## Analysis

Don't Panic Flip streams gameplay of Jurassic Park Pro (Stern), focusing on mode strategy, multiball sequences, and tournament preparation. The host discusses game mechanics (Raptor paddock, Chaos multiball, T-Rex encounter), shares personal anecdotes about local tournament play and beer preferences, and engages with chat. Technical difficulties with audio occur early in the stream.

### Key Claims

- [HIGH] Don't Panic Flip won the Jurassic Park launch tournament and earned 10.5 WPPR points — _Host states directly: 'I picked up ten and a half WPPR on the, uh, on the Jurassic Park launch tournament' and 'It is the same machine that I actually won the Jurassic Park launch tournament on.'_
- [HIGH] The host placed second in an 8-week pinball league at Pinball Jones with 29 players and is playing in the final tournament the next day — _Host states: 'We had 29 people, I think. I got second in the league through eight weeks, and then we have our final tournament tomorrow.'_
- [HIGH] Raptor multiball requires hitting two raptors instead of one, with specific shot sequence: helipad, capture, set trap, helipad, second capture — _Host explains: 'Raptors are unique because you actually have to capture two of them as opposed to one. So you have to hit the helipad, then perform the capture, then go back to the helipad, or it might actually go back to set trap, then helipad, and capture a second one.'_
- [MEDIUM] Completing the Raptor perk (upper right) grants 2x on all Raptor jackpots, which can stack with 6-ball Raptor multiball for potentially 24x playfield multiplier on jackpots — _Host theorizes: 'the perk, if you can complete it, is 2x on all Raptor jackpots... that again with your 2x playfield multiplier over here, and you are looking at 24x on each jackpot. Now, I don't know if all of that stacks.'_
- [MEDIUM] Keith Elwin designed the red target mechanic in T-Rex multiball as a 'second level of multiball for the better players' — _Host references: 'Keith Elwin said he made it because he wanted a second level of multiball for the better players to try during T-Rex multiball.'_
- [HIGH] The Pinball Jones location lineup includes approximately 30 machines: Jurassic Park, Dungeons & Dragons, Deadpool, Batman 66, X-Men, Total Nuclear Annihilation, and Harlem Globetrotters — _Host lists: 'we have, I don't know, probably about 30 machines... We've got Jurassic Park, Dungeons & Dragons, Deadpool, Batman 66, X-Men... Total Nuclear Annihilation and Harlem Globetrotters.'_
- [MEDIUM] A chat member reported scoring 8.5 billion on Ghostbusters with modified rules (extra ball every 300M, slingshot disabled, center post mod) — _Host references chat: 'That's an amazing score at the end of the Larry Day... You destroyed it... even though you said it was set up very easily.'_
- [HIGH] Shiner's Holiday Cheer beer has a unique flavor profile that the host and his wife look forward to annually — _Host states: 'It's called Shiner Holiday Cheer, and it is amazing. Such a unique flavor profile. It is awesome. My wife and I get excited about it every year when it comes out.'_

## Transcript

 Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. We'll be right back. you you Uh, let's see here. Uh, okay, I think now we maybe have sound. It would help if it was plugged in. Apparently the USB cable fell out the back. We're gonna turn down the sound. It looks like I'm hitting reds pretty often here. Let's just pull this down. They bit the audio connectors. Man, like, I let it go for one second. Just trust that one piece of equipment maintained connection. And, yeah, hopefully everybody can hear me now, right? I'm not too quiet, not too loud. Woo, silent stream. Let's play Mad Liz by watching his mouth moving. Dino's already causing chaos. Is he giving us the finger? No, MPT3K, your PC was not broken. Hopefully, can you all hear me? Yes, you can. Okay, I did get it. I mean, it looks like there should be sound. As you get older, it's harder to maintain connection, right? Yeah, that's the OK Boomer meme craze right now. It's the older generation's inability to maintain cultural awareness, I guess. Anyway, I love that phrase. Tonight, by the way, Shinerbach is an interesting company. I'm not actually a fan of many of their beers, but they put out a holiday beer, and it's called Scheinerbach Holiday Cheer, and it is amazing. Such a unique flavor profile. It is awesome. My wife and I get excited about it every year when it comes out, and just absolutely adore it. It was funny because Skipnatty the other day had mentioned being really excited because he was waiting for Holiday Cheer to come out. And I'm just happy there's someone else out there who knows what I'm talking about because this is an awesome beer. All right. Shinerbock makes me sad. Doesn't matter what type. I am sorry to hear that, Dice. I honestly hope nobody ever gets that. That would be amazing. if no one ever, anywhere, ever got sad. But, without further ado, especially knowing that a beer, a specific beer does it, does it make you sad because you're not happy with the flavor? Or is it just some, like, chemical reaction which ultimately leads to depression? Now I'm curious. And we're playing Jurassic Park tonight. It's funny because I think I started off last stream saying everybody and their mother was streaming Jurassic Park. Exclamation point riff. That's not going to work, mpc3k, although I'm excited to see what your stream looks like with the riff option. The flavor and the consistency seems oddly watery to me. Okay, cool. That is exactly how I would describe Shinerbock. Like, I have never enjoyed a Shinerbock, but if you get the opportunity, pick up Holiday Cheer. I feel like this show is brought to you by Shinerbock, and their Holiday Cheer... Nope, that is as far as you can go without creating a reflection on the glass. Anyway, if