Submission Message	Here is my first attempt at the 1942 Bootleg PCB track. I have a Korean made 1942 running in an old scramble cabinet. I have attached two videos. One video is a walkthrough of the PCB, showing the dip switches and the game running live. The second video is my scoring attempt: 204,010 I am including a couple of high res photos to help with the adjudication and for historical / documentation purposes. Dip Switches:

Here is a closeup of the dip switches:

I really hope to get some traction with this track. I was pleased that my bootleg had the same dip switch settings as the original. Not so sure about the 60-in-1 boards. I think they are buggy, but I welcome the competition and discussion.

I'm not even close to an expert, only played 1942 3x in my life at a pizza parlor. I did hear the sound indicating new lives at the right scores. I also counted deaths, and you died 6x which is correct for 3 starting lives +3 bonus lives. Everything seems to check out. I have to ask though, was there some way to say total lives on screen? I also noticed the lower right corner was cut off by the camera, was there any useful data there?

All questions aside, accepted.
