## Analysis

IE Pinball streams extended gameplay on Stern's Rush (AC/DC Premium), showcasing high scores on multiple modes including 12+ billion on 'La Villa Strangiato' and 31+ billion on 'Cygnus X-1 Book II'. The stream focuses on playfield mechanics, combo building, and strategy discussion, with modifications visible including masking kits and cooling fans.

### Key Claims

- [HIGH] Rush Premium has combo-based gameplay with exponential scoring that rewards building multiple shots before collecting — _Streamer discussing gameplay mechanics throughout, referencing 'Transformers combo' and scoring values_
- [HIGH] The upper loop mod costs $160 and raises the inserts for visibility — _Streamer states: 'I looked up the mod, uh, so I could see that upper loop. You know, it raises the inserts. It's $160! Something like that.'_
- [HIGH] Pin Monk sent modding kits including masking, gel inserts for instruments, and quiet fan kit — _Streamer: 'Pin Monk was very kind and sent me the masking for the allies, the colors for the modes, and then the colors for the gel inserts for the instruments. And then also a quiet fan kit.'_
- [MEDIUM] Rush Premium has naturally brutal difficulty but allows longer play sessions than Godzilla — _Streamer's comparative analysis: 'Rush is also naturally more brutal. But I feel like I'm playing longer on this. Naturally. Than Godzilla.'_
- [HIGH] The game features scoop mechanisms with two different eject patterns depending on ball lock status — _Streamer discussing scoop mechanics: 'There's two ejects. Yeah, yeah. There's a go out the right unless you have a ball locked then it'll always come out the bottom'_

## Transcript

 If I could stream the new Monkey Island and not I want to I'm hope I actually hoped I could do that over the winter break I have a week off of work so I can find the time between in this stuff because I haven't played it I've watched videos I I'm very much looking forward to playing that game like the one game that I want to play we're just gonna test the picture buddy cam work in here whoo yeah let's go okay I move things around on my layout here, so I'm a little... You know that desk I used for my computer over there? That's a... It's got wheels. I meant to always move it around to where I'm going, but instead I have a monitor that's on an arm. He's on a plate of nachos, exactly. Now he just moved the whole thing. What mods do I have in this? Pin Monk was very kind and sent me the masking for the allies, the colors for the modes, and then the colors for the gel inserts for the instruments. And then also a quiet fan kit. Looks like a plate of scrambled eggs. and then I noticed I wanted to add a fan to the upper flipper last stream but I didn't get to it I did modify I did hopefully the sling doesn't go crazy like last time hopefully the game so game two if you're watching on twitch later on the VOD this is probably muted or it's going to be muted so you probably didn't hear that at some point I will upload one of these to YouTube big scoop I did turn off the two seconds I set it back down to one second and I turned it off in multiple since it's last stream it was not firing down the middle today it's going to fire down the middle right um what should I try to do what should I do I think I really want to point press Lavia I'm going to try to say the third word in that song title. See if I can get far in that. With a high score. Never seen a fixed scoop do that before? Yeah, this is the new, this is how they come out now with the two giant blocks on the side that I really would actually like to take off. Game two, yeah, I only played one game last week, I think, right? Alright I have Spirit of Radio on the upload so I'll still go for that That was one game I think Barely got it Yeah, it was a long stream It was a very long stream I guess we're going to Big Money Round Someone from building the first song, but I can build the, uh, I can get another rainfall this way, right? The score was about 18, Bill, somewhere around there. I didn't beat 21-12, which is disappointing. Four quarters. So this is a game, I mean, it's not always four quarters for one play. Is there another sound callout if it's, uh, on 75-cent play, or 50% play? Curious here. Steve! Thank you! Thank you for the sub for 33 months. You rushed. That's three! That's three. Maybe I can get some big combos too. Actually, work on getting a good... I want to get over a billion in combos. My high is 900 something. I barely made it. Of course, I'm cashing out a combo way too early right now, but I'm in the mode. What's wrong with big money is I have to cash out the combo. To progress. I need to do what Dalton did probably and take the rubbers off the in lane and out lane. Right now it's just they're at the wide