When the playfield is up, and you are looking at a bank of targets from the underside.

Shopping my MM and reinstall the three red targets. Playfield down, they were Top, Bottom, Mid. Raised the playfield and inadvertently switched the top and bottom, mistaking the top for the mid. Lowered playfield, tested targets and now I had Bottom, Top, Mid. Anyway I think I made one more wrong ordering before sitting down with a pencil and paper and figuring it out.

Felt like I was playing Mystery Spot Multiball on TSPP - "I'm all confused," D'OHDan

What?

I have done the same thing on a smaller scale

The top is the bottom when it's upside down. Except, of course, if you are upside down, where then the top would be the top. Right? Or would that be left now?

the top is still farthest away... up or down lol

ZZ Top?

I've desoldered the wrong switch before. It's easy to get confused when the playfield is up.

Masking tape and a sharpie to label is what I do

What happens if u look at it in a mirror upside down?

When everything right is wrong again. I use top of playfield, rather than distance from floor.

Divided by PI, of course.

Good suggestion. Thanks.
