    My thought is any game that has a spinner that scores more than 1/10/100/1000.

    Say Harlem Globetrotters for example, which can do a 200 or 2000 point spinner. I'm struggling to think how you'd pull that off in an EM even with a big chunk of hardware.

    Quoted from koji:

    easy, just a different relay for each scoring exception circuit.

    I assume you'd need the score motor to send two pulses to the score reel per spinner hit. The score motor would have no way to keep up with the speed of the spinner. I guess I'm not seeing what you mean.

    Quoted from bingopodcast:

    Score reels or lighted scoring?

    Good point, it could be done easily with lit scoring.

    Edit: Having a spinner with lit scoring would be super weird though
