Summary

George and Christine stream gameplay of Jack*Bot, a Stern pinball machine recently added to the Garage Arcade via rental.

    medium confidence · George: 'the wizard mode is so easy to get to this game is really about high score and I find that I get frustrated with that over time'

    high confidence · Chat user asks about next pin; Christine responds: 'I'm looking at something maybe like out of the box, getting one of the newer, like I got Ninja Turtle game, Ninja Turtles right now.'

    • 7:49
    Yes, MPT3K. I was so excited to get my first pin. I'm already like pretty much 75% of my way onto a second pin. It's apparently a problem long at all. And I got my husband totally on board too. He supports my addiction. So we're in trouble. So what do you think your next pin might be? Um, I don't know. I, I'm looking at something maybe like out of the box, getting one of the newer, like I got Ninja Turtle game, Ninja Turtles right now. Ninja Turtles looks amazing. Yes, I apologize. I left my beard on. Yeah.
    8:24
    Okay. But there should be an option to make you shotgun that, what, and then do them. Alright. Show us how it's done. Me too. That's awesome. I get to do... Sorry. How many pull-ups have I done? You need to go back and count. Nine pull-ups. Nine. Guys, that's nine. Thank you very much for that follow-up. Nine. They're all counting. They got you at nine. My hat's off. Okay, so we're at nine. Okay, I can do three and then go.
    8:53
    Three sets of three. I got this. Oh, come on. Or not. Immediate drain. Awesome. Overfall save. Keep shooting. See if we can do this. All right. There's three. We've got six more to go. Woo! Okay, seven more to go. Thank you, shooter. I left you guys way too long without a way to use all those awesome points.
    9:22
    Pinstadium says 51. Actually, I think we're at 50. For whatever reason, the follower goal is always one or two off. It's very frustrating.
    9:32
    And make it 10. Seven now. Wait, why does dice say 10, but flipstream says 7? Do I have to go back here and count? No, no, it's 10. You did 3, so there's 7 left. Yeah, yeah. So I just did three, so there's seven left. Okay. Yes. We must break you.
    9:53
    It's seven, as you've done three. Ten total, you did three. Okay. See, guys? I got the math. I'm on this. All right. I'm not on this game. I apologize. So this is my first time playing this evening, and I am... It's a very quick drain, so... Ooh. I'm counting that last one although that was pretty weak but that surprisingly does not hurt my shoulder even a little bit oh come on thank you flip stream there we go we're at four now Don't worry, George. My points will find a good home during the Get Schwifty stream. Yes. We're definitely going to have to do something really, really fun for Turtles when it gets here. I'm already working on that stream.
    10:54
    Nice, nice. Good nudge. Good positive thinking. How about that? Thank you. Have you found, with the new pin, at home, are you working on your nudges at all? Do you feel like you are getting better? Oh, that was robbery. What was that? Sorry.
    11:11
    I'm trying to get multiple. Now it's five? Oh, that was a drain. I should have hit that. Fliptronic, welcome to the stream. Fliptronic wants to know what the different flex options are. So I have on Silver Ball Swag five, I think, different stickers, one for each of the emotes. So a sticker pack flex means that I send you the sticker pack. Need a DDR setup and let us pick the songs. Stir Fry, if I could dance, that would make sense. It's not. It's just workout. Yeah. It's just jumping. A lot of jumping. I'm the guy that does this and then just falls over. Hey, George. Hi, Christine. Ark Mecca. Hello. Welcome to the stream. Happy Tuesday to you as well.
    12:00
    And merch. There you go. That is the merch. And then check out the channel points. we threw in a bunch of cool new options. I did not focus that. I just totally realized we're both wearing Cthulhu shirts. It makes my heart so happy. Can you stand in front again? I've got to dial this in. No. There we go.
    12:22
    Okay, we're cool. Pez Johnson, Parley the Hard Eight. That I didn't get. Is that a Cthulhu reference?
    12:33
    No, I'm sorry, you guys. I apologize. I feel like I'm still stuck in doing more pull-ups. Now they're going to be back to me. Oh, my God.
    12:42
    Yep, I left you guys with way too long without a way to spend those points. Y'all have way too many points. Oh, hard eight. Got it, yes.
