Who needs food? Who needs fuel for the rest of the day when you're just sitting on your butt trying to get work done? So, Mr. Kennedy, yes, lunch pinball, exactly. So, drinking, actually about to crack a Mountain Dew, not a beer. There we go. And let's see if we can do some speedruns. Pink Ninja Man, welcome. Aw, crap. I don't have the sound thing on.

I've got roughly 45 minutes. I've got a 1 o'clock I've got to jump into. So here we go. Oh, wait a second. I think I need to hold... There we go. Speed run is you gotta hold both flippers. There we go. Challenge. Let's do this. Hopefully video and audio is coming through well. We're good. Someone from Tennessee is calling. Probably not reels. Alright. Alright, so our timer has not started, and okay, we're good. We've got a rescue on the O shot and the center, which means I'm not going to shoot for the O. We're going to have to move the truck. We want to keep the truck to the left. There's one. Alright, we're fine. I'll take that ball save. There we go. Right ramp. Now we need to find an escape. Let's try middle. We're good. Up and over. And left ramp. Missed it by that much. Try that again. Got to find that left ramp shot. There it is. All right, we're at 42 seconds on the first one. Right ramp. I'll take the ball safe. All right, we moved it again. Right ramp. Here we go. We've got to find an escape. Left ramp. All right. 119, two done. We're continuing on. Looks like we've got center. Missed it. Uh, we gotta hit the helipad over here. Last rescue is on the tower. Got it. Oh no! Oh! Uh, right ramp. Still not the appropriate way to escape. Ugh. There we go Alright, third one done at 216. How often... I try to clean them once a month. Alright. Left ramp... Oh, wow. Left ramp. Center shot. missed it usually do uh all right ready guys and oh i missed it all right now we're just flailing i feel like all right now center shot by the way Vaughn Pinball coming in with that raid.