you get the chance, give it a try. Very different flavor. And, oh wait, that only works on my stream, right? Yeah, that's MPT3K pushing the boundaries of what Roboctopus can do. Also, we are back on shuffle this evening for music. I'm going to turn that up really quick. And I find holiday cheer in the Vanilla Spice Jagermeister. Dude, I played JP today and made it to the fourth paddock all the way along the right path. Okay, the fourth paddock would be Raptors, and Raptors are unique because you actually have to capture two of them as opposed to one. So you have to hit the helipad, then perform the capture, then go back to the helipad, or it might actually go back to set trap, then helipad, and capture a second one. It's way harder. Now, the bonus being the perk, which is the upper right-hand side here, the perk, if you can complete it, is 2x on all Raptor jackpots. Now, bring that into a Raptor multiball where you actually hit both ramps and spell chaos, getting into your 6-ball, which gives you a playfield multiplier equal to the number of balls, I think, in the playfield during that multiball, and combo that again with your 2x playfield multiplier over here, and you are looking at 24x on each jackpot. Now, I don't know if all of that stacks. This is all just conceptual, I guess, at this point, because I haven't made that happen yet. But that seems like it would be a really good one to attempt. And I couldn't get the first one. Narwhal, walk in the club like, hey! I do love dabbing Narwhal. Also, fun one, my wife and I, my wife loves the dabbing Narwhal. And the artist who did it, by the way, I don't know if I've shouted her out enough or at all, but OVOWLS, O-V-O-W-L-S, amazing artist. She streams on Twitch. If you guys haven't checked her out or MPT3K, who is on here, LordHowardHertz, welcome to the stream. Give those guys all follows. But OVOWLS, O-V-O-W-L-S, amazing artist. And my wife said, you know, you should do more. And I'm not against that. So we came up with two more, and I got in her queue today to do two more emotes. And because somebody wanted to guess the last time, we're going to do it again. If you can guess both the character and the action they're performing, and I got to say, this is just that, if not even more random, you will win a Translate. and that said we're at I think 495 followers 5 more followers and we're doing the Jurassic Park giveaway on a Translate so there's a couple of Translates to be won we're looking at about 2 weeks on the 2 emotes, maybe 3 weeks before they're ready so feel free to throw out guesses and if you win you get a Pirates of the Caribbean JJP Translate and we'll keep doing that again I don't think anybody's gonna get it. These are pretty dang random, uh, and I'm not, because there's two of them this time. I feel like I'm going to give away hints, uh, much, much less often. I was doing a hint every stream. We'll see how that goes. We'll see how much we drink and how nice we want to be. Alright, Bob Barker, growing to 50 feet tall and terrorizing a small- Lord, how on earth? That is amazing! No. Also, I'm going to throw it out there, Outer Spacey Tracy's recommendation of a hot dog eating a hot dog, not it. There you go, that's the hint. Even though I really wanted to do the hot dog eating a hot dog, that's not it. And a giant robotic Donkey Kong Jesus riding a puff of smoke, it's not that either. All right, first hint. We're doing it. I've already had enough alcohol. It is not religious in nature. Guaranteed. Nothing religious. All right, let's get our first game underway. And what's our goal? I think the first goal is going to be to crack a billion. And honestly, I think the best way to do that is just to hit Raptor Jackpot over and over again. Bob Barker dabbing while jumping the shark. So, it's Atheist in Nature. Got it. It's just not religiously affiliated or related. Ball save. Great start. All right, nice and easy here. This is going to be really boring. Like, I don't think it's going to be fun to play this way, which is why I feel like I only really do this when I'm in a tournament. You know what, but we will grab the mode and the H. Oh, wow. All right, we need to dial this shot in. Nope, now we're going to take a stab there. And now we're going to go left ramp. Let's find where that shot is today. I feel like that shot moves around the flipper all the time. Well, that rules out the flying spaghetti line. I was disappointed the day that that did not make it as an approved religion in the United States. Awesome. Started a multiball. Good, good, good. Super fun. Let's go right ramp. All right, now we're ready to grab... That right there. So that was our first dinosaur crab. Now we're going to start a control room mode. We're doing everything that we said we weren't going to do. We were just going to focus on the multiball. But instead, we're starting everything. Modes, we're almost done with chaos at this point. Alright. I guess, do we go for... Oh, that was... That was awesome. Alright, let's backhand that. Wow, we didn't get it. Still didn't get it. It looks like we need one more. Still didn't like it. Awesome. Really progressing towards our Raptor multiball at this point Let's see here Saved by the grace of his noodley appendages This is rapidly becoming one of my better tournament games LordHowardHurts, this is With the exception of false lip out No Yeah, false lip out When I could not get anything going on the qualifier for this This, I think, is my tournament game And do you ever go for the red targets during T-Rex multiball? I don't know what that's about I don't know what the significance of the red targets but I definitely saw it if that makes sense alright come on let's capture this Come on. Alright. Alright. Let's backhand this guy. Boom, right there. What's going on? I'm hitting the hell out of this