## Analysis

Jeff Dodson (Dirty Pool Pinball) streams extended Lord of the Rings pinball gameplay, attempting to reach Valinor and reach 300+ million points. The stream showcases advanced multiball stacking strategies, mode sequencing, and flipper maintenance troubleshooting. Dodson discusses PinSound audio boards and community pinball venues while managing family interruptions and environmental issues (HVAC, streaming quality).

### Key Claims

- [HIGH] Lord of the Rings requires destroying the ring at the end of Valinor wizard mode as a mandatory final step, not optional — _Direct gameplay demonstration and explicit rules explanation during stream_
- [MEDIUM] Reaching 140 million points on Lord of the Rings is likely tournament-winning performance at local level — _Jeff's direct statement: 'if you get 140, you're probably going to win your local tournament'_
- [HIGH] PinSound boards are manufactured by two French brothers — _Jeff's explicit statement during product discussion_
- [HIGH] Jeff has modified a Twilight Zone machine with PinSound audio board for complete soundtrack/sound design replacement — _Jeff: 'I use their system to do my soundtrack and music and full sound design replacement of my Twilight Zone'_

do it bath time all right H but for real thank you for that follow s La I really appreciate it and thank you mlan man I am trying to have [ __ ] amazing streaming quality it's just frustrating man when someone's got a really cool game or something rare and the the stream quality you can barely see it it looks like someone you know it's like it's in the bottom of uh of the Silence of the Lamb's pit you know the GU like puts the pinball on its skin or else it gets the lotion or something you know like I want to be able to cleanly see what we got going on here I feel like you want that too let's do shots let's get three oh I said come on G don't be like that that's three need one more I think we're going to make we're going to get through first attempt on this usually I stack this with Fellowship uh if you're watching the channel a lot there's specific modes that go very well with specific multiballs that help you get through this absolute nightmare uh and get to valanor sooner uh so yeah if you're new and you got questions about what the hell to do here just ask I'm happy to tell you we got to hit a movie butterfly shot now and then we got to go back into orank and that'll give us a piece of pie that's our goal right now so you can see the shots moving now it's at the cave which I just missed right ramp there's a bit of a gratuiti uh whatever generosity here included that's going to do it you'll see the shot had moved but it still gave it to me get in there damn it no don't you dare count me off right now you stupid stupid dwarf get the pops that's it I was delayed he was delayed I was delayed on hitting that shot but we made it happen a GI from hell yeah get of yourself stream is awesome I think it's the best of my favorite comparing with others [ __ ] that song it gives me nightmares man it's bath time you'll learn to you'll you'll learn to embrace it if you don't have bath time stuck in your head well after you've left my stream I'm not doing my job right I want you when you wake up in the morning you think of bath time you go into the bathroom you're thinking bath time you're at work you're thinking bath time maybe you're spending quality time with a loved one you're thinking about the bathtime song cuz it's going to get in your head and you're going to [ __ ] love it I'm heading up at 7 Supra I don't know what that means oh Slappy you're going to have to translate what does that mean tell me what what that means I'm going to stretch real quick Ah that's right forgot the pinball homies see there's a there's a YouTube twitch uh crossover the YouTube homies have a few twitch buddies so they speak in riddles all right let's get more rings to start another to start another mode because that's what we do who else we got here latitude what's up welcome to the stream Wild Bill American Outlaw we got some new names here welcome we're doing the thing let's do ants but we need to get some rings first there's one there's two oh it didn't trigger it that sucks sometimes you can in fact most of the time you can get two rings or three rings by hitting uh one one of those the Gand off shot because as it comes around it triggers the opto I'm sorry not the opto it triggers the micro switch for the right uh orbit and it gives you both and that's better because I would take three rings over not three rings uh all right we do not want to hit the right ramp right now we're bowling and pinball the night dude that sounds awesome can I come all right we're going to hit the center to get another ring now we got mode startl now we're going to start a mode and then hopefully hit the right uh now we have to time out the bow Rog what's up pinball Illuminati what up the pinball lady is here it's Mariah okay let's see if we can trap it give me the ball woo look at that flip that little under flip there the mouse got to time this mode out sorry sorry fellas that's not why did you oh my God this woman she's [ __ ] up my whole [ __ ] my whole stream up right now she closed down the stream manager and managed to close a window while handing me the mouse and then ran away God damn it h I forgot what I was doing oh right I wanted to Mark the stream so I could get that clip