[QUOTE="EldarOfSuburbia, post: 221879, member: 4106"] That's the way it's designed to work - I think it's okay in that it's far less of a jolt than suddenly completing the final component and having the machine go dead and flash up all that stuff on the DMD at you. That would seriously freak people out the first time it happened. The third lock is a natural break in the action when the player is expecting a quick animation and then back to the action. It's just annoying because lighting the locks after the third or fourth multiball is a real pain. Note that the other logical alternative in WH20 - allowing the Vacation Jackpot to be awarded when the final Whirlpool Award is collected - can have issues if the Bigfoot diverter is stuck in such a way balls are always diverted down the ramp, instead of into the Whirlpool.