    12:52
    Wow, you win $42 million. I'm keeping it. All right, so I went for one of the four. We're going to call them modes. I don't know what they are. but you hit the saucer in the back where it says game saucer. You complete those four different modes You get to casino run which is kind of like the wizard mode in this And out there on the internets if I saying something wrong go ahead and let me know because I very likely will say something wrong
    13:22
    So, what do you think of this game so far? How long have you been playing it? A week? Not even? I got it on what day is it today? Tuesday? So I got it I think on Thursday or Friday I think I got it Friday last week. Where'd the game come from? It's a rental. Yeah. And so Dice Ghost even took out the bad voice effects that made me rather listen to Tony Curtis stubbing his toe for an hour. Now I'm pretty sure the squirrel was the one where everyone was screaming and he stopped.
    13:56
    Yeah, yeah. I took out the bad I completely revamped the point system here. We have the best words. Wow, that was classy right there. My ears have finally recovered. That's the stream. I'm so glad to hear that.
    14:20
    See, the weird part is we don't hear any of the call-outs anymore. So from this side, everyone, it sounds actually very different. Oh no, it's because I haven't turned the callouts back on as people come back into the stream. So I can turn those back on. It helps me, because then I know, I recognize all the callouts.
    14:40
    Let's take our 20. this game is is bouncy it's it's like it's bouncy but good even on the bonus okay so pezron says don't forget the cheat button even on the bonus collect right anytime you do something i feel like you interact with the the game you hit this button and you can cheat and get extra extra points out of it so the extra ball is a cheat button thank you i did not know that wait does 30 000 points get you a t-shirt it does so mbt3k wants to know that yes it does yes it does swag today's guys quit wasting them on pull-up that's what george is saying i'm basically giving people an out or giving myself an out hoping people go for schwag instead of humiliation instead of 10 billion shots at the next uh drinking stream as long as george is in lane cheating like he was last night oh tell me more it wasn't cheating what were we streaming no i was streaming star trek and the plunge the auto plunger doesn't always kick the ball out hard so i have to cradle up and manually plunge it and it's irritating it did work out to my benefit it a few times, but I also drained a few balls just trying to do it, and that was awful. Oh, hi, Zomniak. How are you? Wait, I can almost get a shirt, LOL. There you go.
    16:19
    Good thing I have two accounts. Well, you can't, yeah, unfortunately you won't be able to combine them, but you would be able to. I'm going to start a mode well on, okay, hold on. There you go. I missed it. Redeemed t-shirt flex whoa who was that was mpt3k gimme my shirt and flippinfargo added another pull up we got our first shirt guys also there's only one t-shirt redemption per stream and pinsomnack says he is absolutely not going to redeem any points for any shirts because he's going to do it on the drinking stream only you're going to be here on the drinking stream that's why he's going to use it against his enemies or his friends, either one. The table looks great. Awesome.
    17:10
    Boom. Okay, so Pez Johnson, it gives you the option to double or nothing, and you choose double, and you get it hot. Everyone's going so fast, I keep missing it. Hey, Jedi McMuffin, and everyone is doing pull-ups.
    17:27
    It's your ball button and it works the end of ball bonus, too, if you already have at least two times to give you an extra time. highlight my message.
    17:35
    Extra ball working butts during the end of the ball bonus too. So I'm going to hit it now. I don't know if it's going to give it to me right now, but...
    17:50
    Oh, so in part of what I want to know, George, as in myself, do we get to stream Star Trek? Do I get to host you for a stream at some point? Oh, yes. do it on stream. Absolutely. We're going to have to figure out logistics because you moved it into your house. Correct. So I'll kick everyone else out of my house. Okay.
    18:16
    There's dogs and kids and I would love to have your husband on it. Your husband has never been on the stream. He doesn't actually exist. It's all a lie, guys. It's all a lie. Can we pull points to get you a dog tattoo on your... Wow. Wait, what? They want to give you butt tattoos. No butt tattoos? Jeez.
    18:38
    No, not when starting multiball. Just when starting game modes, you can cheat. Okay. So not multiball. Thank you so much, Rolling Wonder. And Casino Run. When you do the Casino Run, hit the cheat button. Okay. When you go into wizard mode, you can get extra.