later oh my God anyways all right I got one shot we're going to do Ward battle and the reason we're going to do Ward battle is because we're going to try to get into two towers with gollem multiball running and with four balls running if I can't hit every single one of these shots in 30 seconds oh the great pyramid's going to pound my ass and not in a fun way here we go War battle what is it sure all right now we need oh I'll take that but we want the right ramp so let's see if we can post trp it n that's okay we almost got it anyways all right can we backhand it no I said can we forehand it no almost there it is we are in the maximum multiballs with ring we have ring frenzy going War work B going and we are in two Tower multiball with Golem running like this is about as big a stack as you can have going with the exception of maybe running a 2X multiplier those balls are coming back I'm not worried about that now I'm worried about it hopefully that doesn't happen again so we're killing Wars oh my God we got two ex scoring lit too please Lord let's oh no no give me those balls don't be a dick no no [ __ ] get of oh hey that's a great idea I do have uh it does save them all uh it does it does do that what Jackass is playing that damn it gruesome all right we got three shots left to get Ward battle out of the way let's see if we can do it that's one here's the reason I'm not bummed about that one I'm starting a second multiball and that gives me the Jimmy Willies love for Jimmy Willies number two is that's two towers Two Towers is [ __ ] easy if we can't M if we can't Super Jackpot Two Towers in two attempts is not a good run just saying it uh [ __ ] I forget what three shots I need does anybody remember what three shots I need for Ward battle I think it was right I thought it was right ramp give me that ball back be like that okay that's two that was hey we might have just gotten it awesome oh that was air defense right there by the way if you saw that where I waited till the ball was in a spot where I knew I needed to Bonk it cuz it was going down the middle uh and in doing so smashed it out of the way using the other ball that's what air defense is there we go that's another person across oh that was so my fault let's see if we can sneak one in help no no I don't want that come on such a terrible flip hold on one second brother me let me I think we got two x running so I'm going to actually try to play a little bit just to get some Neato points all right we'll start super FR ring fry too uh the pinball place in Pittsburgh that's huge I am not familiar with that one but I don't know a lot of the Midwest stuff it's kind of new to me uh I am a Southern California person so I'm more familiar with the stuff that's in Texas uh you know uh bay area that kind of stuff Arizona talking about like electric bat lens arcade that kind of stuff no 5 4 3 right now I'll take paler how far of a drive is long for you that's something I'm curious about 20 minutes is long in LA because that means it's really a 2hour that it's called pinball PA that's pretty straightforward get in there okay so let's start I think an is probably where we're going to go that's the move next but let's let's get a hold of and assess what we're okay how many miles is far unless you're coming from like Seattle or something in which case that would absolutely be a long trip uh all right we're going to let's do we're going to do ANS or not I said set it's ants time ah it just tickled it tickling the ants I did I it was the left flipper Reuben and uh I will tell you in just a second uh roller coasters was correct on what the issue was uh let's see we wanted on shobs so that we can get ants there it is that's what we want uh so um what was happening was the leaf switch had been pushed in so far on the left flipper that I had if I pressed the button all the way in it was registering as a full flip but if I even a millimeter wa if I even moved it out a millimeter holy [ __ ] hold on no oh yeah if I even moved it a millimeter it would discon it would uh lose power to the flipper of the Ring I have that this is Nathaniel everybody Nathaniel's a lot of the Ring I know that's what it is Rider I love that movie it's a good movie we got it we got that's right all right all he's a fan you help all right ask him and then yes sweetie pause game no I can't what do you mean pause game it's pinball what do you mean pause game you're a monster you're you're worse than these internet trolls oh where'd you go God you're so tiny anyways uh oh my God I all right we are having an actual good run here Mariah oh yeah go got to go come on oh my God don't do that to me [ __ ] what I forget what I need these stupid kids driving me nuts all there we go all right I know I'm flowing I'm flowing I'm flying okay now I'm not flying shut up hobit sick of your [ __ ] I don't think that's going to be enough to get ANS I think we're out of time no well let's destroy the ring then gooded Lord I know that kid is a lot he is punk though man good for him passionate about Howard sh's music and Lord of the Rings you can't can't be mad at that okay that's two down oh no easy saved it please clip that uh yeah so here let me blow this ring up and then we'll talk that's me Hing hoping that I can confidently blow the ring up oh my God give it to me anyways so if if I even let go of the button a fraction of a millimeter I'm talking micro millimeters