[FSPA] XMen @ Joel, Dialed In Bluetooth @ all?

[John Mucciardi]

League newbie here – I was @ VuK last Sunday and John Locke was messing around with the Bluetooth on Dialed In. I had installed the app on my Pixel a while back and asked John if he wanted me to try connecting. He said sure and I opened the app and it connected to the machine. John was in front of the machine so I am not sure if he was holding in the left flipper button at the same time that I opened the app or not. When my phone connected to Dialed In at the top left of the display it showed my name (as grabbed from my Pixel) and, if memory serves, displayed my last high score which was zero (this was the first and only time I have connected to the machine).

I didn’t play a game with John and, when I connected, it wouldn’t let me control the flippers but again, we weren’t playing at the time.

I think I'm going to swing by VUK for lunch and see if I can get it working. The app boots up fine on my Pixel.

So what's the official rule on using this feature as far as league games are concerned? Seems like it should be a big NO. I don't know if it gives an advantage, but maybe?

I'm 95% sure that you need to hold the game's left flipper & app's left flipper at the same time. When it's successfully connected, your info appears in the top-left corner of the game's screen... Repeat for each player of each game.