    18:53
    So I'm doing it now. It shook. I'm doing it. Thank you, MPT3K. T3K. He wants you to get shirts made of me dropping something on stream.
    19:06
    All right, so we have lit casino run. When we go to Pinberg next year, we're going to have word about this. Actually, I'm just going to make you the t-shirt and bring it for you. Oh, I can hit it. I'm hitting it. I'm hitting the button. Are you supposed to do that or just hit it once? I don't know. You just keep tapping. Unlimited balls for 45 seconds. get prizes. Extra ball. 100 million. Avoid bombs. Avoid the bombs.
    19:32
    I'm still hitting it. Wow. Risk. She's gonna kick my ass. That's not what I said. We all know Christine bought that ring at the pawn shop. Yes, my silicone ring is so fancy. It was actually a gumball machine. Thank you so much. Dias, I appreciate it. I'll offer emotional support. On Casino Run, hit the button every time it does the slot machine. I hit it a lot. No, he hit it like 50 billion times.
    20:09
    I am not a person of violence. Alright, we got a bomb defuse. What are bombs in this game? Sorry, I am missing what that means. You missed it.
    20:25
    Um, when you get a jackpot, you can get a bomb. Eliminate a bomb in the center reel. Okay, so there's a bomb. Okay, so this is actually from the... Okay.
    20:40
    Okay. Oh no! Thanks everybody for exploiting the game for me. Yeah, sorry, I probably should have done better 250, should I collect? I've got 13 seconds left No, it's fine, it's fine Give me an extra 10 seconds or something 1, 2, 1, 0 That sucks. I didn't get any of those points. So now I've got to work to get back there. All right.
    21:31
    So what do you think Stern's next game is going to be now that Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is out? Timed out, lost it all.
    21:38
    Pez sees you. Pez gets me. And just sees that you just lost everything. But I got to shoot again. The next fall.
    21:48
    Led Zeppelin by Steve Ciccio. Yeah, Led Zeppelin is very likely next. Which honestly does nothing for me.
    22:03
    Don't threaten me with a good time. Ryan, also big Led Zeppelin fan, so he would enjoy that. Okay. You should be hitting that cheat button on the bonus collect. it might give you an extra exponent. Okay.
    22:25
    Uh. You good? Random hero. Is that random hero saying hello to you? Random hero, welcome to the stream. I could have scored a lot more points on that game. Yeah, we would have been at two billion easy.
    22:47
    All right. I've got more pull-ups to do. Hey, guys, how are you guys tonight? Oz, Eric, also, welcome to the stream.
    22:57
    Good day. When did you, Pez, I got this game on Friday last week. I think it was Friday last week. It was very, very recently. I switched out Corvette for it.
    23:10
    And I am so happy with it. It's such a fun game. nice uh nice nice nice non-reaction there for the win right yeah yeah come on get up there uh and i would say mpt3k i'm gonna need your address but i think i already have it that's not so i will make sure to send you oh what i do need though is what's my shirt if you could dm that to me uh or pm or whatever that is i like the astronaut from twilight zone on the bonus screen. That's awesome.
    23:43
    When did you get this? Yay. Medium. There are no in-between sizes, guys. Oh, come on. Let me capture it. Oh, why? I can't slow the ball down. I'm really sad.
    24:06
    I'm really done by this. I can't slow it down to get the shot I want. There's three. All right, guys. How many more pull-ups am I at?
    24:15
    That is Cask Tapper. Thank you so much for that follow. My hat's off to you. Come on. Oh, why is it so bouncy? Yeah, not too bad. On vacation. I just did three flip streams. This is too bouncy for me right now. I'm terrible. Too bouncy. I can't capture up and make a shot. Oh, it is super tough. Yeah, I'm having a really hard time slowing the ball down. Oops.
    24:43
    Flip stream just redeemed. Okay, so you have three more. Pull-ups in the U.S. equal chin-ups in Australia. Okay, okay. We can call them chin-ups. That's fine.
    24:56
    He's pacing himself. How many points for one-handed pull-ups? Inquiring dice minds want to know. I mean, one-handed, but I get to hold the other hand, right? It's kind of, I mean, it is technically one-handed, but it obviously doesn't feel like it.
