Was having problems with my right ramp. About 40% of the time the ball would fly off the ramp. Tried going with a 7.9 degree pitch on the playfield but still did it but less often. Ball would shoot out of the ramp and get stuck between the skull pile and side. Couldn’t figure out how to stop it so made my own little mod. It doesn’t look great but it works. No more rocket launcher balls.
Quoted from weaverj:i have had a decent amount of success just flattening out the ramp entrance flap. it was curled up a bit, causing ball launches. a lot better now, but still have a few skull pile shots here and there.
My flap is pretty curved. Never thought of that. However if I can completely eliminate the air balls I’d rather have that.
Ok, you Scared Stiff fans. Any suggestions on what I can mount on my “air ball” protector on my spider ramp? I’m going to shorten it a few inches and shave down the sides to be exactly same size as the ramp. Goal is to completely eliminate air balls and use the plexiglass as a mounting shelf for something. I have a friend with a laser cutter so once I figure it out I can reproduce a few if others want one.
Quoted from spfxted:...and get a Terrifying Decal for the dinker....
Two different ones came with the game. Not too pleased with the way they look at first glance but will spend some time on it later. Also need to get a new trunk decal. Right now I want to get the game tuned in.
One other question. The “cast a spell” stand up targets on the left. What do they do when you complete them?
Quoted from Reality_Studio:Reminds me how much I suck at pinball lol, I've had the game for a while and 16 million is my top score. Still haven't completed the stiiff-o-meter.
Quoted from spfxted:That's ok. This is my 4th Scared Stiff machine and I only got through the Stiff o Meter once! Er, and yes, on 5 ball!
When ever I get a new game and in learning phase. I lower the outposts as tight as they can go and set the game to award extra ball for replay. Everything else is set to factory. Never do 5 ball because most games will switch all the setting to harder then the factory setting. You get more balls but it makes it harder to complete the goal.
Made it to Stiff-o-meter twice now but only got about halfway finished.
Quoted from weaverj:put some 3d bats on top of your airball guard. if you improve the mounting technique, i'd be interested.
I like that idea since there are bats on the ramp. Dangit! My buddy with the laser cutter actually just traded his 3D printer for the cutter.
Will have to see what I can come up with.
Test link. Not sure if this will work.

Let me know if anyone can see the video.

Quoted from spfxted:Says Not Available....
Thanks. I did a live video to Facebook but it won’t let me save it. Anyway it was of my buddy beating the Stiff-O-meter.
Quoted from VectorGamer:<<<--- Buddy
Edit: That video is posted in a closed group.
Yeah but not on our pages.
Quoted from spfxted:Serious! I just got used to changing bulbs! AND, I can take the glass off and raise the playfield by myself!
Heck my buddy has owned his EBD for 15 years and never knew how to take the lockdown bar off until I showed him 3 months ago. You're way ahead.
Quoted from spfxted:Got ya! Does anyone know the difference between the Marcos ones and the German ones?
Can you send me the link for the German ones. Need a pair also.
65 and still looks good.
