
Exactly how many games can we add up to get to our high score? I figure I will need at least 4-5 decent games (for me) to beat those scores!!!
Yes, I'm a crappy pinball player!

I've decided I am a flailer.
I just flail at the balls and hope something magic happens

Correct me if I am wrong but my understanding is that you should never use ammonia based cleaners on Invisaglass (like windex) but can use vinegar based cleaners (like windex multipurpose ammonia free cleaner).

Quoted from LTG:

Heat shrink over the ends - they aren't used.
LTG : )

Can you use them for lighted flipper buttons? Are they powered? 5V or 12V?

notice they don't show it flying in the video.

Quoted from spandol:

Yes, I did it like the instructions
I know 1.9 delta is there, but I need to get the full install of 1.01 first. I'll try a different USB stick. Might be he issue.

make sure the hobbit_update folder/files are in the root directory of the USB dire or it doesn't work.

and LTG - some needs to rewrite the update instructions from the JJP website. It references WOZ, has a few things in it that aren't exactly what you see when you do it, and could be a clearer. That said, I did get it done eventually.