    25:18
    See, yours slowed down so much. I'm so jealous. Well, I'm dead flipper. Mine was so fast. You got a dead flip. Even bouncing off, it kept going to the outer lanes and dying. Okay, and this game will definitely do that. That was my problem. so now I gotta hit it under the left ramp just like that there we go now I don't really have anything to do I've never been able to do one chin-up ever in my entire life you can have it as hitting that cheat button when you get in that mode I hit it oh awesome I did it I did the thing awesome that was amazing thank you I can't pull it down enough to... Well, I mean, don't say that. I feel like that's just jinxing me. She's like, you're going to be here for a minute, right? But yes, please, go grab a beer.
    26:20
    I am good right now You doing well And nothing like a good hot mode hole There we go I hit it I hit it again
    26:32
    Uh, light extra ball. Loving it. Uh, now we need to hit the left ramp in order to relight saucer. That is unfortunate. Let's go again. There! Nope, that was not it.
    26:57
    Let's try that again, shall we? Wow. I had the extra ball right there. It's just like, oh, all you gotta do is light it. I was, like, thinking too much about it. I overthought it. Let's see, it didn't give you anything this time around, but that's how the cheat button works. Sometimes it gives you something, sometimes it doesn't. So if you hit the cheat button whenever you go into a mode hole, it always gets you extra points, says Odds Eric.
    27:29
    Here we go, ball two. By the way, we owe dear sweet pinball gods. Thank you. We've got this thing pitched at 7.25 degrees. It is balanced well. and looks like the outlanes are definitely on the side of easier. I didn't adjust those. That's just how those are. I think it's probably because the guys who operate this realize that it's kind of a brutal game.
    28:05
    Can we post-transfer? I mean, it happened, but I wouldn't say we were successful. Here we go. We've got Kino lit.
    28:19
    Now I can't find it. And I forgot about the extra ball. There we go. Ball two done. Life is like a cheat button.
    28:30
    Life is definitely something. There it is. And I'm cheating. I'm hitting the button. Cheat, cheat, cheat, cheat, cheat, cheat, cheat, cheat. Four matches for 25. Let's just cash in and get right to...
    28:48
    Get right to Casino Run. Casino Run! Alright, second game, second Casino Run. That's apparently how we roll.
    29:02
    Just don't walk away from the machine. I think it works like every fifth time you hit the button it will work.
    29:13
    I feel like if you get a bomb, risk and continue. I'll take that. Ooh, nice. We got 10 seconds there.
    29:43
    Awesome. There we go. Special. Here we go. You know what? We've got 18 seconds left. I'm going to risk and continue. Let's go one more.
    30:36
    No, no. No. There we go. Alright, this is it. We're collecting. Yes! 630 million. Two specials. Two extra... The extra balls are lit at this point. We got a replay. I'm liking those. It's not really... Odd?
    31:09
    I never lit extra ball. I had four extra balls lit. Oh, that was funny. Live catch pinball. Good night. Have a wonderful evening. Thank you so much for stopping by. And I get it, man. Tired but happy. Monday. Tuesday was like a second Monday, as far as I'm concerned. That was an okay collect.
    31:36
    First game, I had a billion point collect, and I couldn't hit it. I couldn't follow it up. All right.
    31:42
    Christina's probably in there talking to Jess and telling her that you're not letting her have a turn on Jackbot. That might actually be happening right now, Ty.
    31:54
    Christine! I'm going to take your turn if you're not back soon. Are you yelling? It's my turn. It is your turn. It's fine. You can keep going. and I'll take your turn.
    32:13
    The other thing I could do is put on music. She shut the door. I'm taking her turn. Let's do this, guys.
    32:21
    No, no, no, okay. The world is terrible right now. Yes. Okay, and Dice says, Christine is probably in there talking to Jazz, telling her that you're not letting her have a turn on jackpot. No, I totally was not. We were actually talking about the world, heavy stuff. We're not talking about the screen, right? So it's fine.
    32:47
    Correct, yes. You're having it. All right, last three pull-ups. Okay. Oh, come on. Oh. Thank you, Caviel.
    33:07
    Two more. Two more! Oh, why did you not make it up the ramp? Heavy stuff. Like anvils and weights, yes. Mercury. Like Wile E. Coyote getting smashed by the anvil. Yes, acne. Yes, acne heavy. Yes. Oh, are those like three more? Yep. Three more pull-ups.
