Quoted from Psw757:

Could this be a contributing factor as to why they shut it down
so abruptly? I don’t personally buy the lack of parts excuse.
Anyone with a CE having cracking and chipping PF’s?

I have a CE that I received on April 2, 2019 that has the washers already installed.

Quoted from harryhoudini:

WOAH... those are HUGE! That is not what we have seen in other
games, narrow clear washers.

Here is a pic of one of the posts. Feels pretty smooth to
me. Sorry I see now that you were not asking me that.

Quoted from MarZ_78:

Are those metal washers or Mylar?

They are metal. I tried to peel it off but it is stuck pretty good and I'm afraid it will pull up some of the playfield.

Quoted from joseph5185:

What do you mean?
I thought dude at end of page 1 had CE with the same washers?
I am thankful that my game has some kind of washers installed after reading through this horror story.
Those sling posts are UNACCEPTABLE! WTF was JJP doing or thinking.
That is SO sad......

They are the same washers.

Couldn't get it up with my fingernail. I guess I could use a knife or screwdriver!

OP
Quoted from harryhoudini:

Hi washingtonian I would REALLY be interested to know what is under those washers.
1. Are they hiding something? Was there a smaller indentation from the sling posts already there and this is covering them up?
2. Did they create an indentation on the playfield in the larger diameter of the washer?
3. Is there any rippling of the playfield in either diameter?
Wondering if you or joseph5185 would be daring enough to look Would be for science!

I tried again and it's not coming off. A screwdriver would do it but I am pretty sure the playfield would come up with it.
