🎵 Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Open your eyes, what can you see around? Winds of the open sky, over the stars and sounds This is a dream, getting the royal scar Holding a diamond blade, throwing it far Holding your breath still, you just define We'll just sit and wait until You've got it, then try to tell me you've got the wrong guy I got the wrong guy. Don't try to tell me you got the wrong guy. Let's see how this goes. Hi. Good evening. George Cottontail and the rest of his followers coming down the pinball trail. I went out tonight and got the prizes for my nieces and nephews Easter egg hunt. I got a mini boppet, a full-size boppet, a Simon and a larger box, which has 10 full-size theater boxes, a Sour Patch, bunnies. That's awesome. Dice, welcome. Tess Bishop, welcome. Iron Fox, welcome. And Spyro the Husky, welcome as well. Hi, everyone. How are things? How are you? Cheers. We made it. Sour. I agree. That's Bishop. Sour Patch is quality stuff. Man, I have eaten a lot of Sour Patch Kids, too. Dice. That sounds like you have set yourself up to become a successful uncle. Y'all have kids. Do they still play the Simon and Bop It? If they don't, let's make it a thing again. So Zoe has a Simon, and she played it for a while. She has never played Bop It. And I think those games could definitely make a comeback. It'll come in handy when they're mid-20s donors. I like it. I mean, that's accurate. It's a thing. So check us out. We're already at 50 XP. I did fix the command. So now, exclamation point level and exclamation point XP work. Codeman TV, welcome to the stream. And, oh, check that out. So we have a new level leader in the stream, Dice. So you can see in the middle right here. So on top of the fact that we have a stream leveling, we now keep track of individual leveling. And the individual leveling persists. and I mentioned last time I was going to do something kind of fun with that and here we have two different identified individual XP contributors and Aogden, yes, it is another Mando Knight. So the level leader is the person in the stream with the highest level right now. So level versus experience or honestly it just comes down to who has the most experience who's in chat. this is the way. And then the XP boss is the person who has generated the most experience for themselves so far tonight. So the XP boss is a label that is per stream and the level leader is who in the chat has the highest level. Yeah. Damn it feels good to be a gangsta. Exactly. I am going to enable sound from there and I think we're going to throw on some music here in a little bit. The other thing I could do is actually direct audio this sucker really quick. I'm going to do that. Man, my legs hurt. Yeet! Yeet! Yeet! Yeet! Yeet! Yeet! Yeet! Yeet! Yeet! Yeet! Yeet! Yeet! Yeet! Yeet! You never loved me, Mom. Pest Bishop just redeemed 500 XP for 10,000 redemption points. Aogden, how can you defeat the redemption boss? Ah, I forgot to add it to this. No, it's up there at the top. Great. So we're now level two. The stream aesthetics have changed, and we've got some more. Also, Iron Fox, on a three consecutive stream watch streak, congratulations. Don't panic. By the way, I hate you for showing me that. It plays in my head 500 times a day. Please tell me you went back and actually watched the whole skit because it's amazing. No, Iron Fox, I actually don't have a trigger available to me right now to trigger off of a watch streak. So I got to figure out how to do that and add it. but the question was how do you steal the XP boss? And you do that, you gain a point of XP for every level you are. So if you do exclamation point level, it tells you what your current level is. And then every time you chat, you gain an XP. Or you can spend points to redeem experience levelers. I think there's two different things you can redeem right now to increase the stream. and that similarly will increase your experience. And then as you increase your experience, you get to different levels. Yeah, so Planet 686 is current level. They're level one. Nine raiders have just joined from Pins and Pirates. Pins and Pirates, thank you very much. My hat's off to you. And you can see the stream XP going up there. So Pins and Pirates just got a bunch of experience for themselves, and they also helped the stream out a bunch. So you'll see, I think the timer on level leader and XP boss assessment takes roughly, it's something like every 15 seconds. It's like 15 or 20 seconds, I think, that you'll see those go through and recalculate. So pins and pirates, welcome to the stream. Thank you for bringing those nine beautiful individuals over. And if you are coming over from pins and pirates and pins and pirates out to you, what were you guys streaming this evening? Hopefully it was fantastic pinball. In fact, you said, here's more pinball. I'm assuming it was pinball. And we don't have a question of the night. Oh, man, you guys are playing Foo Fighters. Jelly. I have a premium on the way. It is not here yet. And another pin that is yet to be named out loud that is also on the way. We've been talking almost an hour to get to gameplay two-third of the last streams. and dice. We almost, you said that you would get a tattoo with me if we made it to This Is The Way, and we didn't. No, and Tess Bishop, I'll let you know, it's not Pulp Fiction, because I have a Pulp Fiction LE on order, and I was told it's going to be a long time. Pens and Pirates, thank you again. You get a double hats off. Bringing those nine raiders over. You have a great night. Get to bed, and we will see you around. Thanks again. All right, question of the night. Why do James Rees's eggs taste better than regular-sized cups? Interesting. I agree, by the way, that the eggs, for whatever reason you get from James Rees's, actually do taste better than the standard cups. Ah, waiting game for that. Yeah, Buddy ordered one as well. Yeah, I am in early on an le i think i'm getting at least one of the first couple ones from uh um uh sorry from flipping out pinball with zach i got i got in really early on that game i feel very confident i am i am low on his list um peanut butter and jelly foo fighters i gotta catch back up hardcore pin good evening and welcome um let's see here we've been talking yeah like 15 seconds isn't too significant of a delay for that calculation. And you know what? We're going to find out tonight what I didn't code correctly. And if it breaks, it breaks. Enjoy more pinball. Planet 886, welcome as well. And, oh, that's right. Planet 886, check their level. Aogden is also at level one. So you can do exclamation point level to pull back your level. and the level is what is used often as a multiplier or an addition. It's used to calculate out XP added to the stream. So as you level up, the things you do are worth more. It's like a weighting system. So you help the stream level faster as you increase in levels. But you can also check your experience by doing an exclamation point XP and actually see what your personal XP is as it increases after you do little things. So, also, if you think I didn't also buy myself a mini Bop-It, a full-size Bop-It, a Simon in 10 boxes of Sour Patch Bunnies, it must be your first time here. Nice to meet you. So, with PF and FF on order and Mando, is that your currently maxed on game? No, so I have one more game