    33:38
    We're not? Oh, come on, I want to backhand you so bad. What a fantastic table. Really wish I had this one. Arso, oh, sorry, Arrow SSPU, a.k.a. I'm just going to say Arrow. Yeah, this is a really fun table.
    33:58
    I'm happy that I'm renting it for a month, because I definitely would get bored of this over time. like the wizard mode is so easy to get to this game is really about high score and I find that I get frustrated with that over time that said I could go in and now adjust the out lane width now that I've actually looked at it and seen that they're on the easier side We can make it a little bit harder. It's already pitched at 7.25, I think is where I put it. So it's already on the aggressive side. That said, I'd probably consider putting it up to 8. And then opening up the outlanes a little bit.
    34:53
    And I think these are the easy ones to adjust to. The stern made it so hard on Black Knight. It was probably the most difficult outlane size. By the way, congrats, multiball. Here we go. So while you're in multiball, you want to get it back in multiball. Okay.
    35:17
    Oh, so close. Don't forget my t-shirt. Please send to mpt3k123mockingbirdlane, Anytown, USA. mpt3k, yes. I will not forget.
    35:31
    Ooh! drink or prost. We just killed a bug. We got a bug zapper in the garage now. Yes, we got one. Nice.
    35:40
    So you just restarted the multiball. I only have one left. Oh, no, I don't. There you go. Don't hit the one that already has a ball in it. Oh, I get that. Oh, no.
    35:55
    You got that. You got that. Nicely done. Nicely done. color dead mosquito that that would be a really cool one to to program up god i need to get in there i should have been working on that today honestly uh exclamation point zapper take that skeeter says stir fry so anyway yeah uh mpt3k i need to know what we're not bad why was that right down the middle molly hatchet welcome to the stream i also really really like this game. Oh no, ball three? Look at you! Half a bill so far! I know, but this is the most I've done so far in this game by far.
    36:36
    That was totally draining. Alright, it's your ball. So, really quick. Let's not talk about that. Let's just not. That whole thing didn't happen. I should just have not done that. I'm very aware that I should not have done that.
    36:51
    Ew! I like that. That's a good color. definitely your color it's yes the color looks awesome why are we doing that color oh it changes color what is this yes that is the what she's talking about is the nano leaf up there it really is it's cool it's a thing at head level where you can't see it when we're actually streaming one of these days I will program Roboctopus to work with nano leaf and then I'm going to get so many more I like I want to do my whole house and then when it actually does a rave it's going to be like literally a rave Like, it can just string lights everywhere.
    37:32
    Take that, Skeeter. Yeah, and then the, uh... I appreciate everything about that. That's the thing. Alright.
    37:47
    Totally, totally what's about to happen. See that part where you try to capture it and it says no? I feel like this game has a lot of that. It does.
    38:10
    Alright, we've got one more shot to open that up for multiball. Slipstream, they made me so happy. Boots and Pants and Boots and Pants. What is it? No, it's Boots and Cats? Is it Boots and Pants or Boots?
    38:29
    Boots and Cats and Boots and Cats. Somebody posted that recently, and I went there and watched the video, and I'm like, I need to turn this off, but I couldn't.
    38:40
    And then I watched the whole thing and kept singing that the whole time. Have you seen Claudia Vachance's New Vault? Yes. Cat videos where they're like, we've been watching this for three hours and they couldn't turn it off? Yes. That's all I can imagine right there when you said you couldn't actually... Couldn't turn it off. ...turn it on.
    39:04
    Oh, they put a link. Thank you. It is boots and pants. You can. I knew I could count on you, Steve.
    39:15
    Multi-ball! But no gummy bears. Definitely no gummy bears. Oh, but see, that's Cloud of the Champion Vault 2.
    39:31
    It a USB duh There a leak in the boat That line right there got me to watch the first one And then after we watched the first one we like nope I not watching the second one
    39:52
    Alright. So the second one is funny in a programmer fun way. Because literally it's a BS USB. And then in the end it has a virus. You know, like, B-S-U-S-B, hello.
    40:07
    Okay. Cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool. We're all good here. It's your turn. All right. I've got three more pull-ups, and then I'm finally, finally all caught up. Let's do that.