target. it, it's just not registering? Maybe? I don't think that's the case, because I hear it's down. All right, here we go, ball three. There we go. Okay, we got our capture. And now we have to break down the gates in order to get into the multiball. Here we go. Are you kidding me? Alright, there goes ball three. Great start. Let's see here. I'm a catch and shoot type and that plays, it does. It definitely does. If you're, I mean, I feel like any game, if you're the kind that just keeps going and going, maybe, um, man, if you are like fly by the seat of your pants player on, uh, Houdini, maybe that would be a really, really bad game for you. Uh, otherwise I feel like most games transfer, uh, transfer to, to like stop and play pretty well. Okay, we got our first shot there. Let's go second. Wow, that was super close. Uh, let's see here. Please never mention that game again. We hate that we do. Alright, start T-Rex and Multiball. Notice the red target at the Sea of Chaos. Let the ball on the left flipper drain, and then shoot the red target with the plunge ball. If you hit it, then the A-tramp lights red, that shot moves through chaos, and every jackpot is destroyed. Wow! Pink Ninja Man! Sure is! It's Ray, baby! Welcome to the house and garden bug killer! Hunt bugs down like radar, and kill some of them. Yeah, I'd probably do that. Less than that up. What up, Pink Ninja Man? welcome and I'm still catching up on chat here let me check how progressive that jackpot gets okay and I was thinking about how if I could find a cheap non-working dark knight pin I could fix it and mod it into a darkwing duck pin that would be so exciting I just I just got excited when I saw darkwing duck on Disney plus and I thought to myself I'm like oh my gosh I can re-watch darkwing Duck with my daughter? How cool is that? And Joe Shorts! Welcome to the stream! Joe Shorts! Exclamation point, Joe Shorts. I don't have a Joe Shorts. Oh, Joe Shorts, what is it? I don't remember either. I definitely don't have something just for Joe Shorts. But I feel like I do have something for, like, exclamation point, Pants or Pantsuck. All right, here we go. We're going to be saved here and... Capture! Oh, it didn't hit. Wow. Up the end lane. That's a problem. Nice. Nice color. And shorts. There it is. Wear shorts because pants are stupid. All right. That was ball one. I know that was super boring, but we've got to do it at this point. At least once. All right, here we go. Raptor fence integrity. Integrity. 76. 16. Midheart Outrageous Orange. I like that. I like shorts. They're fun and easy to wear. Comfy and easy to wear. Collecting the jackpots from left to right in sequence will also give you plus one X multiplier on the remaining jackpots. Okay. Bad millennial. No avocado toast for me. Just got back from checking my crockpot. Dinner is looking good. I love crockpot meals. Four percent. There we go. One more. And there we go, ball three. That is supposed to be the super safe thing to do, is just go Raptor. That's just not fun, even though I feel like we could do a better job. We're going to give it one more try. To just go Raptor and try and blow this thing up on... Just on score. That did not hit the back, unfortunately. All right, nice and easy. I think we actually have to hit that back target. There it is. What do we got to hit here? There we go, one more. Saved at that time. We're actually, yeah, that was a true save. Alright, this should be a lock right here. Nope. Try it again. Wow, nothing. Super fun. Wasn't that a song by Blondie Raptor? And, oh, Rapture. Okay. Woohoo, howdy. Digital pinball player, welcome to the stream. There we go. Finally got that lock. Apparently we had to hit it very dirty up in there. Nice and easy. Easy and... Nice and easy. We're getting close. That was not nice and easy. happy. Woo, nice and easy here. Wow, that was really early. Oh, come on. We're not getting any points here. We are really betting it all on just getting into Raptor. And then we've got to hit left ramp, right ramp, and then we can launch already. That didn't count. Come on. There we go. Uno mas. All right. Let's do this. there it is alright, oh we already got the left ramp All right, let's stage the upper right flipper. That's going to be tight. Let's try that again. Right ramp. There it is. All right, now we need to spell chaos. Yep. All right, nice and easy. We got one letter. One letter. All right let go with that C We got the O We got the O. Alright, now we need the A and the X. Missed. Oh, crap. That was it. We were just a couple shots away from all the big points. Well, that wasn't really fun. Let's start our first mode. Joe Schwartz, I did not finish the basement if that was directed at me. We got that A. Set trap. Missed it. Got the set trap. All right. Now we need the O. Now we need the right ramp. That was perfect. That was perfect. Exactly what we wanted to do on our ball too. Using my Logitech as a backup, but it's no rumble. Oh wait, my Xbox gamepad is on the blink. Oh no! That does suck. I hate it when technology doesn't work. One of my least favorite things. Somebody just did MPT3K. Seven months on a four-month streak. That is a, that's a hat drop. Let's go virus attack. Let's see here. Oh. There it is. All right, we got that capture. And... All right, we're ready for a smart missile. Do we go for it? Maybe luck into... some chaos. That would be really cool. Yeah. MPT-3K, you're amazing. Thank you so much for supporting the stream. Got it. All right, we need to get into another mode. Here we go. Next mode. We're in the middle. Let's bring a chaos into this. Get in there. Hit the target. Nope. Alright. We will try Raptor again later. Apparently, Raptor is not working out for us. Color Poop. Joe Shorts, I like it. Unfortunately, Poop does not bring up Brown. Alright. Speaking about that, I have a turn... I