Yeah, my point was more along the lines of "better", not "perfect". Obviously I wasn't clear enough... To be fair the play style was somewhat unique in IN (compared to other areas) which may explain our lack of panel breakage.

We did break a couple batter dividers though (1 in Indiana, 1 on Carson) and had various light string short-outs (which I'm not going to comment on further), so it wasn't field repair utopia. You can't win them all...
