Mechanically and electronically, I've got this game running perfectly. Now I'm digging in a little further and unless my Google-fu has turned into Google-flu, I'm having one heck of a time trying to determine what certain dip switches mean on this table. Some are obvious, eg "Maximum Credits" or "Balls/Game" but others I'm not entirely sure and was hoping someone here could fill me in or point me in the right direction. I've got the manual but it assumes I know what I'm doing.

Switch 22 - Playfield Special. ON is Extra Ball, OFF is Special... Mine is ON, and when I complete 2 olympic games, it lights the extra ball lights and gives me a chance to get an extra ball. I flipped it OFF, same behavior. Any ideas what "Special" means?
Switch 23/24 - High Game To Date Awards. Options are None / None / 2 Replay / 3 Replay. Does this mean if I set it to "2 Replay" and hit a new high score, the game will let me replay twice without adding credits?
Switch 26 - Match. Mine is currently set to "OFF". Does it force it into a multi-player match by default?
Switch 27 - Replay Limit. Mine is currently set to "No Limit" - other option is 1 Replay. What does Replay mean?
Switch 28 - Novelty. From some research this apparently disables extra ball / replay and makes the same strictly focus on achieving a specific score... not sure though.
Switch 29 - Game Mode. Mine is set to "Extra Ball" as opposed to replay. I can trigger an extra ball, but I'm still confused as to whether replay is like a continue to a game after 3 balls have been expended or is simply an additional "free" game.

My table also has an instruction card, it states an extra ball at 600k and 1500k. So far I haven't seen that occur. I usually sail past 600k on most plays and the highest score I've hit is just over 1.3 million on 3 balls.

Thanks, all!
