TL;DR

Don't Panic Flip debuts Mandalorian Premium with new stream XP system.

Summary

Don't Panic Flip streams gameplay of Star Wars: The Mandalorian (Stern Premium) while testing a new XP/level system for the stream that grants viewers personalized progression, unlocks cosmetic changes, and enables special redemptions like tattoos.

Hollywood Polo, welcome. My day was actually pretty awesome. Pirate Pwns Ninja, welcome as well. uh surreal underscore seven good evening i'm looking at the play field to say good evening to surreal hi surreal um right per person right no uh i think yeah i need to i need to add uh i definitely need to add at the very least a multiplier based on the number of people my guess is it's going to be like a 250 base and then i can do a multiplier it'd probably be something like, because the goal would be, I think, at 50 to hit 500 XP. No, 50, I think, should be 1,000 XP. Yeah, so we'd want to add 750. So if 50 people are brought over, how do you add 750? I guess that would be a 12, no, 15. It'd be a 15x multiplier. I know, right? Yeah. Who does math? Mr. Hardluck, Good evening. Hi, everyone. My awesome viewers found all the new bugs in my stream. I love them. Or you owe them. One of the two. Hey, that's awesome.

    Yes, you were supposed to be hearing first-time chat call-outs, but I forgot to unmute the mic. You know what? We're going to reset it. Hold on.
    9:32
    I've got something for this. So we go to platforms and we go reset first chat. Boom. Okay. Now, you owe me now? Yes. I do need, there's like a, I need a checklist. Do you remember when we talked about having a streaming checklist? There's so many new things happening. I do need a checklist, I think, again.
    10:01
    So now the call-outs should actually be making their way back in. Let's see here. Surreal. Welcome. Oh, so Higher Peanut redeemed a tattoo. So we are getting the hats off chameleon. I think it's going right here, and then the tail maybe is going to go around there. I think you heard it that time. Also, somebody just did something. Frisco subscribed to Tier 1. That is 11 months. Frisco, my hat's off to you. And welcome to the stream. That's a lot of announcements.
    10:36
    Target practice, that is going to be epic. On top of that, I'm scheduling it for 420, which is when we're going to go pick up Dice from Denver.
    10:45
    And Dice has agreed to stream from my Twitch account. So we are going to live stream on Thursday night me getting the tattoo that Higher Peanut redeemed on the stream.
    10:58
    And I guess I'm going to leave it up until we've gone through all of my emotes. I will plan basically to get all of my emotes tattooed at some point. But, by the way, it doesn't have to be high target practice, by the way. It doesn't have to be me that gets the tattoo. I will similarly pay for somebody else to get one of my emote tattoos for them. I'm sure there are so many different people who are like, oh, my God, what a deal.
    11:26
    I was a little quiet, but it was there. There's the reels. Okay. does the tpn logo count oh no the tpn logo does not count it is it is just it is just the uh the emotes no hollywood so higher peanut redeemed the tattoo i'm getting it and uh he got to specify which tattoo i was getting uh so i'm trying to schedule a tattoo for uh april 20th and it is the That right there. Hey there, Surio. Welcome to the stream. That little hats off chameleon at the bottom. That's it.
    12:13
    Got to keep the support going. Oh, dang. Target practice. Just resubscribed for one month. That is 15 months. Also, Dice just shared their watch streak. You're at a three watch streak.
    12:28
    Not hats off. It is hats off. Yes. Oh, how much to get Zach's personal autograph as a tattoo. That's not happening. Dr. Curly Tech, welcome.
    12:38
    Wow, we're really close to a hype train already? That's crazy. Transmeta, welcome. That was the caveat. Transmeta is that the Redeemer does not get to choose. They get to choose from a list of tattoos. Think of it as a pick list, right? Not they just get to flat out choose. That would take many points. That's plus one for whoever said that.
    13:08
    That is plus one. Go home, Dr. Curly Tech. Who is Zach Many from the Pinball Show and Flippin' Out Pinball?
    13:25
    So if you're just joining us for the first time, feel free to hit the follow button. I don't know. It's like something people do. If you are here and you've been here before, thank you so much for coming back. Tonight we are going to be playing The Mandalorian. And, George, I'd rather have your autograph on a cool shirt. Well, hey, that's interesting. So I finally – I just ordered some art from Jackson Gee, and then I'm also ordering some custom art from Jackson Gee. I am so excited. So at some point in the near future, you will see some new T-shirts available that will have a very cool design that I'm working with him on.
    14:01
    Uh, let's see here. And some, hey, speaking about merch, Dice, thank you for dropping that link. Also, Dice, I'm not sure if you saw on the chat, but I ordered a very special bottle of tequila for when you get here. I really hope you like tequila.
    14:18
    Hey, CNK is totally new here. Welcome. Hi, CNK. And we also have a Discord. Exactly, the Pinball Community Discord. You're welcome to click that link if you're not already a fan. And we're at, I think, 298 members right now. Two more, and I feel like somebody gets a toaster.
    14:37
    Ted Bishop, welcome. So if you haven't been here in a little bit, we're doing something kind of fun. You can see at the bottom.
    14:48
    There. There we go. We have a stream level, and that is we gain experience as a group. For every time we interact with the stream, be it chats or something else, that increases the XP of the stream, and the XP of the stream generates new levels. And every time we hit a new level, something significant changes, be it the aesthetics or occasionally what I call milestones. And milestones activate new things. So right now we're at level two, and we are at level two aesthetics.
    15:21
    And the big change from level one to level two is that the LCD got bigger. We have an animated background. Level 1 was just boring. It was the starting one. So Level 2 is on top of the fact that the aesthetics in Level 2 I think are cool. They're also a throwback to my first streams coming up on five years ago. So I adore tequila, says Dice, and I sleed through the roof upon your purchase. Okay, awesome. Cool. So I'm excited. That's supposed to be here next week.
    15:53
    Do we get dancing girls at Level? No. No dancing girls. Right now we max out at level five, and the goal is to get 11 levels programmed in. Today I did add some fun stuff.
    16:09
    You now can use exclamation point level and exclamation point XP to see what your current experience is and what your current level is right now. And you can actually watch that. So there you go. Dice's current level is two.
    16:27
    Hollywood Polo's current XP is current user XP. I like it. Hollywood Polo's current level is one. Transmeta. Oh, yep. There we go.
    16:43
    The level command works backwards. And, all right, cool. I'm going to set a note. It worked for a little bit. There we go. Higher Peanut's current level is one. I wonder what we broke. I don't know. Yeah. Surreal's current level is 1. Exclamation point XP. Queen Dark Lady's level is 1. Hi, QDL. You're supposed to be focusing on studying.
    17:12
    Surreal's... That's weird. Oh, it's the XP command, I think, that's not working right now. But the level command is. I'm going to disable the XP command for now. Just because it doesn't seem to be working.