it was dis it was deenergized in the slipper so I just went in and readjusted the leaf switches I have little tools for that you don't really need them but they look like this there's a bunch of them and they have different little cutouts and angles and you can bend the supporting Leaf switch to uh align it to your your whatever you want and uh you know now that the contact is making good contact it makes the flipper work who would have thought what a novel concept all right uh destroy the ring that's one I wish that was the second shot that would have been so good no that's bad oh that's bad man that one that first shot was so powerful the magnet barely held on to it I thought it was going all the way through okay here we go chat do you think we're going to make it first shot here yes or no what's the votes am I going to am I going to break this or are we going to have a nice exploding game taking a moment to mentally mentally prepare well now everybody's not chatty cuz that kid came in and started screaming all right let's do it here we go oh that was such a good one too [ __ ] all right round two here we go that's definitely not good Hobbit a gift from y you have done very well unfortunately we need to do that after we do everything else so uh not ideal oh my God like good Lord that's loud I forgot to turn that alert sound down yeah well you know [ __ ] happens anyways sweet we did it so as I we got to turn the heat off in fact I don't even know why I have the heat going on what how did you drain I don't know how I drain okay they need to play Kirby I have to go set up Kirby I'll be back I'll be back in 30 seconds the C the we

coming back to this we got 87 mil I'm going to pretend like it's that hand but really it's a different one ha you thought it was that hand uh yes thank you bad mountainer I agree that's why I'm going

watching this exciting uh six-year-old Bonanza that has occurred Kirby is now playing we're good to go my air conditioner is blowing on me so I'm going to stop getting moist pants going on and we're going to we're going to continue to dominate this hopefully we've got three pieces of pie Let's do an update ready Ed Boon yeah R up thank you Miss diggle it's spiral time out my way spiral get out of here go away you're traveling to another dimension go up there go away Dimension not only of Sight and Sound but we have we're on ball one we've destroyed the ring which is not a requirement it's the gate way to valanor you have to end everything with destroying the ring so we're going to have to destroy the ring again that's okay we have three pieces of pie we are pretty far through we got three modes complete so we're halfway to there and back again another requirement and we did pretty good on one of the uh multiballs I forget what the other ones were maybe chat can remind me how far did we get through everything Return of the King not good Two Towers pretty good and I think Fellowship was like mediocre at best okay let's do this that's the plunge I wanted that's the plunge you always want if you're not doing the or than skill shot you're not plunging correctly cuz you want the souls you're going to need Souls constantly I br okay that's the lock we wanted now we're going to plunge and hopefully get some more souls you charge your souls by that's unfortunate you charge the amount of souls that are up there by hitting targets so any of the like flat targets that are available meaning like sh spot ring uh paler oh no uh hitting any of those wow you really you got it out for me I don't know what that was all about okay uh any of those will give you uh added value to the path of the de power I don't care about uhoh we're going to time it out playing smart today fellas time of a big brain moment 3 2 one I'm not worried about collecting the big points ring we're going to get there the GI we're going to get that anyways it's going to happen come on camera people want to see a scoreboard that's in the middle [ __ ] are you doing okay uh let's see what mode do we want to do Let's do let's do ring wraiths cuz we're going to need that Golem multiball anyways oh no boy I cannot I'm just a bricky guy no I'm a bricky guy I guy no ay guy it's a brick house uh excellent song we do have a brick reward which is pretty funny I do appreciate that one it's nice and short anyways I not only go over there to do the replays I do take a minute to sit down because like I said my back is all C jacked up so it acts as a kind of a double win for me it's like a mini hyper break it's like a boxing you know oh God I cannot hit that shot now why did I lose it chat how am I not hitting that ring we were dialed in on it all right shake the bad mojo let's get back in on this all right we need ring rats here we go get out of here we couldn't not we couldn't have any more three rings than we wanted to right now I think we have collected three rings three times plus combo multipliers oh my God slow down nope all right uh yeah shy La this is going to go to rain R God I'm worried man what's up Lardo I'm just the break guy yeah dude be famous famous Beatles bide here we go get up there oh man the of the dead it's about to be despite of my rage it's about to be like more of a Smashing Pumpkins kind of moment with how grumpy I'm going to get which is too bad I'm in a good mood it's ball one we did waste one extra ball don't do that okay bring race there we go [ __ ] finally