So, that's nice. Uh, and we're probably going to be here for another 3 to four. No. How long you think? Three rounds. So hungry. I'm starving, dude. Three rounds, right? No big deal. Monster rig behind us. I think we're mega rig. What do we got on the radio? I know this band. Cake. This is cake. Yeah, right. Uh oh. She's making announcements. Oh, shoot. I think you're up. I think she said Travis. Okay, get on over there. All right, we're going to we're going to kick some butt. All right. All right, we're trying to figure out our uh I will just put the be right back on. I'll put the be right back. [Music] Oh, Jesus Christ. I can't stream and play. I can't do it. It's causing me all kinds of issues because there's no one here. I can't do it, guys. It's I'm in my head. I can't stream and play at the same time. It's really irritating me. I don't have anybody here to help me. I don't have anybody here to show me. This is very frustrating for me. I'm literally irritated at uh what's happening. But we're going to keep going. We're playing a little Ultra Bridge in the background. I love Alterbridge. Yeah, Baba. I It It's [] me up, man. I can't stream. I'm running the stream. I made the finals and now I'm like I can't I can't multitask. It's just too much for me to be honest. I'm I'm overwhelmed. And then I got to move this monster rig to three different games. This is just not a It's not a streaming. Here's the problem. The rig is so big that I I need two people to help me and no one's helping me and I'm not asking for help. But uh and then there's six nine games now. It's just too much. I This is the last stream of of this tournament here because it's just it I can't do it, you know, to be truthful. But yeah, Bob, I sucked. That's, you know, but I can't I I I literally can't do it. It I have no help here. I need my boy John Spades. And uh it's all crooked. It doesn't look good. It looks like [] I'm really struggling. I'm struggling. I'm I'm happy that I made the finals. I know, Michael. I need to, right? I just need to say, look, I need help moving this rig. This guy's going to kick my ass, too. He's such a good player. Michael says, "Have you thought about considered asking for help?" Yeah, I need to. But I put so much pressure on myself to try to do all this that it's it's it's getting to the point where it's too much for me. Does that make sense? I don't know. I'm being a whiner. All right, let's shake that off. There's a bad ball one. F it. This guy can play this game, though. He's just such a good player. He's so patient. And that looks like [] God, that looks terrible. I'm sorry, chat. I'm better than this. Oh, boy. I'll be back. We need you to focus on your craft right now. Okay. I know. Attention inhabitants of the home. experience. I'm in my head, boys and girls. I'm in my head. I am totally in my noggin. What you're witnessing is a panic attack. How am I going to stream and do all this [] and still make it look good? And Godzilla doesn't look good. It's tilted. And uh like I just can't get out of my head. Has that ever happened to you? I know fat. I'm just I'm I shouldn't call you fat, JC, but I'm just insane. I'm a crazy person. Just disgusted at myself. [Music] I got people texting me, you can beat him. You could do this. And what they don't realize is I'm mid panic attack. [] All right. 6.25 for the destruction jackpot. Now, this is dangerous, right? Is it worth 6.25? Let's see what he does here, cuz I don't think it's worth it. And he got it. But see it just gets so crazy coming down there. Oh, fat. Thank you, dude. Wow. Tom Tom from Fox Cities has something to say about that. He's unbelievable. I pinball. Unbelievable. Uh JBL down in uh in Europe. Those are some damn good players. Uh this guy who's coming up right now, he's probably going to win it all. He could win it all, but I need to go and have a good ball three, start Ebra, and then lock balls, and I'm going to Eber the [] out of it. Or should I titanosaurus? What do you guys think? Yeah, Michael, I totally whiff that all the time. [Music] And I'm trying to prime my uh multiball, you know. All right, let's see. He's going to prime his house. [Music] How's the sound? I tried to turn the sound up over there, but there's We have a DJ. We We're rocking here at Eureka today, so it's it's quite difficult. But this is it. It it it's just this is my last tournament playing and trying to stream at the same time because I can't [] do it. But we're rocking here. Eureka. If you guys ever come to Houston, Eureka is a really fun spot because uh the games play so brilliantly and we had a lot of barrels of fun people here today. Dave Vaness was here, Travis Moseman, designer of Dune, uh guys on the line. So, a lot of pressure here. These lightning flippers. Does anyone like them? Anyone, Michael? It's too much. And I'm in my noggin, right? I'm in my head about it. And I It's like a [] ping-pong ball trying to bounce around. I got to get out of it. But you know what it Hey Enzo, how are you brother? I'm playing like [] I made it to the finals and I got a lot of excuses I'm trying to make here, Enzo. Uh, but we're at Eureka Heights and we're having fun. I've only been here since 11:30. That's not too long. But what we're playing here in this group, this is Jim Mueller. I've got the uh standings up here, which I can give you cuz this is a new yolo box, so it's a little confusing, but Jim Mueller is the number one seed in this group. We're going to play three games. We're going to also play Jaws and Star Wars. I'm totally screwed on Star Wars anyway, so I need a really good I had a great Jaws earlier. I I just went well I can't go for a walk because in between balls I got to commentate like a jackass. So I'm I'm I'm not having a lot of fun. I'm I'm You know what? You're totally right. Fat GC. I need a Zen. Oh, you're crazy. Pop a Zen and let's just go. Let's just go. But really, I can't stream and play at the same time. And it's just I don't know how people do it. Super jackpot right there. But how can you not like Godzilla? It's a great game. I'm just not playing very well today. Yeah. Listen, if all you do is watch pinball and you think Carl is everyone you're going to go into, you're not. He's the one in He's one in a million. But streaming and playing is it's the last time I'm going to do it. Uh, I just have to decide if I'm going to stream or I'm going to play. Uh, is is the answer there. Is Godzilla the greatest? It's pretty. I mean, it's pretty good, Enzo. But this guy's going to kick my ass. And my hope is the second place here and then go on to Jaws and see what we can do. But like And he's doing the things on Godzilla, right? He knows how to play it. And this copy plays really hard. Like it's b it's bouncy. It's nice drop catch. I can't hit that shot period. So I'm not even going to try. But I like streaming. So that's the rub. Like I almost like streaming more than playing. And then I get to this point where I'm like doing both and I can't do it. And then the pressure mounts on me and I can [Music] It's such a deep game, Pennies, that you know, people that know how to use the heat ray and all that [] They're really an impressive. It's it's it's very impressive. But let's see what I can do. Let's see what I can do. There's his saucer attack. He's feeling good. He's destroying saucers. But sometimes I think I should just sell all this equipment and just stick to podcasting. Do you ever feel Do you ever think that? Well, you guys He's ging it up. Look at him. He's turning [] He's just gigging in it. And he's just doing it. He's just gaging. It's impressive. I can't do this. Like, this isn't in my arsenal. Just all day. Gaging it. Just gagging it. Oh, he missed. That's a miracle. And then I get salty, right? So now I'm on the stream and I'm salty. Oh, Pinsy is just so pretty with the red accents, isn't it? I I well, you know, Enzo, I like Gigen, but if I'm close to multiball, I tend to choose Ebra, but I'm not close to anything. So, this is just going to be a miracle for Jamie. And really, I just got to get out of my head and see what I can do. [Music] Got his battle lit. Let's see if he goes another battle. Got that three time spinner. He's just nice. [Music] Nice. Mga Godzilla. I don't understand why we're playing three rounds, three games in each round. That seems excessive for me. but his control here is very pretty. Get up in the middle there, buddy. Come on. There you go. Get a mega Godzilla pot. Oh, got an adder