Ditto...

Just above the banner ad on druin's website it says "Our Rotary Interface is offered as an upgrade option in the SlikStik line of professional arcade control panel products"

It might be worth your time to check with them and see if they have any extra Druin Encoders laying around that they're willing to part with.    ;)

does anyone know why this happens? the rotary switch appears to have 12 physical contacts, so it would seem straightforward to get perfect information to mame. could this just be a design defect in druin's board?

It's a MAME issue.  The devs wrote it to expect a mouse (or other analog device) instead of direct digital input.  I agree with you that it should be an incredibly easy thing to change in MAME if the devs would do it.

It's definitely not the interface because Ikari doesn't play right with the keyboard either.