    40:27
    By the way, I do want to point out, did you guys notice, it's kind of hard to see, but the logo at the right side of the screen is animated.
    40:38
    Flipstream, thank you very much for that. You're amazing. The Pensomniac, alright, great. Now we've got four pull-ups.
    40:50
    I've got my eye on you. Oh, yeah. This is going to be a great tomorrow. Oh, come on. Come on. One. Two. Nope, there we go. Two.
    41:07
    Five. Oh, we're not that. Thank you, Flipstream and Caviel. Oh, I should have hit it. Both. Should have hit it again. That's great. I have four more to go now. That's so cute. They, like, really like you right now. I know, yeah. Guys, so nice. BFX for life. Five more? I thought I had four plus two is six, and I just did two, so now I have four more, right?
    41:34
    Weird. Anyone else getting a weird breathing of the entire stream like we saw on desk camera? I hope not.
    41:45
    We're showing green and not one dropped frame. Nick fought one, too. Okay, so I missed one. Okay, cool. So we've got five more.
    41:57
    That was fun. Oh, that was brutal. That was so nasty. So nasty. And it's done. And it's you. It's not bad, but it's there. If the light's green, the trap is clean. What? Guys? That's Ghostbusters. I know. No, you can't do that because I asked for that game. We're playing a different game. You can't reference the game. Oh, that's right, yeah. You can't reference it. That's why I'm upset. Christine really wanted to play Ghostbusters, but I had just got Jackpot. I'm struggling with bouncing into this one.
    42:43
    I feel like this is one I have to play multiple times. It's kind of like that curve with Tron, where once you get the rhythm of it, you start to be like, okay, now you know. Right, right. It's a game that has its own cadence or something like that. Yeah, exactly.
    42:58
    Why not both? For which? Sorry, I don't know what you're referencing. Oh, it couldn't give me that? That actually hit the other flipper. That was just bad me. Why not both? Oh, so the random hero. I moved the pinball machines instead of the gear. and it's doable, but it would be a lot of effort. We'd have probably 10 minutes of downtime as we switch. At the same time, LOL. Oh my god!
    43:42
    Dueling, but not even playing the same game. I like this. I like how the thought process is here. Play your message, George. Glad it arrived safely, says Flipper Snapper. Yes! Not only that, you see that... I mean, it's tiny, but it's there. You guys, that... What does it say? It says, the bells and chimes. I know that's a great look, by the way, but it says something. Okay.
    44:08
    It is... Wait, is that the local bells and chimes? That is the Austin... Not local. This is the one from Austin that Flipper Snapper runs. Awesome.
    44:19
    So why aren't you playing two-player games? I don't know. Just kind of... Yeah, we're maintaining Dice that's George 2020. It's tiny, but it's there
    44:46
    What what did I It's tiny, but it's there. Yeah, that's been totally made into a video now. Oh, yeah.
    44:56
    For everyone watching, for scale, that pin is an inch enamel. Now we know how big George really is off stream.
    45:04
    Like his real person size versus your internet size. Yes, yes. Internet size. Internet apparently takes away a couple feet. It does.
    45:18
    I thought I added 10 pounds, but, you know, it's whatever. That's not going to make it. All right, we got one more there.
    45:32
    The slap that you gave it as it came down to readjust it, what is that? Because that's not really a nudge, right? That's more of a... I'm trying to learn the nuance of that. It's a preemptive nudge. I've got to learn all the nuance of nudging apparently there's like a book there's totally a book how to nudge for dummies here we go slot machine cheat everything was the matching Cthulhu sure it's planned one simply cannot plan Cthulhu so please tell me that was a Boromir reference with the matching Cthulhu one simply cannot plan Cthulhu No, we did not plan for that. No, we did not. Yeah. We just both happen to wear cool clothing on a fairly consistent basis. And I'm totally going with you saying that in Boromir's voice. From Fellowship of the Ring. What was the line again? One cannot simply... Oh. What a bunch of... One simply cannot plan for Cthulhu. One cannot simply walk into... This entire conversation was up here on the nerdiness level. Okay?