oh God damn it I been the wrong way Ah that's great so instead of my favorite mode it's the shittiest mode okay that's okay we got control of it we're going to time it out we're good to go we're good to go I'm not worried are you worried I'm not I'm really worried we still got to do all three of the uh super jackpots for the multiballs so in if you think about that needing to happen for us to get to valanor which it does and we will someday uh that's going to fill up our pie we do need a seventh uh gift you think you only need six but no you need seven because because why not because Stern is a big minie I should do the Gary Stern and beat him up mode cuz he deserves it all right left ramp any other combo shot start Mode start Golem multi bball that's the objective here we go left one that's not what I wanted but that's actually good too the combo shot would have given us three but that's okay because now we're going to have two balls yeah I know right that's we're in it to win it right now my dude there we go ah not the right one I would say that stops the timer but we don't have any timer going right now normally the pops are the excellent way if you need to stall timers for modes you just send one ball up into the pots and that's how to do it okay that's three please okay there we bad okay we got a modlet we need a multiball going now that's not the lock that I want I'll take these guys that's good little little rattle to get that out of there would have loved to be in there okay that's unfortunate but that has the second lock we'll take it that's more souls speaking of Smashing Pumpkins have you seen Billy cor's new podcast actually pretty great no I haven't but I did see his interview with Bill Burr man talk about like rock rocker drama did you guys hear that let's speaking of wild and crazy speaking of wild and crazy uh internet stuff yeah it looks like Bill Burr and Billy Coran are related how Wild is that like this is not a joke it's just weird Mike and super sent the link to the P Place ago oh [ __ ] well [ __ ] man I've been streaming so much post me that link again or whisper it to me please I would love to check it out or I guess I Google it it's just hard for me to remember everything that goes on on stream I'm sure you can understand or maybe you can't which case whatever get up there damn it uhoh okay that's two we need left ramp right ramp [ __ ] give my glove back game let two we need left ramp right [ __ ] give my glove back that was extremely unfortunate cuz that would have like started the multiball and completed a piece of pie I'm not happy about that all right here's the good news we still have one mode left and we have two multiballs available to us so oh okay that we're safe there for a second I was like panicking that was a bad shot the one time you don't want to go to orank all right we need to go up the middle the one time I absolutely nail that shot good Lord okay now we need to start any multiball mode so let's try to R right ramp it now hurry I said let's try to right ramp it now and now we need to hit all of the shots we need a Super Jackpot here and we need to get all of okay now we need to hit any shot on the right could be that one that's good now we need to hit left ramp or left orbit and I need to remember which one okay that's that's left orbit okay now I need to hit uh right ramp or right orbit okay now I need to hit you don't do that now we need to hit left ramp [ __ ] no give me that paler oh no we don't have paler l oh no oh quick damn it okay and then we need to hit right orbit whatever we're still going to get a piece of pie out of it what's up cnk my dude welcome oh hurry oh how about that shats please clip that okay that's one more piece of pie seriously please clip that somebody all right now we need to let's get that extra ball that's extra extra important do not I want dwarf Rings right now okay that's not the shot that's almost a shot let got the extra ball okay that's good dude I'm holding my breath to get the Valor too this should be an easy extra ball because it can fall in from the top now so any ball that goes into the orc lanes that goes in there should give us the extra ball like any of them come on go do the thing that's out a ball or leftover ball save either way can one of you please go into the [ __ ] cave okay go in the cave God damn it a it bounced up to the ball no no go to the [ __ ] cave H you fools well if it had bothered to go into the cave in any capacity then we would have had it so let's backhand that ramp and get that lock and then go to a nice Zen happy place let's get hydrated let's have a bevy let's have a bevy drift I wanted it to go in the cave when I say cave shop I'm talking about Gollum right there I guess let me get my fat hand out of the way that shot where it has the extra ball pointing at it lit up now that we're in single ball play I have to hit it up into the cave which is a fairly risky risky shot not super bad not super great uh but since we were in multiball all a ball had to do was fall from the pot bumpers onto the left side and go into the hole where it falls in it can either go down the hole or it can go down the right orbit and every single one of those balls went down the right orbit not one went in the left orb or down the left side it's like that Robert Frost poem The Road Less Traveled by I don't know maybe he was talking about pinball who [ __ ] knows also