    17:27
    We're going to go to... Where are commands? There's commands. We're going to go to XP, and we are going to disable it. All right. XP is disabled. Level is enabled. That's weird that it's not bringing up XP. But there we go. Problem fixed. We just don't have it anymore. Hey, BadGardenGnome, welcome. My level is 1? Well, if you could check your XP, you would know how close you are to level 2. or fix it live. That's what I do, much to the chagrin of my chat. Boom, awesome word.
    18:05
    Hey, higher peanut just increased the stream XP by 100. I don't have a notification for that. So I've got like a laundry list of like 30 items that I want to do. And all I got to do this evening was add a couple commands. That's it. First, George leaves me stranded at the DFW airport. Then he gives me a level one. This begs the question of building XP. So Tess Bishop, excellent follow-up question. How does one build XP? So this is where it gets kind of fun because the stream resets its XP every time we stream, right? So we start at level one, and we can work our way up to level eventually 11, but right now it caps at level five. But the way that we now persist experience and what you do is through viewer XP. So as you do things, you accrue XP and you personally level up. And as you personally level up, I dice.
    18:59
    In the wise words of Bill O'Reilly, F it. We're doing it live. Play the game tonight. George. Oh, in the words of George, yes. Always fix it live. I don't have easy ways to do the camera over there is the problem. So it just would be staring at the background while I try and actually fix what's going on. But as you accrue XP, and let's say you hit level two, a really good example of what happens. But as you level up, when you engage, it's worth more experience. And a really good example is when Dice chats now, he adds two XP to the stream, as opposed to everyone else when they chat at level one is adding one XP. So that's a really simple one to look at is that your level is the amount of XP that you donate to the stream every time you talk. So we just went from – oh, we just leveled up again. Pirate Pose Ninja just increased by 100. We cracked – I want to say it was like 1,500 XP high. Probably should put something on this one that says, hey, we made it to level three.
    20:09
    But now the aesthetics change. So check it out. Now we're at level three. And Test Bishop, every time you do things, including if you increase the XP, if you sub, if you do bits, whatever it is, you increase your personal XP. Now, Test Bishop, in this case, the stream leveled up, but you may not have personally leveled up. Hopefully that difference makes sense. And your personal XP never goes away. You continue accruing XP, and that doesn't reset. So at some point, you might be a level 15, and every time you chat, you're going to be adding 15 XP to the stream.
    20:46
    How much XP do I get for suggesting more nested scenes? Manu, what level do you want to be? Manu and Jedi McMuffin and Brendan, aka Surreal, they're all special. So I can bump that. They could be level threes right now.
    21:05
    CMK, steal XP. um now you want to okay okay i'm sure i'm sure we'll we'll all we'll all earn it but yeah so that's that's what's happening that's what we're doing right now at some point there will be a fun video i feel like that explains this and then we're going to do some really cool stuff with like who's gained the most xp on this stream who on the stream right now has the highest level and things like that like it it's going to get fun the problem right now is just setting aside time to actually develop all of the code because this is an application, no question about it. This is a full C-sharp application at this point. There is so much custom C-sharp code embedded in order to do fun stuff. And I have a lot more plans. So I'm really, really enjoying, I feel like developing for the stream again. I think this has been a rad opportunity to play around and do some cool things with streamer bot which has been great um i was at level three once the doctor gave me a penicillin shot as i got bumped down to level two play hey my silver marble isn't showing up this game blows transmeta let's get in there excellent point here we go so now we're we're once again at level three and we have does stern insider have a robust xp system uh there is definitely a tracking mechanism and you can gain or accrue points i don't know if it's really in terms of XP. I don't know if you level up as you accrue XP, but I haven't spent a lot of time on their website to look at how that information is used. But you definitely accrue accomplishments or achievements, which may happen at some point, right? Like, imagine you get trophies and stuff like that. Like, how... It's a really cool idea. I'm very happy with everything we've done here. Laser LOS, exactly. Yeah, this is, it's basically become work after work. Hi, laser. And welcome, there you go.
    23:07
    Chivo, ZugZug, ready to serve. So let's play a game. I have four unused beer holders that need to be installed on pinball machines. They've all come off. The pinball machines I've sold, I've got one pinball machine right now while I wait for two more to come in.
    23:28
    and I don't have a place to put my beer. Hey, CodemanTV, welcome to the stream. Out of all the tracking mechanisms I've ever seen, it sure is one of them.
    23:42
    All right, what are we doing tonight? Cool, cool, cool. Thank you, game. I'm fine with that bank shot. That was obviously intentional. imagine doing it again wait wait wait what am I doing what did I do a couple years ago Stern mentioned earning physical rewards in Insider but I don't know if that was implemented I do know that the thought is that you might eventually score swag okay we're up top that's weird you guys can't see the close up of the up top there's that there's that we're doing things dare i ask if the tilt bob is in place honestly i should probably double check after this uh the swag factor yes um i think it was more event-based at TPF. They're doing prizes for the April leaderboards. George, how much XP do we need to see Armando? I do not have Armando Topper. I don't know that I'm going to get that. It's 2,000. I want it. So it's not that I don't think it's worth owning. I just, I would rather have pinball machines right now. Top eight for verified and top eight for not verified scores on Rush. Oh, it sucks. I just put up 5.5 bill on Rush. That would have been a good one. Although I don't think it would have lasted that long. All right. Hey, we found the asset. There's one mode done. Easy peasy, lemon squeezy. Let's see here. And yeah, they do prizes. I should get my local operator to actually register the Insider Games. It's not worth owning, but it's cool. MPT3K, are you talking about Insider Connected, or are you talking about Rush?
    26:11
    That was cool. Because Rush, I just got rid of the Ellie, and there is a part of me, as I'm trying to figure out what the fourth game is going to be while I wait for Pulp Fiction to get here, is I wait, oh, the Mando Topper. It's cool, but not worth owning. Okay, that makes a lot of sense. But I just got rid of Rush Ellie two days ago. No, three days ago. That was Sunday, I think, when Daniel came and picked it up. And TMNT got picked up today. So as I'm sitting there and I'm thinking, what do I do for this fourth game? I'm kind of considering a Rush Pro after all of that. Like, that's how much I really enjoyed Rush.
    26:50
    Ha, get it? Rush not lasting that long. Dot, dot, dot, dot, dot, dot, dot, dot, dot, dot. Yeah, exactly. More like prices are over the topper. Dr. Curly Tech, take a point. Dice, take a point as well. Rush Premium is great. I much prefer the Ramp Time Machine area than the Pro. Yes. I get it.
    27:13
    I don't know. I haven't spent any time on the pro, so I feel like I have to... I don't know. Wow, that was great.
    27:25
    Good times. Would Stern sell twice the amount of Mando toppers at 1K? That's interesting. What do I want to do? Oh, I just want to hit this ramp. There we go.
    27:45
    And then there's another mission start, but I can hit the scoop instead of the shot. That's great. What are we going to do? Oh, no.
