Quoted from Slate:This thread was started "to let people know about the updates" from CG.
Since that is the case, let's talk about how inconsistent CGC has been when addressing this issue with different owners who's playfield's have identical insert issues. Because, in reality, different owners who have open tickets with CGC have been given wildly different "updates". Apparently Some owner's have been offered playfields at cost, others have been offered free color upgrades and some, it would seem, have been given replacement playfields.
Everyone else is waiting on plastic inserts and a software fix which, by the way, I was told directly from CGC will not include the ability to adjust the brightness of the LED's. It will only dim them.
The real issue that I have with CGC is the inconsistency with which they are addressing these tickets. Those users who are recieving replacement playfields will have the future value of their machine protected while everyone else will take a hit.