got this excellent pinball Life sticker that was sent to me oh look at that aren't they just don't they just have such a sense of humor i' love their brand logo replacement gimmick and sending out stickers like that super hilarious okay how many people did we get across did anybody see how many lights were lit when I was doing uh Fellowship I was not paying attention and I should have been but maybe you did uh I have a hydrating uh giant bever beverage water mug that I've have been sticking all of them on that and my wife and uh has been sticking it on hers inste our girlfriend has been sticking it on there that's a conversation for another time uh all right so we need two three more pieces of ring and we need all the multiballs so we're not really that close right now so let's make some progress we are at there and back again which we do need to get three elf rings and then we'll be good to go let's try to do that we're almost back into Return of the King which is the my biggest foe you going to give it to me this time oh my are you serious all right that's one that's two that should be three cuz it was a combo shot which it was so now we just need to go up the ring yeah well oh okay you going to give me two huh that's very generous of you game apparently if you treat it like a naughty boy or girl uh it gives you extra balls so I don't know what the hell to do here here let's just try to get it into the hole there we go okay so that'll start there and back again I'm going to get I'm going to trap up one of these and drain the other and hope to God it doesn't drain me please go on the left side it fell out are you kidding me okay okay we're going to time this out I know I'm sorry we're not here for points hopefully you're entertained by 140 mil if you don't think that's a good game on Lord of the Rings you're a monster yes there are bigger scores but if you if you get 140 you're probably going to win your local tournament uh but we're not trying for points we're trying to get to valinor so we're going to time it out timing it out Jerry brought to you by spin drift that reminds me too now that we have people here and they're listening to the music in the game this game has a pin Sound Board in it pin sound are two French brothers and they produce some pretty awesome Hardware I use their system to do my soundtrack and music and full sound design replacement of my Twilight Zone it's awesome I think maybe you will too uh and it's available on the pinsound website and they were nice enough to say that they would like to plug my channel uh and I'm telling them that I'm nice enough that I would like to plug their pin sound boards it's not sponsored but if you like making your games sound better or having the options to put other people's hard work in it so that they sound different you can do that and you can do that by going to pin sound and they'll be happy to sell you something that allows you to do that so I tried to clip that epic flipper transfer a few times and I've had an error okay if if I know what time code it is I can go dig it up though but thank you NES force all right so now we need extra pie so we're going to do War the ants cuz now that we've got the their back again it resets everything we can start from the beginning excuse me so let's do it or the an here we go I at least I at least I still know where that center Shot is we have my greasy gamer here not the shot we want that was the shot I wanted that's not the shot I want I do want Golem multiball that would be excellent right now thank you finally an absolute perfect time to have Golem multiball too because uh we're going to use it to hopefully get through well maybe not all right that's the countdown is for ring frenzy the countdown is not for the mode so let's not worry about it yes I'm Trixie I don't think that's going to count for two because it didn't eject it it's going to see it as one ball sucks okay now we want to start that which is going to put us into Return of the King multiball and we really need to do good here I cannot [ __ ] this up I'm serious don't let me [ __ ] this up that's okay that's coming back I've never concentrated so hard in my entire life I don't care about the ring frenzy we need right ramp that's fine I want two balls to be honest it's too much going on that should complete breaking the dam maybe or not oh that's such a shame that's such a shame we can sneak it in that's it okay so we got a piece of pie out of it it's all good 1 hour 15 okay I'll try to make a metal not of okay a from it's another piece of pie we're at destroy the ring again this will be our second ring destruction we need Souls again anyways cuz we got to do the whole hike we got to do the whole goddamn thing again including two towers Two Towers we're very close to getting a drpot on return to the king we are absolutely not I don't think we've gotten through one level of it which is sucks ass sucks sucks monkey [ __ ] let's [ __ ] break another ring when they meant the one ring to rule them all they meant the two maybe three rings to rule them all that's actual Lord of the Rings uh Cannon there you heard it first dirty pool pinball okay that's one or rather that's two so we Gand off and we need the right ramp that should have been Gandalf that's the right ramp that also should have been Gandalf damn it that's gandal okay now we got to shoot up the middle twice oh I didn't trip it damn it