    28:07
    Sure. Okay, started our second mission. I really want to bring a multiball into this. Totally got there.
    28:31
    Okay, we're going to do that again. All right, now we're ready to bring in that multiball. Got it. I love that Bill Burr is in this game.
    29:10
    Okay, what do we need to hit here? We need this left orbit, it looks like. Totally got there. Really?
    29:30
    All right, getting a feel for those flippers. Let's try that left orbit again. Oh, my God. Fourth time.
    29:40
    He wants me to hit that left orbit again. Sure. Bill is in this game. He's from Planet Wicked Pissa. I never heard him use so much pal language than when he mentions... Wait, what?
    30:12
    Okay, hold on, hold on. Oh, Andre. Got it. Not me. That was Andre talking about Lowe's. Really? Eh, that is a don't shoot it from the left side. Uh-oh. No, okay. I thought we lost the camera there for a second.
    30:40
    Mando does not favor Andre. All right. We've had better games. Let's try it again. God, that music is so good. Also, who is keeping up on season three?
    31:03
    Really? All right. The child is lit. That could do things for us. Going to use that scoop a bunch. Let's see here. I can't be bothered to watch season one, so not me. Transmeta's not there. Mostly caught up on season three, I think. I may have one episode in the bank. Queen Dark Lady, aren't you supposed to be studying?
    31:32
    I haven't watched it yet. I'm waiting until it's all out so I can binge it. I completely understand. I've been watching it one episode at a time. I finally got Zoe caught up. And now she's telling me I can't watch any episodes without her. So, you know, standards.
    31:47
    Oh, no. All right, that was fun. That's what we're doing. We're doing multi-ball on ball one. It's a thing.
    32:16
    I'm going to wait until the whole series is out and Disney retcons half of it before I watch. Okay. Oh, wow. It's going to give it to us.
    32:56
    All right. That's fine. That's fine. I guess we're going to go... What do we need? Was that an add-a-ball? I don't think that was an add-a-ball. So I'm going to go up here and see what we can do.
    33:08
    You're getting through Ted Lasso, then more Garth Marenghi's Dark Place, then maybe I've never heard of Garth Marenghi's Dark Place.
    33:23
    Darn it. Cool, cool. awesome and now we need this right orbit I think got it darn it okay that did something uh and now we need to hit this left shot just like that
    34:00
    Darn it. I thought maybe I could sneak it there, but I think the... Oh, really, game? That was mean.
    34:21
    Dark Place is very early Matt Berry stuff. I'm not familiar with Matt Berry. I have to... Okay, Garth Marenki is so good. I'm probably mispronouncing that last name.
    34:32
    Matt Berry and Richard Aode. So who is Matt Berry? Why everyone keeps talking about Matt Berry Has Matt Berry done something else Oh Snuffbox which I don know Hollywood also jumping on the I not heard of it bus
    34:54
    Alright, the foundry is lit. We've got 288 Beskar. Let's go ahead and start our encounter. IT crowd. Okay. Got it. I do really like the IT crowd.
    35:17
    I do not have that. Hollywood below. I definitely did not. The later season boss in IT crowd. Oh, that I don't know.
    35:31
    All right, let's get some levels done on encounters. Ball three. Backhand. Cool. Cool, cool, cool, cool, cool. I can see it's going to be one of those kind of evenings.
    35:57
    Wait, wait, wait. What we do in the shadows? Now, what we do in the shadows is a fantastic television show. I need to jump back into that.
    36:09
    First names that start with G for 500, Alex. It is such a tight backhand test, Bishop. Just checking to make sure the flipper thingies work. Oh, my God. Rotary girders there Hey, MPT3K, thank you so much for hanging out Thank you so much for that amazing raid I'm sure you've generated lots of XP It needs to be super fast and snappy I know exactly what you're talking about Alright, there's one and you know what i'm doing it all the way around and there's our mode mission number five wow that was not intentional we're fine. We're all fine here. What do I want to hit here? I can go for an encounter and a mode shot. That's good. I'll take it. My new role there to stalt for an event in the future through rather no ability to follow that.

    Okay. We're now at level 2. Darn it. And level 3. Now we need to hit oh no. That shot. Can we All right, cool. All worked out well. All's well that ends well, as I like to say.
    38:05
    I don't know what I got there. It seems like I hit a lot of things, though. 45% accuracy. I've had better.
    38:14
    What do we want to hit? I don't feel like there's an easy way to post-transfer here. Hmm. Do we need to upgrade the stream to get the game audio? Hey, Decibel. No, unfortunately not. I don't have the audio plugged in. Honestly, I could have it. Yeah, I could have it plugged in. That's stupid. I should have it plugged in.
    38:55
    Memorize the soundtrack for Mando. Hold on. There we go. So that's how you post transfer in Mando. We'll see what happens. We're doing it live.
    39:15
    How's that? Three-point post pass. Crispy laser sound effects. Is that coming through okay on the sound?
    39:37
    Looks like it's about middle blingy live Mando reaction. It's good, I think, since it's Dested Bull. I like that. All right.
    39:52
    And I've got it here, too, so we're all very happy right now. Hey, that first mission is done. Beautiful, beautiful. What do we need now? We need child, we need ramps, and we need a razor crest. We've got to do all the things. Let's see if we can hit this left orbit. Totally got there.
    40:15
    Got it. Watch this. You can control where the ball goes, kind of. We're good. So we're now on the second mission. I'm going to go left ramp. Oh, my God.
    40:45
    I'm going to try and back... Oh, no. It's fine. It's fine. Whatever. Now the ball's over there. Scoop is... Yeah, I couldn't get the ball to the... Shooting that scoop from the right side, I might be able to do in an hour. I can't do it right now consistently.
    41:15
    It's fine. It's fine. We're all fine here. Can I move it without... All right, we're going to keep moving it. Hopefully the tilt bob can help. We're good. We're good. We're so good. There we are. There we are. Moved it back. Decibel, just a heads up, that headphone output is an amp level output. And if you're going into an audio interface, that's going to accept pre or line level audio. You're going to have distortion on the louder sound effects because the dynamic range of the app level output can be large.
    42:07
    So Decibel, what do I need to set the input to in order to not have that distortion? Because that is definitely an issue. I have experienced that, the issue you're describing right now.
    42:31
    Trying to start a multiball here. Bill from Memphis, welcome. Season three, commando I think is pretty good so far. Which right ramp? And now we're ready to start a multiball. Best guard for completion.
    43:03
    Oh my god. What would it be like to hit a shot? There we go. All right, what do we need to hit right now? Lots of shots.
    43:31
    So I'm going to go for the middle. All right, we're doing some things here. Now we need to hit this left orbit.
    44:03
    All right, that's fine. There we go. We're going to try this again. I'm going to go for this left orbit. Totally got there.
