Destroy the...GOD @#$%! IT!

Started The Fellowship, The Two Towers, and Return of the King multiballs? Check.
Activated Destroy the Ring? Check.
Made required side shots? Check.
Locked the first ball in the Ring? Check.
Made final shot through the Ring for the win?

Well, I might have had not the ball gone airborne off the Palantir target and jumped over the flippers to end the ball and my game.

Let the record reflect that TPA is not the only pinball experience to feature game-ending bugs...

Ah frig. It happens these days

I had a similar experience, except I actually hit the locked ball, and knocked it loose, but it didn't register a hit, and the mode kept playing with two balls on the field. I managed to make the shot one more time, and still nothing. I eventually drained one of the balls and the mode ended. Either there was something broken, or the difficulty setting was set way up (a strong possibility, since the difficulty setting was set to normal on all features, meaning you had to collect each Fellowship member in order from the beginning).