was just thinking about Lord Howard Hurd saying he liked this as a tournament game. I am playing in a tournament tomorrow. So, Pinball League at Pinball Jones. We had 29 people, I think. I got second in the league through eight weeks, and then we have our final tournament tomorrow. So, feel pretty good. But that's the crappy thing, is that there's a tournament. Like, I would be really happy with getting second place overall in the league. Here we go, and starting our first mode. We're on the left, so we're going Galamimus. Thank you. Thank you. Second place is the first place it is. If you're not first, you're last, right? And what games are in the league? MPT3K, we have, I don't know, probably about 30 machines. There's quite a few. This game is one of them, though. And that feels pretty good. In fact, it is the same machine that I actually won the Jurassic Park launch tournament on. And how are we going to hit this? So I've got to hit a set trap target. It's kind of hard from the right, so I'm going to do a post-transfer, get it over to the left, and now we should be able to easily hit that. And now we want to hit the middle. Wow, that jumped. Control room ready. All right, control room is ready. Our sea is lit, and we've got a rescue there. That kind of seems like a good idea. You were slaying those Fort Collins Whoppers. It is interesting, only because in Denver, I feel like everything is way tougher. Uh, but yeah, I picked up ten and a half Whoppers on the, uh, on the Jurassic Park launch tournament. And, let's see, Wolfman, Wolfman, welcome to the stream! I even read it, the second place is first loser. Uh, wait, Wolfman is quoting No Fear, right? Dopana Flip, are you going to bring your own tilt-pod to the tourney? And what are Whoppers? Wolfman and competitive pinball. Whoppers are the point... Oh, you even spelled it right. You obviously know what a Whopper is. Oh, no, somebody else may have put Whoppers up there. Anyway, it's the points given to you by the IFPA based on who you played and how many people were in the tournament and how many games were in the tournament. So we got our first letter towards chaos. We're going to get a control room, and we nailed the rescue all in one go. I am not going to... I'm going to go restore power. This is a fun one where you've got to hit the middle. Let's go center. We got a smart missile. You know what? If you get a smart missile, you just go for it. And we're going to go for it, because I want chaos. Got it. And we started chaos immediately, which kind of sucks. We don't have a mode that we're in right now. But whatevs. We can do what we want. So, what we really want to have happen here is we want to hit the pops. Let's see here. Yeah! Let's get some addibles! So you want to get in those pops. The more pops you hit, the more addibles you get. Alright, we're juggling here. Oh, come on, game. All right, we need to get more pops. Gotta have my pops. Oh, I thought that was coming back around, honestly. All right. Let's see here. Nice! Somebody else got the gotta have my pops before I did. I got three Chaos multiballs today. I earned one and two from Smart Missile, and basically wasted time playing them because I wasn't in a mode two or three times. Now, did you actually progress closer to spelling Chaos while you were in Chaos multiball? Here we go. I guess let's go for the C over there. Nope, now we're going helipad. Totally got that helipad. Don't believe it, fake news. Alright. Okay, uh, let's see here, does the IFPA International Flipper, close, IFPA, okay, and guiltless, I suppose, ah, wow, no, I didn't know you could spell chaos while in chaos, yes, that is the goal, every time you hit a certain number of jackpots, it relights the chaos target, and every time you hit that target, you spell a letter of chaos, so you just want to do that over and over, I've gotten to the S multiple times, I have not successfully spelled it yet. Alright, we got an extra ball. All right, game. No reason to get all upset. We're cool here. All right, now we're going to try the thing that MPT3K said. We're going to get into T-Rex and multiball. We're going to let this drain and go immediately for the red target and see what we can do about getting some high scores here. Because we need to hit these in order. Darn it, I missed it. I am not good. All right And And... That was mean. Now we want to hit the center. Got a capture. There we go. And we're ready for an H towards our chaos. Wow, you can backhand it. Now we got the A. Let's see if we can hit that O. Alright. Whew, slowing down a little bit, just taking a second. Alright, cool, we got some fun colors going on in the background. When a vegan eats meat, they lose their superpowers. That right there is from Scott Pilgrim vs. the World. And it's tough. Elwin said he made it because he wanted a second level of multiball for the better players to try during T-Rex multiball. Here we go. Oh! Oh, come on! That shot is so flippin' hard. Oh, my God! That had some spin on it. Whoo! Alright, we are ready for our next mode. We're gonna go ahead and switch that up. No! Quit! Game! You're killing me here! That sucked. Let's try that again. Use the force! You were begone, but now you will be gone. I love that movie, by the way. One of my favorites. Here we go, right direction Alright You were a V-Gon Now you will be gone Let's go, come on, we got this Chaos Here we go, rescue Looks like we're in a battle What do we need here? We need another rescue, it looks like. I think I nudged that one into the out lane. That was awesome. Been a bit since I checked in. What's the lineup? Joe Shorts. We've got Jurassic Park, Dungeons and Dragons, Deadpool, Batman 66, X-Men, which is, by the way, the most pimped out X-Men LE you have ever seen. Total Nuclear Annihilation and Harlem Globetrotters. Gotta work on those, always