Hi Everybody! I have a question about when the spinners should be lit in Silverball Mania. The rule card says that spelling "MANIA" lights the spinners. I am finding that this is kind of true, but not 100%. It mostly happens when a ball drains that I have a question. I can't recall all of the exact incidents I notice it happening, but here is one that just happened.

I light all of MANIA and the spinners are lit. I have some letters missing from SILVERBALL. OK, this sounds normal. Ball drains.

Next ball spinners are not lit even though MANIA is still lit up. I complete SILVERBALL and all the lights go out so the targets are ready to hit again. Spinners are now lit again.

So why did the spinner lights go out at the start of ball 2? Why did they relight after I completed SILVERBALL.

I am trying to get a handle on the logic behind when the spinners should be lit. Anyone have any input?

Ok, I just played another game. Ball 2 I complete SILVERBALL MANIA, the lights reset. Spinners stay lit. I light MAN A. Ball Drains.

Ball 3 starts, only MAN A is lit but the Spinners remain lit.
