    Any game that doesn't have a skill shot is missing out on an opportunity.

    The plunger is a unique "feel" aspect of pinball, and should be used to the fullest.

    Half of the games in my collection are missing one. (not missing a plunger, LOL, a skill shot.)

    If there were 2.0 releases for all the machines in my collection, the skill shot issue would be remedied simply by disallowing a 1-2-3 lane change until the first 1-2-3 lane switch is registered, at that point, allow for it, when the pops take over and try to help you score another lane.

    Quoted from Goodtry:

    Building Jackpots on any number of System 11s

    Agree, such a shame there's no way to turn it off. Makes sense for location, but nothing else. (tournament, home)

    Quoted from TheLaw:

    There isn't? You can set HS jackpot @ 750,000 at least.

    Right, you can cap the jackpot to minimize the impact.

    Quoted from tamoore:

    Whirlwind:
    1. "pops to nowhere" -- upper pops don't randomize ball movement, score for you (barely), or drain on you. They are completely a waste of time. One of the worst pop pens in pinball.

    Fixed!
