TL;DR

Don't Panic Flip plays TNA with Roboctopus app features; audio amp fails mid-stream.

Summary

Don't Panic Flip streams gameplay of Spooky Pinball's Total Nuclear Annihilation (TNA) while demonstrating the Roboctopus app's color-changing features and discussing stream improvements. George encounters audio amplifier issues mid-stream, requiring sound shutdown for the latter half of the session. The hosts play competitively and co-operatively while engaging with chat, discussing upcoming tournaments and other pinball games.

Key Claims

  • Total Nuclear Annihilation has stainless steel siding that prevents Pinstadium Extremes from magnetizing properly

    high confidence · George (host) explaining the issue with the Pinstadium extremes and TNA's construction

  • Spooky Pinball recommended hot glue as a fix for audio socket feedback issues

    high confidence · George describing his call to Spooky Pinball support about the audio problem

  • The replacement audio cable did not fix the issue; the amplifier itself requires replacement

    high confidence · George explaining that after installing a replacement cable, they discovered the amplifier socket is the problem

  • TNA has a firmware beta version (approximately 1.4) that includes a lighting setting adjustment for the green etched plastic

    high confidence · George explaining the designer (Matt Scott Dinesi) added flasher lighting settings for the green etched plastic variant

  • Roboctopus app allows real-time stream color changes via hex code commands

    high confidence · George demonstrating the app functionality during stream, showing stream colors changing based on color commands

Notable Quotes

  • “The green etched plastic was so light that even the designer of the game... and the beta firmware that we're running right now has a setting in the firmware to set the lighting on this to be better for the green etched plastic.”

    George (Don't Panic Flip host)@ 23:30 — Indicates developer responsiveness to physical component variants in code updates

  • “I called Spooky Pinball about it and they're like you should try hot glue. We tried hot glue, and that fixed it for a short amount of time. I then ordered a replacement cable. We put it in this morning, and apparently it wasn't the cable. It is the amplifier in the game.”

    George (Don't Panic Flip host)@ 49:14 — Documents support interaction and manufacturing/component quality issue with TNA audio system

  • “This game is very different without sound. The sound on this is amazing. Apparently I need a whole new amplifier.”

    George (Don't Panic Flip host)@ 50:36 — Acknowledges importance of audio design to game experience while documenting equipment failure

We'll be right back. Hello. Hi, my name is George, and apparently that hosting is going to continue looping until I make it back to this screen and then switch back. So, hello again! My name is George, and this show is Don't Panic Flip, and tonight we are going to be playing a really fun game. This is Total Nuclear Annihilation. Now it's the real thing. You guys can actually see it here. Uh, it's looking really pretty. We've got a bunch of lights. We've got some crazy stuff behind us here with the graffiti art. Faye, welcome to the stream. And with us tonight, we have Titanic's color pink. Yeah, and also we are demoing slash trying out some of the new features of the Roboctopus app. So you'll see when you change the color by doing an exclamation point color and either choosing a hashtag hex code or specifying the color, you'll see the stream actually matches that. So we're kind of playing around with stuff. In the meantime, though, TNA. Welcome to the future. So first, look at that. Color blue. Look at the stream change color. It's very pretty. To us, it looks dramatic. on the screen not so much well i mean there's all there's all that and dice welcome to the stream greetings pink ninja man oh no i don't update the title ah that sucks all right hold on changing the title
6:43
had all day to do this you want to get going roll a that's so frustrating All right. Thank you, Pink Ninja Man.
7:27
and we're going to try, it's going to mess with things, we're going to try putting the stream deck right here, actually on the game, so that way I have quick access to do things like when someone says, I don't know, what do you guys do? What would you say you do here? We play pinball! So now we're going to switch, quick, easy access to the stream, we are not playing Jurassic Park tonight, instead we're going to play some Total Nuclear Annihilation, and we're starting things off with competitive yes all right your secret well played all right we got one more on the grid to hit but instead i'm gonna go for a lock because that is a very dangerous shot Totally did that on purpose.

