Rules Question: Trapping up for a tech while your flippers are being attacked in Dialed In

It’s definitely been that way since before IFPA12 in 2015, because I made an incorrect ruling letting Jorian shoot a stuck ball free when I shouldn’t have (so far greater than 6 months).

I will drop this here, not because Josh needs proof, but this certainly came up in the past.

The unstuck - Stuck ball in Multiball conundrum.

That Family Guy ruling was just handled incorrectly. I can get with MHS on clarifying some verbiage that a stuck ball is a stuck ball whether in single ball play or multiball play, and that stuck needs to be dealt with IMMEDIATELY (using the same rules). Allowing a player to shoot another ball is not acceptable if you can safely trap up and go in and get the ball. This actually came up at IFPA12 with Jorian on Star Trek. He had 3 balls trapped on the left flipper with a ball stuck in the jets.…
