Quoted from dzoomer:Of note, levelling using the PF glass is not levelling.
Well, unless you have a key to the coin door, it's kind of hard to level the playfield of a game on location.

I finally got a chance to play an LE last night at a host's house in my local league, and I did not experience ANY drains SDTM from the pop bumpers. Curiously, I did get some SDTM drops from the Prison magnet, which I did not experience on the Pro model that I recently played on location, so I suspect the machine may have been running dated code.
Quoted from DCfoodfreak:Just played my best game yet. I am literally exhausted .

Wow! Nice score.
Quoted from chuckwurt:Geeze Louise. Did anyone see the PAPA qualifying scores for TWD yet? Keith Elwin has almost 700 million. that is ridic. He had some insane scores at LAX too.
Well, Keith just won PAPA for the 6th time, too. Coincidence? I think not!
Quoted from BMore-Pinball:The pro you played must not be level, once I levled mine pop drains went to about 3% from about 45%
FWIW, the pin Rob is referring to is Jim Belsito's pin at Lake Alice Trading Company in Riverside, California. I understand they use it all the time in league play, and that's a pretty competitive league with several top players. Nevertheless, I can confirm that, at least a couple of months ago, it drained SDTM from the pops way too frequently. Rob and I played it together one night, and we counted 7 out of 9 balls out of the pops go SDTM. It occurred so frequently that we eventually stopped counting and moved on to other nearby machines (e.g., METLE, WH2O). Very frustrating. However, I played an LE a few weeks ago in my local league, and I didn't experience any problems with drains from the pops. Just a couple of drains SDTM from the prison magnet, but I think it was running older code. Totally different experience, to say the least.
