Issues during league meeting
Posted: Tue Jan 04, 2011 2:38 pm
I hosted the Orange County Pinball League on Sunday, and had two issues reported to me. I had Star Wars in my machine for the meeting, running version 2.0.
1) The game completely locked up. I witnessed the lockup and had to turn on/off the machine to get it running again. None of the buttons would respond, including the coin door buttons. This was during the first hour of warm-up, and it did not happen for the remainder of the night (7+ hours).
2) I did not witness this, but was told that during the second game of the night on Star Wars, the jukebox came up immediately upon player 1's first ball draining on a 4-player game. The players eventually had the courage to press the start button (I was on another game at the time), which exited the jukebox, and play resumed with player 2. I've never had this happen to me personally.
Thoughts?
