Quoted from 27dnast:

i500 owners -
Do you find your games have relatively little pop bumper action? My game always seems to send balls through the center rollover lane (above the pops), and trickles out with one or two bumper strikes. Wondering if anyone else experiences this.. what kind of tweaks help (outside of adjusting bumper sensitivity)

It’s odd that sometimes I get tons of pops and other times almost none. I get a mix of both.

Tweaking them can be an annoying process. Bring the blades too close together and you have vibrations setting them off

Quoted from 27dnast:

It’s not a gap problem on my game. The ball literally seems to avoid pop contact as it (routinely) falls through the middle lane. I’m sure that reads weird. But true

Yeah I hear you. Mine does that a lot, what could one possibly do about that? Ive had it hit none of them multiple times and summed it up to bad luck

Hey guys any way to pick an award quickly without waiting for the timer to go to zero

I found taking the 15 million to be the safest bet, but I think the timer needs to run down either way

Quoted from Djshakes:

Hi everyone, after hours I finally shopped out my game and it is rocking! After owning a ton of titles I think this one is one of the best. So fast and fun.
I have a question. I noticed my race track acted as a shaker motor prior to shopping. I reassembled and I don't get the vibrations like I used to. Any recommendations? I noticed there were two large washers and one small one for each of the two bolts that holds the assembly to the back board. I basically stacked all the washers together on each bolt and then ran the bolt through the backboard and unit. The manual doesn't say which way they should be mounted. Is there an order for washers, unit, backboard, etc. or should I just loosen the bolts? I would love to have it shaking away when I invite people over tonight.

I’ve tightened the car assembly before, over time it comes lose and the machine shakes. Unless you have lock washers or bolts, it will start shaking again

Quoted from delt31:

does that really work like that? if you loosen the screws it would shake even more? I guess I can try that out.

I certainly didn’t losen them intentionally, they just came lose over time.
