[QUOTE="pezpunk, post: 51798, member: 951"] well, i can understand with all the various quirks of the myriad ROMs and how delicate their sanity can be, you don't want to go teleporting balls from place to place. i can buy that. every table would require its own code for dealing with the situation, and who knows how reliable it'd be. but i do think it should be feasible to have an "end game now" button that automatically quits the game, records the score, submits it to the leaderboards, and resets the ROM. this is especially needed since the very best and longest games are the ones statistically most likely to encounter these game-destroying bugs. obviously, it'd be better if the problem never occured, but it's been a perniscious thing that rears its head across multiple tables and has done so since launch. it might be time to admit that it's not going to stop completely.
