Quoted from tiesmasc:
Agreed that my settings need some changes to increase difficulty (and the reason I included them so people could comment). Curious what settings you use though? And also playfield slope?
I'm thinking of going to pure default settings except for ball save (maybe 6 or 8 seconds) and extra ball instead of free game... and 7 degree pitch.
Also have found that my witch isn't registering hits near the bottom so I'm going to have to determine how to adjust that...

Mine is set up about as steep as it can get. Haven't checked pitch but levelers are all the way out. I don't have a ball save which I do think makes the game really hard as shots to the witch are really dangerous.

I have my game set at 6.5 degrees and every once in a great while get a ball hang up. Does setting it to 7 degrees help this? It gets hung up on skill shots without a full plunge towards the pop bumpers, ie. going for skill shots. Rare but annoying when happens. Also still get shots that rattle around despite all attempts and suggestions in adding a plastic and making other adjustments to attempt to make plunger shots not hit or rattle around some times.

Where is the best place to buy a rubber ring kit for Woz? I just had a rubber break at the very top of the playfield (right underneath where you have the rollovers to increase your bonus before the pop bumpers. Thought it was odd that the rubber was white when it looks like every other rubber in the game is black. Maybe the 1st owner had one break and changed it out with white?

It's white deliberately. For the right amount of bounce.

I recommend Titan competition silicone, especially for that ring that takes a beating from the slingshot.

I'll second that. The website is great - I just ordered one of the user-defined rubber kits for my WOZ (the "easy-to-install" kit) and it was shipped out the next day. It looks great installed so I am planning to order more to install in some of the more challenging spots.

The online WOZ manual is a great resource if you want to construct your own kit. (pages C76-77)

This has been posted elsewhere but should be in this thread as well.
An awesome video of play with the new code 5.05 by a very skillful player, Karl Deangelo.
Video setup is also high quality and easy to watch. He almost makes getting to SOTR look easy.
His game play and comments will give everyone some hints on strategies and techniques. I have watched it twice
» YouTube video

that was one of the most impressive pinball things ive ever seen. I learned a lot.

Quoted from Nokoro:
Hi all. I'm seriously considering getting a Standard WOZ. I have a few questions.

In the US, what is the typical distributor price I should expect to pay for the standard version NIB delivered?

Finally, I need to free up some more funds and am looking at April of next year to purchase. Do you know if they will still be available NIB at that time?

Thanks in advance for the feedback!

Bump.

There will certainly still be WOZ NIB but what you will pay is uncertain. As for pricing I would call a distributor and ask. I use Buddy Herron from Mountain Entertainment http://www.buddyspinball.com He goes by Doughslinger on Pinside.

Thanks for the response. I didn't really want to start calling distributors yet because I'm several months away from making a purchase. I was just wondering what the ballpark distributor price for a standard was.

According to the manual page B-22 there is a replay boost setting and there is a score award boost setting. You can turn those to off.

I liked the replay setting boosting for a replay, and set scoring levels for an extra ball. Just because I really liked the replay light show, but didn't want it every game.

To me if you are going to have an extra ball award it should be for a fixed score to give comparable results between each game you play. For when a replay is awarded I agree it does not matter when or if it gives it out since it does not affect your score.

Joined the club last weekend! Picked up a used standard in like new shape. A quick witch adjustment and it plays like new. I don't think the witch was working out of the box. Maybe part of why they sold it. Who knows
Loving my WOZ. It's like Disneyland in a box with the music and lights!!!