ball. He added a ball and Gurus. So then when I'm when he's done, I like run over there. Good. Not a great mecha Godzilla, but it's not going to kill him. The light show on this game is is amazing, though. What do you guys think about lights? People that bring their own lights. I was talking about that in the round table recently, and I'm going to make it my absolute mission to ban lights. I'm going to ban lights. I'm going to do it. Yeah, he can flip, right? I mean, I'm in the happy to be here stage. This is a really good player. This is one of our best in Houston. And uh now he's got the uh kicking some ass and taking names and but it's also these guys know the code. I mean, they know everything about it. You know, he's got his heat ray ready and I don't even know what I'm doing with a heat ray. I've got like 50 games on Godzilla. He got a ball save. Yeah, lights should not be allowed. We're going to ban him. I'm going to bring it up to Josh when I see him at uh expo. I'm going to be like, what do why somebody spent $10 on Amazon and they get to have better lights than us? It's baloney and cheese is what it is. So, we should ban lights together. We can do this. We can make a change, people. This guy can play. Together, we can make a change. We can make change and get rid of light people. lighters. He uh because he was the highest seed got to pick what position he played. Uh because I was the uh worst seed, I'm first. So that's why [Music] another saucer attack time. There's 8 mil. Take it. Take that, Jamie. Let's go to Paris. And he's just gonna take his big bonus. And then I'll get knocked out, right? Fat JC. And then I got to stay another two [] hours so I keep streaming. That's the saddest. That's what drives me crazy. But my wife's coming home tomorrow. She's been gone for five weeks. Oh, okay. Take a deep breath. If you work out a play sequence, all right, I'll see you. Wish me luck. Manifest some good thoughts for me, will you? That's pretty good. [Music] We can't tell you what's going to be. We'll send a report as soon as we know. [] last. All right, I'm going for a walk. [Music] Nice shot. [Music] It's disgusting. [Music] It's like I get here at 11:30 to set all this [] up. I actually play pretty [] good today. I'm having an orbital Albert meltdown, ladies and gentlemen. Now I have to move the [] rig, come back here, do all this. I'm having a meltdown. I'm I'm literally having an Oral Albert meltdown, which you guys should check out his Patreon, by the way. It's really good. Then I got to move the [] rig, go play Jaws when I'm ass chapped. What do you guys think? This is a good stream. And that this is fantastic. I know it's just pinball, but it's just an ass chap, dude. Like, I played good all day and then I come here. All right. So, Jim's going to get a W, followed by, I believe, Tom O'Neal, and then So, we're going to walk this one off. I'm going to move it on Jaws and then I'm going to play. I know. Chill pill, dude. I'm trying. I'm so [] irritated. [Music] All right, I'm going in Jaws. Wish me luck. I'm just going to You know what I'm going to do? I'm going to do Shark Encounters. Damn it. But yeah, my ass is chapped. Now go. No, I I don't care. I I didn't want I didn't know if it if it just you just started or I didn't I All right, got it. I was really going feeding frenzy. I really wanted my feeding frenzy to be good and uh that last feeding frenzy kind of screwed me. It's funny. I played this today and I put up 280 million on it. Oh no, 580 million on it and I was just doing feeding frenzies and I'm I might do that again just for shits and giggles. But no pastinata, Michael, you're right. I I'm just upset. Like it's it's it's just a lot. And sometimes I I get p I have anxiety. Oh, he's And it just gets me. It gets me. You know, I think what you're witnessing here is someone that had a little bit of an anxiety issues. So, you get to watch that. But it's just not a uh event that you can stream and play. In fact, JC, I think this is a great game. I think this is a great game. I'm a big fan. Um I'm playing it a little differently lately. Um because, you know, the first multiball is kind of useless. It's just not worth enough points. But if you can really get that shark and counter lit, there's there's a lot of points in it. So, we'll see what I could do. I'm coming off a last on [] Godzilla, so I'm probably out, but let's get it. You know, you never know. Fat JC, I am I've had a lot of diet cokes today and a lot of Zins. Like, I'm at a pack of Zins today. a pack of sins. I'll I'll definitely use a pack today, but [Music] Yeah, Michael, those tech support the texts have the the hardest kick because you're sitting there, you're playing, and you could feel someone waiting on your shoulder like, hey, there's a stuck ball on Stranger Things and you're just like, I just want to play Stranger Things, right? But let's see what he does. He's He's getting his uh He can play this game. Oh boy, I just jinxed his ass. Maybe I should do more of that. Trash can ninja. I'll tell you how everything is. I'm sucking. I'm sucking and it's in my noggin, man. And it's just like a pingpong ball bouncing around in my head. Can't get out of it. I'm trying to get out of it. He's got feeding [] frenzy and I couldn't get it. Oh, trash can. I love you. Thank you so much for coming. This is Eureka Heights final 16 of our Super Saturday series. Uh streaming and playing not working for Jamie. So, uh but I'll be eliminated soon enough. So, don't worry about it. And am I being negative? You're damn right I am. And see, I couldn't get the feeding frenzy going. I couldn't get anything going. [Music] But that's fine. That's fine. it's just nice night swim. Not a bad night swim, but that feeding frenzy, that's why I've been working on it and I haven't gotten it. You know, [Music] I'm sorry you're watching bad pinball here. I'm trying, ladies and gentlemen. Jamie's trying. Thanks, Trash Cam. I I have serious pinball fatigue. I'm also ash chapped and uh it just I'm not in a good headsp space. You got to be in a good headsp space to play pinball. You really do. And I think it's it is such a mental game. It's such a unbelievable mental game that uh it's un, you know, it's just it's really unbelievable. I don't even know what I'm supposed to be doing anymore. But it's just it's too hard for me to play and stream. So, I'm not going to do it anymore. I'd rather just stream, but I can't do both. Oh, nice. That's the tilt. Come on, Ted. He's a good dude, by the way. Ted Rubenstein's one of the nicest people on the planet. And then I'll show you the scores in a minute. Uh they're supposed to be here. Watch this. This little overlay is going to come on the bottom. And it's all [] up. [Music] It didn't work today. I don't know what happened. But uh and we'll go to Star Wars after this. I hate Star Wars. It It's one of Oh, he tilted. It's just not a game that I that fits my eye Star Wars where Jaws does. I just, you know, I'm Ash Chap and I'm in my head. So, uh, I would love to live in near the bat. Honestly, I would trash can. Uh, I would love to live near the bat, but I got a grandson and a beautiful wife here in Houston, and I got a Houston Enzo, it's hard, right? Like, I'm in my head so badly right now that I don't want to be streaming and playing that I can't, you know? Does that make any sense to anybody? Like I'm so having this anxiety about playing and you know and I I'd really just want to watch Oklahoma and Michigan, see what the hell's going on with the Sooners, which I got up there. So that's kind of cool. But, you know, then I get knocked out and then I got to sit here and and stream all this [] It's just it's just too much. It's it's too much for me to be honest. So, Fat JC Stern Star Wars gameplay is vague and disconnected. Has anybody played it? Has anybody seen it? When is that trailer supposed to come out? But I'm I'm I'm hearing good things, but I don't know who you know, dude. Kale, I'm in my head, dude. I need my sensei. I need uh I I just didn't have any help today. Normally I have John, but John's on vacation. So uh no, you know, it's like I'm moving the [] rig. I'm trying to play. I'm trying to win it. It just became overwhelming for me But here comes Jim Mueller, one of our best players in Houston. So, I expect good things out of this ball from Jim. I don't know why he's waiting. Got pond attack. Let's go. Let's attack some ponds, Jim. Any day now. Got his harpoon ready. Let's get this guy. No, I just missed it. Sometimes that pop bumper will help you, Oh, I know, dude. Fat JC, you're totally right. The I I hate that Star Wars. You'll see in a few minutes. I got [Music] you. [Music] Hey, boys. [Music] Okay, this is fun. Are we having fun? Now I got to go to [] Star War. The good news is it's over in 15 to 20 minutes for me. Hey Pin Ladian. Good pin paladin got your nice. I need Ralph here because like this is where Ralph would like I'm thinking right now. I'm so negative right now in my head that I'm thinking about selling all this [] I'm like, I want I got a giant rig. It's got to be worth a couple of grand. And then I'll get rid of the yolo box and I'll just, you know, but I'm so in my head that I I really can't get out of it. I'm sad. Yeah, Jack Shipper's right behind me. Monica fat sometimes sell it all moved to Arizona. Oh, dude, I'm just so irritated at myself. Get that. There it is. Come on. Oh, no. I love Ted, though. Ted's a good dude.