    46:45
    Like, how often do you accidentally match your Cthulhu shirts? Oh my god, can we say that in a Lord of the Rings voice? Hmm, actually, yes, that was all. Is it .33 repeating, of course? Because then it's like actually real. No, it's actually 42.
    47:02
    Feel like we just put a new tie in. It took back in on itself. By the way, it was National Towel Day last week. I had no idea! Yes, it was. It was. You missed it during all of the other things that are happening. Right, so many things. There's a lot of things happening.
    47:17
    But it was National Towel Day. I can't believe this Cthulhu guy started a whole religion based off the H.P. Lovecraft books. I'm surprised. And that random hero, nerd! There's no credits. Oh, yeah. We have to do the thing. I was like, so...
    47:34
    It's one time. There was this one at Bandcamp. Oh, it's three. It's expensive. Yeah, well, Fort Collins moved up to 75 cents about a year ago. Oh, so... But mine is only two, I'm just saying. I appreciate it a lot. All right, it maxes out at 10 credits.
    48:00
    Please, play again. Mine does not do that. I can put as many credits. I can do at least 20. Sterkride says, don't panic.
    48:09
    He has the keys. It is written on the back of the Hitchhiker's Guide book. Don't panic. Oh! Come on. Almost a walk the plank. You were almost a pirate.
    48:27
    Thank you for saying it in the... Right, yeah, from Revenge of the Nerds, that guy. Nerds! Oh, come on. Yarr! That's right. If you walk the plank, you should have to say R in a pirate voice.
    48:46
    Ooh. No, even better. How about this? If you walk the plank, you have to talk like a pirate for a minute.
    48:53
    Christine's like, I'm not listening to anything you say. I'm going to go multi-ball. I got multi-ball on ball one. I was pretty excited about that. I'm doing things. You almost just walked the plank right there. You almost had to spend the rest of the multi-ball. I don't even know what walk the plank means. Talking like a pirate. It didn't happen. All right. Get it back in there. Quick. If you get it back in there, quick. Nice left ramp. I find that to be the hardest shot. But if you can get it back in there. I did not. You did not.
    49:17
    So, Clippersnapper, I woke up briefly a couple times in the middle of the night to my cat licking me continuously. Was she, A, being sweet, or literally trying to eat me because she thought I was dead? Thoughts? I'm going with your cat thinking that you were dead. Oh, no. Because cats are soulless. like if there was an animal that for whatever reason we as a society appreciate but is a is the definition of a sociopath uh not even a sociopath what's the sociopath but likes to kill people psychopath there you go that's a cat so your cat was tasting you trying to decide how best to cook you like ah i think she needs a little bit more salt we're gonna make sure that She gets all of the soda ads this week and gets all the sugar and salt.
    50:07
    Come on. Come on, drop it. Let's see here. Probably the second one. Both says Bliptronic. Bliptronic, by the way, welcome to the stream. I'm not sure if I said that earlier because I said hello to the stream. You've been here for a minute, but it's fine. Yeah, you've been here all night. It's fine. It's really fine. It's totally fine.
    50:26
    Eating your owner is a sign of a... Wait a second. Not affection. Eating your owner is a sign of confection. Boom. Two points. That's it. Screams over. Put up the knife. I feel like I should win that right there. I feel like the...
    50:49
    Something's going on here. Oh, come on. Yeah, our CPU is up at 55%. Where's my extra ball? I don't know why Putty is running right now.
    51:09
    Well, yeah, waste not, want not. You know what I'm going to do? I'm going to start unplugging things, guys.
    51:29
    I'm so close to 1 billion, by the way. 963, my best score yet. Okay, down at 19.6. I'm so sorry. I was really excited. It was my best score all evening. I'm so sorry. You're such a C. I'm not a D. The stream was dying. We're at 55% CPU utilization for some reason. And the computer can't seem to keep up. We're now dropping frames. Stream.exe. Flippin' Fargo. It's not dead.
    52:22
    We're... No idea what's causing this. Hold on. It's cool. I only have my best game. Yeah, it's... The screen died. It's fine. I'm so sorry. High five. Yes.
    52:37
    That was... I went to go actually high five and then realized that we're not supposed to. Yeah, we're still at... All right, guys. Two seconds. Hang on. I'm going to stop and restart the stream. Just give me... Give me a sec.