    44:18
    We're doing things. There is two right ramps. Well, there's the temporary, I guess, right ramp that comes down, but it's not there all the time. It's a situational.
    44:47
    There we go. Okay. Hit that shot. Did we hit the foundry? We've got 327. And I've got, it looks like the encounter going right now, and it's moving. I've got to hit the mode shot.
    45:39
    There we go. Nice and flat up there. One and a half ramps. Okay, cool. I'm using a... It's the Rodecaster Pro 2.
    46:04
    And Decibel, yes, I would love to chat offline, because like I said, I've noticed exactly what you're talking about. I'm going to wait for the top to go level again.
    46:18
    Oh, maybe a little premature. It's fine. I'm going to go for that left orbit. Oh, my God. Why does that reject so much?
    46:41
    That's right. I was at two. We're cool. I feel on the premium, if I play the upper of like I'm always backhanding steeply, I survive longer. Yes.
    47:00
    If I play the upper play field, I'm always backhanding steeply, I survive. Okay, that's interesting.
    47:18
    We're at level two now in our second encounter. And we're at 377 Beskar. So I'm going to go for it. That was crap, game. Thank you.
    47:42
    The ball hangs up longer that way, to elaborate. Oh, it's a very short play field. backhands can help keep the rebound speed down. Okay. Okay. I like it. I like it. I think I could do that. I try to backhand. And there we go. What do I do? I don't have extra ball yet. It would be good to get both of these guys. Am I on ball three? I think I'm on ball three because we sucked it up there at the end.
    48:46
    What do we want now? We've got an encounter. I'm going to wait for it to move up. It's cool. Definitely going to hit it this time. There it is.
    49:14
    Cheesy Buddha, did you have to recalibrate your shots for Mando? I had to do that for TMNT. It takes me a while to recalibrate after TMNT.
    49:23
    It's not that hard of a game. I don't know why it's being so brutal right now. By hanging up, I mean the ball stays elevated above the flippers. Yeah, you're saying keep it more vertical and just try and backhand.
    49:58
    I think, at least. We're going to keep going here. Solid. Like where the game's headed, Zach? There's one.
    50:20
    And two. Nice and easy. All right, Happy. Nice and easy. Ball hits peak off sling. Hard sharp forward nudge to pop it up. Ball hits the... The sling peak. Got it.
    50:45
    Okay, now we're in a mode... Ugh. There we go. All right, now we're ready to start our encounter, which I can do there. I also need to hit the yellow shot there.
    51:42
    Really? All right. I think one more shot before we light our multiball. I can hit the encounter here. The highest, a small bounce off that tends to dribble out. Okay. You're talking about like right there.
    52:01
    Off that. Give it a sharp nudge as it hits. All right. So I'm going to try a backhand here. And then wildly lose control.
    52:15
    We got 12.3 million on Mudhorn. So now we can shoot for the scoop. I'm going to actually try the encounter now.
    52:34
    There we go. Scoop. There it is. And awesome. Beautiful. Okay, we're in a mode. And now I'm going to go ahead and start that multiball.
    53:01
    And Janket. Thank you. Super jackpot is lit. Got it. Whatever. Okay. Now we've got some more mode shots. We've still got our encounter, which we have done almost nothing on. I'm going to hit that shot yeah we did an okay amount of stacking there oh no that did not make it over oh man like I have a drink somewhere
    54:36
    wow that's good okay There's one. There's two. Now we're ready to start, I think, our third mission.
    54:49
    Trying to backhand. And... Sure, we're just forehanding stuff now. Looks like we've got the backhandable ramp. I really, so what's fun is I've got Pinmonk's flipper fan coil cooling kits. I've got a set specifically for Mando. I just need to get him installed.
    55:20
    Okay, backhand. Nope. All right, ball three. I think once we start this... Oh, it's the fourth mode.
    55:45
    Normally, we would get an extra ball. I feel like we're in that weird bit of coding where we finish too many missions consistently, so it doesn't give us the extra ball. I really don't like that code. there's one there's two level three one shot yeah the cooling kit will be so helpful for this
    56:24
    there we go Got Deceive the Magistrate. This is going to be mission number four. Still don't have an extra ball lit. That's crap.
    56:39
    There's one. What do we got here? So we have to hit the middle in order to advance the Razor Crest timing thing. I can't think of what those are called.
    56:55
    I think you may only get one from one. Yeah, and I'm fine with one. I don't think we haven't gotten any of our extra balls yet. We're on our fourth mission right now.
    57:06
    It's a hurry up. There we go. And there's our hurry up. I really don't care about the hurry-up, but whatever. Let's hit it.
    57:40
    Darn it. Yeah, Meta Knight Man, what I'm saying is it's not... There's... If you... I don't know how to turn it off, but there's an algorithm in Spirited Games where if you get to the extra ball too often, it makes it more difficult to get to the extra ball. And I'm in that phase where I think I have to get to the fifth mission before it enables the extra ball. Because we haven't gotten an extra ball yet.
    58:13
    And yeah, you've got to complete the hurry up to get to the next... Now, there's a way that you can get there faster somehow with Hunter. That I don't understand yet.
    58:24
    Somebody just did something. Craft Brew Dude, thank you very much for that follow. Let's go child. 2.5 million, that's great. There we go.
    58:50
    The Hunter Complete does it. Okay, wait, it does it? There we go. So you really only get one multiball once a ball, except if you do the hunter mode, it'll light the hurry up to get you into the next multiball. Got it.
    59:24
    All right. There's that. Up and around. Now we're going to go middle. There's that, too. Left ramp. Nope.
    59:42
    We're going to go left ramp and also start our encounter. There's one. Darn it. So we made it to level two.
    59:57
    Now we need to hit this left and right orbit, I think, or we can get into multiball. But we're in our first mission.
    60:13
    I love a twofer. So if we can hit a mode shot and an encounter, I'm going for it. The 2.5 million award is weird code. It should be random, even if it doesn't go through a lane. Okay? We're now on level three.
    60:32
    And what do I want to hit right now? I think I want to hit the scoop. Nope. I did not want to hit the scoop. I don't have that dialed in yet. Because it most often doesn't go through a lane. Yeah, so dumb having massive opening on the right for the mystery.
    60:54
    All right, so there's that. There's one. There's two. I would love to backhand everything. The problem is if I have the ball over on the right, I can't post-transfer. Otherwise, I would definitely Meta Knightman backhand everything.
    61:27
    That was good. Nope. We'll get it figured out at some point. What do we need here? Now we need that. Got to finish off level three. cut that was basically just to stop it there
    62:14
    there all right we got it over and i'm gonna backhand that sucker and nope There we go. I'm really sorry, but it really annoys me that you aren't going for the perfect stack. But that's a meep. What's the perfect stack, Meta Knightman?
    62:45
    Location post transfers are fine. Yeah, I'll show you what happens here when I try to do a post transfer. All right.