There it is. center not it right ramp not the chaos shot ah what are the chances and lost our first one but we did stop the timer colorado pinball players sticking together by staying apart I love it and all right so we gotta move the truck and we have to hit one more red shot we're at four minutes nope Still not it! So we can't... Oh, no, we can hit that! Darn it! There we go. We're at the last one. We just have to hit the helipad. Oh, get up there. Here we go. Not good. I mean, I would happily take it for free, really. Thank you. What was that? 5.30? That was awful. and let's see now in color yes neil we got the camera back and we got the so replace the cable also have a wonderful new microphone yeah 5 43 do we got time for oh yeah it's only 12 20 right that only took five minutes and 43 seconds okay first one you know we dialed in some of the shots uh we can step it up yeah yeah yeah thank you i'm good i'm good thank you hold both flipper buttons at some point gets you this menu we're gonna choose challenge once again our right now our best is 3 36 and i want to i want to try and get under the three minutes before uh march 31st i think we're supposed to submit our best times before the 31st to stern uh and it. It's cool. Didn't need that. There we go. So we do need the O-Shot. O-Shot's not cool. Not to be confused with OSHA, the OSHOT, sorry. So we switched the shot needed, and now we're back to being pointed in the right direction. Up and over. And missed that shot. There we go. What is that, 40 seconds? And I believe we need to be facing, yeah, we need to be facing the right. Have to hit this left ramp. There we go. The O-Shot, which I'm not even going to try. Now we have moved the rescue over to helipad. We've got to move the Nauti-Jeep back over to the right. And lost a ball. That's fine. It's going to stop the timer. And we can kind of cheat a little bit if we can soft plunge down. Nope, it hit a, it hit a, what's it called, a sling, so it started the timer, but we are facing the right direction. Oh Oh my gosh. I will take that. Left ramp. There we go. Next up. Looks like we got center. Maybe right. There, yeah. Up and over. One, two, three. Oh, come on. That was not good. There it is. There it is. So now we have to find a way out. Let's try the right ramp. Was not that. Center shot again. Wow. I'll take the escape. That's a quick way to get right to the left ramp. We were facing the right. We're at 223. I think we've got two more to go. Another O-shot. Going to go up and over. And the C-shot. That's going right down the middle. That's going to stop the timer on our third ball. Darn it. Really didn't want to do that. There we go. Take the ball save. And now we need to hit the helipad. Now we need to find our way out. I'm going to try center again. That was not it. Left ramp We're running low on fuel! Shoot the raptor pen! Oh my gosh! No! Ruining a decent score! Get us out of here! Thank you! Wow! All right, so one more and then a final hit. Looks like it's center, tower, and then right ramp. Oh, my God. And it got changed to the O of all things. Now we need the right ramp. Huh. Huh. Apparently my wife just set off the fire alarm. That's great. There we go. Right ramp. Up and over. That was not it. Let's try... Oh, no. Oh! Oh! Show her the O-shot. That was frustrating. I'm assuming a couple shots away. That was a lot of unluckiness, I feel. No, actually, that was just a lot of me missing the left ramp. And 1226. I think we got time for one more. It's going to be a really short one today. By the way, if you guys are in here, Von Pinball rated us earlier. If you guys have not checked out Von Pinball, another Colorado streamer, high-quality content creator, definitely give them a check out. LaserLos is also on the stream, another wonderful streamer. If you guys haven't given either Von Pinball or LaserLos a follow, you definitely should do so. All right, cool. The timer did not start. Now we've got the ball on a flipper, and we've got the O in the center shot, so we can take our first shot at the... There. Hit the truck. Missed the truck by that much. that's still a ball save. I will take that. Didn't work. Still. That did. So we do need the helipad shot. Oh, get there. We're running low on fuel. Use the Raptor Pen. We're running low on fuel. Wow. There it is. Now I hit the O-shot. Get over there. There we go. We found it. Woo! All right, first paddock at a 126. And I went the wrong direction? Eh, that's not even worth playing then. Hold on. Quick reset. Got to keep an eye on the direction of the truck. I thought I was pointed the right direction. But it's really not even worth playing. If you're going for speed, that is. If you're going for points, it's fine. Just a simple thing. All right. So once again, timer has not started. We've got the ball in our right flipper, and we want to keep the Nautilus pointed to the left. All right, now, here we go, right ramp. I would also have taken the O shot. We still need your help. Trying to hit the not a jeep right now in order to spin the rescue. There we go. Another ball save. We're going to have to hit this again. Got to hit this right ramp. Okay. ah no nope lost the ball we're on our first one here i mean i guess i could take us now i'm not gonna try All right, right ramp. There it is. Got a ball save. And I will take it. We're going to go center. And we were facing the right direction. We wanted to keep it to the left. That was 123 on the first one. Ball save. Got to hit this left ramp. Center shot to tower. Oh. Center to tower. Nope. Center to tower Don't fall back That's just a waste of time right here There it is Center It wasn't in there Hit the chaos Nope, chaos is not it And we've got a follower That was it Need to shoot the left ramp We do have the Nautilus point at the right direction. And that was, it just says follow. Left ramp here. Center shot. To tower. Up and over. And C. Oh, come on. There we go. There's the C. Center shot. Left ramp. All right, we're up and over. 259. This is salvageable, kind of. Get up there. Get up there. Let's hit the helipad while we can. It's just wasting time right now. Here we go right ramp move the truck that did not work and we're gonna lose a ball lead sandman i know right daytime that never happens and... Nope. But keep going all the way around. Alright, alright. There's no reason to freak out here, game. Get up there. One more try. There it is. Nope. Last ball, I think. Was that third? No! Okay. And, wow, it's only 12.35.

Daytime pinball streams are always welcome. Right. I I assume there was other people who needed who are working from home. If you're in Colorado, you and you it sucks if you work in a in any kind of a like restaurant or bar capacity, because I think they've all been shut down in Colorado for 30 days. And I mean, yeah, that maybe happened. Well, that's that's pretty decent. Yes! It's fine. It's all good. Up and around. Tower! Tower! Alright, let's do tower again. That. Not at all what I wanted to do. Finally hit the freaking tower. but now I switch the direction of the Nadegeep. We're going to have to remember to move that back. Wow. What did somebody say that was? That's walking the plank? There we go. We have to remember to move the Nata Jeep. We'll hit it here on the way down. Oh, no! That did not work. That did. Left. Ramp, which did not work. Up and over. And left ramp. First paddock done at 125. We must do better. Attempting the O-shot. Not even worth it. Ha! Finish moving that. Oh, wow. The Nata Jeep is stuck in a really interesting place. Alright, and right ramp. And, of course, I hit the stupid Nata Jeep again. Eh, whatever. TurboGrafx, welcome to the stream. Good to see you, man. It's been a while. Right ramp. Hit the truck. And now center. See if we can escape. We did. That is wonderful. We're wasting a lot of time right now. Let's see if we can hit the tower. Up and over. And left ramp. All right, cool. All right, center. Wow, that was the earliest center shot I've ever attempted. I guess let's go there. We need that left ramp. Wow. Let's try the post-transfer again. Come on. There we go. Left ramp. Move the truck. Miss the truck is what I meant to say, obviously. Who actually wants to hit the truck? Jeez. And there we go. Right ramp. Lost another truck.