open position. We got one trillion yet. One trillion. Oh, I didn't want that. Oh, it's your favorite. Nice. Oh, keep it, keep it. You got one. You got two. Like we say in Canada, beauty, eh? Bartender, quarters, please. Hey, Alex, the time machine is ready. Come on. Gotta find that left orbit. Might as well take the right since it's there. Nope, let's not take the right. Bye, it's dead. Oh, close. This game's all about the post-catch on the right, I feel. So, gee, stop that. That's two. shoot the right ramp. I was going to say, what would you do to this game in a tournament? Money, money, money, money. Oh, he's gone. Where'd he go? Oh, he's at the bottom of it. You did it, Dalton. I saw you did it. I want to know if You know, you said that having the posts all the way down you think is worse, but I'm betting that left one is worse with it up. Worse with it up all the way, because it's going to hit the metal on the side and just go thunk. It'll go thunk and die. Ooh, that got me the D. I shouldn't have gone for Bastille, but I had to because it was there. Woo boy. Woo boy. Three. Up the middle. Bad value, big money. Three. Up the middle. Bad value, big money. Having the post all day. Yeah. I understand the ball to flex off the post, but I still think this left one. Taking the post out completely is probably the best way to do it. ZMAC. And Wireball, how are you doing? ZMAC, thank you. Thanks for the sub. All right, so I have two extra balls left. I don't want to mess these multi balls up this time. Last time I really... I did not do what I should have done. I had to replay a lot of stuff. But then I also didn't know exactly what I had to do. Oh god. Really? Man that scoop kick out was nasty. I don't know where my rainbow went. Son of a... Where did it go? It went on... That was unintentional. The right orbit one was unintentional today. And that's all dead. We're going to keep going. Slow down. Finish big money. Yeah. Stop. All right. All right. Where am I? I am... Okay. All right. All right. Woo. Zero pop-up. Yeah. Off the... Yeah. Like I said, my fast right orbits on mine don't hit the pops at all. They're just like a fly out. I missed the 10x Chivo. Don't I have it already? I have it from last time, I think. Thanks. Oh, it pops. There we go. Pop, pop. Pop, pop. I looked up the mod to, uh, so I could see that upper loop. You know, it raises the inserts. It's $160! Something like that. Bye. Bye. Hey, Multibrawler. Main reason you don't go rainbow on the right orb is because you're scared of the right orb. Yeah, yeah, exactly. Exactly. you've got an extra ball we're not maxed out in rpm yet i missed the easy shot what did i get Bad, bad, bad. But we're going to have to play that one again. At some point. That's one. Alright. Do we play Limelight now or not? That's the question. Take it. They'd be blinking red, but your pops are naturally red. Bunny has a cooldown. I don't know. I don't remember what it did. Alright. Where's this thing? Just move through things. Oh, I need 6,500. Ah, see, I've been going 999. Yeah. Okay, okay, okay. Obviously, as you saw. Don't like this. All right, got my lock lit. Don't drain me. for those who think i'm greedy all right man i'm getting hungry higher rpm is higher jackpot well you know me i'm greedy i'm greedy and won everything ouch well that was Thank you, boss. Thank you. Come on. Get back on. Your pinball skill approaches the unreal. Your pinball skill approaches the unreal. Approach it. Alright. Oh, there's an achievement for using like the weapons in three different songs. I forgot what the songs were. I need to, I think I need to remember this. Hint. Hit the clipper every time Neil hits a drum. Alright. Alright. Lit shots. Lit shots. At this point. Don't want to finish Limelight. Let's see, let's take the right orbit, that's the, got the clock bonus on there too. Oh, nope, nope. Man, I love this riff. Oh boo boo boo Geez, I couldn't... I was hoping that would stop Alright Paul, where you going? Oh, oh. Double O. Alright, what am I doing? What am I doing? That's what I'm doing. Alright, Dead End or spinner for the shot. Probably spinner. I got to work on my car. Yeah, I got it. Oh. Now the key is let's get all the records the same color and I can change them later. Hey, Geddy, the time machine is ready. Happy Bastille Day, everyone. No Bastille Day here. Not right now, at least. Unless it's accidental. Oh, it's accidental. Sure. Give me that R accidentally. Oh, no. Oh, come on. Really? I'm not going to get the R? Nope. Not going to get the R. Did it? Alright. So, do I need to finish? I don't need to finish that for years, do I? Or do I? Alright. Uh, upper loop, upper loop. Uh, I've got both his combos already. You made me do Evo Sling. I saw that. I saw that. That's what