    62:53
    Mode multi... Oh, the flamethrower doesn't do anything for me, though. It's just metanymen. It's just points, right?
    63:02
    I mean, I can do it. It doesn't hurt to do it. As long as I don't drain anything there. What are we doing? Middle.
    63:18
    All right. So, post-transfer. Totally worked. On the multi-ball, flamethrower does seem to help, but I'm new to the game. Flamethrower is 2x per shot, which multiplies for both the mo-shots and the... But it's... I'm not concerned about scoring, though. So if you don't care about scoring and if you're just going for progression... I totally understand why that that mentality may oh no that was the moment where I should have given it a nice beautiful forward nudge as it hit the top to get it out of there which I which is why I said it's a it's a me problem uh okay but there we go if there's an extra ball for points there's a for points you definitely get you can win a game I don't know that there's an extra ball for points in this.
    64:30
    We're going to give it another try. There we go. Keep the prog going. There it is. Nope, too much.
    65:07
    There's that. Almost did it. So that's an encounter. I know it was a forehand, and I should be backhanding everything. We'll keep trying. I think I can backhand it. I just have to get the timing. It's not like a normal set of timing.
    65:37
    All right, let's try that. Nope. Let's see. We're in the mode. Spinner builds a ward, shoots in a ramp.
    65:55
    Just a little nudge. Yeah, multiball mode is always good to go. I always try to combo up a multiball in a mode. We're on ball two.
    66:13
    All right. There's that. Not what I meant to do. That's perfect. Whatever. I'll take that. Sure. So, Decibel, I've been reading so many rule sheets lately. Worst strategy because they all blend. The worst strategy to learning rules is to read a bunch of different games all together because they all blend together.
    67:04
    Alright, and there. There. and shoot the left scoop. Done. Okay, so I think that mode is done. Nope.
    67:31
    Okay. Oh, we're on three, so that doesn't spot me a shot anymore. So now we actually have to hit the ramp. There it is. On the fly.
    67:47
    There we go. We'll get him next time. It felt like a good way to get better at pinball without spending money. Absolutely. Yeah, the rules are huge. What was the breakdown? Somebody just did something. What is... That was Game Club Central. Marty just rated us with seven beautiful people. Marty, welcome, and thank you for bringing those beautiful people over. My hat's off to you. Marty, how the heck are you doing? Marty just cheered 100 bits.
    68:24
    We are getting actually pretty close, I think, to... Hey, Jam78MO, welcome to the stream. What was that? Hey, and Jam, thank you very much for that follow.
    68:38
    We are, yeah, Stern rulesheeds blow, though. I'll defend that to death. Marty is doing well, glad to hear. We are on ball three. We are playing this game horribly right now.
    68:57
    Really? There it is. Uh, KevTabulous, welcome to the stream. Yeah, tilt forums is definitely my go-to as well. What are we going to do here?
    69:14
    You know what, we're going question mark. Plus one multiplier Boom Really Really? And now we're ready for the multiball. All right, mode and a multiball.
    69:54
    Meta Knightman, this is for you. We're in a tight spot. Did you hear it? All right. like the way the game's head is thinking there.
    70:41
    It's going to hurt. All right. We've got an extra 2x right now. Got it. Okay, we're going to need some more shots.
    71:16
    Man. Whatever, we're back in the foundry. We're going to go with the question mark. Ice Spider feels like the least valuable multiball, but maybe I'm doing it wrong. Jetpack is the weak one. You might be. Jetpack is the weak one. Okay. Flamethrower moves from one side to the other, covering shots. If you don't hold it long enough, you only cover some of the shots. What just happened? Did I talk through it?
    71:41
    Okay. That's, I think, what we just did. We need that right orbit. Hey, what just happened? We just got level four. We got a raid from Bumper Nugget. Hey! Hey! Welcome! Thank you so much for that raid. We're bringing three beautiful individuals over. Boom. We just upgraded.
    72:08
    Hi. Level four. We're close. Just make sure you're ready for the super when it ends. Yep. Up and around.
    72:22
    Notice, by the way, no extra ball. Darn it. Okay. The question is, do we forehand or do we go for encounters? I think we go for encounters and we do not forehand.
    72:45
    15 seconds. Not a huge rush. Okay. Up and around. Let's wait for the ball to get over on that flipper.
    73:07
    Okay. Nope. Now we're going to go for that left ramp. Or left scoop, I mean. The only scoop. I don't know why I had to say left. Seraph, backhand the scoop to light the first mission. Shoot center to prep multi. Seraph, welcome to the stream. let's see we're going to go for level 3 again oh no oh my god yeah Too many shots. I just need one shot to focus on. What can I do?
    73:57
    Yeah, it is tough. Like, this game is great with backhands. The problem is I can't get the ball from one flipper to the other at all. It's fine. We're just going to keep playing it.
    74:14
    What do I want to do here? I want to hit the scoop. Thank you. I'm like, you better give me that. Up and around.
    74:31
    Not what I wanted to have happen at all. Also, not. Okay, that's fine. That's fine. Cool. I'm just... We've just got to be really good at forehands in this game. With no ability to move the ball from one side to the other, you've just got to say, screw it, and be better at accuracy. I think that's it. Oh, you're just trolling me? Wait, what? I can just see. Oh, yeah. So the key to this game is hitting that center shot. And once you start hitting that center shot, you just keep doing that constantly.
    75:45
    All right. There we go. It is a very straightforward game, for sure. And yet, troll away. Slimy, yet satisfying.
    76:03
    All right. We're in this mode. There's a 2x ramp shot that was lit for a second. I'm going to work on multiball.
    76:16
    Totally got there. Yep, we're going to bring it in. And for meta Nightman, I definitely... I definitely used the Flamethrower. That said, my hand actually slipped off it. so that's not great, but I did the thing.
    77:05
    Alright, what do we got here? We want to hit... I think this is... No, there's no add-a-ball up there, but I can hit...
    77:16
    Okay, we're going to go... Man, I got to hit that right ram. Totally, totally got there. Yep. Good, good. All right.
    77:57
    That is such a dangerous shot. If you can't hit that backhand, you are so screwed. There. Forehand. It's fine. We're going to do it live. 5.
    78:16
    Is that mode done? We're still on ball 1. We've been through technically a multi-ball and a mission. I've had better.
    78:29
    We're going to get those spotted mode shots there. Hit. Wow. Wow. That was a lot. Notice, still no extra ball. We're not getting it. Buy armor ASAP. Okay.
    78:59
    For a few hundred, a hundred Beskar, I tripled my multi-balls, saved armor for the rest of the game. Yes, thank you. So, let's do that. Got the armor.
    79:11
    All right, Nick Nolte, thank you. Let's see here. What do we need to get? We need... We haven't made any progress on our encounters yet. Let's do... Let's see what happens here.
    79:41
    We're good. We're fine. We're all fine. There's that. And then a forehand to the toughest shot in this game. Thank you.
