Antioch, CA
I had 3 balls locked on the sword but they would not roll out.
Is there an adjustment (timing or physical) for that post/pin?
Thanks!

Yeah...balls were magnetized. They must have put the wrong type in as they are brand new.
2 more questions...
Is there anyway to tell what ROM version you have by looking in the settings?
I'm guessing the Balrog when blocking the ramp doesn't always stay at an absolutely perfect angle after being hit with balls?
Thanks!

Quoted from fnosm:I have a used one if you are interested.
PM sent. Thanks!
On mine a big chunk of the glass on the side of the glass flasher bulb blew out (I just got this pin...pre-existing damage).
It's amazing how much damage it caused...not just to the flasher dome but the plastic that holds it

Quoted from Pinzap:Maybe it's been covered in this thread before, but does anyone know what causes that flasher to lock on and overheat? I had the same issue with mine shortly after acquiring the game. Luckily, I was shopping the game first before playing and it locked on after turning it on, so I was able to unplug the flahser bulb quickly and only lost the bulb and not the surrounding plastic. I think I had been replacing some of the insert bulbs with LED's and installing OCD LED Board and thought maybe I shorted a wire somewhere, but couldn't find where. I've left the flasher empty for almost a year now, but would like to find the solution if it's a common problem.

Quoted from FlippyD:+1 for the Arwen ramp! It works well and looks like it's a factory installed part.
Where do I get it? I looked on Pinballlife and couldn't find it
Quoted from AUKraut:Mike @ RedShift LED makes & sells them. Great guy, shipping does take a few days longer as he is in Australia:

Is Lord of the rings one of those pinball machines where the incandescent bulbs have fade and flickering effects that would require an OCD board is switching to LEDs?
I haven't had my Lord the rings at home for a long time and it's about to go on route at The Flipperroom room in Concord and we are trying to get it ready to go.
I saw there was a specific thread on OCD and Lord of the rings, but some people in there were saying they put an OCD on every game they own...so it wasn't clear to me if OCD was a necessity or just an option when using LEDs on LOTR
Thanks!