your game does all the time, do you not? Uh-oh. Uh-oh. Okay. I want the multiball. Do I want the multiball? I should take it. I should. Yeah. I can build records. Oh, no. Oh, no. Nope, that's not good. Thank you, Ball Save. Ugh. I got scared there. There we go. Ugh. To take the rubbers off and experience Slinkdown, Pop-Town, and Bork. Yeah. Yep. Am I out of ball right now? Damn it. I'm not working on jackpot values here. I want to build records. I want to miss all my shots and I want combos. I'm just missing everything right now. Great. Guess I should have built the record. No, not that one. It's not a combo that I need. Let's get the first hit over here so I can get out of all ready. First hit. All right. I want to build records because I want to get a big Livia blah blah blah blah song Because I have 4x Rambo I also have two tilt warnings, I mean two no tilt warning class I really want to be here when I get the 12-way, huh? If I get the 12-way. 12-way, it's a massive value, right? That's the goal. Oh, no. Okay. I'm rich from the mystery. I can't make progress towards album during multiple right right digital yeah that's right That's right, that's why it doesn't matter that I hit a shot that I already had. Oh, that. I was going to hit the same shot twice. Oh, that was bad. What am I doing? I've got an add-a-ball sitting there, don't I? Right? No, I don't, because I just messed it up. I totally messed it up. No add-a-ball for me. That was dumb. That was a... I forgot the rules of the multivolve. Fully blinked on it. See there. Why did that go to that side? Right there. What was that? Because my diverter... I mean, it specifically went up. It was because I had the half ramp. And I went straight to the right ramp after that. Again, I didn't look at the stream. Oh, Steve. Thank you for the bits. Uh-oh. All right. I have a multivolve. I don't want to take right now. That's three! That's three! Uh-oh. I don't like this. I feel like watching this game is just me going to be like... Like... Like incomprehensible, kind of. I feel like I'm just like mumbling. I'm still trying to figure out my... how I want to play the game. I headlong and right orbit and I post fast. Keep my music low. I'll put it on YouTube. I just need to do that. Super! Oh, what was that? Alright, 260. I want 500 of these. Am I out of all? Yeah. 38 music appeal expires. See, I'll just put it up. I don't care if they take my mom's name. I'm trying not to care. Wow. Look at all those millions. YouTube does not have my financial information either, so I haven't gotten a single payoff from YouTube anyways. They keep telling me every month. So make your data. Hey, it's Miriam. The balls are flying. The balls are flying. Super Jetpump. What do I need? What do I need? Super Jetpump. Balls feel like they're slightly magnetized now. Shoot the right ramp. We're collecting millions. Super Jackpot! Saw a Z-Mac with a 1200 plus, huh? Nice. That pinball on the internet is very lucrative. You can use it to retire. Absolutely. Back end, how are you doing? Happy Bastille Day, everyone. Do I want Bastille Day? Do I care? Did I get that answer? I didn't pay attention. I mean, there is an achievement for 100 million Bastille Day, right? So I guess I do need it for that. Darn H. If I don't get the H accidentally, I don't get it. Oh, I'm falling late. Oh, I got it. But that wasn't worth anything. I'm not looking. 23 million. Yay. Uh oh, too hard. I need... left arm. Left arm. Solas, you can make your stage nicely if you... You just have to widen your flipper gap. I didn't change this, this one's just not an actor. Stock balls, yeah. Stock balls. Completing Bastille makes your next one worth more, so I need to keep completing them. Oh, that was a horrible, horrible shot. Oh, I nudged it. That was risky. Oh, thank you. Thank you, soft orbit. Oh, okay. Oh, go back in. You know, the pinballs I've gotten lately with the newer games haven't been horrible, so... That's why I've been using them. Oh! I will use my add-a-ball if I need to. Just because it's nice to keep the multiple going so I can build. Build, build, build, build, build. Try the jackpot values determined for this multiple. As I miss the shot over. Scoring is exponential, so starting at 8 mil instead of 4 mil can be a difference. That's for best of it. Right. I got you. I got you. Let that ball fly! Alright, time for this. The clock! The clock! I gotta pay attention to the clock. That makes total sense. You know, if I thought hard enough, I probably would have figured it out, right? Fly headlong right into that jackpot, buddy. My million! Oh, goodness. Come on, Orbit There we go Two pop This is where my hand's gonna start cramping up 2x or scored in a combo 4x on the right hand 5x on the left hand 4x on the right hand