    Quoted from golfingdad1:

    If you are an operator and run leagues should it be your responsibility that the games play 100% or is it ok to have the attitude of, everybody's got to play the same game .
    Please , let me know both operators and league players .

    I would take my league elsewhere immediately.

    Quoted from clg:

    It's impossible to get all games to play 100% either on location or home

    This is 100% untrue. It’s entirely possible. Certain things are okay, but for the most part, any game you use for competition should be 100% working.

    Quoted from clg:

    Going in yes you should go over them and make sure they are working but things break while being played.

    Happens all the time, but I’ve ran plenty of tournaments where the games are 100% beginning to end. So not sure where the impossible comment came from.

    Quoted from clg:

    By 100 percent I assumed that to mean all of the time. It happens sometimes but certainly not always.

    Each tournament is its own data set. That’s where we’re disconnected I think. The point is, no one should have to deal with games for a tournament. They should have quality games, at all times for a tournament.

    Quoted from golfingdad1:

    Sorry , dont understand this . As a player or operator?
    Cant just leave town you live in .

    I mean if the location isn’t willing to fix the games, have a league somewhere else. Have a home league where a different person (or the same person) hosts each session.

    Quoted from golfingdad1:

    We really dont have a choice ,
    The operator is a Great guy.
    I think hes overwhelmed.
    Hes the reason we even have league .
    I'm just frustrated. I play my ass off and something always happens .

    Why can’t the league members help?

    Quoted from fumbleflippers:

    Good players can adapt their play on games that aren't 100%,. Can't make a jackpot on the ramp cause the flipper is too weak? Get into multi and karom a ball up the ramp. Adapt your play to accommodate the shortcomings on the machine. Condition doesn't matter as long as its the same for all players.

    It most certainly matters when your player base gets turned off to your tournaments because of the condition of the games though. I think that is why this thread was started.