coming, which I really hope. There's a good chance it's going to be here on, like, Tuesday next week. So, one more game coming. I'm very excited about that. Hmm. and yeah, four games is my max here right now. Ooh, that's right. So I was on the fence. We're just going to keep chatting. I was on the fence because I really want, I wanted another game and I know Pulp Fiction is going to be a while. So I wanted four games and I was, it was like, it was causing anxiety because I didn't know what to get. Tracy from Outer Spacey, Welcome to the stream. More, more games. Planet 886, I'm not sure where you're at, but yeah, importing pinball machines anywhere is super expensive. Let's not end on a little secret. I'll be hanging out with George two weeks, looks left, looks right, from today. Yes. And Tracy, hello to someone who is currently at work. I hope you're having a fantastic evening. Ray Day Pinball, welcome to the stream. Ray Day, it was on the list. But to go back to Dice, yes, Dice will be here in two weeks. I get Thursday night, Friday, and a little bit of Saturday. So we've got, and I'm taking Friday off of work. By the way, Dice, I'm taking Friday off of work. So we've got Thursday night, there's going to be a very long stream. Alcohol will definitely be involved. Friday night, I might try and set up, since we have the day off, I might try and set up an actual drinking stream. And higher peanut, happy birthday. Congratulations. But going back to the question then about machines, so I was looking at a few. I really wanted a Spider-Man Vault Edition, and I jumped on it, and I'm like, I committed. That's it. I started making plans. I sent out the message like I want it. I got cash. I'm not even going to – I'm just going to – here, the cash on glass. I was ready to just slap it on the glass and be like, here, take my money. I want to take your game. And evidently he had sold it a week before. So that was fine. There was another one decently priced that was in Las Vegas. I happened to be going to Las Vegas for the Sick New World concert in May. And I pinged them. And they're like, they have never responded. I've sent them like eight messages. I'm like, okay, well, those guys are just jerks. I'm not working with them at all. And there was three games. Three games. I immediately, I'm like, okay, I had three backups. I'm ready to commit. I'm doing this, I'm doing this, I'm doing this. None of them bit. I eventually grabbed a different game, which was never on my list, and that's what's coming. So trying to decide what that fourth game is going to be, it was either going to be a Bond Pro. And rate it. As silly as it is to have sold my Rush LE, I was so on the fence. I'm like, I don't know that I want Bond, but I kind of want Rush again. And I'm okay with a pro. Like, I think as much as I really enjoyed the LE, I think the premium is probably the best value. But I think I'd be fine with a pro. So it was between that and a pro. And then I started considering other weird stuff. We were talking about it the other night. Like, maybe a Godfather. I just don't like the theme. And that's going to be yet another one. Oh, and also, let's see here. It's okay to admit you like Bond. You're not alone. We went through it together. Oh, no, Raid A. It was actually a thing. I'm like, I got there. I was done. I really enjoyed the game. It was actually being considered. But I went a different route. I actually didn't get a pinball machine. I ordered something completely different. So now I will have three pinball machines and another non-pinball machine taking up the space. It's the same size as a pinball machine, just to the right of the three pinball machines. And that, please tell me you got your first skee-ball. No, dice. I would have. Had I have thought about skee-ball at any point. Well, so this other thing, I really enjoy. You guys can see. I have arcade games. I play arcade games all the time. I know, hire Peanut. It was Ice Cold Beer was on the list. It was like first world problems. Like I have cash. I need to invest in some sort of a game. And I was experiencing such ridiculous anxiety for about two weeks as I was trying to figure out what to do, weighing the options. Like, I even brought back in the possibility of a motorcycle again. I'm like, God, it would be really nice. I'm in Colorado. Driving a motorcycle through the mountains is a fantastic experience, and it's great gas mileage. Anyway, ended up buying Wait a second Nope, not a Pachinko machine Tracing from Outer Spacey There is a sound Voltex for sale locally And it's dirt cheap right now I may end up getting that just because It's awesome Need to hit the fast forward button on the code Oh, so Rayday played Bond at MGC And man, it shot great It does feel really good The code needs to get there And the code is going to make or break that game Right? Like, I think I could be stupid for not getting the pro now because the price could start going back up if the code comes along. That is basically my thinking on Bond. But I went a different direction anyway. No, I got what's called a polycade. And it's something I actually tried to order during at the beginning of COVID. It hit. I'm like, okay, cool. I need something a little bit different from pinball because I think I had eight or nine pinball machines at the time. So I tried to buy a Polycade, and they said, well, take your money. And then a week later, somebody from the sales team got back to me and said, it's going to be a year. And, yes, Ray Day. It's like a MAME cabinet, but it plays Steam games is the thing. So it's an upright arcade, high-quality everything. and it is an upright arcade. It's their Retrocade from Polycade and it's another monitor that sits on top of it so that way people behind you can see what you're playing or in this case I'll end up utilizing that HDMI output to end up streaming it. That's Motorcycle George. He's always riding through the mountains at sunset. Some days it seems like he's almost... that's motorcycle George. Got it. I didn't realize he had to put the emphasis on the motorcycle George. Um, how was bond code able to make the player feel like they are in the world of bond? I'm curious if that was, is high priority test Bishop. Excellent question. Cause some games can do that. Right. Um, I've never played bond in a setting where I can really hear it. And I, The code has always been such a struggle so far. I have no feel for it whatsoever at this point. That said, the last time I played Bond was with Dice, and that was before they had allowed multiballs and modes to be played together. It is. It's basically a Steam Deck in arcade form. It is the opposite of a Steam Deck, yeah. I hope you like... No, and that's the other thing. I don't like... I'm okay with Bond. I love the artwork. I went from liking it despite the fact that a lot of other people didn't like it. So I went from liking it to I really like what they did. And now I really like the Bond Pro. The look of the Bond Pro is kind of fun. Hey, X, welcome to the stream. Drop in 100 bits. My hat's off to you. X, how is your evening? How are things going? And the question of the night that Dice posted earlier is, why do the James Rees's Easter eggs taste better than standard James Rees's peanut butter cups? Oh, yeah, I've definitely heard the Craig Bobby, the dum-dur-dum-dum-dum-dum, that thing. He