Guys,

I have both of my right pop bumper lights out.

First one at top right would light for a few reboots, then on maybe

the third boot would pop the bulb, I could see it flash and die.

Second on the lower right started getting ULTRA bright and staying

that way for the last few days, and is now out. Bulb looks like it

fairly violently blew: no black mark inside, but filament is in

pieces.

Any ideas on what could be causing this? Game is otherwise 100%

Best,

Matt

The icing on my 50th birthday cake was the perfect surprise. My wife,

who talked me into owning my first pin, knew I did not want a surprise

party. But, she shocked me when THIS cake arrived during my

celebration at "Playland Not at the Beach" in El Cerrito, Ca.

Hope Beemus is reading.

I had about the best night of pinball playing I've ever had at SS

Billiards tonight. I was about a half inch in several cases away from

it being super-duper-awesome­. Still it was pretty good!

I've only Battled for Kingdom once on Lloyd's MM. Tonight I had a

couple good long games and I got it lit This was in a game where I

only had 3 million at the start of my third ball. I shot at the castle

from the right flipper to start BFK and the ball did that thing where

it goes up and starts to turn the corner inside the castle, but runs

out of gas and then comes right back and goes STDM to end the game.

Heartbreaker! I shoulda yanked the game harder to try to save it but I

wasn't thinking straight.

So I ended with 169,000,000, which is a good score on his machine.

Best score of the last six months is 185,000,000 or so.

Then I went over to AFM. I've never ruled the universe on LLoyd's

machine, and if you've ever played it you know how fast and mean it

is. It's set to Hard, steep, and the outlanes are wide open.

I lit RTU and missed about 6 shots at the hole before draining to end

the game. 17 billion didnt even get me on the high score list. Bummer.

I played another game and had a great first ball. Eventually I lit RTU

while still in the extra balls I earned on my first ball. I started it

on my second shot to the hole, and, of course, somehow managed to NOT

complete RTU!!! That's only happened to me once before (I have an

AFM.) So that sucked.

But I still had some balls left so I kept going and got back around to

where I just needed Super Jackpot to RTU again. I've never RTU'd twice

in the same game, even on my own game. Well---- I started multiball

but couldnt complete the super jackpot, and drained out my last two

balls trying to get it started again.

I ended with 36,000,000, which was good for 1st place on the score

list. Paul Madison has GC with 90-something billion.

What a night that would have been if I BFK'd and RTU'd. Even so I'm

dang psyched about the evening. I am lucky to have such a good place

to play so close to where I live.

Thanks Lloyd!

Interesting.

The wire connections are present and

are shown on the schematics with a

dashed line.

There are even (2) pilot holes in the

bottom board to screw down the counter.

The holes have not been used and there are

no indents on the board to indicate that a

counter was ever installed.

I'll try once more before I pitch them - I have 2 original Bally pf

glasses that are decent (not perfect) that I am giving away. I bought

new glass and want rid of the old ones. Got a pin you want to store

and want to keep dust/dirt off the pf..there you go! All you have to

do is pick it up.

I'd rather see someone use them than me breaking them...

Does anyone have a modesty patch for EATPM that they would be willing

to sell? It turns out that one of my favorite parts of this game can

be offensive to some people. One of my wives clients and her husband

want to buy a pinball machine so I invited them over to play some

games and see if they would be interested in buying one of my games.

The man was immediately drawn to Elvira. His wife said she would not

have that machine in the house. She said she would buy one of the

other games, to which he replied "Honey its MY birthday and I want

this one" They left and I didn't hear from them for several weeks.

Then today I get a phone call at work and they would like to buy this

game if I could get the modesty patch. They must have found the IPDB

and learned of the patch. I have been trying to sell this game for a

while, but no patch means no sale, so if anyone can help me out or

point me in the right direction I would be very grateful.

I can replace the burned wires on the harness, but an baffled as to

what might cause this. In the harness that goes from the cab.

transformer to the bridge rectifiers some, not all, of the wires are

burned badly. What would cause this? Transformer malfunction?

Need one for a sys. 11A. I have a few but they are not spade type,

they are the wire type. Any difference other than the terminal

style. The number on the new one I have is KBPC 3504W Anyone know

if this will work?

. The strangest, and most disturbing game I

played was an "Atomic Bomber" game (International Mutoscope, 1946),

which has you peering into a small viewer in order to drop, well,

atomic bombs, on the cities scrolling beneath your crosshairs. Yikes.

(who did find time to shower. Alone.)

Getting the machine ready for league night next week and have some issues.

1) The catapult switch and one of the boat entry switches keep failing.

I've re-soldered them, taken off the diodes to make sure those are ok, put

everything back and then they work for a while, then a couple of weeks

later when I play, one or both are not working again. If I wiggle the

diode and other connections, then it usually works again for a while. Bad

switch? Can I clean/fix that or do I need to replace it?

I cannot be alone with my being outta pin room. I am now

looking to fill in the walls and corners with something unique and

fun.