be working on the nudges, right? Oh, come on. I feel like no one, I mean, there are definitely people who have perfected the nudge, but it seems like for my entire pinball career, I will not be one of those people who perfects nudges. I will always be able to improve upon the nudge. Come on, give me that O. Yep. All right, let's just go right ramp, get the rescue. Let's hit the set trap. Missed it. Missed it. Here we go. Hit the set trap. Save our rescuee. Got it. Oh, no. We need a second. Can we sneak it in? Nope. Grr. Got it, though. Oh. There we go. Now we need to get to the helipad. Oh, it's the O-shot. Of course it is. Oh, come on! Game, what do you want from me? Got it. Woo! Finally hit the O. It drains immediately thereafter. Let's see. I love garlic bread. I could eat it for every meal. You shouldn't, though. Why not? Bread makes you fat. Bread makes you fat. Is this more quotes from Scott Pilgrim? I like Edgar Wright, I think was the writer slash director's name. Alright, here we go. We are at the pterodactyl paddock, and we're ready for chaos, I think. I don't know why chaos isn't lit. It should be lit. All right. I'm not full of it, right? Like, we just spelled chaos. And now the sea is lit, but chaos is not lit up there. I'm not... Anyone... This is the problem. I should be able to go into chaos multiball right now. Come on, let's hit this other rescue. The cheating game. We're going to get there. We're going to get there. but this game just cheated me out of chaos. I don't know what's up with that. It's early. It's early, digital pinball player. We'll get back there easy. Ugh. Better believe I am flipping that and sending it to Stern, because that was crap. I can also assure you none of this crap afterwards is going to make it into the clip, where I can't seem to hit the left ramp. Cheater calling a cheater a cheat. it's like uh ship shipping ship shipping ships that's right set it right the first time come on give me that set trap i missed it big time there but that's fine nice and easy to the left flipper easier set trap Apparently we're working on our raptor. Oh, nice. It opened up to the middle. I'll take it. Control room ready. Nice, we got our control room ready. Takes one to know one. Blame Keith. I will blame Keith Owen. And you couldn't fool me on your fooling and stay with an electrified fooling machine. That, Joe Shorts, I don't know. It's like Joe Shorts complaining about wearing pants. Okay, now that actually made a significant amount of sense. All right, here we go. We've got Gallimimus done, right? Yep, we've got our 2x bounties. Wow. All right, here we go. We're going to try MPT-3K's suggestion. We're going to let this drain and hit the red target and hit all of these in sequence. We're just going to let things drain until we get the perfect opportunity. Drain, drain. I did not get that last one back. That was a little disappointing. It's really funny. But apparently, that's how this game rolls. Uh, so we need one more letter to finish spelling map. I actually missed the flipper button right there. That was wonderful. Exactly. Well, that worked. Excellent idea. We just need to be more accurate. I'm going to do it right here. Nope. I'm going to do it right there. Totally got it. Yep, yep, feeling it now. Let's find that shot. There it is. Found it. It wasn't so much there or there. Not here so much or right here. It's more right about here. You doing, um, nope. You're doing good. You're doing good. We're fine. System boot. System boot. System boot. Here we go. Left ramp. Wow, that's really going to require me to hit one of those shots, huh? Crap, we went to the right. Go, right ramp. Got it. I'll take the smart missile. Das ist ein Bootjahr. Chaos! Nope, apparently not. I think we need to hit stuff on the right. Yep, that was a great post-transfer. Oh my gosh. System boot mode total 38 million. What ball was that? Can we just start a new game? Is that... that was ball two. Okay, cool. We're really close to starting a new game. I mean, we're hitting all the combos! Oh! I don't want to rescue that employee. All right, what do we need? Oh, I see that rescue. We need the O. Let's try that O again. Nope. Nope. Ah. And a rescue. What are we in right now that we need to collect rescues? I don't feel like we're in a mode. Apparently we were. Let's hit a set trap. I don't know. What we're in right now feels a little funky. Helipad, coming up. Now we need to hit that, the Nauti-Jeep in the center. Now let's hit... Oh, no! That's not good. Here we go, left ramp. Well, it's not that you're playing poorly. It's that you're just not very accurate. Here we go, let's go helipad, got it, and left ramp, capture, smart missile into chaos, let's do this, why does don't panic flip have glow ears on his head, what? Alright we missed that Now we going And we timed out our T event That kind of sucks. Let's see if we can get into another mode. What do we need here? I guess let's go for our capture. And... That sucks. I was trying to avoid that. Thank you. All right. That did not work out! Get up there! Give me a bad ball! Oh, no. Ugh. Needed to get up there super quick. Did not work out. I think we got one letter of chaos, though. Uh, I guess let's start working on our chaos again. And now we've got Matt spelled out. We are going to zigzag our way across the playfield. Here we go. And now we're in a mode. Uh, so, I get invited to a Halloween party, and the guy has 12 pristine games. Alright, alright, calm down, calm down, game. We're fine here, we're fine. And, uh, step up to Ghostbusters Pro. We have them, oh wait, wait, uh, set up so easy that I only played three games. I've never been so let down at what should have been an awesome time. LOL. Your mistake was Ghostbusters. I actually really like Ghostbusters. I think that game gets crapped on because it's difficult. But I like that that game gets irritating. In my opinion, it's just not a good game for if you only have one pinball machine. If you only have one pinball machine, I feel like that is most definitely not the game you want. Here we go. Set trap. Got it. Perfect. Perfect nudge. 