Quoted from Penguindeity:Does anyone have any information on Stoner Super-Zeta? I got a hold of one, and the only pictures or info I can find online are of my exact machine.

I have never seen one before but I have so many questions! Please please please document this heavily and get it all up on IPDB?
Why is there a credit counter if you just win a "free game"?
What are the other shapes/colours on the backglass? Just decoration or do they have bulbs behind them and indicate things?
Does each ball keep going until it lands in a hole?
the holes light up these pairs:
1 6
1 9
2 10
2 5
8 5
1 7
8 3
9 3
2 4
9 8
Occurence chart:
1: 3
2: 3
3: 2
4: 1
5: 2
6: 1
7: 1
8: 3
9: 3
10: 1
so in your six sots there are 4 shots you MUST hit to win the game, as they only have one hole for that number:
1 6
2 10
1 7
2 4
And that gives you 1, 2, 4, 6, 7, 10. So you need 3, 5, 8, 9, which you need to make out the remaining two shots:
1 9
2 5
8 5
8 3
9 3
9 8
But the only combination that works is 8 5 and 9 3.
So in order to win this game you MUST get all 6 balls into these 6 holes:
1 6
2 10
1 7
2 4
8 5
9 3
If you get a ball into ANY of these 4 holes, you cannot win:
1 9
2 5
8 3
9 8
Absolutely devious.
Assuming even odds on all holes:
6/10 * 5/9 * 4/8 * 3/7 * 2/6 * 1/5
= 0.004761905
= 0.476 % chances of winning
am I doing the math right?
