[QUOTE="Jeff Strong, post: 263084, member: 3"] Well, my folks and brother were visiting cali for a couple weeks so of course I had to get things in order for some high score battles. My brother helped me finally get that new board in place. Also noticed some solenoids had leaked on the driver board (which is probably what initially fried the sound board since the leaks are right next to where it connects...not sure how the repair guy missed this before) so I ordered a new driver board (rottendogg as well) and slapped that in too. Gave her a bit of a tune up all around as well and also swapped in a new ball which made a huge difference in terms of speed. Now she really flies around and really livened the ol lady up...just in time for my mother to give me a run for my money and teach me a trick or two! Gotta give credit where it's due; she's a pinball vet and raised me well lol. I still hold the crown for overall high score, but she did whoop my ass a time or two in 2 player battles! Meanwhile my brother did pass me in overall high for a bit, but I ended up reclaiming it the day before he left, which I gotta be honest, felt great heh...but as a PC geek, he really loved tinkering around with the boards and what not and now he's talking about picking up a Black Hole he found in his neighborhood (however, it'a still uncertain if he'll be as lucky as me in terms of getting the wifey green light lol). It's cool seeing him take interest in pins though since he was never into it much before beyond some casual playing here and there. Anyways we had a great time and it was a thrill to see everyone loving on the ol Gottlieb. [/QUOTE]
