John Borg always builds his own whitewoods from start to stop, hence i thought Gomez would be building his own as well......maybe thats where the stuff up occurred....and why X Men Pro for example is just such a great playfield which is really thought out well with lots of great shots plus a well placed 3rd flipper....Steve Ritchie built his own AC/DC whitewoods as well, u can see that in one of his videos and he talks about it etc....

maybe George Gomez didnt build his own whitewood this time, and the insert placement stuff up occured, next time he definately should build his own whitewood...but even so, how could u miss that on your own CAD drawings ??......it doesnt make sense..... !@#

Gomez may well have put the whitewood together.. but it would have been made from his own vector files for CNC routing etc. Its not really a question of WHO put the whitewood together at all.
The point is that the whitewood is there to eliminate mistakes like this... to admit that it was noticed at whitewood stage but it was too late to do anything is astounding... whats the F is the whitewood for then?

Now bear with me here.. but repeatedly you have stated that Stern will put out X many more titles than JJP per year and thats why they will succeed, but this is a prime example of not having enough time to make a game RIGHT... the whole whitewood stage was a mockery and may as well have been eliminated if the outcome is to notice a major flaw but not act upon it.

In all honesty, im amazed Swinks got the reply he did... rule #1 of any business.. talk it up, not down