8:33
Obviously, again on purpose. That's how we roll here. I am trying to shoot the left scoop. What are you... Oh, no. Are you messing with the colors? Okay, so Rave doesn't do anything with the background colors yet. Oh, but it looks cool, the background. But it does look really cool when it changes, yeah. need some like color settings that just shift slowly like a cool setting where it's all purples and blues and greens a warm setting sandy beach or something like that sunset twilight and pink ninja yes dice this new Jurassic Park code is definitely looking very weird almost like it's a totally different game Wait, what? There's a new Jurassic Park code? No, it's the 9-1. Oh, this one. Because I accidentally sent a notification out that we were playing Jurassic Park tonight. That is very much my bad. And no one has guessed the emote, Pink Ninja Man. And I do have a new hint for you. And this is the last hint because the emote is done. I just showed it to Ty. No one's gonna get that. No one is ever gonna get it. But I will let you know, here's the hint on what the emote is. It was loosely inspired by one of my daughter's favorite books.
10:32
Nice save. Playing very dangerous. And you're going to start the reactor. So we've got... It's not pinball related. It is... Would you call it pinball-related? No.
10:51
It's not pinball-related. It is not a human. It is not Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy-related. Wow, you snuck in there. Don't worry about it.
11:08
Shoot. And I can't think of what the... I mean, the one I just said, but I feel like there was another end. And I'm not memorizing these. Got some more playtime in at my local barcade over the weekend, and Jesus, I can't stand Houdini. Dice, you and everybody else who plays pinball, I feel like has those same sentiments.
11:31
It is not the Hungry Hungry Caterpillar, but Pink Ninja Man, you're getting closer. Now, oh! It was also, one of the clues was a riddle. What is a pirate's favorite letter? and Dirty Toes welcome to the stream thank you the background wait wait the color background change thing or and Dice that is not the answer to that riddle or the graffiti background Fifty Shades of Grey it is not Fifty Shades of Grey that is definitely not one of my daughter's favorite books she's six Alright Let's see if we can get this Skill shot Let's try that again
12:41
All right, game. Nobody makes me bleed my own blood. Nobody. You know, at least one of those has to go. I am really trying here.
13:07
It only gave me one of the... Oh, okay, there we go. The kick out on this game is pretty slow. Hey! There we go! I see you installed a tilt-bob. I did. There has always been a tilt-bob installed. All right, we're going to try to shat the pants here.
13:44
Nope. All right, game. There's no reason to get all excited. It's still disconnecting. All right. Lord Howard Hurts, welcome to the stream. Dirty Toes, oh, the riddle was, what is a pirate's favorite letter? and got second at Lodo last night. Seven strike group knockout. Had six strikes after round four, then won three straight games to make it to the final round. Congrats, dude. Six, seven strikes? Seven strikes. Oh, but... Oh, between your old team. Okay. Right? Wait, was it team? Group knockout? Oh, group knockout. Okay. I mean, I don't know. Arr! Dirty Toes, it is definitely not the letter R.
14:37
And I can't, I mean, it was the riddle, so I can't give it to you. Well, so much for that. And there should be no strain on that now that I got the 90 degree thing. Oh yeah, aluminum foil.
14:58
Okay. We both are at the same point, or were. So if you get this, then we're good. Alright, game. I'm losing my ten seconds here. Losing the ball save. Lost it just in time.
15:26
Oh, we got that one back. All right, we're going to try and shat to the bed here again. Almost did it. Now we're just going to hit it. No, we're not.
15:49
There we go. One reactor. I didn't even get a reactor. Did you see the list for False Lookout? I did. I don't know if the other... I don't know if the 10th game... Did they post the list?
16:09
They did. It's via picture. Alright, now let's get back into a multiball here. Let's see here. They love the C! Yes!
16:22
Cool. I won that game. So, that's, I'm happy with that. Reactor? Question mark. A pirate's favorite letter, the letter in a bot? No. Different. That's a cool response to that. All right. Are we against or together? That was not satisfying. Okay, so we need to do it again. Yeah. And since I won, I'll go first.
16:56
Kinda, what I should be doing is utilizing my ball save, I feel like. Let's do that again, shall we? That sucked.
17:26
Alright. Keep one of them. I was using this one, but yeah. We just need to, yeah. I need to install it.
17:36
Oh, thanks! Oh, you are so welcome! Welcome! Let's see here. They do love this scene. Yes! So that was the answer to the riddle. Wow, nice. That's not even a Lazarus. You, like, pulled that out of the trough.