8.5 billion on Ghostbusters. Wow. Yeah, that was set up pretty easy. Although, I haven't played it since the new rules and really gotten into it. Maybe 8.5 billion is a lot easier. Not at all diminishing what your score was. That's an amazing score at the end of the day. I'm just assuming that you destroyed it. even though you said it was set up very easily. There's that. There's that. Looks like it's right ramp. Yeah! Got that T-Rex encounter. And left rim. Oh, no. Game. We need to hit this left ramp Left ramp, left ramp We got this Left ramp, it up Alright, right ramp That was ball three Of course that was ball three Working our way up And this is all perfect. I need to use this tomorrow. And the table's out the door. Whoa, whoa, whoa. That is not enough balls. Laughing at the glow ears. So that's like celebrating hitting a hole in one, two inches from the table. So Bustin' didn't make you feel good. And Ghostbusters' new code is like putting perfume on a poodle. I don't know, I'm not a dog guy and had it set up so you'd get an extra ball every 300 mil and scolaries were disabled plus the counter the center post mod, wow does it smell better? dog fart fish from wolfman I like it but you're right, yeah, that was set up that was set up a little on the easier side I'll just say that All right, start a mode. And we're off to the right, so we're in the Brachiosaur Park. Here we go, right up the middle. a bat. Perfect-ish. I'll take the escape. Alright, what are we doing here? Grab that rescue and then hit the set trap. Oh, crap. Now we've got a smart missile. I guess let's just go for the smart missile. Got it. Alright, now let's go for that rescue. Up in there. Set trap. And right ramp. Got it. Captured. Don't like this right now. Not good. Obviously intentional. Whew! Let's see if we can pull in a mode before we accidentally initiate chaos. That would be wonderful. Virus attack. Here we go. And... Kind of want to switch the direction of that. All right, we're going to go left ramp. Nice. Now we're going to go right into chaos. The door is wide open. Open. I feel like we're playing smart. Got it. All right, I'm just going to have fun for a minute instead of, like, actually trying to control stuff. I know that's crazy, right? Like, who just has fun playing pinball? But I'm going to enjoy this. All right. So now we want to calm it down a bit. That's perfect, just like that. Yep, obviously intentional. Looks like we've got Chaos Jackpot lit. And this over there. I can't believe I missed that. I'm just working out. Yes, boss! Four, three, two, one. Yes, you may. What do we need to do here? Everybody out of the pool. Alright. all right cool I'll take it how many letters we have one letter right now that is despicable all right Let's see if we can pop. Again. Crap. Got an add-a-ball. We're gonna get a couple of those back. Ugh! Crap. Alright, we gotta get back up there. All right, here we go. Jackpot. Jackpot. Ah, could not get that last add-a-ball. That sucked. Woo! All right, helipad, we're coming for you. All right, come on, helipad. So close. And there goes ball one. That wasn't an awful ball one. Great moves. Quick spell, International Rescue Team. Thunderbirds, go! 1144. We're doing okay. Wow, hitting the heck out of that O now Obviously all intentional Somebody followed Cool, cool, cool, very cool Alright, who was it that just followed Partial Fracture Thank you very much for that follow You're getting us one closer To our follow goal Of 500 As soon as we hit our follow goal. We're doing a Jurassic Park Translight giveaway at the very next screen. Alright. Apparently the helipad is no longer an option. We timed that out. That sucks. So now we're back into map. And there goes ball two. Ball one, great. Ball two, flipping awful. Is anyone good at outlay nudge saves? Because I think this table has issues. Yeah, this table is rough. I'm happy it gives you the escape, the virtual escape. Let's see if we can hit... Helipad! Compy Paddock. Here we go! Rescue! Nope. And we have just snagged that extra ball in time. All right, so ball one was okay. Ball two and three, awful. Ball four is where it's at. Two... Oh! Alright, let's see if we can hit... Right ramp, totally missed it. Little early, let's see if we can hit this guy there. Wow. Game just really didn't like it there at the end. Ugh. I mean, it wasn't... We're not really getting worse. We're just not getting much better, but I think we got this. We're going to do the thing. Oh, why did I just do two players? I don't want two players. Reset. Thank you, game. All right, left ramp. And right ramp. Left ramp for the mode start. We've got it. All right, cool. Give it a second. I want to see what they end up lighting for rescue. Looks like it's center. That works out. That scans. We're fine with that. Let's go center. All right, all we need now is the right ramp. Wow. Whoo! That was mean. Let's see here. I bet T-Rex appreciates a hug more than other dinosaurs because of its tiny arms. I would agree. I would completely agree. All right, we're going to move this a little bit that way. I think we're kind of centered after that for the most part. Wow. All right, here we go. Got it. Uh-oh, that's not good. All right. All right, now we're ready to start our mode. Beautiful. We went to the middle for some reason again. We keep wasting effort. But we can bring in a chaos. Remember, we want to hit the pops. And then we want our Chaos Jackpot. Alright, that was cool. Chaos Jackpot, coming up. Got it. All right, so there's our C. Now we've got to hit those set trap targets. Missed