But, uh, it was a mass of Long Island, but that helps. It's Ralph. I'm like a uh you see it's the balls. See if it's a little floaty on the stream. It shouldn't be. There's not a lot of people in here. We shouldn't have too much interference. He's Oh, he's out. And so he's going to get a second place with Ted getting a Nobody did anything there. All right, let me move this rig. You go here. Talk to the people and I'll be back. All right, sounds good. Hey. How's it going everyone? Hope you're having a good Saturday. It's a lot hot here, but we're staying cool, drinking beer, and playing pinball. [Music] Just good vibes all around. I hope everyone's doing all right. Dropping some frames. All right, I'll tell Jamie when he comes back. All right, leave that. Oh, looks like we're going to be on Star Wars. All right. Uh, all right. Bad JC wants to know, "What's my top three pinball machines?" I'm a big fan of Twilight Zone. I know people love Adam's Family more, but I personally love Twilight Zone. Probably Twilight Zone, Black Knight, Sword of Rage, and I'll have to get back to you on the third one, but all right. You ready? Yeah. Evil Dead. I think Evil Dead's fantastic. I'm really liking this trend of how uh smaller companies are going with wide bodies. Yep, that is true. Jeremy's got he's right there. All right, come on, Jamie. Let's see what you got. Come on. I believe I believe in the Han Solo. I believe in the Han Solo strategy. All right. Jamie's got the ball saved. He's Come on, Jamie. Just hit hit the TIE fighter. Oo, that's rough. I always miss the TIE fighter like that. Yeah, it's it's like Twilight Zone. I I think I like it more because it just has so much to do and there's so many little Easter eggs on the uh on the uh playfield itself. And couple that with like the Powerball uh gimmick. I I think it's fantastic. I I I know I know you know controversial opinion Adams family everyone loves Adam's family but I love per personally I think Twilight Zone is Lawler's better work. All right, let's see. All right, Jamie's got that Death Star. Let's go. He can hit the hyperspace. Hurry up. He's going. Hit that tie fire, Jamie. All right. Oh, and that's a bad drain. Oh, yeah, for sure. I mean, a Twilight Zone is a good example where you play the game and then all of a sudden you have you have millions of points and then you don't know how. I don't know how to play this game. Well, you had the right idea with the Han Solo strategy. Yeah. So, I'm not a fan of this game cuz I don't know it right. Like when you know the code like I am on Batman. Okay. Or whatever, right? Deadpool, you just know the code, right? You just know what you're supposed to be doing. I don't know what guys to choose. It's just I I'm glad it's almost over. Thank Christ. So, you had the right idea. So, what Travis told me, okay, is you want to pick Han Solo and you want to manipulate the you want to get the plus five TIE fighters and you want to manipulate it so that the light the lit lanes are up there in the middle, okay? and just try to hit that uh that uh TIE fighter hurry up and get that TIE fighter multiball so you can start slamming that action button as as fast as possible. Okay. But beyond that, that's all I really know cuz I know another big thing is you want to get your multipliers up so that when you do the video mode, you get a huge uh point value in video. Uh 987 million. Not his best ball. Here comes Ted. I just want to end with a second, you know. Yeah, to catch you up to speed, people were asking what uh what pinball machines I liked. Oh, cool. Wow, they're done. You know what happened before you joined? I spent about a half an hour pitching and moaning about how bad I'm playing, how hard it is to stream and play. And it's a it's a it's a goddamn pity party, Victor. And uh they had enough of me. So, I'm I'm really glad that you're here sitting next to me. Uh, let me turn the sound on this. Well, you can't hear. They're going to have a tough time hearing with the DJ and all that [] Anyway, so we could probably move the webcam over a little. You want to move the webcam over? You're a little I'm like a little off frame. Look at that, buddy. All right. That's ask and you shall receive. All right. Jim Mueller waiting it out. Um, it's just a game. I don't like Star Wars. I think I can't wait for the new one. I hope. You know, we'll see. No one's really seen it or played it, so no one has a clue. So, so of the two 90s Star Wars games, which one do you like more? The Sega or the Data East? That East, right? All right, smash that button. This button it it's just too much. Mhm. I did a good button job. I was joking with Jack earlier where he was like Jim Miller's doing great at pinball and I was like what a classic Jim Mueller move being good at pinball. Oh, he's good. Guy can play pinball. Uh obviously this is where we need a light. Look at that. It's so dark. It's just the heads that he they're leaning over. What? Got to watch Jim to figure out what to do. Oh, I know. All right. You got You got to get on your tippy toes to peer over him. There he goes. So, you see here, he's got that multiplier up so that when he finishes the video mode, it's he's going to have a big big cash out. So, it's just too confusing, right? It doesn't make sense. You had to trap the ball, press a button, move the [] over. It's not intuitive, right? It doesn't make sense because it's so much unlike any other pinball machine. Whereas, I just think like he's just going to do Hoff again. And and the thing too is in in my opinion uh this game this game is this game wants to kill you every time every time you hit an orbit or anything that ball just wants to whip right down. Yeah. I I don't like it. I have uh great dismay for it. And it it's funny too cuz it's like you could argue it flows very well and you Oh yeah. It's just I think the code is so weird and then all of a sudden you're in New Hope and then you're in an Empire Strikes Back and then you're in this and you're in that and too much not my favorite game. Nice. Uh wish mystery was lit. That would have been pretty cool. Trashian said Trashian Ninja says I hope the new Star Wars give us a new hope. That's a good joke there. We'll put that up there for you. Um ball save. Two more balls left here. Let's see what I can do. Right. Ball three. Magic. Jamie. Ball three. You got Let's see what I could do. [Music] Oh, I just got so chapped earlier. I was in my head. It's all right, man. I'm okay now. I went for walks and I had some zens and No worries, man. I was I was up in Dallas playing fighting games and I had a bad day. Oh, you did? Yeah. Then uh my friends will attest I I as the kids say crashed out. All right. So So Jim Jim's doing the gym moves. He's hitting the 260 2 uh 260. He He's just a very good player. He doesn't panic. He says, "Okay, chop wood." Prediction says fat. I'll bet you five bucks. I think it's going to have movie clips. I hope so cuz like Yeah, you can't do that animated crap. So, I don't even know like where do I move my [] You know what I mean? Like I just don't know. I believe Jim has an extra ball lid as well. Oh, good backhand. Gets the hyperspace. Yeah, this is this is probably one of the slippiest games I've ever played. And I I feel like the flippers, like the precision flippers they have installed on it don't help. It makes it harder. I think the precision flippers that they have here uh make it difficult like on uh well, Pul Fiction makes it too hard. Uh and Jer Park. Enzo thinks it's