does it very, very well. But, yeah, Dice, to reiterate, if you check out Polycade's Retrocade 2 is the actual thing that I picked up. which I should have in a month as long as they don't have a part shortage again. I had to talk to the salesperson three times because I kept running to issues on the website when I tried to order it, and then I got a little concerned. I'm like, well, wait a second. How is the company doing if you're having issues with your website? But evidently they're doing just fine. And, yeah, it's basically a giant Steam Deck. Where has the pinball show been? Dice, I agree. Where have Zach and Dennis been? I know Zach did so many things all at once, right? He put out, I want to say, four videos. It was two straight down the middle videos and two, like, marketing videos that he did a superb job of for Jersey Jack Pinball and CGC's Pulp Fiction. The Pulp Fiction video, man, was amazing. And I'm just thinking they took a break. Between that and I think they also simultaneously put out two podcasts in two weeks, that's a lot of work while still also maintaining your pinball-related job. Catching back up, somehow better chocolate to peanut butter ratio. X, I like what you're thinking there. um hot take uh James Rees's isn't great well James Rees's pieces I feel like are great I'm not I'm not against James Rees's pieces by any means but I'll take James Rees's peanut butter cups and the only reason the peanut butter vaguely fits is U.S. peanut butter is full of sugar interesting higher peanut does a James Rees's peanut butter cup have less sugar in it in Australia because peanut butter has less sugar in it. Did the TPN website go down out of curiosity? If not able to comment, it's fine. Not that I know of. The TPN website should be up. I'm going to go check it. Nope, website's still up it's thepinball.network that's the that's the website it's getting much more difficult to buy new in-box machines and arcade games from them at 812-457-9711 late at night and on weekends, let alone a soon-to-be-robust library of used pinball machines at arcade games. Dice. So here's the thing. The last time I talked to Zach, he's like, do you have any idea? Like, people call me at 1 or 2 in the morning. And he said it, and it was at the end of a long thing. I looked at him, and he looked at me, and I'm like, oh, no. Yeah. We have been successful. I feel like at this point despite the fact that Zach is at a point where he doesn want to get work calls late at night and on weekends we need to double down No no Dice we doubling down Let make sure that if you going to call Zach you do it late at night and not weekends That way he knows that they came from our stream. Yes. Let's see here. Tess Bishop hasn't been able to access it for weeks now. We don't get them at all unless you import them. It's more of a general peanut butter doesn't actually go well with chocolate at all if you use actual peanut butter. Okay, higher peanut. I don't even know. I can't sympathize with that statement. I've never had non-sugary peanut butter because I am from the U.S. Tess Bishop just got access denied. Oh, interesting. I wonder if you're trying to access it with HTTPS by any chance? Because the certificate died. You have to access it without a secure channel now. I could just rebuy the certificate. Oh, that's a different website. So the one I was talking about was the pinball.network. Wait, I don't want to click that. I want to see what happens when you click that. I don't think we own that domain name. Yeah, don't follow that link. Holier than thou peanut got some hot peanut butter tanks. It's our way of showing love. We trust him, even late at night and on weekends. Yeah, dice. I suggest at this point, once again, we double down. We're going to do that. Laser, los. Oh, I get it. He's higher and peanut. Peanut. I didn't really catch the fact. Wait a second. Yeah, honestly, I just think of you as higher peanut. I literally, even though I said it a dozen times recently, didn't catch the fact that you have peanut in your name. You don't like, wait, do you like Australian peanut butter? Or are you higher peanut in referencing American peanut butter? High on his throne, peanut. Okay, so Test Bishop, it used to be active. I don't know. I'll let the TPN administration team know that they may have lost that domain name. There was no thought put into the name. I was 11 and needed a name for RuneScape. But to confirm, it isn't just that do you hire peanut, just that way everybody is aware all at once. What are your thoughts on peanut butter? I feel like we need a solid peanut butter sucks, but American peanut butter is good, or you don't like either, or you're going to take the high road of peanut butter is what Australians have, what Americans have is sugary stuff, and out of principle, maybe you don't like the sugary stuff. Lower peanut. Thepinballnetwork.net slash feed.xml. Interesting. Okay. Okay, that then, Tess Bishop, if that link works, that's a bug. Now, I don't manage that website. Actually, I don't do anything with the podcast, but I'll still make a note and send it off to the admin team. So Amanda, Dennis, David, and Zach can take a look, and somebody can get that fixed. Hardcore Pin likes peanut butter. What was that? Hey, AceKiller231227, welcome to the stream. Thank you very much for that follow. So, let's try these two and see what they do. Oh, Dice dropping the Discord. If you want to join the pinball community Discord, you're more than welcome to click that link. You can jump in. We are two people away from 300 people on that Discord. And I must let you know ahead of time, if what you're looking for is 100% pinball-related talk, you are going to be very unsatisfied with that Discord, where we talk about a lot of things. like today. Dice, what was it that you brought up about, it was some sort of a salmon flavored food in the food channel. Peanuts plus butter equals peanut butter. I agree. Now there is a lot of sugar added to our peanut butter here. Higher peanut. Peanut butter needs three ingredients, peanuts, salt, possibly an emulsifier. None of that is sugar. But higher peanut, I understand how what we eat maybe isn't technically peanut butter, but have you had Jiffy? And are you saying that you don't like American Jiffy peanut butter? Or are you saying it's just not peanut butter and it should be labeled something else called like peanut sugar, peanut sugar butter or something? Like it should be a name entirely different. And if it was named something entirely different, would you feel comfortable saying that you like it? Oh wait, nevermind the link, lower peanut. I'm behind over here. Oh my God, higher peanut. I want those tuna pop tarts. Nope, nope, I'm good. Don't need it. Did anyone make peanut butter in elementary school? I remember just crushing peanuts in oil and we felt like mad scientists. I have never made peanut butter. If what you're looking for is George reacting to the miracle of tuna fish pop tarts with tartar sauce. Oh my God. Huh. There's a part of me like you say that and I have to imagine it. And then in my mind, I am such a, I have problems with texture and I have since I was a kid. So in my mind, that frosting is not going to have the, the, the, the like slick hard coating of standard sugary frosting. Instead, it's my mind, it's bumpy. I think of it kind of like a