    If the problem does not take away from the playability of the machine, I will generally look the other way. If it DOES affect how I play the game (say for instance the yellow light for the bunker scoop on JP isn't working, that can severely cripple you), I will nearly halt the game entirely from being played until I fix it.

    Perfection is my enemy. Little things aren't a huge deal.

    Quoted from Butterflygirl24:

    Fixing small or not so small issues on pins is normally a weekend job around here...so I have pads of sticky notes laying around in various spots...if I play a game and find an issue, I sticky note it to be fixed when we get a chance. Likewise if friends are over, they grab a sticky note and write down any issues that they find. Then when the issue is fixed, we throw the sticky note away! It works nicely around here...

    Well damn with 45 games, I'd be happy my sanity would even be in one piece . Three alone can keep me moving, but 45... ?? Kudos to your for your bravery or insanity - whichever you want to call it .