based on a new story. I disagree with you, Enzo. I'll bet you 10 bucks. All right, man. Jim just going. Yeah, if I if I ever had a game this long, I would get zero points. Oh, on Star Wars. Yeah. I I There he is. I would be hitting every single just dead shot just in between everything I need to hit. A new Star Wars and Raya code would be really good. Dude, Ray's really good. Have you played the new Metallica? Yeah. You like it, right? It's pretty good. The funny thing to me is like it's too new because it's like all the Metallagas I'm used to are 10 years old and they've been beaten. Yeah. You know, and so like they're all worn incredibly and a new one's too new. I'm like, things aren't reacting the way I expect them to. Yeah. All right, here we go. And there goes him. All right, I'm up. Wish me luck, dude. All right, good luck. Good luck. I don't know. We'll see. You know, JC, I think you might be right. I mean, but who knows? I I don't know if Stern has the direct pipeline to Disney like that. Maybe they do, maybe they don't. All right, so Jim Jim punches the extra ball and ends with quite the score, I feel. Would you look at that? 556 million. That's And a 13 million bonus. All right, come on, Jamie. Come on, chin up. Chin up, Jamie. Oh my god. He got two extra balls. All right. Plunge that second extra ball, Jim. Come on. So, for the audience at home, I know very little about this game beyond really doing the Han Solo stuff and doing the video mode. I mean, I complete the g the modes, but that's really about it. All right. In fact, JC says, "Hopefully John Williams music and Spike 3 upgrade sound." We'll see. We'll see. I mean, John, I mean, I don't know the licensing on John Lillian's music how much that would cost. And who knows if Spike Fever will will make a difference. Let's hope it does. All right, Jamie's in video mode. He's got a 5x, so maybe he won't have the biggest cash out for for his score, but it should be it should be decent if he keeps up this streak. 113. Let's see. 37 million. That's not bad. He's still He's still got a climb to go to catch up to the gym cuz he's currently in second place. Oh, and he tilts out. That's rough. That's very rough. All right, next player is up. Let's see what he can do. All right, he's hing the lit shots. Oh, that's what I was talking about. You just just kind of hit the ball and it just dinks into things and then it comes back down. Happens to me a lot. Oh man, he he's struggling here. He Nothing's going Oh, there we go. I spoke too soon. Things are going up ramps now. And up and up we go. All right, he's going to start star mode. Yeah, get that shield generator. Oh, what fighting games do I play? Uh, Fat JCS. A little off topic, but I play uh Blaze Blueue and I play Guilty Gear Exert. So, those are the older uh the older ones. Uh, I think believe they came out almost a decade ago at this point. I play little Tekken, but not not too into it. All right. He's got the TIE fighter. Let's see if he can start that multiball. and get just mash that action button. Come on. Get that. Hurry up. Hey, buddy. I'm on commentary. Commentary. Yes. Oh, JC, are you talking about uh Marvel 3 or Marvel 2? Are you talking about the new uh tokcon Marvel game? All right. Oh. All right. Good. Good hits. He's advanc advanced to young ling. I don't know what that means, but he's got points. It should be good. All right. He's He's He's He's gained those points. And there we go. Oh, just the series in general. Yeah, that makes sense. All right, we got Jamie back. We got Jamie back. Hey guys, how's he doing? He's doing pretty well. He's He's doing better. Yeah. This is where you need a light. God, this is where you need a light. I just don't play. I'm, you know, I'm defeated. Sorry, Jimmy. It's all right. It's okay. It happens to all of us, you know. It happens to all of us. It just doesn't I just don't want it to happen while I'm on goddamn stream, you know? That's the rub. That That's the part you can't control, you know. But DJ Chris Low is rocking today. Oh, for sure. We had 51 or 53 players. I think we had 51 thereabouts. Yeah. And uh really good showing. Way to go, Eureka. Oh, he doesn't know about the uh Yeah, he should be hammering that button, but it's stupid, right? He's at 20x, too. He's killing it if he gets that video mode. Oh, that'd be great. Looks like he's in a he's in a mode right now. So, yeah, that's too bad. He's a 20x, but he turned his power he turned his his 20x off. See what I mean? How do you even do that? You hit press the button and you move it, but it's off. Like, he pressed it by mistake. You see how it's off? And now it's back down to 2x. Mhm. You need a doctorate degree to be able to figure this machine out, don't you think? Probably. I got a bachelor's. That's about it. Good ball. Good bonus. There you go, Tom. Having a light is ridiculous, but sunglass is really bad. Yeah, I was playing at the electric bat and a guy had a uh a magnetic light and I started making fun of him to Ralph, but little did I know that his wife was standing next to Ralph. So then the guy came up to me and was like, "You have a problem with my light." I'm like, "I have no idea what you're talking about." Not knowing that that was his wife. I'm like, "Dude, I'm just a jackass. Don't listen to me." I literally told him I was a jackass. I'm like, "Dude, I'm a jackass. Don't listen to me. I don't know what I'm saying half the time." So, anybody want to buy any streaming stuff? No fat. Uh JC, honestly, I'm talking to Ralph. I'm like, "We should ban lights." And then this woman goes, "Why? Why do you think we should ban lights?" Yeah, Tom would have had a billion if he knew the rule. Nobody knows the rules except this guy. It's just one of those games where I need to force myself. The Costco uh home edition has ridiculously low scoring. Where is this TIE fighter? Yeah, right there. Oh, no. Where's the uh you know, he's got to hit the uh right here. Oh, I see it. Got the uh the And so I use ZB1's for everything. Um but the TIE fighter is right there and it's the target right underneath. And then where is the Death Star when it says shoot the Death Star? I I believe it's that weird uh weird twoprong. Yeah, this game. Yeah. If someone needs an accommodation, we're letting accommodations now happen. We should uh every game should be like Jersey Jack and just blind you. Yeah, I know. That's ridiculous. So, Dune coming to uh Einstein and Arcad is that and Katie, right? Okay. So, the Katie location it's been it's been on box. It's there. Uh yes, Enzo ZV1 at 1080p. Yeah. Why are you [] on me? You don't think it looks good enough? Do I need that now? They uh apparently they had they unboxed it and everything yesterday. Oh, he's putting up a bill, huh? He's going to get a bill. But there's there if there anyone can do it, Jim Mueller. He's our man. Yeah, he's a good player. The sad part is it's 8:00, right? I haven't eaten since 11:30. Jamie. So that could be what my issue is, too. Like, no, it's it's always the hunger. You're going to feel better when you eat. Yeah, but that truck outside looks like [] I might have to run and get some food. Um, Jim Mueller doing Jim Mueller things. Hyperspace shots too damn tight. Hate that part. So, I I have it at 4K. Um, but the internet here is not quite fast enough. I am hangry, Enzo. It might be that might be my problem. No Vader sounds in Star Wars. Yep. Are there really We don't hear him breathing. We don't hear We don't get that. That's what Electric Bat is saying right now. Matt, I would say listen, it's going to be scary at first, but you shouldn't worry about what other people think about you or how you think should, you know, you shouldn't feel like the new guy. If you ask the question and someone Oh my god. If you ask a question, someone's going to help you. Okay. And if they're not, they're [] and call them out. Exact. Exactly. Don't Don't give them the time of day. If you want to go tournaments and have fun, you go to tournaments and have fun. Absolutely. Uh, they're supposed to be fun on un unlike what I've done today. I was having fun until the finals. It's all right. You know, to be honest, I kind of didn't want to make it. I was right on the cusp and I was like, "All right, cool. I'm not going to make it. I'll just stream." You know, if if I if I if Jurassic Park if I had done well in Jurassic Park in the next game, I might have been in it. But Jurassic Park, a bad game on Jurassic Park. So, he's just timing