Quoted from arcyallen:

Well, I just bought my very first pin. And yeah, it's a NF so I'm pretty psyched! It's pretty much ready to go with minimal issues (I need to adjust the plunge to hit the drop down) but I do have a question: What are these clearly pointy things? I can't see a real benefit to them, but surely they have a function. I look forward to a reply that a) is enlightening, and b) makes me feel silly for asking [quoted image]

Quoted from Seven9er:

I was "fortunate" enough to pick up a player's condition No Fear last week. It's my first ever pin and I have next to no knowledge of diagnosing and fixing issues. I'm having issues with the upper flipper. When I start a game the flipper is completely dead, then will start to twitch, then flip but not hold, and then finally fully flip "normal" albeit with a noticeable delay when the flipper button is pushed. Anyone have suggestions as to where/what I should take a closer look at?