    80:04
    Darn it. I'll take it. I'll take it. We have also lit Hunter, which will allow us to get back in our multiball if we can hit it.
    80:18
    Can't do in mode. Forgot. Notice he can't do Hunter. And what do I need to hit right now? All right. You know what? I'm going to do this.
    80:43
    That worked. That was maybe a bit of an overreaction. All right, so we timed out Hunter. That was great. We also timed out the mode, so we're on our third mode.
    81:16
    I'm going to try and backhand this again. There it is. And screw that. We're going for that. Okay. Okay, we're making some progress. Dalton, welcome. Is it me or the overlay kind of blocking the scores? You don't need scores anyways.
    81:47
    Yeah, no, no, no. It totally might be blocking the scores. I haven't looked at it like game specific at this point.
    81:55
    All right. We really need to start an encounter, don't we? Yeah, I think we need to do that. We're at level four. At level five, those go away. Oh my god, there's a second player in this game.
    82:18
    Okay, we're going for there. Now what do we need? We can do the encounter. We can do that shot. That worked out well for us.
    82:36
    All right, we can try the right orbit here. Got it. Magistrate of Wardshoot flashing yellow shots. We need some more.
    82:53
    We've also got two targets left to get back into Hunter. Got it. That felt better. We do need to shoot the left scoop here.
    83:19
    Let's see. Can you do impossible mode? Wait, we want the scores. Can you not? You really can't see the scores.
    83:29
    Huh. No, I can't do it there. don't worry about it they're great I can't unsee it now there we go deceive the magistrate completed there's our third mode done we'll we'll have to figure out how to get that fixed and now we're on our fourth mode we've got an extra 2x, we're still in our first encounter, so that's where we're going to be struggling, right?
    84:18
    Thanks, game. Thank you. Now we need this right ramp. and that when it jumps out of the scoop, does anybody else find that frustrating? Like, just a little bit.
    84:40
    Okay. Now we're back in this. We're back in the car again. But at least you're out of the tree. I'm at 165 million. God.
    84:59
    What do we need? We need that shot. It's fine. We're all fine here. Stay in the scoop, please. Go in the scoop. I didn't want extra points. We're now on our last mission. We really need those encounters, though. We're just not doing it.
    85:44
    All right, two shots. We can get this. One go. Get up there. All right. We did damage up there. 35% accurate for bonus level of 24.5. Okay. I mean, that wasn't nothing. last mission here and we're ready for the next encounter i do not have hunter lit uh head it out hey hire peanut have a great birthday dinner we're going to try and stream the the tattoo on the 20th so hopefully you're there for that um yeah we're at 211 right now Got it.
    86:58
    Taking it. That's the last mission. Before we light, I like those odds. I really need to get into Hunter, so that way...
    87:08
    we can figure out... So that we can get back into our multiball. There we go. We're about ready to start our second encounter.
    87:23
    Get up there. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Make it flat. All right, we're on level three. That's not bad. That's honestly not bad. We're almost done with encounter level two right away. I know. I don't know how we did a player two. There we go.
    88:07
    Got it. All right. No, no, no, don't be vertical. All right, we're... Hey, I actually got one. Um. Left orbit. Do I do the left orbit or do I... No, I'm just going to... I'm going to focus on this encounter right now. Kangaroo song.
    88:36
    Done. Encounter number two is done. Now we need these orbits. do not self-destruct hey that was done okay I like those odds is ready to start we do need to qualify it I think yeah we got to hit those uh the two ramps again um we could also focus on actually let's just hit the ramps we can also focus on the encounters right now
    89:17
    Um, we're going to forehand that ramp. Just like that. And then we're going to backhand that sucker. Look at that. We're in our first wizard mode, or mini wizard mode of the night. I really do like this mini wizard mode, too. All three of these mini wizard modes are a lot of fun. One. Ah, ah, ah. Two.
    89:59
    Three. Four. I'll take it. I'm taking it. Phase one is now complete. On to phase two. Shoot the flashing shots.
    90:14
    Doing the same thing. There's one. And... Four, five. Boom. Okay. Now we're on to the fun multiball, which is phase three. Let's see if we can do this. Here they come. All right.
    91:47
    Here we go. We need this left orbit. Really? Get up there! All right. I have a flamethrower right now. I know, I'm totally getting blocked.
    92:44
    All right, here we go. Left orbit. Got it. All right. We are done with missions. We're now ready to keep going on encounters. and we really have to work on our hunter in order to get to the next multiball.
    93:18
    Not bad, though, for ball one. And our foundry has 513. Notice, by the way, still no extra ball right now. No extra ball. What is going on with the rules on this?
    93:32
    I'm going to save. No, I'm not. All right, that's fine. I'm going to hit those targets. Okay, there's our foundry.
    93:49
    What do I want here? Oh, wow. Start ambush, build lock-in, then... What? All right, so we have one more hunter target. We've also got scope lit.
    94:25
    600 buys the extra ball. Yep, I was trying to get a question mark on it and see what happens there. What do we want here?
    94:36
    I guess encounters. We can hit that again. And last hunter target. Darn it, we just lit hunter. Please stay lit. Oh, actually, it just automatically once we get to the next ball.
    95:00
    Why do we have two players right now? All right. The extra ball is ready. Ah, at the foundry. Got it. I'm just going to give this a second.
    95:20
    I don't understand how we got two players. Okay. Foundry is ready. We're at 667. We can buy this guy.
    95:36
    And... There we go. Light extra ball. Done. And Jenga. Extra ball is lit. I'm sorry, extra ball is grabbed. and now we could use the child right now. We have armor equipped. We have more ball save for the rest of the game. If we can hit this shot up and around.
    96:22
    Now we need to hit this left orbit. Got it. Okay. Oh, but we didn't even need that. I guess it gave us a bunch of extra foundry. Yeah, we're back at 328. I don't even know. You know what? Screw it. We're just going to get it because why not?
    96:45
    What is this? Add a ball in our multiball. Light encounter. Two items. Light scope. You get two items. Outlane ball save. That sounds positive. Let's do that.
    97:04
    The add-a-ball is super nice. Let's see if we can get back in there. Also, child is lit. I have a feeling that the child is going to start awarding us some really cool stuff.
    97:19
    Let's go up and around. All right. Totally intentional and child. Nope. There we go. One more to finally light our Razorcrest multiball thingy. Ugh.
    98:20
    All right. I kind of just want to time this out. I really don't care about it at this point. I'm going to focus on encounters.
    98:36
    Alright. Third encounter. This one's moving around. I'm going to wait until it gets a little flat and then try to trap up.
    98:44
    There's one. We're still in our Razorcrest hurry-up, which is fine. Okay, we're on level one is done. Now we're shooting for level two. We got one. I'm gonna do it again, wait until it gets flat. It's kind of fun. We got another one. Now we're gonna do this again. Darn it, but we hit level three.