that lightsaber duel out. Okay. because it's really a you're just kind It's a dud. It's like a dud, right? Yeah. The home edition has made her like I Well, I suppose that makes sense because I imagine the home edition was made after uh James Earl Jones gave away all of his uh uh his rights for for his voice and stuff. Oh, okay. Matt, I totally get you there. But if you're listen I I tell you what I don't know what part of uh the the country or world you're in but most places are so unbelievable if you were at the bat and you're new and you go I'm new here. Oh, he's he's just toying with us now. He's just letting us But but Matt, a good piece of advice, hit the flashing light. If you're confused, just hit that flashing light. Send that ball right up there. Oh, Chicago. Chicago, dude. I I had uh summertime stuck in my house the other day. What? Chicago summer. Uh summertime in the park. Yeah, that's maybe was Saturday. Yes. Oh, it's Saturday in the park. All right. Nobody's here for that. But boy, you're you know, you got to see me play like [] but you're seeing a really good player here that could win this whole thing. All right, Jamie, good luck. Come on, bring home. All right, I watched some new Predator gameplay. Kind of looks like Sergeant Jackson part looks good to me. I I mean, like I said, I'm very happy with what the newer companies are doing where they're making wide bodies and I'll have to play at some point cuz I'm very interesting to see how it plays and especially interested in that whole rotating minigun thing. Oops. All right. Come on. All right. Jamie got a multiball right off the bat. He's getting them jackpot. He's getting them jackpots. All right. Let's go, Jamie. I don't know if he has he can catch up, but he's got that 10x going and he's Oh, wow. He's hing them jackpots. Use the force, Jamie. Oh, he's good. Give Give the man the words of encouragement. He is He's suffering. Oh, that's rough. Maybe I should have yelled that. All right, get the ball save out early. Let's see if he Let's Let's see what he can do. Can he catch up to Jim? Who knows? All right. He's lighting He's lighting the bumpers and the and the gosh, I don't know what they're called. He's lighting the rollovers. All right. Up the Death Star here. Let's see. Let's see what he's going to do. Is he going to start the mode? All right. He's at a 10x. Maybe maybe he can catch up, but we'll see. Man, what's happening here? All right, he got the extra ball. That's going to be some free points when he has to do the plunge. Man, that that loop right there is is killer. I tried trash can. I actually really tried there. Yeah. Um bad multiball and uh you know, again, it's not a game I really like. Uh I tried. Damn it. I'm I I really tried. Now Tom plays on a game preserved north and they have Star Wars and these guys play the [] out of it. So they know all the rules. They know all the intricate. Is it uh is it the pro or the premium? Cuz I believe this is the premium. This is the premium because you can see the hyperspace loot. Mhm. Um, but you know, he got past me. So, 2/3 and a fourth for me. That's no bueno. Hey, hey, don't beat yourself up, man. Ah, no good. All right. Do you guys still want to hang out or do you want to uh do you want to see the the next two rounds or do you want me to shut it down? You guys decide cuz part of me wants to go get a burger. Listen, I'd say let the man eat, but viewers at home, vote now on your phones. Yeah, they vote. If they if they want me on your phone, if they want me to stay, I'll stay, right? If there's eight people here, and I feel bad for them, but uh yeah, I just didn't have fun there. And it is about having fun, right? And I got in my head and it made it not fun. Um, but plus my wife's been out of town, Victor, right? My wife's been out of town for four and a half weeks. Oh, wow. Okay. She comes back tomorrow. The house is not perfect. Okay. Can I be honest with you? Yeah. Okay. And in the back of my head, I'm saying to myself, "Oh [] this beautiful girl's coming back. Uh, get delivery. Fat JC says. All right, I'll go get delivery. Let me Uber Eat something. I'll log out for you. Says, uh, I believe that's that's Jeremy, right? Who? Pimp Paladian. I don't know who that is. It looks like Jeremy. Okay. Jeremy, I apologize if your name isn't Jeremy. I I'll I'll double check the match. Oh, he's [] that up, too. This game. Oh, he got a ball safe. This game is just doesn't suit my eye, you know. All right. Where am I delivering this food to? Here. Yeah. There you go. Come on, Ted. Get a second, dude. He's at 10x. Yeah, Jeremy. Okay. Thank God. All right. So, Jeremy, where are you? Are you here? No, he he wants to be back home. Okay, good little micro flip. Head in the way. Don't worry about it. If we had a light, if the guy, the light man was here. Dude, it was so funny me [] on lights and then I'm like, what's next? pen shades and gloves and tool belts like but I'm being a wise ass right. Yeah. Okay. I'm just being me. Yeah. And can you believe the luck that the dude's wife is right there? I mean what kind out of 108 people? What are the chances? Victor. Uh larger larger than you think. Yeah. Apparently. All right. He's escaping Boba Fett. Like, why is this necessary? Why is it flashing? Look at all these lights. I bet you the guy at the bat would be fine with no lights. All right, so that's a third for Jamie. But congratulations. It looks like uh let's look at the group here once they enter this and see who got through. I think Tom O'Neal and uh Jim Mueller moving on. Yep. I I can believe that. Okay. But I can tell you right here, people, if we pull this up here, look at this and I put up Star Wars. You can see Jamie's shitty points. And that is it. So Jim Mueller and Tom O'Neal are going to be moving on. Me and Ted are back here. Okay. Uh, let's go back to the YOLO box and uh All right. So, we're going to stay. I'm going to order some food. Uh, I'm going to ask Ted if he wants to stay on the get on the mic with you for a little bit. Is that all right? Of course. Yeah, no worries. Hey, Ted, you want to join? Yeah. You want to do a little loser clown? Yeah. Let's do a Why don't you and Victor hang out for a minute? I'm going to order some food. I got to jet after this, but Okay. All right, ladies and gentlemen, everyone, please give a warm welcome to Ted. All right, let me have it, guys. How was that? How bad was that? I thought it was okay. But I don't know [] about that game. Ty gave me a little pep talk before. He's like, "You got to shoot the I mean, I I got I got advice from Travis way back when about playing as Han Solo and doing all that earth stuff." I hit I hit a billion points when uh when I was visiting friends back in Illinois. Haven't hit that high since. I know the feeling. I mean, I don't know the feeling of getting a billion. I think that might be the best game of Star Wars I've ever played, which is wasn't good enough. Good guy. But oh, so much fun. Who uh who's in the chat? We got We got Jeremy, we got Fat JC, we got Mike Fagan. Mike is my guy. We got Electric Bat Arcade. We got Trash Ninja. Oh, what's up, Electric Bat? Hey, uh the new uh podcast they put out with uh Kale and Serge is freaking awesome. It's like they were just talking about pinball design and rules. Yeah, highly recommend it. It uh taught me a lot. I think about that stuff a lot, but I didn't They created like a whole framework for how to think about pinball rules. It's very organized and interesting. So, I'll leave it at that. Check it out. What's going on, man? Did you play today? Yeah, I played I played eight rounds and I might have gotten in, but Jurassic Park just screwed me. Mama Mia, I always panic on that game. And then, but I had such a killer total nuclear annihilation. Oo, a third ball. I was like, I need to get this multiball. F first punch, knocked it right in. Second punch, knocked it right in. Third punch, knocked it right in. I was like, man. So, what I need the chat to tell me what should I have done other than drain immediately on my first two ball on Star Wars. I like it when Kale says things and Jamie gets a text message. Lol says, there you go, trash can. Yeah, it's the pinball community is so small. It's kind of like uh we're all just hanging out all the time. People are cool. I love it. Also, Jamie's a popular guy. What do you expect? How can you not like Jamie Burchil? Guy's a He's a saint. What he does, you know, he moves this rig around and has this