popcorn ceiling is what that would taste like. And it makes me want to throw up a little bit. Just a little bit. Choose your mom's juice, Jif. Join anyway. We've got other channels too, and those probably won't have that. Jif is dish cleaner here with the sugar. Are you sure that wasn't Play-Doh? Interesting. We did make Play-Doh. Ray Day asking if Lowe's is chilling tonight. Lowe's is taking a night off. Los, still the hardest working pinball streamer in all of pinball. By the way, we have a bunch of other streamers on tonight while we're on this note. Make sure you click Rayday Pinball and follow Rayday. Make sure you click Laser Los and follow Laser. Make sure you click Tracy from Outer Spacey and make sure you are following Tracy. You can also follow I Only Seek Eurydice. We are going to get Dice to start streaming more often because he's hilarious. and I feel like I'm missing others. If I am missing somebody, I'm scrolling up looking for other people I know stream, go ahead and shout yourselves out. Actually, now that I think of it, I don't think I have a shout out command anymore because I had to rebuild streamer bot from the ground up. I am so behind. And I've been focusing so much on the experience portion. I dumped about three hours into getting the level leader XP boss and the other fun thing. All right, non-spoiler, for those who have gone to see a Super Mario Brothers movie, we can also take that to Discord. We have a movie channel. Dice, thank you for really pushing that Discord. I thought all Play-Doh was edible. I mean, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger, right? I did. Dice, you mentioned seeing it and you thought it was awesome. I bought late tickets. I bought tickets last night to go see it and also tickets on Sunday to take Zoe to go see it. Zoe saw it tonight, and I saw it last night from 10 until midnight. I thought it was great. I adored the Super Mario movie. I was grinning from beginning to end. I thought it was awesome. They could have really dropped the ball on that easy, and instead they made a fun movie. Jack Black is fantastic. and I can't wait to clip the peaches, peaches, peaches, peaches. I want that song and I want it redeemable. Ray Day was also grinning for him. You should have been because, oh, my God, Donkey Kong was in it. And on top of that, the only knock I have on the movie is that they, like, quadrupled down on Seth Rogen's weird laugh in that movie. Like, it was, they literally had fade scenes where they show them driving into the distance, and it's just Seth, Seth Rogen, Seth Rogen's, that, like, choking laugh. I'm not, I'm not spoiling. We all knew that he was in it. I'm just saying they doubled down. Thank you, though, for the reminder. You gave me a really like, oh, my God, I didn't just spoil anything, did I? Cool. Yes, we're stopping. I am not the person to tell secrets to. Just FYI. Like, true story, we were coordinating a surprise birthday for my friend Mike about 10 years ago. And I've told this story. Thanks, Dice. We were planning a surprise birthday party for my buddy Mike. And this is actually I'm old. This has got to be closer to 15 years ago. And and I have this thing where I don't like people not being invited. So as I'm reviewing the emails that are going around with, like, this person's going to bring this, this person's going to bring this, I'm looking at the list. I'm like, man, there's somebody missing. I know there's somebody missing. And it's like we've got 20-odd people showing up for this party. And at some point I realize I'm like, oh, my God, Mike's not on this list. So I send him the email about his surprise birthday party. that's I remember when 2003 was 20 years ago exactly a Ogden so that's the kind of stupid stuff I do I cannot I can't purposely keep a don't talk about something in my head which is why we're not going to talk about Mario anymore because I will I will just start talking about it and not realize that I'm spoiling it so we're not going to spoil by not talking about it thank you dice i remember yeah it was in third grade i had uh i graduated high school in 2000 all right let's switch this over nope there we go um um nope it's not there it should be there i do i was in the third grade where is it it should be there there's oh there it is at the bottom i was looking at the wrong thing so the other fun thing i got working today is if you just the next time somebody chats check the stream xp at the very at that's not how you do this at the very bottom there you go there's that little plus two for chatting so there's there's a there's a little there's a little moving thing that lets you know that the XP is incrementing and going up. That was a magical time for lunch trading. You needed at least three packs of Gushers for one snack pack. Yes. Iron Fox. Oh, by the way, the fact that it was plus two when Dice posted, that's because he's level two. So when you hit level two, your chats are now where to experience. I don't know why they put the emphasis on experience, but But, no, I did not say, hey, Aogden just redeemed a Don't Panic Bridge shirt. Notifications are coming for more and more redemptions. And on top of that, redemptions will be enabled and disabled based on the level that the stream is currently at. But, Aogden, thank you very much for that redemption. Using up all those amazing points. Experience. I used to know it. Nice. Go ahead and take a point, Higher Peanut. But, A.R. Din, hit me up on Discord. I think you're on the Discord. So hit me up with a direct message on Discord. If I'm misremembering and you're not on Discord, hit me up with a direct message on Twitch. Let me know. Just remind me that you ordered a shirt. I will then respond to your message with the super secret code and a link to how you can order it from Silver Ball Swag. There you go. and dice showing off the merch, which is funny because the redeemable shirt that just happened is not a T-shirt you can buy. Somebody just did something. Waxed Playfield 14, thank you very much for that follow. And we're getting close. We're, I think, seven XP away from level three. Seven. I think it's at 1,500. Maybe I'm making that up. I totally did not see, nor did I get the, keep it friendly. That's awesome. Everyone figured out how to hack the system. I haven't developed a, like, you didn't say the magic word, checking. Just five more messages. Oh, and look, the little plus one. That took a lot more effort than you can imagine. To make that little plus one happen, that took like an hour to dial in the whole, like it moves up a little bit and and and fades out it was yeah that was getting close to that more like tell them about the streamiversary in two weeks that i told you nothing about yet george all right so i i obviously need to go back and add some more but that was the previous aesthetics and now we are at level three you can see all the way up at the top we're at level three we're still keeping track of the xp down at the bottom and now when we go to something like chat it's a totally different look now what's cool is level three i know you guys we did it we did the thing level three is fun but level three uh isn't a milestone upgrade so uh There are certain levels are what we consider milestones, and milestones change something significant about the stream. Hey there, WaxPlayfield14. Welcome to the