    99:25
    Okay, now we're out of our Razorcrest hurry-up. We're on level three for encounters. I'm going to... Let's jump into the encounter.
    99:45
    Is this going to keep... Okay, this is going to keep moving. All right, we're doing stuff here. One more shot and level three is done, and then we're ready to get into our second mini wizard mode.
    100:02
    And... Bob's your uncle. Level three encounter is done. Fine. Feeling pretty good. Also, we've got that outlane heal I need to remember about.
    100:26
    There's another. Two more. There's another. Uno mas. All right, that's fine.
    100:57
    Good. All right, so we're in our second multiball, which is jetpack. So I'm lighting all of the shots.
    101:32
    Okay. And I think this is an add-a-ball up here. Trap up at least one ball after the ball stays. Oh, wow. I was really stupid about the timing there.
    102:16
    We're cool. All right. All right, be patient. Be patient. All right. Keep it going.
    102:40
    Got it. All right, so we've got the add-a-ball. All right. We've still got our extra ball at this point. I don't think we can work on our encounters while we're in this multiball.
    103:18
    All right. Got it. I don't know what that jackpot was worth. All right, quit freaking out, game. I don't know, I wasn't watching. But we're already at 262 Beskar. Our child is lit still, and we just need to hit the heck out of that left ramp in order to get to You Have What I Want. At the same time, we can work on getting to Hunter to relight our Razor Crest and get back into it. So I think we're doing okay right now. Maybe.
    104:02
    That did nothing Why is this red Whistling. Oh, use mission smart bombs. Got it. Two. Oh, evidently we used our heel, I think. Yeah, that felt like a code glitch.
    104:39
    All right, but we are going to get into precious. Well, to our hurry up to enable us to get into precious cargo.
    104:58
    Oh my god, do not Wow There goes our extra ball That was crap, but I mean a decent bonus Oh Darn it
    105:25
    I forgot about the two player thing All right, we're back on to player two. We're at 995 million. Just hitting that center.
    106:00
    Darn it. I really want the child. I feel like there's an extra ball in the child right now. I feel like I'm being stupid here, but I really want the child. Got it. Where is it? Hunter, heal. Hunter is lit.
    106:41
    All right. That's Bishop. You were right. And all right. So we've got a big hurry up here. Can we time this out? I really don't care about it.
    107:09
    There we go. So now we're in our mini wizard mode for encounters, but we're on our last ball, which kind of sucks. You have what I want. Phase one, get on the ship, shoot four shots to complete.
    107:38
    There we go. All right, four shots, and we drain it. Oh, it drained the ball. One more to complete phase.
    108:30
    Rotate, rotate, rotate, rotate! Alright, we're going to do this again. We got this. Or not. That was a tough backhand right there.
    108:55
    X, welcome to the stream. Got it. All right. Level complete. I don't know the significance of that. I'm just going to keep going. All right.
    109:19
    Level complete. All right, level complete for three million. Okay, three more to complete the phase. Awesome. So we are getting really close.
    109:52
    Darn it. The patience here is kind of interesting. This is a lot of fun. Got one. Ugh! Okay. I don't know what just happened.
    110:37
    All right. Got to hit this. Two more shots. Last shot. One more to complete phase four.
    111:19
    Got it. Level complete. Value jack. I don't know what I'm... A yellow shot is your friend. That's a very tough shot to hit. We're going to try it again here.
    111:50
    It is tip of the flipper. Oh, interesting. Three more shots. One more to complete the phase. Got it.
    112:48
    I don't understand what we're doing right now. Our value jack costs are increased, but what am I really doing?
    112:59
    Yellow shot is your friend. So I'm just going to hit the yellow shot for a little bit. That's not good.
    113:37
    Left orbit. Got it. There's one more. All right. Something just happened. What do I have to do? Go ham now. I don't understand.
    115:07
    I honestly I feel stuck like I could not get out of that wizard mode it was awful red or dead But we set a GC, which I guess that's pretty cool.
    115:42
    Who do we got to throw this one at? Target practice, if you're still on, you're getting on here. I know, that was uncool game. I really didn't know what I was supposed to be doing there. Target, I'm going TGT.
    116:09
    If you have other initials you want in here, let me know. Yeah, that was not intuitive in my opinion. But, I mean, it was a decent score, and there's a part of me that's kind of happy we didn't beat the game just now.
    116:32
    Not awful. Also, you guys couldn't even see the scores because the level four brackets were covering it. So there we go. Something fun to figure out is how to adjust that so that way the whole LCD can be seen on something like Mandalorian, especially since we're going to be playing Mandalorian a decent amount over the next week or until we get the next two pinball machines in. Hey, somebody just did something. Stad Armstrong, welcome to the stream, and thank you very much for that follow. We are going to end this evening. We're here at level 4, a little over 3,000 XP. Thank you, everyone, so much. The engagement was off the charts, so appreciate it. It actually had a decent game of Mandalorian, despite the fact that the entire beginning of the game was just awful. But we're going to get there. We're going to get back to the, like, seven shots you have to complete before you can get to This Is The Way. Oh, man.
    117:39
    Homegrown. Perfect. Hey, there. Santa fans, welcome. We just got 12 raiders from Homegrown. Homegrown, I was just about to sign off and likely raid you. So, Homegrown, how was your stream? What were you streaming? We didn't actually get a question of the night. Self-processing welcome. Hi there. A dingo stole my baby Yoda. I like it. That's very Australian thematically Australian.
    118:12
    Thematically Australianly appropriate. We'll say that. We'll say that's okay. I don't know. Does that mean we've got to give it one more game?
    118:25
    That was a really long game. All right. We've got a bunch of Raiders that just joined us, so we'll throw one more in. Homegrown, thank you again.
    118:38
    Yeah, I'm good. I thought the dingo ate the baby, though. I mean, for the most part, I feel like I'm pretty good. I'm not upset by it. Oh, we lost a camera, too, so that was even better. We do need to realign, because there was a couple times where I feel like I moved the pinball machine into a different state. but Homegrown, how was your stream, and what did you stream this evening?
    119:05
    All right, we're going to do this. One more. Oh, you're just messing with me. Okay. All right, what are we doing right now? We can prep our multiball. We can go for the child.
    119:36
    There we go. We're going to get our freebie. Play it safe. We're going to do it again. More Elvira. Oh, man. How are you liking Elvira?
    119:57
    Because I really like that game. It's a game with a whole bunch of easy shots. It's a lot of fun. God, I would love to have that game.
    120:22
    I got to hit that. No, too much. Not good. Ooh, that had some spin. We're going to backhand it now. Got it.
    120:45
    Got that. No dank ferret spell processing. Felt good. Fell good. First mode done-zo. Dank, Farrakh. There's one. There's two.