it by that much. Totally worked. Got that set trap target. There we go. Ah, crap. We lost out on the other set trap. And jackpot is... Chaos jackpot is lit again. Got it. Maybe. No, it didn't give it to us. Got an add-a-ball. We're going to get that one back. Let's see if we can hit these set trap targets. We got maybe one. One. Gar. All right. There we go. Left. Ah! That was starting to feel pretty good. That was ball two. I feel like we're learning in this that chaos is a great way to pick up a couple hundred millions. All right, and... Oh, come on, give that to me. Give that to me. And T-Rex Pinball, Copter probably, and hi! Yeah, Chaos or Raptor just generally breed points. Yeah, Raptor, especially with the full six-ball multiball and the plate field multiplier associated with that. Yeah, yeah, I get it. Raptor's captured. I want to skip this. Not cool! Yeah, why is it repeating? Alright, both ramps done. Now we need to get Chaos. Looks like we just need the O and the S. Let's see if we can hit this S. Not cool. Not cool game. Here we go. S. Woo! Woo! Uh. Ball! Come on! That was a little frustrating. I'll... I know, so close. What am I going for right now? We're in the middle. We've got a rescue right there. Lit! Lit extra ball. We just lit a control room. And we got our last rescue, so now we're ready to hit the set trap. Restore power. Set trap. Spitter. Now we need the helipad. Going left ramp to helipad. We're going to go... Helipad. Left ramp, right ramp. Time is running out. Surprise, nothing bad. Alright, we got that, and... Four, three, two, one. Got our escape. Aww. Let's see. Rescue on O for traps. Control room is lit. Helipad after trap. Yeah, the rule set on this is actually... I really like the rule set. But that O shot. Oh. Alright. Which you all knew. The rule set on this is great, though. There are a ton of little things that I'm not super familiar with right now. Like what lights an extra ball? I know it's a whole bunch of really seemingly random milestones throughout the game. Alright, ready to advance the paddock. What do we need here? Looks like the right ramp. Left ramp. Set trap. All the way around. Looks like right ramp. Great. All right, so Gallimimus is done. Let it drift just a hair. Is there any good Colorado brews that deliver to Callie? Wolfman, that is a really good question. I don't know off the top of my head. We have drifted just a little to the left. I feel like we maybe went just a hair... Alright, we're good. We're good. We're fine. We're all fine here. Alright, game. We're cool. All right, ready to start our next mode, but we want to lift the direction. Great, now we're going to beeline it. All right, here we go. Left ramp for the second rescue. And now hit the set trap target. Got the first one. And what do we need here? It looks like we need the helipad, maybe? No, the helipad's not flashing. So I... Here we go left ramp Alright Woo We got the triceratops It looks like we also going to start a T encounter Right ramp. Totally got it. Upper loop. Right ramp. Woo! All right. Center. Here we go, left ramp. We got something. Oh, nice, we just started the next mode. And the left ramp. Totally missed that. Uh, we missed out on the T-Rex encounter, which is fine. Looks like we need one more rescue. I'm going to go for the helipad. Got it. Left ramp. And now go for the set trap. Ah, crap. We got a smart missile. Wait a second. Oh, crap. Got it. And we started chaos. Wow. Awful, awful chaos. Needed to get in those pops a little bit more. Need to go center. Got that capture. Alright, uh, our two, oh wow, we had 2x playfield on that? That sucked. That sucked even worse. Whew, you need to start that delivery business. Delivering Colorado beers out to California. Oh, we went to the right one. Good, good, good. All right, let's get our rescues done quick, because this guy does not mess around. Sorry about that. We are no longer in line. We're going over there. Got it. Got the rescue. Got the C. Hit him. We need to hit the set trap target. Come on. It's a Unix system. You know this. Are we going to do it? What would you say you do here? All right, game. Wow! Trap is set! And I just was not prepared for that shot. But I have people skills! I talk to the customers so the engineers don't have to! Here we go. Helipad. Wow. That was actually too much. Get up there. What do we need to hit? Looks like left Got it Cool Check out that left ramp right now That is lit for King of the Island multiball Again This is awesome T-Rex Spinosaurus, king of the island, multivol! All right, what do we need to hit now? We got 2x playfield scoring. It looks like we have to hit the raptor. Maybe. Here we go. And. And left ramp. Right ramp. Left ramp. All right, and here we go. All right, we got an add-a-ball somehow. Alright, what do we need to hit now? Looks like maybe blue shots? I don't know, nothing is lit. I don't know what to hit right now, game! That sucked! I had no idea what to hit! Uh, pops! Oh, it was pops? Ugh! We did not till! I don't know what ball that was, though. Red arrow? Okay, that was ball two. Sorry, we are way off over here. I'm going to be very gentle. Not then. You had amber pops earlier. Oh, okay. So it wasn't pops that I needed to get to. I need to read the directions, unfortunately, in that mode. What do we need here? Let's go there. There. Pteranodon Pabic. Here we go, right up the middle. Let's go S. Totally missed it. Let's go S. Wow! And a right outling drain. That was quite the Nedry award, though. Ugh. Not an awful score, and we did get to King of the Island multiball. I still feel like there wasn't enough going on to help me out on the lights. I'm not sure if... Maybe it was... I have to go back and watch that. But it looked like only the stand-ups were the only thing blinking, and I feel like they blink all the time, so... I don't know, maybe I had to hit all the stand-ups before I enabled other stuff. But we got time, I think, for one more game. Let's see what we can do here. Really, game? I hit that shot, and it's just not going to give it to me. There we go. Just a few shots. Yeah, there was definitely a point where not much was and then three red arrows came up on the right shot. There's our escape. Uh, right flipper's not looking good. 52 on Fence Integrity. 