Is there no Fossil Champ for most fossils in a game? I finally had a really good fossil game where I got all but one, and alas no initials 
Nope donāt believe their is a fossil champ. I have gotten all 11 fossils and no fossil champ.
Whoās listed as default Fossil Champ? It should be āNEDRYā
And with no way to ever get 12 fossils, NEDRY is hard-coded in as the Fossil Champ for all-time. 
Someone asked this on Pinside and didnāt get a response so I thought Iād try here.
āWatched online streams last night of Iron Maiden and I learned that machine has a light that flashes by the upper right flipper to indicate that combos are active. Anyone know if Keith put something like that on JPā
Funny, I was just thinking this same thing so I played a game looking for an indicator. Didnāt see one. Possible Iām missing it, but Iām fairly certain, no, no active combo light.
and I donāt see one here: https://www.twitch.tv/steveopub/clip/ScrumptiousNiceDiscNerfRedBlaster
Anyone else get like no pop action? Mineās brand new, so wondering if needs a bit of break-in, but Iāve also attempted to make them more sensitive and itās still pretty tough toā¦say, get an addaball in Chaos.
My main issue appears to be any dribbler from the spinner shot just floats on by all the pops. And even a straight shot through the gate sometimes comes out with no pops either.
I got and have a lot of pop action out of the box. Delivered last week.
Thanks - this was the push I needed to give it another round of sensitivity adjusting. Really, just increasing the sensitivity of the bottom left pop changes the whole nest. Much better.
Yea Iāve been having intermittent issues with that first bumper not activating on balls rolling in from the top arch. Got it working well a few weeks ago but itās drifting back to not being triggered on some entries. Might have to bend the feeder wall slightly so the ball catches more skirt as it enters the nestā¦
Mine has the worst pop action of any JP Iāve played. Rarely get a Chaos add-a-ball, which means Chaos always sucks. Tried adjusting switch gaps, didnāt help much. I need to try the thing where you shine a bright light to center the nipple (?) in the spoon.
What does that trick do? Iād make them crazy sensitive with an extra close switch adjustment, then take white lithium grease and put a TINY bit on a qtip and wipe it in the spoon.
Basically you shine a light up through the spoon to make sure the nipple is perfectly centered. If not, adjust the spoon. Its mounting holes have enough play to slide it around a bit.

If you drain out the left outlane after collecting multiple skill shots its possible to get another skill shot if skill shots are still lit and the saved ball exits from the right u-turn ramp entrance rather than the inlane on the plunge (inlane switch will turn off skill shots).
Not sure if its a bug, but the left ramp skill shot turns back on when you drain (I think the right ramp also turns on). I do not believe there is enough time to score two skill shots and I donāt think you can get another ball save from this.

Cleaned up DNA combos and fossil wildcards in the wiki rules to match the status screens in-game.
That said, Thereās reference somewhere in the middle of this thread that lighting all 8 shots in KOTI also awards a fossil? Since I canāt confirm, and itās not listed on the status screens, I didnāt add.
A few random questions Iāll throw into the air, since Iāve been playing my JP.
I got a Spinosaurus Fossil during Chaos during the C-H-A-O-S collect phase, which seems to contradict whatās written in the wiki " Spinosaurus - Collect a Chaos Hurry-Up Super Jackpot". Is that fossil actually collect a letter super jackpot (i.e. from Phase 2, rather than Phase 3)?
Is there really no fossil to collect during T-Rex MB? Or is it like 2 SJPs? I guess Iāve never done that.
Whatāre you all setting your pitch at? Iāve got my bubble nearing the very top and I like the speed/shots, but miss out on the upper loop shot rolling back up the O lane with the flipper held up (worked fine at flatter pitch).
Anyone have any advice on getting the center spinner to travel fully around more often? Mine rattles a ton on seemingly clean shots no matter the playfield pitch.
Itās more likely that you got one of the other thresholds that fills in a fossil - rescues, loops or tower shots, maybe even a 6-way combo. Just getting a letter sjp isnāt a fossil.
Iāve hit 2 Sjps in TRex and not got a fossil

Yup, no fossil in T-Rex Multiball. Youāre already getting enough points as is, and itās generally less difficult than any of the other modes too.
I was the one who posted about the fossil from collecting all 8 shots in KOTL, but I was mistaken. I think I must have inadvertently triggered some other wildcard condition when I was testing with the glass off.
Has anyone here hit all the jackpots on KOTI? The most I have been able to get is 5.
I havenāt figured out the exact circumstances, but more than once the post comes up for the smart missile, but quickly drops and the ball drains (if Iām not paying attention).
Iām hesitant to submit an official bug with a wishy washy cause, but I believe in both cases I was starting a T-Rex mode at the same time. Perhaps in cases where the T-Rex grabs the ball (Premium) and drops it on the ramp?
