[QUOTE="theevilisback, post: 233185, member: 5965"] YAY I CAN POST! Also most people start timers from first interaction with a game. With this being a multi-game... game, the ideal solution would be to start timers from the moment you hit start. Having it be at plunge could be huge for a score goal run since I can knock out a couple seconds by lining up the perfect shot right at the beginning. The difference between start and ability to interact with the table on any system in minimal (sub 2 seconds for most) I also feel that there should be some clarification in the rules for Season runs. Do you need to have proof that I hit the score goal by having it show on the screen? Do I need to drain the ball for that proof? Can we just assume that the instant I hit a jackpot for X points to put me over the score I can just exit and back out? Some tables have extremely long periods where the score flat out does not show on the display and therefore there would be no proof unless you watch a video that a score was hit. Something like Addams Family - Someone could theoretically back out if they did Cousin It and Mamushka, got say 10 mill each on those, and a few million plus + swamp bonuses. In 30 seconds they could easily hit that score theoretically but would need to drain the ball for the two modes points to actually go into the score. Xenon - Exit thing on the left that I don't know what it's called. I can see I'm at 220k, hit it for 50k, immediately exit since I know I hit the goal or do I have to wait for ball to fully exit? Any table getting a jackpot - If I know jackpot puts me over, do I need to wait for it to finish going through animation for awarding or is it safe to exit? I ask this because as an SRL admin I ran into things I thought were trivial in 3 other games but found out it makes a huge difference :) PS: HI VOOF [/QUOTE]