Alright, nice You bring TNT into it now? I just wait side loop Side ramp Right ramp, got it Would I personally rather go up against someone in competitive play on Rush or Godzilla? I'm so confident on Godzilla, it would be that. I'm still learning the ins and outs of the deeper strategies in this, I feel. I don't know what I'd do in a competition on this yet. Out of all odds, I don't know. I feel like this game can be made pretty nasty in competition, but I don't think Godzilla, there's only There's so much you can do to Godzilla. But this game would scare me more. Ah! Alright, um... We're nice, that's okay. So now what do I do? Go for combos, I need to just finish off the, uh... I don't want to shoot the time machine, I know that. Ah. Of course, this is where I'm going to drain. Well, there went my 4X rainbows. I think it's easier to bastardize this game. I think that's where it is. Ready to Godzilla. Godzilla, I don't know what to do on that to make it really tough. And yeah, Godzilla, a lot of people are just tired of it now, so I think you'll be seeing Rush a bit more, being that there's no... You know, you can't really use Bond at all yet, so... Bond's got a long way to go. Alright, do I keep building now? Do we forget about Lavia until later on and we just try for a big Spirit of the Radio or something else? Or do I just build this up to whatever I can and play Lavia still even without the rainbow? What would you do? How did I do so far? I finished the game. I didn't beat the final mode but I got there last time. Timmy hated the rest of 24 hour made him want to change settings. Okay, so that's not a good idea. Got it. Come on. I want to hit that right ramp, but it might lock. Alright, I still have two combos I haven't finished. Finish the one on the dead end, finish the one on the right ramp, and the ones that are available. Time to start working on the other ones. I do want to finish the combo since the values go up. Oh. So I don't want to shoot the ramp, I want to shoot the upper loop. Man, that kick out is weird now. Upper loop to either. Okay, so I need both of those. So I can do another one of those now. Oh my gosh. That's going to up and over me one of these times. I know it. Alright, now it's ramp. Nope, that's not good. Whew. Grab the ball. Good record on the way. Nope, that's not getting a record. No, don't do that. Okay. I want the ramp, not the uppers. All right, so how many more until it goes up and over, huh? So you can see the pattern. It's going to do it. That kick out is going to kill me. Fight lock. Lock a ball in the top scoop. Jeez. Rush is also naturally more brutal. But I feel like I'm playing longer on this. Naturally. Than Godzilla. Ugh. Rio combo! Alright, we're down to just left over. Trying to get all the combos. The tilt is here. It is. It is. I got two on that first ball. I didn't really want the multiball right now. I can build the records during that. Alright. Records, records, records. Left over. I've got a lot of them actually. Ah, too early for that at all. I'm going to change the mode with that hit over there. Not that it will stay probably. Watch me big brick drain. Yeah, you know that's what's going to happen. You're just waiting for it. Yeah, Godzilla ends, you can keep this going forever, yeah. You know, I found a lot of people don't like the games that end for some reason. I really like them. I think they're... I mean, it depends on the game. You know, this has no reason to end. But Godzilla does. And I think it fits thematically. It's fantastic. You played this game completely wrong. How so? What do you do wrong? I mean, this is still early for me, so I don't know if you call how I'm playing right either. I'm just, I'm being very greedy here. That's for sure. Think how long I can get away with this. Oh, they want my mode change. The game. I'm off. Hit that shot again. Uh, that's not good. That's not good. This is the biggest LVS you've ever seen. It's, but, what do you mean? I don't have Latvia. I also don't have any multipliers anymore. That's one. Victory lap jackpot. I left Orbit, that's not great. All right, keep it running. It was on LVS. Yeah, it was. I'll change it back to it. I will. I'm not going to start something else at this point, even though I don't have the multiplier. Oh, this is super. Victory lap two. Projectile. Seven million! One little victory. Victory lap Victory lap jackpot All right, I need left orbit. Come on, give me a nice jump. Double super jackpot. How many years are on the jackpots here? A lot. Uh-oh. Okay. I'm 740% higher accuracy than you. Oh, what's that? Oh, I got a lot of record. Uh, right. Thanks. Happy Bastille Day everyone. Oh, I want to finish those. I want that achievement. I shouldn't be doing that right now. How much was that one worth? That's my third. 