Quoted from Chitownpinball:I dunno, playing the game and not knowing w t f is going on and why was weird at first. At least now I know why he says “the sun is shining, but the ice is slippery”. Otherwise I was like “wtf is he saying???” Lol
I’m trying to figure out what the call out is the says “what in the ___ was that” I can’t make it out.

Help from the group trying to adjust my upper right flipper. Can’t tell what is right. I have the flipper set so if you hit a perfect left loop it feeds the right tip of the flipper but if your slightly off or a slow roller it tends to bounce off the bat either resulting in a drain or left flipper feed. Is there a correct method? It looks aligned well but still seeming to have an issue game to game.

This is how the game was designed as a shot from right flipper through left orbit and past the upper flipper will return the ball back to the lower right flipper.
I also looked at the game flyer and promo video (from 1994) and confirmed the game in these pics have the flipper flat against the metal ball guide.
This does in fact make the Kahn hole shot quite difficult. I suspect this is by design.
Of course - it is your game and you can set the flipper angle however you want. Many on here have changed this. But i did a good amount of digging on it.
Interesting... I’ll have to do some digging and playing with the setting I think my right rail is actually a bit off. It’s seems like it moves a bit so it may be loose. When I shop it out completely I’ll try and adjust it but enjoying playing it too much right now.

Quoted from pacman11:Having an issue with my Shadow. The upper playfield paddle that slides back and forth to hit the ball moves slow when pushing the left flipper compare to pushing the right flipper. Any thoughts?
I had this exact problem and mine was broken wire on the opto. Re soldered and it fixed it.