28. There we go. There we go. And we're in Multiball. We hit the two ramps. Here we go, right ramp. And we've got a ball stuck up in the raptor fence. So I'm not even going to mess with that. Not true, I'll hit it out. I'll hit it out. I don't need Wolfman telling me I'm cheating. Alright, right ramp, let's stage that upper flipper Alright, now we need to hit the chaos target So You know, that's fine I don't even like two balls there Yep. All right, so much for that. Control room ready. Here we go. Oh, come on. And... Start the mode. We got that. Shouldn't have said that. Yeah. Right ramp. There goes ball two. We might get another game out of this, even. Oh, that was ball one. All right. Step trap. Totally missed. I think we're back in game. Looks like we can hit the helipad. Got it. First capture. Let's go for the center shot. Really close on that second center shot there. Went to the center again. Darn it, I wasn't paying attention! Alright, rescue on the house thingy. And we got a smart missile. So let's smart missile it up. 3, 2, 1. Got it. We've got... I think we've got five balls right now. Is that right? Oh, four balls. Now two. That was cool. All right, one more chaos. Nope, we're not going to be able to get that. We've got a rescue there. And we've got control room ready. Let's load the dinosaur down. Ooh, that was rough. You are way more accurate than I am, nailing those smart... It's only the smart missiles right now. If you're paying attention, I seem to only be able to hit a couple of shots. Like, that was a helipad. Helipad! Got it. Dinosaur! Oh, just missed it. Alright, now it's on the inside circle thingy. There. Nope. Missed it! By that much. here we go, and we gotta go back to the helipad, that's awesome, feels great, man ugh here we go, helipad got it Wow. Whew! And another one where we gotta move it just a hair. We're moving the hell out of this table tonight. No, in general, I can brick anything if given the chance. Does make me good at anticipating misses. Exactly. I do like that. brick enough shots and your recovery skills will definitely get better. Oh my gosh. Enough time for another game. Last one. No matter what happens. Last one. Right round. No. All right. Right, up and over. Not cool. And left ramp. For the most part. Honestly, I think that left ramp, which is supposed to be, I think, one of the easier shots in the game is the one I struggle with the most consistently. Here we go, left ramp. Just like that. Nice and easy. Here we go, nice and easy set trap. right ramp, got it. Whew, alright, center, inner loop, totally got that, left ramp, up and over, and back into the left ramp, ah, but we remembered to look at the knotted jeep. Here we go. Not a jeep going back to the right. Nope. Not a jeep going back to the right. There it is. Left. Left ramp. Left ramp! There it is. Wow! It's not going to be a mode start though because that I feel like is a bug in the game. I should have both started the mode and the multivol, but it's not. Wow. Wow. But we started doing that in order. What we wanted to do was hit the red shots across the playfield from left to right, and that was supposed to give us the bonuses. Hit some of the other orange shots first on feed raises the jackpot values. Okay, cool. Can do. Uh-huh. Up and over, left ramp. Left ramp. Man, we're operating at like 25% hit rate on that. We need one more rescue. Got that escape. I'll take it. Nice. We got control room and the C working towards chaos. And we have a good song on. Here we go. Right ramp. Wow. Got a set trap! And now I think we have capture on left ramp. My favorite shot of the game. Somehow we got an extra ball out of that. Uh, what do we need? Oh, I think the control room is done. And we got our extra ball. I mean, that's something. D-lane for the mo- Oh, yeah, for the control room. I want to hit that O. Missed it right there. Got it. Woo, that O is so hard. I kind of love that about this game. I don't love that right there. That sucks. I wonder if I should be focusing on light escape more often. That seems like when it's lit, you should just grab it kind of a thing. Let's go S. Left Tramp. S. Got that O again. That was cool. And we got a rescue over here on the C. Set trap. S. And that escape was lit. I just asked if I could be going for that more often. Timed out. That one alternates between a lit blue arrow in the control room. My least favorite of the control room modes. System boot is my favorite. Yeah, it lights when you go through the top lane into the pops. Okay, good to know. Awesome. Um, you guys, tonight was Jurassic Park. Uh, we had a couple of good games, at least a couple of good games. Uh, whatever, it's Jurassic Park, and it's an amazing time. Thank you so much for hanging out. Uh, y'all have a wonderful night. We'll be back on Thursday, TBD on the, um, on the game we're playing. And, uh, also December 3rd, we've got an on-location stream at EndoPland where we're gonna get to play some, uh, Elvira House of Horrors. They've got, I think, an LE out there. So that should be super fun. That's in, I think, Lafayette, Colorado. Great beer and nothing but, I think, some of the best pens out there available right now. They have such a wonderful arcade room. So we'll be out there on December 3rd, which is a Tuesday night a little bit earlier than normal. Anyway, you guys have a great one and hope to see you Thursday. Thank you. Thank you. you
