Hi there.

New to the club (and the hobby in general) and LOTR is one of 2 machines I own.

Wondering if anyone else has this on their machine:

My Merry orbit, when coming towards the flippers, is such that it will throw the ball directly between both flippers and requires nudging every time in order to save the ball. I've checked my levels multiple times to ensure that's not a factor. Some times it looks as if it hits the "spot ring" target, though other times not -- either way it ends up with the same result (and as such think its not actually hitting that target edge).

Is this common on all machines? I'm thinking it shouldn't require nudging every_ time should it?

Thanks -- I'll try to adjust this first and see how it goes.

Thankfully I was able to adjust the target without trimming it, but after removing and reinstalling the target multiple times before I got it just right... I was getting nervous I might have to.

The right orbit now goes direct to the right flipper! Thanks for the advice.

And here I was feeling good about breaking 100M...
