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!

Quoted from Pimp77:So I've been having some odd air balls when shooting the left ramp...so much that the ball would bounce entirely OVER the ramp at times. I thought it was the ramp flap, so I spent some time adjusting that. Still happened. Thought it was catching the "O" lock button somehow and launching so I adjusted that so it sits lower and requires less pressure to depress. Still had air balls. So I looked closely at the entire ball path and noticed something odd...the flipper rubbers seemed to be sitting low on the flipper. I took a close look and they were seated fine, but they still didn't look right. I grabbed some new flipper rubber and compared. The stock flipper rubber is about an 1/8" SHORTER than a normal one. I have the pf protector installed as well, so couple that little bit of extra height with the 1/8" shorter flipper rubber you get air balls. I ripped that crap off all 3 flippers and replaced with regular ones. The whole game feels better now and no more air balls!!
I recommend every single Hobbit owner to do the same...replace the flipper rubbers!
Awesome feedback!
Can we convince you to generate a Titan oring/rubber list?!

Luckily, I suppose, TH will have a temporary spot in our front room, about 5ft from the front door. Unload it from the truck bed, then use the dolly to get it into the house - one step, then another half step over the door threshold - set up shall commence!! Won't get moved into our basement until I'm done with some renovations. I envision a delay in the renovation schedule due to the new acquisition!!! Vicious circle!
Last night, got an extra ball special - had to hit a roaming drop target, then once you hit that, you have to hit both the Radagast hole and Balin hole to collect the extra ball. I was surprised I hit the roaming target... then I drained before I get even attempt the hole shots!!!
Pretty damn cool sequence to get an extra ball! Kudos to Keith and Ted for that!

Got 1.6M last night! Knocked my daughter completely off the high score list - she's not happy about that...
Game is incredible so far...! So very glad I didn't bail during the wait. There were a number of times I was ready to make the call and get my money back. I did learn that I'm not a preorder kinda guy - so I won't be doing that again!!
Looking forward to the next code update - the modes, light show, sounds, etc. are all fantastic already - only going to get better!