stream. Yeah, yeah. Like, I don't know. It was fun. It's been fun to jump in there. StreamerBot is great because I'm a .NET developer, and basically anything I'm not sure how to do or maybe it seems like it's difficult, I just now dump a bunch of C-sharp code and have it run and do everything in C-sharp code. And then once you figure out the scoping of everything as to how StreamerBot works, it's actually really powerful. It is a very cool application. So now StreamerBot is how we're managing both stream experience and then individual user experience. It bubbles. It works. We did it. Oh, and also Dice commenting on the fact that we have five years of streaming. Five years on, I'm going to say that the big party will be April 21st. So that's when Dice is out here, and we're going to have some fun. Let's just leave it at that. We are definitely going to have fun. Y'all, we're coming up on George's streamiversary, and I've got him cake. No, it's not a tuna fish cake. It's gluten-free. Wait, but Dice, is it dairy-free? and I've got more surprises afoot. Okay, I'm excited. I know five years is ridiculous. Now, here's the coolest thing. I'm so sorry, we got to go back to chatting. I went from being a developer to being a... Streaming is really, really tough. But what makes it kind of cool about streaming is that there's nobody here. I know that I'm chatting with you. And I started this as a way to like chat and talk with people at 1030 at night because it was 1030 to 1230 after my family at that time had gone to sleep. Right. I was home alone by myself. I don't sleep that much. So I'm up really, really late. And it's crazy. Over like three or four years, I've gotten pretty decent at speaking publicly, which has made a huge impact on like where my career has gone because of that. So, you know, five years, it's a really big difference. Despite the fact that I look like a dork, I feel confident in being a dork speaking publicly now at like business events. Growing and learning. Yeah. I believe I've been here for three of your years, if not four in October. The plague we had kind of made me lose track of time. Ow! Okay, good. I'm so glad somebody else has been able to see and hear that. Oh, hey, we just got a subscription. Planet886, thank you very much for that sub. My hat's off to you. That's going to bring, wow, I forgot those subs are worth a lot of experience. We're, I think, quickly approaching level four here. Oh, Jesus. Planet886, welcome again. Not only did you sub, but you just gifted five tier one subs. My hat's off to you. Thank you. Thank you so much. That is so awesome. And on top of that, you got us over the 3,000 XP threshold. So we hit level four. And now you can see in level four, we have a completely different aesthetic. We've also added a new camera. And despite, actually, I forgot to turn on Roboctopus again. Darn it. I'm going to go turn on Roboctopus. That was the other thing that happens now. we'll get there. George will finally get his stuff together one of these days. All right. There we go. Oh, of course. So, Planet 886, thank you again. And, yeah, now there's also sub... Oh, wait. Yeah. It was the... No pinball. Yeah, we don't play pinball until we get to level four, which is interesting. But now you can see at some point here, I think the XP boss has to switch. Or I broke something. Remember, we just introduced the level leader and XP boss. I don't know, though. I don't... That would be... It has to be doing something. Ha! What just happened? What is that? Explanation point level. Yeah, Planet 886, your level is supposed to be a lot higher. Oh, man. I think we just broke it. Dice just gifted, oh, my God, 10 tier one subs. Evidently, I didn't test out 10 subs. Like, that would, wow. Dice, my hat's off to you. That 10 does not evidently, I don't even know what to do with that. Also, how is a hype train close with 10 gifted subs? And Dice is level two. Kiwi Frenzy, level five. Here we come. Ready or not. I don't understand. Man. So you're helping identify bugs. It's good. It's good. It's good. It's good. Oh, my God. Planet 886. evidently I don't have a trigger to catch 10 subs I'm guessing I only programmed in a 5 pack Planet 886 that was much rejoicing yeah there was much rejoicing hold on here let me write down so 10 subs did not trigger XP. How do we not have a 10 sub category, though? Twice. Two times. Subbration. This is, it's weird. The hype train says it's close, but that also didn't trigger. Catch up to my lifetime sub and we'll talk. So, Planet886, thank you again. Well, make sure to say thank you to Planet886 for those gifted subs. And X, LambDiggityDangDog, which is such a great name, Pepper Bowen, TK24601, Bodega Justice, TheEvilIsBackMagneto, JLandVinnieBlank, Dalton Pinball. Also make sure to say thank you to Dice for those gifted subs as well. You are both fantastic. Thank you. I got to scroll down over here. I promise we are going to play some actual pinball, but I think it's just the 10 subs aren't triggering. But are you familiar? Not what I meant to play. Man. Two seconds. I feel like I had a 10-sub catch. It's weird that it didn't catch it. Checking. Six through ten. Platforms, events, sub, gifted sub. You see the hat? I am Mrs. Nesbitt. Okay. Six to 11 range sub milestones. I don't know. Yep. So there's a six to 11 range. That's where it stops right now. And so I have one, I have two, three, four, five, and then I do six to 11 and then 11 to 50 or something like that. and the grouping doesn't catch. I'll never stop saying I wish they had a gift-a-sub, get-a-sub program, like you'd get 20-something subs on your doorstep because of this. Oh, my God. Well, they did do a thing with Subway at one point, gift-a-sub sandwich, get-a-sub sandwich, and I completely agree. That would be super cool. So let's get a game in. We're an hour into the stream, and we have yet to actually play pinball. I think I know what's going on, though, with the sucks. I think a grouping is not triggering appropriately. Oh, that's right. We have direct audio. I forgot about that. It's blowing my mind that the music for the game is playing in my ear. Don't know why. Let's do that. Somebody just did something. That was Suicide Hair. Welcome to the stream, and thank you very much for that follow. All right, so we got the child, and we lit Hunter. That's suboptimal right now. That we lit Hunter. That seems a bit premature to me. I guess we want to get into our multiball and then use the Hunter. I'm assuming that's going to stay lit. Subway, no. Firehouse subs are where the good food is at. It's weird. I've probably had maybe 100 to 200 Subway subs in my lifetime. I just like Subway. I can't eat it because of the gluten stuff, but I still really like Subway. What do we need? It looks like we need the right ramp. Wow. 2023, we've got the child. I don't know why, but that reminds me of I want the lamp. No, it's the knife. I want the knife, please. I see what I did there. There's a cable in front of that lens. There we go. Got it out of the way. George, their bread is legally cake with the sugar content. All right. I see we've got another peanut butter hater. Up and around All right Reflexes need to get just a little bit better And they cut it weird, or they used to. I agree. They do... Do they do the halfway thing? I used to like the one where they would cut, slice, and slice, and