Quoted from pinmister:

Stern Rolling Stones is the fastest game I own(especially when powerball is in play). I honestly think Rolling Stones is the fastest game currently out there. I have zero issues with airballs? Great game-I love mine(Mick on a stick ROCKS!). May try and switch out flipper rubbers(may be too high?) I use super bands on all of my pins and I feel they help control the ball better.

I'm a huge fan too - this game gets a bad rep but there do seem to be quite a few of us who really enjoy it.

Mine is fast and furious, rarely get any airballs ... if I do they seem to be from a sling shot. Occasionally it may reject at the Lips ramp.

OP
Quoted from CrazyLevi:

Yes I agree this game is much better than advertised. I don't know who did the main rules but you can tell that there is a bit of a Lyman touch; the modes are well thought out and fun to pursue, and the stackability keeps things interesting. Really enjoying the game.

Yep - its fast, furious fun with a decent ruleset. Challenging modes and the Multiballs have some nice rules to work thru. Unfortunately when it came out most people took one look at Mick on his Stick, the stripped back playfield and decided they weren't gonna get no satisfaction Proves very popular with visitors.

Quoted from CrazyLevi:

People never get tired of complaining.
It's a great looking game. Doesn't look cheap to me. The molded 3D tongue is a nice touch.

Agree - they missed a trick not having the tongue interact with the ball in some way though, moving up/down or whatever. Oh well. It's very interesting reading the design process for the game in Pinball Journal #146 . It changed a lot ! from the initial ideas.
