I wish I was closer, I would take a vacation day and go get it running for him....

At the very least, someone should make sure that this guy doesn't get his game snaked from him with a "game that is way to expensive to fix, so you might as well sell it"....

I sent Loyld an email saying I could help and haven't heard anything back. I don't see a way to post on loylds thread and their is no contact info for the person who needs help.

Here's what I don't get. Why didn't the person just ask here if they were on this website instead of sending Lloyd a message on pinside. It seems odd to me.

not sure? Maybe he found your facebook page and did not want to offend by asking there?

If anyone is actually intetested I have this guy's number. Real nice guy. I do not have time, but have seen the machine. I asked around a few times before joining this forum, but nobody seems to fix pins in GB. Guess I should have added the background story. Some dork chopped the diodes off all the coils, game could use a clean and wax and eos switches on the flippers. Probably a battery holder. No leaks but bad contact.

Didn't sound like they were on this site. Sounded more like they found your fox valley tourney info site???

I replied to loylds thread saying I could help with contact info. I posted in this thread saying I could help with contact info. I sent a PM to "compute" with my contact info when he offered to give the guys phone number who needed help. Don't know what else I could possibly do to find out how to get in touch with the person who actually needs help. After tomorrow I probably won't have time to help for a month or two.

loyld got back to me. I made contact. It sounds like a straight forward fix that she wants done after the holidays.