take the middle off. And then they put stuff here so it laid flat. And then they put that piece back on. because then I would get them to, I said, gut the bread when they did that, where they would grab all the actual meatiness of the bread and rip it out, so all I had was the crust. All right, we're fine. We're fine here. Just make your own Poke Bowl. Honestly, I have been making my own Poke Bowls recently. All right, encounter. We're already on ball three, though. This feels like a throwaway game. Sounded like the door opened there. The wedge cut, I remember. I, yeah, I also distinctly, oh no. Distinctly remember the wedge cut. Um, there's that. What? Oh man, we defeat the crate dragon, huh? I hate how often that rejects. There's one. That'll count. That's good. Now we need the other side. I'm going to go there. We've got a mission. Oh, man, the sounds. Oh, no. The sounds from the Krayt Dragon episode were fantastic, by the way. We just lost the playfield. We'll get there. We'll get there. That's a few times now you've mentioned the door sounding like it's opening or closing. I could bring my ghost hunting stuff from back in the day. You go ahead and bring your ghost hunting stuff. Firehouse Subs is definitely better. I will never go back to Subway due to multiple very bad disgusting experiences. I get that. It's fast food, and it's not even great fast food. I'll take Jersey Mike's at this point over Subway. What do we need? Oh, yeah, we can do this. We do the thing. What is it? Plastic Fantastic. That I... I hate that. No, I'm not... That is not the kind of game that we're going to start off with. Oh, no, Jerky Mice is just Jimmy John's smothered in oil. Sounds about right. No, but their bread is better. And, okay, here's the reason I really like Jimmy John's. They have a gluten-free bread option. There you go. I don't know why I had to go to that scene to get us there. Just going to do that again. And Jenga. Um, Planet886 agrees Jersey Mike's is the best. I'm a fan, honestly. Like, I get their Italian, I do a mini Italian with jalapeno chips. All right, what do we want to do? We want to bring in a multiball. All right, let's try that again. And multiball. Got it. What would it be like to hit a shot? I mean, That was a great super jackpot because that multiball was just played fantastically. Let's see here. I'm biased. I grew up next. Oh, wow. Next to the original Jersey Mice. I'll use my one gif up on a soapbox. What the actual have happened to Quiznos? That is a really good question, Dice, because there is a Quiznos here in Windsor just outside of Fort Collins. and that is the only Quiznos I have seen in a while. Like, they just disappeared off the face of the earth. Dice, we have a Quiznos here in Austin. Quiznos, awards for the funniest thing. It's like misjudging where the ball is going right now. This is good. Spyro, Jersey Mice isn't bad It's better I would say it's better than Jimmy John's But I'm biased It's going to give you that one back Up and around Can we do the cool little shot there? Get up there! Get up there! That is 405 Beskar. Let's go ahead and grab those guys. Are we going to get a mode? I believe we are. Shoot right ramp for extra points. Or not. I'm just going to do that again. Hey, PiratePwnsNinja, just increase our XP by 100. Apparently I'm out of drink. Me an hour ago was a douche for not making more. I like Safeway Sammy's myself. Says, test Bishop. Interesting. I don't know that I've ever had a Safeway sandwich before. Um, you need... Oh, no. Uh, we can get back... Oh, wow, we just got 200 more Beskar, so we can get back into the foundry. I'm going to go there. Wow, that was very early. There we go. What? Any Wawa fans in the house? What is Wawa? Now I need to know. Wawa versus... I am not following any of that. Man, I... I really need to remember that it takes me a while to get warmed up. All right, we got our two shots in there. We're ready to hit the foundry and get back into a multiball. Somebody just did something. Hey, Eric Cartman 80, welcome to the stream. Thank you so much for that follow. We're going to hit an encounter. This is our first. we're now in our second level third level we made it through two levels there, I'll take it and our foundry is still open this is for the third mission so I do actually have to hit that shot get in there I can't post transfer in this if you're wondering why I'm not backhanding every shot this machine does not post transfer we got a multiplier I love doing the question mark by the way I don't remember who recommended that but it was a great idea And now we're in the mode, so we can go... Hey, the evil is back. Welcome. So wait a second, what was Wawa? Wawa is the Philly thing. Okay, got it. But evidently, it is absolutely amazing. All right. Game 2.awesome We're gonna get there We're gonna do the thing eventually There's one There's two It's really weird That I missed that Two rejects Ooh. Play a game where you only try post passes. Dr. Curly Tech, done. We might be able to dial it in. There's one. All right. Post transfer number one. There's a double. So what I could do is that I'm going to try a slow post-transfer. Shoot the right scoop shoot the right ram. The right scoop? What is going on here? Hit that shot, man. Shoot right orbit. shoot left ramp. I'm going to shoot... Oh, no. That was not necessary. Screw with the right ramp. There. There. Alright, alright. Fargo pinball. Welcome to the stream. Uh, let's see here. Wow, missed that one entirely. But we did complete a mission. We are on ball one, so I'm going to go there. There we go. There's that. And Jenga. There we go. I guess that's how we can do a post-transfer. We just hit it up the middle. It is... So, yeah. Dr. Curly Tech, it just, like, it just doesn't work. I'm going to do the armor. Because it does add a lot of ball save time. Not what I was intending to do there. Let's go middle. And there's middle. So now we're in a multiball. I'm going to light all the shots. They are definitely all lit. I held that the entire time. We're going to get that back. I kind of forgot I had a ball up top. That is like the... It's going to hurt. Whatever, I'm letting it go. What do we need to do? Oh, jetpack. We can get an add-a-ball there. So I'm going to try and be patient. All right, we got one. It's fine. We're going to go back. Do the same thing. Move back. Move back. You do your thing. Make it easy on me. One more. One more. Can you guys see? Yeah, okay, good. You can see it. Move back. Come on. Give me that shot. Give me good shot. Good shot. Good shot. Yeah, that's what I'm talking about. Darn it. Just fine. All right, got it. I don't actually know what that was. How much was it? 93 on the super jackpot. I'll take it. I'll take it. Let's see here. I have not been able to play Scooby-Doo. Sorry, the chat was stuck. Blimpy, man, Blimpy is another one, which was essentially Subway. But Blimpy's just died as well. What do we have? 247 best crowd. That's enough for a question mark. Let's see what we can get. Santa plus Army of Elves have to save the North Pole from Ghidorah. Final showdown with Big Toy Mecha. Oh, my God. Is that a, what is that called? That is a, I'm guessing a Godzilla Christmas movie. Extra ball, extra ball, extra ball. Oh my God, we're at a 6X on the play field multipliers? Uh-huh. I don't know how much that was just a minute