17:57
I may just be squeezing in a little road trip or two up to Pinball Jones this weekend. Lord Howard Hurds, can't wait to see ya!
18:13
I'm so bad at this. Okay, never mind. You got it. Wow, like a pro. There it is. Yeah! No! No! Tag flip! Yeah, Lord Howard Hurts. The fall flip out last year was worth some decent whoppers.
18:57
Who's the guy in... Oh, I mean, I don't know if the Lepkoffs are coming. I don't think they were in it last year. They were not.
19:09
But that would be worth a ton of whoppers. And then, who's the other guy? the older guy out of Denver. Donovan? Yeah, Donovan.
19:19
You couldn't even give me a locked ball? I get nothing out of that? That's a lot of work. Donovan's a very nice guy. I met him a couple weeks ago when Nick and I went to Hendo for their tournament.
19:35
Cool. That's how you jam the ball in there. Oh, no. I meant about Dory Hill. Never mind. Let me just go ahead and lock two balls for you here really quick. Alright game. remember how we do this here. One, two, three.
20:14
Here we go. And Jenga. Did you say Jenga when the other person moved you? No. Why did you say Jenga? I guess that makes more sense. but I say I guess I say Jenga when I get a multi-ball when you say Jenga when you play Jenga when you knock over the stack isn't that when you say Jenga but that's when you lose right yes so does everyone else say Jenga or did you say Jenga because you lost I don't think everyone is saying it because I lost Is it working? Am I distracted?
21:09
This is a real crystal-coating, George. I don't know! You're asking me too many questions while I'm playing pinball, and I can't do both at the same time!
21:27
I really shouldn't be doing this, but I did. All right, we got a reactor at least unlocked. Whoppers, we're playing for Burger King. Dice, those are the WPPRs that you get for your, that determine rank. That sucked.
21:53
And the higher the skill level or the rating of people in the tournament, the larger number of Whopper points are available to be won.
22:05
And Dash Rendar, this is not. This is the standard edition with all of the add-ons. And then if you think it looks a little bit different, we bought the etched green plastic and installed that. Level one. And you shanked my Jenga ship.
22:32
Nice save. I may... Okay, yeah. And Dash Rendar, welcome to the stream. I promise that the gameplay will improve as larger quantities of alcohol are consumed.
23:01
Yeah, Dash Rendar, man, I... You know, the... Nice. The green etched plastic was so light that even... What's his face? The designer of the game, his name is... I keep wanting to say Steve Buscemi. but it's Scott Dinesi, which sounds just like Steve Buscemi. Even he and the beta firmware that we're running right now, which is like a beta 1.4, I think, it actually has a setting in the firmware to set the lighting on this to be better for the green etched plastic.
23:45
No! Wow. The lighting? But it's just the flasher lighting, right? It is... I think it's the... Maybe it's the flashers while you're in multiball. Because it used to be all green when you were in multiball, and now you can change it. You want the default color to be blue or something else. What's your exception? I set it to blue. Oh, okay.
24:11
So that way it just doesn't make the whole pin look completely green. That doesn't look blue. Would they make an exception if I'd rather have the burgers or even the candy dice. If at the end you wanted candy or burgers, I'm sure something could be worked out. I would take your Whopper points. I'd be fine with that.
24:33
Wow. I'm going to have his Whopper. Obviously did that intentionally. Yep. Okay, the Twitch app is terrible. That wasn't flying. That was falling with style. The Twitch app is so bad. I don't know how to pause the stream.
24:57
Upload? Oh, share? I'll take it. I'll take it. That's going to have some backspin on it. and Jenga. Alright, so what do we need? We need the pop bumper.
25:42
Really? All right, so while we got... Oh! I can't believe I missed that. That was so bad! All right, we've got one more shot here.
26:05
If we get it both... Darn it. That is a very dangerous shot. I'm going to go ahead and take it anyways.
26:15
There we go. Now we're ready to start the reactor, but we need to get back into... What do you got? The indigo? That's not great. No, that's not a great indigo.
26:30
What's the command to look at the colors? There is... Oh, exclamation point colors. That's best. Danger.
26:42
Danger. We're going to give it a sec. Game done. There really is a tilt-bob. It's just crazy, man. It's so sensitive, too, actually. It is really sensitive, and I don't feel like it's set that high. It's not set that high. It like the whole pinball machine just moves really really easily It still moving pretty fast Did you grease it or something No I did not grease the dill pop Yay
