Re: new balls vs. old used up balls

We saved the majority of our poof balls until we had the shooter pretty much complete - we'll use the brand-new balls to calibrate the machine, and if we get an old one in gameplay we'll adjust accordingly (or just miss). We found similar results - the one ball we beat the snot out of travels about 2/3 the distance of one fresh out of the wrapper. Fortunately, the accuracy remains pretty consistent - the difference is in range.
