    When I read the title of this thread of the game room being "violated", I had visions of a pet getting access to the area and leaving a special package in the room, or a person doing the same out of spite, perhaps in the corner somewhere. I was surprised when I read that the visitor left a high score or something of the kind and that was the "violation". A high score can easily be removed by resetting those scores, so this does not seem to be a big issue to me. All that has to be done is a new high score made to wipe of the "offending" party. Just seemed a little surprising that this became a violation of anything.

    Quoted from MK6PIN:

    Yea…intent was just for some fun reflection stuff from some Pinsiders, realizing “ violating” may have been taken too literally.
    Think I’ll let him be “the man” the next time I’ve got to service a few of these, lol….

    Seems like this is like more of a challenge to show who the "the man" really is.
    I would want to visit this guys house and place my high scores on his games in addition to removing his from my games.
    Competition is usually a good thing as long as it stays friendly.
    My high score entries would just be my initials.
    No further "manly" inserts would be required.
    :
    On a related topic, I thought it was strange when a friend of mine decided not to do some code updates on some machines because the high scores would be removed during that update.
    I found that to be rather strange since the high scores could just be repeated later on, assuming they were not a fluke of some kind in the first place.
    However, the owner did not agree with that logic and declined those code updates so the high scores would remain.
    I could not quite understand that conclusion because I would want my machines to have the latest code updates and the high scores were probably just a recent record anyway.
    Just my thoughts...
