If you're asking why were the scores so low... it did take a bit of getting used to the HotRod Ultra controller layout. The joysticks are a good distance apart and we all had to adapt. Robotron was also the spotlight for this years TG practical joke. Billy Mitchell played a practical joke on Dwayne Richard, who drove down from Vancouver, BC to win the cabinet. We taped the entire 2 hour ordeal and may publish portions to the TG server in digital format so you too can be in on the joke. Billy has a famous saying when it comes to things like this:
Do unto others and run really fast.