all right three more we should get an extra ball out of the uh the tower which I would really love I would really oh that's so disappointing well that's so disappointing all right we're still on ball two we didn't need to destroy that ring so it doesn't matter it would just adjust been points and we needed to get through it though Back Square One let's do it two help you've CED the three oh my God if I hit that Palante here and go down again I'm going to be so sad uh let's do ring WS oh oh no Mag oh my God oh my God give me the ball please uh The Flipper location is a little different now that we've been playing this game for like an hour and a half straight on one ball for one game that's not true it's like game three that is not a good live catch unless your definition of a live catch is it going flying away from where you want it don't you dare don't you [ __ ] dare I'm getting to Valen or godamn you ball I'm I destroyed the ring a ton of times ugly zombie that's easy I do I do have flipper fans on it I have pimpmunk fans on there to let's plug more pinball stuff in addition to pin sound if your fans need or if your flippers wear out get you some fans and they help a lot they really do but it's just if you're firing the flippers off so much there's just only so much they can do all right get up that is a good shot but what I want right now is the right ramp also what's up pilu are you still playing Godzilla uh what is it somebody one of my one of my followers said they checked out your stream you were playing something else and it was quite entertaining if you don't know pilu is also a stream where you should check out his stuff get you some good get you some good quality pinball streaming huzzah we need to get this multiball going hell yeah man good job that's a great score all right can we backhand this let's see if this Flipper's got any must mustard left in it no oh I thought that was going to be what we needed all right here we go right ramp get up there get up there okay yeah I'm trying to get shout out actually set up I theoretically have it set up but it's it's not uh I don't know streamer bot's being a little funky on that okay we need the left ramp that's it and now we need the right ramp the here's our Super Jackpot that we need to complete this one there it is okay that's one multiball done there and back again's done we literally have everything except for two of the multiballs that's fine I didn't want that [ __ ] anyways give it okay that's another Super Jackpot and that's a piece of pie so that's one this is everything complete complete except for two multiballs we finish those multiballs we destroy the ring we're done we get to Valen orb so uh one thing I did notice you can start a mode and uh start ring multiball and complete the mode so we're going to we're going to try to do that that's enough Rings apparently that gave us another mode I another piece of pie I don't know why unfortunately I did not start the mode before it started ring multiball so we're going to trap up and drain out of this I know it's a shame but we're going to do it hopefully I don't double drain like I did last time go away drain ha see now I'm not mad get out of here ball I got no need for you uh okay we need to start Return To The King and we need to start Fellowship again fellowship's ready to go so let's let's get a ramp let's get a mode going with that we'll do sarmon again yes hopefully if I can get it to drop into the paler oh now of course it sucked it in that time here we go fellowship with Gandalf running let's [ __ ] go I can't believe it's actually happening thank you rern welcome welcome uh well as with all new stream or new followers we got to give you a bath but I'm in the middle of an extremely important moment somebody give that man a bath please or girl a bath here we go all we've got everybody four or three thank you that's another one this to me I'm going to get to you whether you want it or not okay one more across the bridge and we've completed Fellowship [ __ ] yeah that's Fellowship we need one multiball and we're going to be there this is [ __ ] it hell deliberately get out of here I don't want you please drain thank you I don't care about Victory laps we got an absolute eye on the prize right now I don't even give a [ __ ] about though we that's all we care about right now is Souls 4 3 2 1 but you have anything that's too bad that shot would have done it okay doesn't matter not worried really don't care about special okay our objective now is to start Golem multiball and and get enough Rings oh why did it change his DW rings that should have comboed Elf Rings well that'll do it oh no I hate you no we're going to get one more piece of pie from doing Return of the King so we're good I'm not worried about that as far as we need we got all the pie we need that's good we do need that that's not what we need right now we just need to keep palent paler freshly lit and we need to keep getting Rings all right we what did we do Shob that's fine that's not what I wanted I really wanted Gandalf but that's all I have to do no whatever uhoh give me that okay how can we get soul is the easiest right now I guess time this out Salmon's not lit left orbit should divert into it oh my God left all should into it oh my God not work and the the really the really unfortunate thing about that is I think that that would have also lit an extra ball because