I emailed Borgy about my idea for a menu setting idea where you can adjust the flipper hold to reduce the ball trapping, here was his response - never know it may find it into Stern's future machines as an adjustable setting
"Hi Jady
I catch the ball but rarely trap during multiball rounds. I like to play pinball and not just hold the balls like many very advanced players do. I like your idea and it’s a good idea for tournament play. Tourneys usually last a long time and it would certainly shorten the length of play. I’ll bring it up at my next meeting.
Regards,
John"