    121:17
    It's fine. I didn't even want that. Easy only for George. Hey, Kirk Hobbs, welcome. Just back from my last work deliveries before Easter. Trying to fit five days into three is not easy getting ready for camping. I get that. That prep before a camping trip, by the way, I miss it. I'm ready for it because I got the camper van and season pass to Winter Park for the summer. I'm so jazzed and excited.
    121:54
    I really can't backhand that shot consistently. I mean, I also can't, for the sake of this, also forehand it.
    122:16
    Yeah! There it is. Darn it. Up there. Felt feisty tonight. It's a super early backhand, but more than that, it's got to be timed perfectly.
    122:44
    All right. Hit that right orbit. Got it. Looks like that is both a mode and an encounter shot.
    123:07
    We're on level three now. And let's try it again. Woo, somebody just did something. Hey, wow, Al Shrews 8. Welcome to the stream. Let's see here. And Pepper Bowen, hello. Beaches camping, so Sharks and Blue Bottles, singers. We here just have it all. there's something really scary about Australia, and it's all the animals trying to kill you.
    123:51
    Yeah, the spinner bricks it sometimes on the left all the freaking time. All right, bonus level. Got it. And yes. So we are going to bring a multiball into this. And Meta, if you're still on, I'm going to use the flamethrower as soon as we start this.
    124:37
    All the shots. Thanks, Ferrick. Oh no I don't care about you Super Jackpot I'm still going to deal with that Uh, what's a mode shot? It looks... Oh, no.
    125:32
    Looks like we have a lot of mode shots. There it is. Woo-hoo-hoo! I chanced it! All right. What else do we need? We need that shot, which is also lit. That multi-ball was horrific. You can tell.
    126:04
    And last shot. Got it. I'll take that one, too. There we go. Hard to see shots versus just flamethrowers. Scoop was just flamethrower. Deceive the magistrate.
    126:24
    May the force be with you. So we got one X going right now. We're on. We need a mission.
    126:40
    Ooh, that stunk. But we did get 200 Beskar for that, so I'll take it. You know what I can do, though? Now that we've stopped for a second.
    126:55
    Nope. Yeah, it's not easy. I'm not changing anything. And got a good payment this week, so life is good. Kirk Hobbs, I love hearing that.
    127:07
    Yeah. All right. We're fine, game. Quit it. Put it down. There we go. I have this feeling of relief that I've done all my work because I work on my own. No one else to blame. Hashtag smile. I love it. We have 484.
    127:44
    And you know what? We're going to go armor and whatever those things are. We're going to destroy the Imperial base. Yes.
    128:08
    Here we go. Imperial base is destroyed. That mode is done so. And I'm going for the child. We know how important this child is. 350.
    128:35
    So close. Oh, no. We're very vertical. But we're in a second encounter, so that's good. head better notice by the way once again we are not getting any extra ball like they've just taken away the extra ball that normally happens when you complete two missions and we're on ball three I love that little combo shot.
    129:24
    All right, we're on our last mission. Yeah, that's what I'm talking about. Weird, it thinks the ball's up there.
    129:50
    Now it's going to lock it in in vertical mode. We're at level three. Missed it by that much. We're going to go middle.
    130:07
    Obviously, we're doing that shot. Shoot the left scoop to defeat the Mudhorn. Got it. Mudhorn is defeated.
    130:30
    We're now ready for our mini wizard mode. So if anybody who is interested in seeing this... Hey, Wolfman, welcome.
    130:44
    Wow. Got it. And really, that went in and jumped right out. There we go. Mini wizard mode. Number, I don't know. I think we've done a bunch of them tonight.
    131:15
    I got a little bit of trouble. Cheers! No level 11 as of yet. Wolfman, but you can type in, hey, Kiwi Frenzy, welcome. I know it's hard to see the score right now, but it's $336 million. I gotta figure that out. I didn't realize it was blocking the scores in level four.
    131:51
    I was about to say, oh, but the thing you can do, you can now type in exclamation point level to see what your personal level is on the screen. All right. Phase one is done. We've got to do that again.
    132:20
    Same exact thing. We're going to go there, and then on the fly, hit the middle. Got it. And Jenga. There we go. Now we're into phase three, which is the multiball. This is the fun one. There you go. Homegrown, your level is the level one. So now the stream resets levels every stream, but we persist your personal level. and as your level increases, as you engage with the stream, at a higher level, your engagement creates more XP than others.
    133:09
    Not than others, but than someone at a lower level. Thank you. All right, two more. Beautiful. We're going to go right orbit, right orbit.
    134:19
    Again. Hey, Ryshask, welcome. With great power comes great responsibility. Found a bar on the way home that stays open until 2.30 a.m. I like it.
    134:39
    That's going to drink, which is fine. I think, does that take us out of the mini wizard mode? It does. We only scored 80 million. We're at 361 Beskar, and our missions are done. We can advance this to get into our next multiball.
    135:04
    And, oh no. There we go. There it is. Let me do it again. And that's... Yeah. What level is lower than one? A zero? Yeah, we have... No, everyone starts off at level one. Seems confusing. Like the rules of AIQ, It definitely is two different ways to generate experience.
    135:50
    God, I wish backhanding the right side was possible on the cabs around me. It is possible. It's just really, really tough. I think it would be easier if I pitched it a little higher. I think I have it at 7 degrees right now. And maybe if I throw it up to 7.2, I think it literally brings it more. It makes it more possible. 007 new code skillshot is now easier god that is a game I have thought long and hard about bringing into the home arcade here the more I spend time on it the more I like it but I have no idea if the rule set is going to be decent I just don't know what to expect at all but y'all thank you so much for hanging out homegrown thank you so much for that raid we got one more game in us and thankfully made it to another mini wizard mode, which is Dance Panda. What are you doing up? It's 1221.
    136:48
    Dance Panda just subbed, though. 15 months. Look at that. Self-processing. Thanks for hanging out. Ryshask, homegrown. Thanks again for that raid. If you met this man in real life, he can bench press a pinball game.
    137:03
    No. My PR was 225 recently, so that is not a pinball game. But hi. Yeah. Dance Panda, welcome. Never seen so many yellow lights. Yeah, there's, wait.
    137:19
    There is actually a lot of yellow lights behind us right now. Y'all, Pepper Bowen, have a great night. Scream, have a great night. I'll be back on Thursday this week.
    137:30
    And, yeah, let's go find someone to raid. See you guys. Are you familiar with the Pinball Network? If you're not, maybe if you just give me a moment to speak directly to you about what the Pinball Network is and what it could mean to you. The Pinball Network is a collection of content creators across multiple media. It's YouTube, that is podcasting, that is Twitch streams. Okay, I'm talking to you. And they do it out of the goodness of their beings, out of the goodness of their souls, out of the goodness of pinball to further pinball as a hobby and the community. That is the reason they do the things they do. They do it for you. So if you're not familiar with the pinball network, you should be. I suggest you check out all of those people who are a part of the network. You should give each of them a follow. If what you're interested in is soul-enriching pinball-related content, Thank you.