whole setup. It's all him. Like, no one, you know, he bought all this stuff and does it so that we can enjoy the best pinball in Houston. And you know that that's the thing I I don't think a lot of people I think I know in this community people know this but I think a lot of people just you know don't they think everything will be around forever but truthfully some Jamie you know great guy but I wouldn't put it past him tomorrow he said you know what that's it I'm going to sell all my pit stop it oh ear muffs everybody we can't talk about that hey I know I know but I'm just saying like if it It happens. It happens. Yeah. And some people need to realize like nothing lasts forever, you know. Pinball lasts forever. Pinball's not going anywhere. As long as I have anything to say about it, we're playing pinball. Set your multiplier, says Mike. All right. Thanks, Mike. How the hell do I do that, Mike? It's a mystery. The one thing Ty told me, hey, when you're in multiball, the the button is going to turn orange, and that's an addabal. And after I drained, I looked down and it was orange. And I said, "I might as well hit the button." And it worked. Oh, bummer. I had lit shots, but they were red, so the multiplier didn't count. So, which shots do count for the multipliers? The green ones. The blue ones. Mike, where are you, buddy? You're an awesome player. You should be out here kicking our butts. Yeah, Mike, I haven't seen you in a while. I hope you're doing well. If you had to have an Evil Dead or a Scooby, which one would you pick? Oh, hell yeah. Are you kidding? I would definitely want to do despite all the rumors. Should I start doing the Zen? I've heard a lot about the Zen. No, I don't. I don't think so. I'm high on life, buddy. Sugar is the only stimulant I need. Yeah, I drink a lot of water. You got to stay hydrated. Yep, that's for sure. In Arizona and here in Houston TX, even though it's humid as hell here, you got to It's It's a hot humid. That's the issue. I'm from LA. People think LA is hot, but it's like a LA is a LA is a pleasant hot like Minnesota compared to this place. Yeah, exactly. Evil Dead hands down. Well, that's one one Come on, trash can. I'm looking for hot takes. So, for all you art history fans out there, here's my qu it's a question, but it's really a quiz because I know the right answer. Are you familiar with the famous sculptor Bernini, the Italian sculptor from the No, I do not. Okay, it doesn't matter. He's like the greatest sculptor of all time. He's probably like a top five architect of all time. He could paint. He had supposedly a beautiful wife and 11 kids. Happy man. Did it all in the art scene of the time. He was considered the best. The king loved him. All that stuff. Who's the Bernini pinball? Mostly the one guy who can do everything and he doesn't. Wow. There's only one answer. [Music] It's Victor. It's me. Oh, man. Wow. Who's a great tournament player? Great pinball designer. I'm not that. I'm not the second one. Oh, you are for sure you are. What about tournament player? We're getting there. All right, I got no takers on my quiz. All right. Uh, it's all right. You guys can argue it out after I leave. Gomez. Gomez is a good answer, but no, he's more of like the Michelangelo. Uh, Mike, uh, work in pinball repair. All right. CL classic. Pat JC says, "I have a Evil Dead locally. I think it's all time great pen." I need I need to play him more to really form an opinion. Well, another shout out to the Electric Bat. They just put out a uh basically a tutorial on Evil Dead and hot dogging. Yeah, trash can. That's what I'm looking for. It's Keith Elwin. Um, but if you want to learn some Evil Dead, you got to watch the guys from Electric Bat playing it because they've got the rules master Serge and they've got John Shoppel who is like a top top player and so he's basically coaching him and Kale who's also an awesome player and they are going through the whole game and they're talking about it. If you like that kind of stuff and if you're watching this stream I guess that I would imagine that you do. you'd be. If you don't like that kind of stuff and you're watching this, what's going on? Get out of here. Get the hell out of here. You're just watching this to make fun of me play badly on Star Wars. That's rude. It's mean. I will I agree with Mike though. Having $7,000 would be very nice. But uh I think for your for in response to your question, Pat Lawler. Very nice. He did say Mr. Pat Lawler. Was Pat Lawler a great tournament player? that I don't know. I know that Lyman Sheets was a great tournament player. Rest in peace. And RIP and probably the greatest coder of all time, so he could be in the in the argument for that for that Bernini award. Walt Wood as the best personality. I agree. I watched Walt I don't know Walt Wood, but I watched him play an unbelievable game of Jurassic Park. Also, we're talking a lot about Electric Bat, but the point is he seems like a really chill dude and a very good pinball player. So, there you go. Shouts to Waltwood. I'm not that familiar with a lot of the pin uh the figures in pinball, unfortunately. The what? I'm not really that familiar with a lot of the figures in pinball. The figures. Yeah, I got problems, man. I'm watching streams. I think the the papa the big world championship is happening right now. Let's tune in to this child right now. Let's tune in to the child. It's ball three on uh hot dogging right now. All right. I don't know how it works, so let's not touch it. Don't touch it. Don't touch Jamie's toys. Uh are we going to move the rig? You need a rig move. A rig move. Well, I could, but I don't want to interrupt your game. Yeah, I I was trying to There's a child playing, so I was like, let's let's zoom in on the child. I think that our conversation is so good that it's going to keep it's going to keep put people playing while playing Doctor Who as a central pinball. Absolutely insane. All right, Mike. I didn't know there were so many Walt Wood videos. I just saw the one. See, there are people who are even sicker than me. You sickos. I recently got into whirlwind on my VP. It's so good. Yeah, that JC. Can I give a shout out to someone that nobody has ever heard of probably on this chat is um my man Flapper. He did the virtual recreation of whirlwind that you are playing most likely. If it has like looks like the real game with the nice lighting and the good physics, that's going to be Fluffer, who is uh I think he's probably the greatest virtual pinball recreator out there. Don't forget to put a fan on your computer for the authentic experience. Yeah, you got just just take the fan out away from your that's cooling your actual computer and just put it on top of your on top of your monitor or whatever. Oh, hey. Hey, Henry. Henry. Is it Henry or I hope Lawler does one more game. He can't end on Toy Story 4. Hot take. I like Toy Story 4. Yeah, Fat JC 4K with perfect physics. That's got to be Flipper. So, if you like that, he just released uh The Walking Dead uh which I believe is going to be remastered is the rumor. But, uh yeah, bonus pinball. Let's go. Bonus pinball. Let's do it. All right. No one no one's listening to us uh ramble. It's time for pinball. Travis. Time for Stranger Things. It's Travis Boseman. So, I've seen Travis a bunch, but today was the first day I really got to talk with him. Oh, come on, Travis. Travis, we just tuned in. Come on. He Travis seems like an excellent human being, and I really enjoyed talking to him today. And that man is jacked. He's getting he's getting them. Yeah, he got looking like that working on a pinball company. No, he he said he works out now. So, he works out, too. Okay, that's that would take a lot of nudging and stuff to get in that good of shape. Yeah, just just kind every day just screwing something with a screwdriver. All right, it looks like ball ball three player four. Who's up? Lee. Lee is a freaking awesome player. Let's see. Is he plunging the 64 million? He's got a quite a hill to climb. Oh, that's coming back, folks. Here we go. Little bounce over. Where's he going? Trying to hit the lock. He's already through. Back to you. All right. You want to hop in here, Jamie? I got to run. Thank you guys. Yeah. All right. No one gave me enough gifts for my Ted. Everyone. Ted. [Music] Okay. Travis is good people. All right, brother. Thank you. Okay. Well, Victor, I ordered me some burger joint. I ordered a smashed burger. Great choice. Should be here