Hello, I just found a Sharkey's on location by my house, and I really enjoyed playing it. I had a question I'm hoping someone with a solid understanding of the game could answer. At times I had the upper right loop (where the BW drop target is) lit for a lock and had the red arrow insert going, but if I hit the loop, it would just go all the way back around to the upper left flipper and not score anything. Upon further inspection I noticed there was a slot for a switch (switch was gone, see pic) and also a switch gate (couldn't tell if it was registering or not). Does anyone know if hitting this loop when it is lit will lock the ball or give other scoring?
I was able to lock balls and defeat opponents by hitting the other lock shot under the 8 ball, so it didn't ruin the experience, I was just curious about the loop. Any insight would be much appreciated! Very fun game!
