Hey guys I'm totally new to MMR never really played the game in the past...

Anyways from my understanding (I could be wrong) when the gate opens - is it just 1 shot to make the castle collapse?

Sometimes I'm having to shoot the ball through the gate into the castle around 3 times to cause the castle to collapse.

I've also noticed at times when I shoot through the left wall it doesn't say ball 1 locked etc..
Do you have to activate ball lock first for it to take affect?

Just unboxed mine yesterday. They've done such an amazing job!

Ive just had a look and can't seem to see a switch behind the gate besides in the green moat. It looks like theres Opto's at the Door entrance?

What exactly triggers the castle to collapse?

Ok thanks. I just worked it out.. Its the switch in the moat. Mines not centred properly and sometimes the ball passes to the left of it and misses the switch!
Tried to adjust it to no avail

That too is the reason why I sometimes don't get ball locks when hitting through the left wall.

I did and Lloyd said to adjust the switch..
Have written him back letting him know its not working.

All good! I just fixed it!

I had to bend the switch a certain way to make it actually hit the button. So thats what the issue was.. It wasn't pushing down on the switch button under the wire..

Uuuurgh been years since I've had to do any of this stuff..
Its all flooding back now.. GET ME OUT OF HERE! hahaha.

IT FEELS LIKE A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT GAME! I NO LONGER HAVE TO GET THE BALL INTO THE CASTLE 3 OR SO TIMES TO MAKE IT COLLAPSE!

*Just a wee excited*

I just donated some $ to pinside because this site rules. And thanks to everyone for chirping in some solutions.. MM is the best game ever made!

Has anyone got any tips to try and turn my household OFF in playing MMR?

Man they will not stop playing it! Such a winner!

Haha!

Its funny you guys are mentioning the knocker.
My mother who is in her mid 70's plays it allot, and every time it goes off she literally almost has a heart attack.. Hmmm now maybe thats one way of getting one person in the household off the game! hehe *jokes*

NOOB query!

Whats this bit for? Is it a ball diverter?
Can I remove it? (or will that cause major ball drains) Hmmmm ball drains.

Thanks mate!

(I won't talk about ball drains the way I'm thinking of them)

Mines special.

Awesome!

Apparently the color chip will still be needed for it to work.

Its real! Upgrade..