soon. Lee has already advanced. Michael, that's why. Uh, let's try to get you to the standings if I can. Uh, let's see. That is my group. You don't want to see that. Uh, but I can change and show you. Uh they just finished on Rush. So Tai is moving on and Jason Welsh. Nice Jason. Good for Jason. Right. And then in that last group which was uh Stranger Things, if I could find it. [Music] Oh, there it is. Uh, and there you can see, ladies and gentlemen, well, someone with no name is moving on with lead. So, there you go. All right, next round is up. I'm going to find out where to move this rig and we'll go from there. [Music] Oh, what they're doing is they're picking their order. So, we got six games left, ladies and gentlemen. See you later, man. Jonathan Henson taking out. Um, so we're going to have some fun, me and you, right? We're going to hang out here. Why not? It's only 8:10. I only have [] to do. Clean my house and make sure I'm ready for my wife to come back. Oh, bedtime. That's 3:00 a.m. on Saturdays. I'm probably going to have to tonight because of all the crap I got to do. Um, it's just too long a format. Eight rounds plus three three group three game rounds. That's too much. It is. But I mean this isn't Papa for God's sakes. What are we doing? But also I mean you remember the old days when we used to have strikes at wormholes? That would last forever. I know. But all right, let me see where we're going and I'll be right back. 13 rounds of strikes. Jamie, is that what you want? Uh, I'm showing my bias here, but uh, the Oklahoma Michigan uh, game is on. And as a Midwestern boy, I'm very sad that Michigan is doing nothing against the Sooners. Come on, Wolverines. All right, Jamie's moving the rig. David, how'd you do on Toy Story? How'd you do on Toy Story? Well, [Music] Oh, Henry shush. All right, looks like we're It's TNA time, baby. Let's blow up them reactors. Yeah, it looks beautiful. Okay, I got my food coming. I'm going to be okay. That's That's what we want to hear, Jamie. That's what we want to hear. That's what All right, so we know this game, right? Scott Danesi's finest. So, okay. I know what happens. What happens up here? What do you do up there? So, once you blow up your reactor, you got to get up there. Did you guys see how big that rig was when I came by? Can you see it? Yeah, it was huge. Jesus. All right. So, what he wants to do is two There's two ways to play it. Okay. I don't have a towel trader. You see this bank? Oh, you see this bank of nine targets? Drop target. That mean you know. Yeah, that's a reactor. So, that's the reactor. You got to blow that son of a [] up. What you want to do is be locking balls. Mhm. and then pummel the reactor. Get up top. Do some work up there. Get your one, two, three, and your switches. And then it'll something red will pop up and it'll tell you. Now, the mistake that Jason made right there is look at his ball saved. It's almost done. Trap it up. No, this is a very hard shot backhanding it. It It's much easier to backhand Jason. Jason's my dark horse. Um, there it is. Soft plunge. Okay. Now, see, it's too dangerous. Oh, got lucky. He's good. But if you soft plunge it, then you can catch it on your right flipper and it's a much easier backhand. What's nervous now is what I was going to say is now player three has two balls and can steal it. A total steel. Um, what do I think about TNA? um sequel. I love it. I I'm a multimmorphic fan. Is it Palm Resistance? Yeah, I haven't played it yet. It's fantastic. I didn't know. Trash Ninja. I'm winning the Power Ball, not you. I'm winning the Powerball. I manifested it. There it is. Small short plunge. Oh, he got unlucky there. So, it's it's funny that you say that, right? cuz I was on TNA earlier and I full plunged it and just nailed every all three shots. Did you? Yeah. All right. Easy backhand. No. Okay. Don't worry. Sometimes you get so anxious knowing that you've got There it is. Okay. Pummeled the middle. Get your grid. Okay. That's all you want to do in multiball. There it is. One more. He's got two to the left. One more. So, all right. He's out of safe. So, he's got two balls still. He's going got three. All right. So, now in this multiball, try to get your Oh, okay. That's rough. Shake it off. Oh, okay. So, his reactor now he's got to start the reactor by going into the scoop. I didn't tell you that. Yep. Backhanded all day. Okay. Little too good save. [Music] Oh, good try. Trash can needs a new job. Oh, nice. All right, now he starts that reactor now. Get it up top. Watch this blowout. Now watch out for this this eject. Okay, not bad. Gave him a ball save. No, that's just so unlucky. Oh, we got a ball save. Oh, no. You don't want to see that, folks. No, you don't. Our boys next to us are playing Jetsons uh on the rig. But TNA does slap uh Enzo, it sure does. Uh here's Ty. Let's see where my food is. Oh, he's calling you. I'll be right back. Sounds good. All right, Ty, let's see what you got. He's got most of the reactors lit. Let's see if he can lock a ball in. All right, that's ball number one. Let's go. He's going to do it. Oh, a little too soft. There we go. Another soft lunge. And let's see if he can backhand this in. Ooh, beautiful. Now he's going for straight for the multiball. Ooh, a little nervous. No, nervous, but come on. Sink that in. Oh, one more. One more. Oh, we're off the platform. Okay. Okay, he's got trapped. No. All right, good tap pass. There we go. Let's go. Yeah, he's got that multiball. All right, he's got that multiball. He's got one more from that reactor start. Got the ball trapped up. All right, now he can start that reactor. Let's blow up some nukes, baby. Woo. Come on. I games pinball games are so weird because sometimes the scoop is the hardest thing to hit. Other days that's all I can hit is the scoop. Can't hit anything else. But I can sure nail that scoop. All right, he's waiting. All right, let's see if he can get in the back end. Back end of that scoop. He's thinking. Ooh. Oh, nailed it. It's reactor time, baby. Oh, it's going critical. Woo! Folks, if you can see Jamie right now, he is one happy camper. [Music] All right, we're going up top. Tiger going to try to get up top again. Nope. Oh, that's a bad drain right there. Let's look at the scores. Looks like Looks like he's in the lead. I can't really tell. [Music] All right, David's up. Is Jamie do fisting the diet cokes? No. Unfortunately, he's only got one diet coke. All right, he's got the ball trapped up. Ooh, right in. Beautiful backhand. Another good soft plunge into the scoop. That That's Ooh. Oo, ball's moving a little quick. Into the scoop again. Oh, ball save. Ball save. All right, so David here has another chance to get into the multiball locks. Beautiful. Beautiful backhand. One more. He is he feeling it? Is he feeling it, Mr. Krabs? We'll see. Boom. Oh, boom. All right, he got it. It's time to activate those reactors. React. Hey, everyone. It's Josh Mitchell. Look at this beautiful man. He's got Look at this [] Whoa. Whoa. Hey. It's a kids friendly show. Yeah. This is family friendly. Come on. Yeah. Sorry. Never mind the fact Jam was swearing earlier, but you know, I thought they were going to change uh guesses because it's a really buggy game and um it you know what whatever is fair is fair, but it gave uh I think it was me playing was a it gave him a multiball for like no reason, but apparently we're going to still play. All right, that's that's unfortunate. Yeah, but you know that's and that's suggest that happened to me in the finals of league once and John was like play on Josh Mitchell everyone all right trash can says that my pinball collective when it happens I'm going to have full stock of die codes for Jamie god speed man godspeed bet Ji when he gets that burger grease, it'll be a game changer. I agree, man. Like, always keep yourself fed, man. No reason no reason to starve yourself. Like, it's an awful family. All right, let's see. Oh, sorry. I missed everything right there. All right, next player. Come on. Get Get it in there. Get Oh, get those multi balls. Okay. Come on. All right. One reactor hit. I think he's has active. Yeah, you can see the start reactor is lit, so he's got it. He's going for that backhand. O. Nope. One more backhand. Come on. Oh, you hear safe cracker? No. Unfortunately, no. No. No safe cracker here. Would be fun to play here though. So, second player. Not not much could be done there. All right, player number three. Let me let me check