Again, just a general question because I'm interested and I think it'd be a nice topic to discuss. Tongue

What do you set your dips to, easy, tournament, factory, extremely difficult? I know John likes to set his to the tournament settings from the web usually when he does, I put my machine on super easy yesterday just for the hell of it, I'll probably make it a little more difficult eventually, even more so if I start bringing it to expos like I'd like to, if I don't convert it. What do set your games to? Cheesy

In general, I always consult Twin Galaxies and/or Aurcade to make sure I am using the settings that are used for the leaderboard for the game. Typically,  these settings are usually the default manufacturer dipswitch settings. Some games don't use the default settings on Twin Galaxy. For instance, Frogger is set with five lives. And, Pole Position is set to its fastest, longest, and hardest.

Since I'm not the only one playing at home (usually the kids), I just set everything to easiest settings.