ago, but that wasn't nothing. That was pretty decent. Oh, my gosh. Quit jumping out of that hole. Let's see here. We can call it King of the North. It's your world, .9431. We've got enough people in here. Real question of the night. Say that Easter Bunny and all other holiday figures were real, but so were the kaiju monsters. Which fight do you want to see who and to whom? Interesting. That's where that came from. Got it. All right. Oh, wow. We did something. Oh, the 6X is still running. There it is. Shoot the left scoop. And I don't know what that's going to be worth. What was that, 60 million at the 6x? That's pretty awesome. And we tilted. It's fine. It was going right down the middle anyways. I was trying to hit the hunter target so that way I could get back into multiball with that 6x. Yeah. 6x full encounter and bonus. A few points. It was a few. Not bad. Up to 588 from where did we start at like 200. Once again, you know what bothers me is we never get prompted for extra balls anymore. I don't know what happened. Two and... Give me that back. All right, we're going child. Or not. Why? I don't understand what that is getting jammed up on. I hit that shot perfectly. That shot rejects almost as much as the Captain Marvel ramp. three bonus multipliers. I'm so happy I got that. And we're ready for our mission. Yes, we actually broke a bill on it last night, I think. and then we walk the plank on that wonderful statement going into ball two. I'd say Cupid and Mothra. Easy to break down the membrane of the wing down with ranged shots. Okay, thinking about that for a second. You've got Santa Claus versus Godzilla or something like that. That's got to be worth something. Oh, wow. Yeah, I think it's 4,000. Now, we are so far past that. The only reason we're not already at level 5 is because the 10, that's the first time I think we've ever seen two 10-packs of subs come through, and we didn't have anything set to trigger. So, yeah, I think we're, I think we're, we should be well past that. And on top of that, it didn't trigger, I think, the appropriate XP saves. So the XP boss is either not calculating or something along those lines. Because Test Bishop is still showing as the XP boss right now, which is fine. It just means, oh, that's right, I got to get that. Hey, hey, hey, hey. You never loved me, Mom. There we go. We are in. We are at level five. We achieved it. Maximum levels for tonight. The goal is to try it. At some point, there will be ten levels, and we'll redistribute all the XP and everything. But we did it. Everyone, my hat's off to the stream. Thank you. Not calculating. As expected. Let's see. I'm going back up. I'm stuck in the high 600s. Thank you. skirt. I love that clip. It got stuck in my head. So whoever else talked about that being stuck in their head, it, uh, yeah. Um, it's a thing and it's trying to figure out, I don't know enough of like the, the, the, the bad guy Kaiju, uh, at this point, but there is a part of me that wants to see, uh, that wants to see a giant Santa Claus, like, beating the heck out of a Godzilla style, like, sized kaiju. I just, I think that would be great. Like, a giant red cape, uh, and, and getting blasted, and, and him trying to catch it, and, like, he takes off his hat and catches the power blast from Godzilla in the hat, or he jumps down like he's just landed from a chimney or something like that, and he's got the sack over his back and then just destroys Godzilla with his present sack. I think that would be cool. um twilight zone thank you boss favorite pinball machine twilight zone because of the layout theme and flow i can't i can't knock you for any of that twilight zone is a really fun game best use well test bishop if you think that is a good use of of magnets in a game you should check out the child up top we'll get there Up and around and... There it is. All right, we're on our last mission. We're on our second level of encounters. We do need to get back into Razorcrest. Stacked. Let do it again There it is And skirt. Really? Really? Got it. Can we do it again? Shoot the right target, huh? I don't know what that means. Shoot target. What target? Okay. Now we're ready to go here. Four more for Razorcrest. Two. Three. Really? And Oh, did we get out of our mode? We did. I guess let's pull in the Razorcrest, because we can't really use it to complete a mode at this point, so kind of useless. Best use of magnets. Oh, that was the... Oh, we're going to get to the child. Yeah, I do want to show the child. Thank you. Thank you. All right, we got one. One. And. Oh! There's a third one there. Ah, evidently. We can get up and around there. You missed. Let's see. Oh, the target was the flappy green razor crest. I got you now. I understand. All right, so we need that last hunter target. I'm going to see if I can bank it from the hunter target into the foundry. The fact that I was even slightly close. The fact that it even kind of made it there, I feel like is awesome. What do we have, 488? I don't care about the multipliers. Didn't want it. Don't need it. What do we need here? We can get into the mini wizard mode. We are on ball three. We still haven't gotten our extra ball yet. How much crap is that? Got one. And we're ready for our mini wizard mode. All right. We're doing the thing. Let's see. I mean, for funsies, let's see if we can crack a bill. All right. Two phases, and then you get to a multiball in the third phase. There's that. There's that, and... There's that. All right, first phase is done, four shots. Now, same thing again for phase two. up and around hit the middle see if I can hit that right ramp got it to left scoop got it alright phase two is done Now we're in the multivolts. Hey, Dan Panda, welcome to the stream. Just popping by to say 99s are in. Great game. Thank you. Three shots left. There's that. There's that. Oh, my gosh. Hit that one shot. Oh, no. That was such a waste. Oh, wow, we have 6X running. Oh, my God, just hit the shot. Got it. Got it. Whistling birds. Nice. I think that was, yeah, that was like 400 million. So I think this is kind of a victory lapse right now because the shoot again is going all over the place. All right. And we're going to do that. And around. Yeah, we're in victory laps. It just said, and we're at our 6x. Okay. we're cool. Hitting this right orbit. No, I'm not. Whatever. Am I going to get a super jackpot out of that? Nope. That was pretty awesome. Hey, Dance Panda, have a great night. Yeah, you should probably log in. You're not, you're, I think you're, I think you're correct. I don't understand why I still have 6x right now. Grr. We do need a hunter. Oh, that sucks. All right, I've got to time this. That's right. You've got to wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. You've got to wait for it to go back. There we go. Good. Yeah, give it to me. Wow, somebody just did something. And we completed encounter level two. We're good. Hey, Dance Panda just dropped 100 bits. Dance Panda, you are fantastic. Thank you. Our 6X is... Why is our 6X in perma something? Let's see. I'm going to get some... Hey, Dice, get some sleep. I didn't realize that was the secret to that. What is going on? I also have a lot of best card right now, so I could get an extra ball. I got nothing. Okay, that's finally timing out. That felt inappropriate somehow. What do we need? We need more encounters. I