we're at that amount of paler shots um but that's okay still lit all we need is Return of the King that will start destroy the ring and then we just have to actually destroy the ring it's a little higher stress right now because we do have we are on ball three so our objective is to basically mash the [ __ ] paler shot all day until we can get more another extra ball that's really all I care about right now and we need Souls so let's get let's get some that o that's close all right anywhere without me left orbit the nope go that is all of the necessary pieces of pie and we're getting green men now which is all we care about I don't care about super ring frenzy one bit but I do care about getting enough green men I'm just going to let this train out I don't care one once I see another one of those lights go off or hear his call out ah it's not giving him all right we're going to drain out of this get out of here we don't need you I don't I don't want you don't want you oh my God we could use this opportunity to get us to hold on we got a we got a objective here we want to hit the Shire Target so that it gives us it lights extra ball so we can get another extra ball that's what we want but I also don't want to drain significantly more important okay now we're on extra ball I'm going to let this drain we're going to shoot the left orbit I don't know if you saw how I did that but hitting this sh Target will cycle what your ring frenzy or I'm sorry with your gift from the elf uh bonuses so we've got it around an extra ball now I just need to hit the left orbit now we collect an extra ball big brain move okay no no don't do that to me right now game I really don't appreciate that I really don't appreciate that a come on just give me the ball yeah if you like that uh Pro gaming uh move uh please consider hitting that follow button cuz man I got the I got the pinball sweats right now I got the nerves I'm shaking in my boots all right I really want that extra ball I'm going to try to backhand it somebody tell me what the easiest way to get some more goddamn Souls is going to be because that's what we need we need to return to the king and we're done I don't have uh you know Gandalf's not lit anymore so I can't or I'm sorry War of the ants isn't lit anymore I really don't want to have to go around all that two month subers hell yeah roller coasters look we already filled the pie up that's done we've just need return to the king multiball that's it that's it all right let's get this extra ball oh my God don't be like that right now I just don't know what else I can do to get uh oh my God please don't be like that I don't know what else I can do to get um up into that's what we need right there okay yes but wor the has already been done so do I have to do their and back again in order to re uh to is there no other way to get souls right now other than getting there and back again and getting back to where the ends cuz we've done it we have Ward battle and destroy the witch King left right now we've already done there and back multiball all right let's um let post transfer over the worst post transfer in the world let's try that again come on here we go okay let's get I know dude we already filled the we filled the pie all we need is Return of the King this is the closest we've ever been like we are literally we just need to complete Return of the King and we're there right orbit and hopes for the best the diverter is not kicking out on it though H get up there let's no oh my God what an unlucky bounce I'm so glad we got that extra ball holy [ __ ] holy [ __ ] that's a you know what the other the other way is to keep getting balls in the trough so anything that's going to give are you going to give me a ball thank you anything that's going to like locks that's what I need I need two Tower locks cuz then it'll will give me a plunge and then I can try to get in there like that okay are coming those are pretty juicy all right we're at it Army let's get it no you don't no you don't mm- mm [ __ ] froto I will [ __ ] drag your decapitate was going to make a whole bunch of mean things about froto but I'm going to co Focus instead just pretend I said a lot of mean [ __ ] about froto please tell me what level I'm on chat as I'm playing I really need to know how did that not register that at ball we're good that was the point of trying to get the adab ball okay double it's fine thank you for the follow I'm really focused done all right we're going to take a chill pill for a second thank you we're going to let that Plum Bob settle cuz I did gave it a little bit of a jiggly jiggly pink ninja man you have come in an excellent time if I beat this mode all we have to do is destroy the ring and we're there and we're at destroy the ring as soon as we beat this mode this is close as it's ever been jents and J land lady jents all right I think that Plum Bob is probably uh chilling out right now yes I agree thank you Dan right orbit is the move and then if I still have control of that second ball I'll try to pop it up into Gandalf unfortunate okay now we just need to get all the way back there which means we have to get through every single one no we we didn't get there we only got to level what almost six we have like five shots to do on that [ __ ] mode and we have to get there so we got to destroy the ring that'll give us back to war the an which will allow us to get into everything