60, alright. Oh, bad transfer. Oh no, oh no no. Oh well, that's fine. I'm still going. We're just going for a big mode now. I'm not gonna... I'm not pushing for other things. Do the songs loop or do they end? They loop after a while. Operation Mega Cat. We will see. Do I have a weapon? I'll get a weapon when I... Because I've done my combos. Oh, I didn't catch the combos though. How can I tell if I have a weapon? and try and pump my Bastille Day when it starts by looping the ramp. Ah, okay. It's somewhere in there. I missed it, didn't I? So it would tell me if I had a weapon, right? if you don't have a weapon it won't say yeah okay so i don't have a weapon a weapon available subdivision uh all right so let's uh get some more combos Actually, I should probably change the mode just to make sure that I don't accidentally start working them. Right. Right. Then I have to hit this one more time. One more time. Because it goes in clockwise order, right? How long does this five-year mission take? Oh, what? 30, 40 minutes? I want to do La Via with the massive values. That's what I'm trying for. A working man's fine. I don't want to accidentally hit the time machine. You got one. You got two The lights at the flipper So what's the lights at the flipper? Thunderstorm Three Hey Alex, the time machine is ready Yeah, that one's a kill me too. So I think now if I shoot the right ramp right now, that's when it would divert. Hold on now. Multiplier advanced. Oh, boy. Oh, no. No, no. Woo. Almost got the time machine. Ball in my eye. I'm on one. So, it don't happen yet. Okay. Does the scope work in this game? There's two ejects. Yeah, yeah. There's a go out the right unless you have a ball locked in then it'll always come out the bottom 9 10 This is the ramp now That didn't register my loop. That's rare on this one. I just expect it to register all the time now. I got to end that combo. Rio combo! Hemispheres, is that the album that it's on? I could take it if I wanted to. You got one. I forget I don't have a ball lock, so it's doing that. Double combo! Ah. Multiplier increase. No, not the... Okay, good. I forget when the combo has a third shot on that. Oh, there we go, here we go. Okay. Get them all and go for the super jackpot. How many did I miss? I actually don't know the pattern, so I have to follow the lights. I have not memorized it yet. Okay. That went right. Okay. I want the ball. I want the ball. Oh, it's locked. That's not going to kill my combo, is it? Oh, fuck. 500,000 600,000 700,000 Is that it? That's it 12 billion Where's my achievement? I don't get the achievement for that Did the combo break? Alright, Dalton, there you go But just think if I had the 4x up there like I did That's what I was shooting for Damn Combo didn't break But I didn't get the achievement Oh, there it is, okay never turn back on a monster okay there we go now we can play the game right incidentally I solved the game like we say in Canada beauty eh I don't know why it's the birded over to the right Mega combo super jackpot. Am I done with combos? I don't know where I was. See? That thing wants to kill me. It wants to. I ran, oh I must have switched though. What am I doing? Um, I still need the one over here. Two, three. Okay. Okay. That's all the combos. Okay, now we can restart those. Oops. Alright. Now do it on the pro. The pro just brings the ball back to you. What are you talking about, though? Jeez, I'm just trying to think, my mind is running like, okay how big can I actually make that over time? If I had the 4x, what would that have been? I don't think I wanted that shot. I didn't realize. Oh, no, I did not. I thought I saw something on the screen. I need to stop. I'm replying to emails. I had 3x from all my F4 purple, so it wouldn't have been that much higher. Oh, so it maxes out at F4, regardless if you have... I thought there was an 8x somewhere. Multiplier advanced. In the arcade halls, people hit pinball. I almost let that one go. Jackpot! Okay. What am I doing? What am I doing? The flipper on the ball. 4X is mad. Timeless old times. The rest of the team are you. Go behind that flipper. Up there. Jackpot! Okay, do I want to use my weapon? Do I? Come on, now I do. Oh, now it's gone. Because I finished it. Nice. Nice. My multivolts are pretty bad. I'm gonna get the warning about that. Oh no! They're saying they have six rainbows at 5x apiece, really? Shoot it again! Oh, but you don't want to make the game too easy. Alright, so all my combos are done, so now I can get them again. That's my next goal, is to get over... I want to get over a billion on that. I'd like more, but... Prize line? 1.2 billion base. What's a 1.2 billion base? Oh, the bonus. I wasn't even paying attention. How do you get the