need those. Somebody just, Dance Panda, cheering another 100 fits. Dance Panda, thank you. My hat's off to you. Welcome. What do I need to do to get into the foundry? I got nothing here. Up and around. Up and around. All right, we've got Hunter Lit. We need to hit this right orbit, which I have been really struggling with tonight. Now I need to get the ball back. Around. Up and around. Let's see if we can hit that right. Orbit. Nope. Going to try it again. Up and around. Tense Panda just cheered again. Oh, my God. Get in there. Got it. What are you doing? Eh. I just saw your thought, Rayday. Oh, yes. Yes, permission granted. I'm so sorry. I grand champed. I don't know. I'm assuming you can't log in now. Wow. Dice is... Wow, and you had to go with another off. Yeah, I just have to have one that gets us to like 15 for every single one. That was much rejoicing. And there was much rejoicing. Dice gifting six tier one subs. Gwargles, Scotty, MacJedi, Uncle Ecstasy, Edge of the World, Knee Kick Lou. You guys, please make sure to say thank you. to Dice for the gifted subs. Who are we giving? This is going to Dice. Dice, what are your initials? I know it's L something E. You are the GC. There we go. Dice, you got the GC. And yeah, Ray Day. That was the longest I've ever seen 6x run. It was just, I don't know how that happened, but however that happened, I imagine that's got to be a thing going forward. Wow. Well, I guess until the bug gets fixed. But that was a decent number of points. On top of that, I was an idiot, and I accidentally activated my 2x when there was no, or the fire thing, when there was no shots. So it should have been 12x on all of those shots. Dance Panda, dropping the bits. Thank you. It's 1144 right now. You should be sleeping, but my hand's off to you as well. Thank you. Traded all the extra balls for 6x power. No extra balls that entire game. There used to be an extra ball that was given at ball two, or when you completed the second mission and it just doesn't do it anymore. I don't know what happened. Oh, Spyro commenting, you should be able to log in. All good. Let's just do it again. We'll do it again. There's one. CNK, welcome to the stream. and we're in. First mode started. Okay. And now we're going to go multiball. Houston, we have a problem. Hey, so check this out. Dice, type in exclamation point switch theme. So mods, when I make that mistake, mods can just switch the theme for me. Yeah. When does Grogu die? dice can do things now, exactly okay, light all the shots they are all lit I held it the entire time now let's see if we can shoot shots Evidently we cannot shoot any shots All right, we're cool. Now we're going to go... We're in pirate multiball. Go for the spinner! Uh... Sure. Oh. Oh. Hey, we found the asset, though. I really like it when there is something hidden in a game, and it's random as to where it is. I don't know why I like that so much, but I like it in Stranger Things. I liked it in... I feel like there was another game recently. Like, was one of the modes in Rush? No, there's no modes in Rush where it's hidden. There's one. Two. That was very dirty. And three. Booba feet. I want baby Jar Jar. Where is... Boba Ferd. Okay, I've got ten cedar boxes with Sour Patch Bunnies. I need to make this fair. Oh, this is the one where I shoot right scoop. What is the right scoop? Deceive the Magistrate. Let's start an encounter. Did you ever have to find your Easter basket? I never did. I can't believe I missed it. That's not good. Goose-rava. The game is not... The game doesn't dislike you. Oh, crap. We don't get... We don't get him anymore. That's right. We're on our third. Okay. So... Let's do that. I think that was a double. that did not trigger up the slaying the way I was obviously expecting it to do we'll see what happens we'll see oh wow alright cool cool cool cool cool cool no doubt no doubt like where the game's head is at there's one there's two sure whatever no biggie There's that. There's that. And that was... That was... I'm really struggling to know where on the flipper that middle shot is every once in a while. I feel like the middle shot's just moving. I'm not inaccurate. The game is floating. Because the bunny... Wait. Did you ever have to find your Easter basket because the bunny didn't know about the chimney? Picnic basket. Found mine in the dryer one year. Nope. That's kind of funny, though. You know, we are pretty dang close here. I say let's just do it. You guys, thank you so much for hanging out this evening. It was a lot of fun. I've also got two issues I've got to work out now. thanks to some very wonderful donations from Dice and, wait for it, Planet886, which is amazing, but I evidently don't have the appropriate triggers for 10 packs of subs. So I've got to go figure that out. I know how to fix it right now. I'm just a little disappointed in the setup over there that when I did a grouping of subs, so rather than do one for one sub, one for two, one for three, one for four, I did one from one through five individually, and then I did six through ten and eleven through something else because, like, who would ever give ten packs? Nope. It's cool. It's cool. Create and work. We're going to go get it done. You guys have an awesome night. It is Thursday, right? please be Thursday. It is still Thursday for another eight minutes for me. That means I will be back on, I'm tentatively planning to be back on Monday. There's a really good chance that the new pinball machine gets here Tuesday. So Monday should be fun. Tuesday, hopefully, we'll be playing the new pin. And at some point, if we can get the stream, if we can get all of the stream stuff figured out and get a few more levels, like actually make some really good progress and get everything functioning as expected. Uh, maybe we can start to invite some people back over so that way I'm not hyper focused on all of the technical stuff. And I would, I would do a very, like a piss poor job of, of being an, uh, uh, a host if we had people over. So, uh, yeah. Happy Easter. If you celebrate it, happy Good Friday. If you celebrate it, Just have a great weekend, everyone. And if we don't throw in a fun – actually, I don't think the stream is going to happen this weekend. There's way too much going on. But we'll definitely see you on Monday. See you. Have you been inundated with ads and questions related to TPN's now famous homemade pinball pudding line of puddings? Questions like… TPN pinball pudding is so good, it must be illegal, right? What the fuck is pinball pudding? How can a collection of content creators also be a pudding? That makes no sense. And we hear you. You want to know what makes TPN so special? The answer is in TPN's secret ingredient. Simply, proof. Other puddings may say they have it too, but watch as they're unable to back those statements up. Well, I'm not a crook. Do we have evidence of that? It might be a tumor. It's not a tumor. Evidence? If you want, I'm gonna let you down. Evidence? Bitch, do I have a mark on my face? Right here. Not here or here so much, but right here. That's evidence. With the Fifth City on rock and roll. Again, request for more evidence. You can't handle the truth! Do you have evidence of that? Nobody makes me bleed my own blood. Nobody! Evidence? Scott GDI clean diesel, about 814 highway miles per tank. Do you have evidence of that?