and then we can just time out all the other modes cuz we just have to get there we don't have to do them yeah but I what I need one shot to get the level six and then four more theoretically to get to seven and then we're done I just got one from The Ring um sorry from the gift there should be one on paler still available so let's try to get that one cave shots might also have one soon no way Brom mm- not today [ __ ] it's a little later than there all right duly noted trying to get uh paler lit again well I guess it is lit but specifically I want it paler shots to potentially get me another extra ball oh my God but that is just righteous ly bad rubber all right we need two more and see if the tower bonus is going to give us an extra ball that would be really nice of it there it right give me that ball really little points I don't think so uh-uh not like that it's like that Matrix scene are we in The Matrix what if this game isn't shot that's one that's an extra Palance here that means we need one more on palen here to potentially get an extra ball all I want right now is an extra ball that is the extra buffer that I just need to have like some peace of mind right now is that going to give me the ball save really no ball save god dude kind Lord of The Jerk asses oh great 2 million from Beador that's what I want that's way better than an extra ball hey uh if you ever have a chance to get either a bonus of 2 million points or an extra ball always take to the 2 million points that's way better okay I know I'm trying not to I'm not getting any warnings we're good as soon as I destroy the ring I'm going to let it chill said as soon as I destroy the ring I'm going to let it chill why won't it give me the ball save that was plenty enough huta on it to get in there I'm shocked it didn't are you absolutely [ __ ] kidding me can someone look up with the other look how many do I need for another extra ball is 32 going to be it uhoh this is bad okay why won't it give me ball Oh I thought we had it I thought we had it no Miss diggle with the the froto call out that's hilarious I don't know if you mean to do that Miss diggle but that is absolutely top tier trolling right there ah God no oh my God hey like that dang is going to be right where the the Spiral Lord kale Banner thank you for the follow goab thank you for the follow L the two I appreciate it I really do I hope you enjoy that Big Bang Bar oh I really do I hope that that that's I'm putting my all into this man I swear to God that is as much pinball as I could milk out of my teeth right now thank you for the follows guys I appreciate it if that game was worth your time which I God if you didn't think so you're a big monster oh man yeah 3 Mill Lord of the Rings not a bad game and I and I timed out uh yes and I have never been more on fire with retur to King than than that moment um yeah I timed out what two or uh one there and back again I timed out multiple ring frenzies and other things just to try to make sure that we're optimized on our goal oh man I I don't think I got another one in me I want to but I'm GNA I'm trying to do less than two hours each time so that I can stream more because that 4 hour or five hour stream really [ __ ] my neck up and uh you know I'm old so I can't do that [ __ ] okay what a high uh we're gonna we're gonna send it off we're gonna do a bash Gary Stern just for people who haven't seen it since we got a lot of people in here there's a secret code you can put in and it'll make the bow rog's face Gary Stern and you can beat him up pretty fun let's do that you know you do it right cuz it goes ra like it did that means you put a secret code in if you want to know what that code is you can ask in chat I will tell you all right let's do it all I need to do is start bog will bash him it'll be funny because it'll be a white dude's face and you get to beat him up old man it's fun to beat up old man that's what uh that's what Lord of the Rings is all about between Gandalf sourman and Gary Stern this is probably the only game that has three old men with white hair that you can beat up there you go it's six uh left flippers and then one right flipper then nine left flippers and one right flipper and then you do that again so it's 61 91 61 91 the ones are always on the right and the big numbers are on the left if that makes sense uh so we just need to hit the cave shot a few times and then bash bog should happen and and uh yeah we'll beat up we'll beat up Gary which I have the utmost respect for Gary and everybody else that works at pinball companies cuz they make these and these are fun except for American pinball that guy's a huge jerk and haggus who wasted all their money on like Lotus racing cars those guys suck other than that the rest of pinball is pretty cool all right by order of the king the te cave that I don't care if you drain on me now game you have no power over me okay I think one more huh there it is okay here we go you ready watch you that DMD see if I can align it oops of course I missed ah come on watch me drain on this wouldn't that be funny oh come on there we go he look at him there he is ah don't hit me I'm a b rock Gary bur Gary stting the Bell Rock oh that should have triggered it come on give me the ball no I want to do it again oh whatever you saw it shout out Chad you saw that right somebody saw you Return of the King man I need to focus all efforts on Return of