multiplier? What adds a bonus multiplier? I wasn't even paying attention to the bonus. I was trying to move the game. Spinners, light upper loop, white blink. White Blinky, always the White Blinky, huh? Spin the light and click the number. Oh, it's a lot of spinners though, right? Obviously. Alright, so the question is what to do now. What am I doing? That's apart from flailing away right now. Should I just freeze through the modes or should I actually try to... I mean, I don't have a mode right now. Having a rainbow on the spinner speed. Oh, nice. Hello, welcome. How are you doing? Yeah, sickness and bonus X. Well, that's why I'm trying to... That's why I'm trying to... How many, you know, spinners do I need to light that? So, put Spinner... Put Rainbow on Spinner when I get it. When did we get the bunny? Like a month or so ago, maybe? No, less than that. I mean, more than that. Yeah, because we fostered him for a while, and then we adopted him. Never thought I'd have a bunny in the bed. You get rainbows and get... What does it mean? Yeah, you have to collect all the years. Exactly. All the years. Failed foster. Yep. Exactly. We're thrilled with them. He was in Foster for a year and a half. Kind of crazy. Triple Rainbow Book 2 could be like, where would I put the rainbows? I did not put a fan yet. I didn't. I didn't. Ready to take the jump. So I should put this on the spinner. Not grain. the spinner. Stop it. I still want to get more combos. I love combos. Alright, so now I can play the mode with the most combos. It's worth anything. Dead end will be useful. Okay, so I do that. So if I can get past Spirit of Raiders, I can get past that, right? Should I just go for it now and not worry about building modes anymore. My favorite flavor of combos. I don't know. I just want to get them on this game. Do you mean just in general? I mean anything that flows. I love having to go to high number combos. Combos! Oh my gosh, the food. I don't see them around here. That's why I didn't even think of that. I'm just dense. That's nice. No building. No building, says Z-Man. No building? Really? Just go for it? Okay. Alright, alright, alright. I still need to get my... If I want 21-12, I need to get Duel and Voltron. for combo jackpot. It's such a low value though. It's 100% rush, eh? Without those pesky commercials. Alright, so the idea is just finish this mode. Don't die on it. Finish it. Right? We'll be right back with Alex and Gizmo. Finish the mode. Have my 3x combo. Get that. get that play the next mode try and just finish it out and get to a cygnus right with the rainbow on the dead end radio jackpot three and see what the value is there and you'll hit number one is that the plan would it be more advantageous to have this like hit with lightning but that might make it a little more difficult yeah yeah he's really tough very active. Is this a keeper? For now, it is a keeper. I'm having a lot of fun with the building. I mean, I've just scratched the surface with building these values right now. Easy. Alright. Oh, I shouldn't have skipped that. Alright. Sling town. It happens That fair That good We can get back We can at least get get something out of here. What? Okay. That was a weird one. This is how the game ends, huh? Just some random drains like that? Oh! What? What? Oh my goodness. Now I'm in death mode. It's amazing how those other balls were so long and these just went like poof, gone. Ugh. Alright, so now I'm in the no-build phase. Just play. Sure. Alright, where are my records? I need one more. Close this extra ball? I don't know. I've gotten them all, haven't I? It feels like I got enough. Okay. We're going to put that rainbow on the dead end, right? It could dead end spinner out of one, right? And we're going back to Spirit of Radio. Cash this out as fast as I can. Right. Oh, I should have done the diverter. Trio combo! I can cash out right now. Yeah, right. Ah! No! Look at that. Alright. Okay. That was that. Alright. I'm all nervous. Damn it. I need four records. Four records. That's two! Upper. Upper ramp. To the ramp. I also have an outlane save. I gotta remember about that. Because I like to forget about that in this game. Alright, right orbit. Okay, take the mode. Mine turns with the time machine multiple, but how far am I from multiple? I haven't paid attention. Basically, I just need to get through four shots on this, right? And then I can... How many more shots for multiball? Seven more hits. No, I don't want to do that. I'm not doing that. So that shot, then I'll have two shots, then I can use the weapon that I don't have, right? Yeah, I don't have the weapon. Never mind. I was thinking I could take the easy way out. I do need just the two long... I hit the targets for that though. Ah, it's dangerous. I feel