True :)
I only meant something was likely not
mis-wired.

Thanks for all the help!

Very cool.
If this happened on one pin, it might be elsewhere too. Check all of your solders again. I had one of my 1st builds work fine until about an hour of playing everytime... turns out my soldering skills sucked bigtime and the heat from the filaments would eventually make the bum solder crack loose.