the Let me check the match play so I don't keep calling them guys players and know the actual name. That's a Jetson we're hearing. That sure is Henry. Uh yeah, Fat JC. That's Jetson. What you're probably hearing is probably Jetson. All right. So Brian, uh no, I'm sorry. Tai is up now again. Uh, but that was Jason Walsh and Brian Brian as well. So, now that I know their names, I can uh not be a terrible person. All right, Ty. Ty's got that second lock in. Let's see if you can get that multiball one more time. Come on, Ty. Come on. Back. Get that back hand. Boom. All right. What a what a what a backhand. [Music] right, Ty hasn't lit the re reactor yet, but see if he can get it. Enzo says, "I'm dying to play Jetsons." It's an all right game. I don't really have stronger feeling uh feelings about it either way. But it is a rare game, so see if you can find one in your area. All right, hit that scoop. He his mystery is lit, but let's see if we can get that final target. Nope. One more time. One more. Nope. All right, he's back to locking them balls. Let's Will he get another multiball after this? We'll see. All right, he's adjusting his hat. One more. One more for that for that second multiball and one ball. Wow. Oh, he did it. What a mad man. He's on reactor 2 as well. So, this will take a little harder. Couple more hits to blow up. Good ball control by Tai here. Let's see if he can keep it up. All right. Oh, damn. He's just he's nailing those targets right now. Unfortunate run on the multiball. All right, he's got his mystery. Let's see what he does next. All right. He's going up top. All right, everyone. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back Jamie. He's now fed and he's happier, I imagine. Oh, I feel so much better. See, all here to do is eat. Oh, is he? He's dying to play Jetson's. Why? You know why? It's a rare game. I think everyone everyone loves playing rare games. Oh, you you can't stream it. Oh, yeah. It's so Oh my god, that is bright. No, the reason you can't stream that game is because they don't show you the score. Oh, right. I forgot. Remember remember the worm rule? You couldn't see anything. You couldn't do anything. A Uh-oh. O, Ty, you missed it. But Ty got two multiballs uh in that life. Oh, really? Yeah. I don't think he he was able to blow up the reactor, but he came close. He came very close. Okay. Ball three. Player one. [Music] Player one. Here he comes. All right, David. Let's see what he can do. No. See, he full plunged it. And you really can't do it cuz now his ball save is gone. He's going for it. He's risking it for the biscuit. He's risking it. He's here. He's like, "I'm here. I'm going up." Oh, it's a weird game, right? I love it. But it is weird. All right. I believe Jason is up next. Let me double check. Yes, Jason. Jason is up next. Jason is in the happy to be here stage, and there's nothing wrong with that. Oh, hey Matt. Hey, Matt. Rodon. Matt, you lied to me. You said I heard you were coming. Yeah. Where where's Matt? Had a birthday party, I heard. All right, his ball save's running out. Let's see if he can lock in these balls. Oh, you got to bump that, right? You got to bump it up. Well, yes, but I Sometimes you bump it and it just kills itself faster. That's true, but you got to give it a shot. Yeah. Got to give it a shot. Give it a little little oomph. Give it a little bump. All right. Uh, next up is Brian, I believe. Yes, Brian. Brian. Student says, "Yeah, I think TNA is I I agree with him or her them. I agree with them. It's It's a no gimmicks, all skills type of a game. It is. You got to slow it down. You can't just whale this game, right? You You're a whaler. Not gonna work. Oh, he got lucky. What a good lock. That was That was a weird lock, right? And again, you got to soft punch. Well, I That's the auto kick, right? Oh, yeah. But you if you pull it quickly, you could soft plunge and and trick the auto. Get ahead of it. Get ahead of that thing. All right, he's got his mystery. Let's see what I don't know what he got. That screen is too bright for the camera. Oh yeah, you can't see it. The exposure. He's trying to get up there. Yeah. This is Jason who moved from Htown to San Hey Jason, how are you? And say hello to what's growing for me. You know I love those people. They're outstanding. Oh, there's the multiball. There he goes. He went from one crew to another. Nice. Good. Good group of people. San Antonio folks. Yeah, but clearly we're vetting. They're great. I love what's brewing. Tony and and his wife Kim and all the great peeps there from the Hope Love and the coffee. Delicious. You know, I Oh, there it is. There's the reactor. Now go up top in there later. I really wish I could tell what the score was cuz it's blinding. Yeah, it is blinding, isn't it? [Music] All right. He's almost got core lit. I don't know what that does exactly, but hopefully it's something good. What time is it? It's 8:30. We're not going to get out of here for another 2 hours. Probably not. So, here's my dilemma, right? Like, I'm not kidding you. I didn't think that this I was told it was going to be just eight people, but then they said 16 last minute. And they said 16 last minute. And I don't have time for 16. Like I have to go. Oh, you got to go. You got to go. Right. Yeah. So, I'm probably going to shut this down, ladies and gentlemen. I'm sorry, but uh it's not because I'm assapped either. It's just I've got a lot of work to do before my wife gets home. Well, you should have done it earlier. I I did, but I was on a conference call this morning for work. All right. Brian's doing I I again I wish I could tell if he's catching up to Tai or not, but yeah, there it is. Good. Get in that reactor now. Okay. [Music] Uh back hand backand. Yeah. Oh no, that he's got it. Get lucky here. Trap it now. Backhand it, Brian. Oh, little. Now he's Now he's early. Good bounce, though. Oh, and he's got the mystery lid as well, so Okay, here it is. He's got it. He's going to dial this. Yeah, he got it. I was telling the viewers earlier, um, some days all I can't hit I can hit everything else but the scoop. Other days it's only the scoop I can hit. Yeah, I'm sorry, Fat JC. I'm sorry. We could have We could have stood here for a long time. And I apologize. It's just uh I was told it was 8 and then it became 16 and I just don't have time for that tonight. I ain't got time for that. [Music] You know, trash can. I think we're going to do another live soon. I I really do. Once uh what's what's the the announcement is on the 5th. So that's that's the rumor. Wait, it's already the 6th. Yeah, I I think they're going to put the trailer out this week because they've got content creators coming in on Thursday. Matt Matt wants more streams. No, Matt, I can't, dude. I can't. I had like a nine o'clock stop dead and I can't go anymore. I'm so sorry. You guys are going to have to tune in. Uh, thanks Fat. I hate calling someone fat, but he's got a cool name. Thanks, JC. All right. See, soft plunge. Watch. And a catch. So Brian looks like he's at 1 million, but I can't tell. Again, I can't tell what Tai's at, but we'll see if he can if he catch up. Well, he's still playing and it's ball three, so he must need it. So, he must need this two. There it is. And boom. That's how you play it. All right, let's see if he can blow up this reactor. He's on reactor number three, it looks like. Oh, nice. He's a good player. Okay, so there was no definitive date. CERN just said September. Okay. Like Big Tony. Oh, good. All right. No worries. Big Tony. Big Jay-T. Tony was the Gabbaoo. And he did it. He He uh he won it. All right. So, good job, Ty. Is that the end of Jamie Virtual Street? I think so, dude. Is that okay? Are you sure? No. Hey, if you got to go, you got to go. I got to go, guys. I'm so sorry. It's going to take me an hour just to unpack all this [***] So, I'm looking at like three more hours and I can't do it. Take care of yourself first. All right. Yeah. Jamie comes first. Ladies and gentlemen, I love you so so much. I'm sorry I'm ending it, but uh I got to Yep. I got to my for my mental health, for my wife, cuz I don't want to hear it because I've she's been gone for 4 weeks, ladies and gentlemen. And if this house is a disaster when she comes tomorrow. Uh, you should have cleaned it last week, J. No, I was in I was in the bat. I was in Arizona. So, God bless you all. Love you so, so much. Thank you supporting me, Trash Can and Fat JC and everybody here. I'm really sorry.
