The GB Pro at my location doesn't have any noticeable SDTM problem. Honestly the biggest SDTM danger seems to come from cradle attempts. Otherwise drains are usually from hitting the metal rails and bouncing down the outlanes, or air balls sailing above past everything on their way down. This table has been the #1 earner in the weeks it has been here. I'd say it's less frustrating for civilians than AC/DC or Walking Dead.

Definitely agree with the right ramp criticism though.

I'm an average player and put up 1.3 bil the other day. Another average player put up 1.6 bil the next evening.

90% of the time the ball exits out the right side from the pops where sdtm is almost impossible.

Yessir, and when the ball goes out the left from the pops, usually it ends up in play to the right flipper

I hope everyone removes their center posts, carrot flippers, and outlane rubberbands now and plays some real pinball.

So I had the strangest game happen to me the other night:

Playing on the new code, I played a solid game, it took awhile, I didn't think I was doing that spectacularly but I was doing well. I wasn't progressing up the modes all that well, probably did two of each of them or so. I didn't get storage multiball until I was on my final ball. When I did get it, I stayed in it for a long time and started getting add a balls. I'm pretty sure I was at 94 ghosts or so when I started the multiball, so I must have crossed over 100 during it. I played all the balls for a decent amount of time (but not spectacular afaik).

When I drained to end my game, I was awarded storage multiball champ at 250 million-something and then Grand Champ at FOUR BILLION-something! The previous highest score on the new code was in the 500 million range, and the previous highest score on the original code was 1.5 billion or so.

This seems crazy to me. Unfortunately I'd had a few beers before playing so the whole thing kind of took me by surprise. 4 billion seems crazy. I put the game in test mode the next day to see if there were any switches firing when they shouldn't be or anything else but couldn't come up with anything.

Anyone else experienced something like this?
