Quoted from henrydwh:

I still want to know how a ball disappears! That's crazy!

It once happened in my TOM. Ball goes in trunk, then a thunk, then ball is missing. Found it in the bottom of the cabinet. It took me like 10 minutes under the hood to figure out how it happened, turns out that it is just possible for the ball to get over the edge of the trough near an insert. I mean just possible. Like the ball had to somehow bounce in a spot where it doesn't look like anything should cause it to bounce, and if it had bounces like 1/100 of an inch different in any axis, it could not get out of the trough.