like I have a better chance of surviving each shot. pictures is right ramp spinner side right ramp spinner side right ramp spinner side got it right right that's not the right ramp oh well that was lucky I lucked into that multiball I did not see that one Ready. Alright, where are my shots? I'm sorry. There. Not bad. I thought this number was called Alright, where should my Where should my rainbow go? Yeah, the calls are very Dracula Absolutely Alright, what's the best spot for this? Anywhere It doesn't matter because I already have the two important ones Is that it? upper, whatever's easy to shoot. The upper loop, is that not a good one to have it on? Spinner, I've already got it on the spinner and the dead end. I'm thinking the side loop, right? Because I can loop that during the multiple, right? Right ramp, right ramp, right ramp. If Ray Day says right ramp, I'll just program it. All right. Now I really want to focus on the spinner, right? Can I build my multiplier right now? Yeah, I see the white blinky arrow as the adult says. Nice. Yeah. Woo! Oh ho ho ho! That was game. Why blink? Why blink? Why? Oh, my gosh. Why am I missing it now? all right let's try this way no no not that way oh suck suck oh all right all right let's do this alex set guitar torpedo to destroy the right button moves your shot now shoot your shot hot shot this is gonna be stupid no white blinkies yeah i know i can get it later in theory so but the shot's gonna be a billion wait 10 percent loop and dead end loop shoot your shot hot check so rainbow out yeah I'll try to shoot the rainbows right get rainbows no matter what jackpot not a rainbow not a rainbow damn you another button okay I'm gonna do this because my timing will just be better wait see this is where I don't know the rules and I'm gonna mess this all up y'all are gonna laugh at me What am I doing? Dead end over and over. Dead end. Dead end. Okay. Like I said, I don't know what I'm doing. What am I doing? Left button moves on lit shots. Ah. Everything is flipped. Reverse. Reverse. But now I can't move him, right? I still need this. And I'm right ramped for the other ramp. Jackpot! The only battle here is between me and the ball. Holy Olympus, it's a toggle now? They're reversing. I lost 4 billion. I don't know what I'm doing. I don't know. That's what I'm saying. I don't know the mode still. so oh my gosh freaking okay i gotta chimp flip this i'm hitting i'm trying i'm trying to hit the rainbows i'm honest i just suck at this okay Oh stupid reverse damn it now they're reversed Excuse me. The fast buttons. Yeah, now it's reversed. Yeah, I see that. Dead end? Dead end. Okay. What was that? Five bill. Jesus. Stupid. Above time, so. I can try to. I feel like I should have put the other one on the upper ramp, to be honest. Oh, my gosh. On the upper loop, I mean. I think I would have hit it there. That ramp, I'm not going to hit. Oh, my gosh. Just go in this. How much time do I have? I have time. Oh my god. This is painful, isn't it? Oh gosh. I gotta just hit shot now, because I'm gonna run out of time. It's gonna give me that time. Oh my goodness, just give me the ball Pay it over I lost tens of billions there Didn't I? I did Alright What am I doing now? I need to... Hang on a second. It was painful. It was painful to play, too. I didn't get my brain to look like that one. Um. But what am I trying for now? I need to get the Cygnus X1, right? Um. What haven't I played yet? I need a Mowdrey, Tom Sawyer. I need someone to hit the ball. Last time machine, but which time machine didn't I play? The bunny! Fly by night. I need to play fly by night. Got it. Got it. Got it. Stone? Hold the bottle down, seven less hits. That means this should be... No, it's not going to be ready yet. I have seven hits remaining. Oh my gosh. No. Hey, what's up? I swear, what's up? How many more hits? Three. Do I just take the shots? I guess I take the pot shots at it, don't I? And hope I survive. Wait. Nope. Nope. Double shot by the in lane. Yeah, but that's the left in lane. That's just a side ramp. Okay. Bye, Bill, I think. Borked out. Oh, okay. Enter your initials. An hour and 14. Oh, no. Money in. Where'd he go? Let me see if I can find him. Oh, he's not hiding. He's eating hay inside there. Can't see him. Can't look well. He's right... You just can't see him. He's there. And a match. Nice going. You matched. Alright. Getting there. getting there. Okay, what's... I mean, not just getting there. That was something else. Oh, boy. What other achievements do I need? I'm going to look those up right now. Just to see. The pattern for Hemisphere, go left flipper, only right flipper, only reverse flipper, inverted. Yeah, yeah, but it's not that I don't follow that. It's that I just suck at all the flipper tricks.