27:16
Color orange, huh? Alright. I kinda like the color orange. I like the color orange. I don't like the color orange on the screen, I guess.
27:30
I don't like that orange. Yeah, exactly. This is what I think should show up when you choose brown. Have you seen my car? I like that orange. Yeah, that like auburn, not auburn, almost like metallic or burnt orange. Yeah.
27:51
Pumpkin pie orange. There you go. Yeah, I like that. Pumpkin pie. So it's The games are what? Jurassic Park Game of Thrones For the tournament this weekend For the qualifiers Pants It's probably like Pantalonians or something
28:30
Yeah, there we go. Pink. I'm okay with that one. Although, I mean, if I had my druthers, I would go hot pink.
28:45
Exactly, yeah. Those colors are for the other people in the street. Sorry. There we go. Now I feel like I look less violently Caucasian when we don't have this ultra bright white up there.
29:07
Oh, there it goes. Dark pink. Hot pink is way better. Dark pink apparently is not a thing. The color purple.
29:22
I don't know how to play this game it was a good round alright I got destroyed so I would not go first are we going against each other again or do you want to try co-op against each other one more round we're one and one this is the rubber band match and nobody makes me bleed my own blood nobody anyone else here love the Willy Wonka machine but think you'd grow to hate it if you owned one. Can I press these? Yeah, go for it. The bottom ones? What is that one? What would you say you do here? That's pretty neat. Yeah. You can change the scene if you just want to focus on you. So if you want to have a little one-on-one conversation with chat, you can do that by selecting the chatting button.
30:15
Can I hit the ending button? No, please don't hit the ending button. There's so much power at my fingertips. Quite literally, yes.
30:29
Seems like this uses 120 volts. What? It's USB, isn't it? I meant the pinball machine. Oh, yeah. No, that's like, I'm guessing 3 to 10, 3 to 5 volts? 3.5 volts? If it's USB, it's just 5. Okay. and yeah so dice my thoughts on willy wonka is it is a beautiful machine that for some reason i really don't enjoy playing i like willy wonka i think it's pretty fun well there you go two completely different opinions i don't really understand why you hate it though no i whoa whoa whoa i didn't say i hated it same thing no it's not it's just that like you would prefer not to play it uh would i play black knight sort of rage or willy wonka i would play black knight sort of rage why like it's boring i think that willy wonka is boring i don't know it just doesn't the i don't know i just don't find it interesting alright alright alright I think it's one of those games you have to like sit down and read the rules before you can appreciate it not that I have but there's just so much going on and I like that there is definitely a lot going on in Willy Wonka I get that um really? alright cool cool one second are you turning off the show pop? George, we need to have the tilt bomb. It's a pinball machine. I'm pushing in the audio cable.
32:22
You know what? Pirates of the Caribbean managed to have a lot going on at the same time that it had a bunch of shots that were really fun to hit, and it did something cool. In the same way that even though I really don't like playing it, It's not because the shots aren't interesting in Wizard of Oz. Wizard of Oz is crazy. It's just the darkest game I think I've ever played. And I only get to play it on location and I can't hear anything.
32:53
Yeah. And Willy Wonka, on the other hand, I feel like every time I play it, I'm going to play it for 20 minutes and I'm going to walk away being like, I don't know what just happened.
33:06
Kind of meh. Oh, wow, look at this! Alright, so, while... We have our multiball and our ball save. That's great. Whatever. We completed the grid. This is some really, really good pinball here. maximum red alright now we've got to get it into the reactor done amazing start up sequence as we start up the reactor maximum red
34:07
That was nice. I'll take it. Alright, what do we need? We've got the destroy right there. That is the only target we have to hit.
34:25
And apparently, you can backhand it. That's a good orange. I like that. Mango Tango. That's a cooler name, I feel like, than it is... than it is a color, though.
35:04
Alright, now we're trying to get back into our locks. There we go. Now we're ready to hit our scoop back there, relighting our locks. That's not good.
35:30
And we've got our first ball lock. Okay, we're doing some things here. and dirty toes says i am absolutely in love with outer worlds i want there to be more and more of it dirty toes i like watching people play that game i think that says a lot about how good the game is is if you can enjoy watching someone play it And Jenga!
36:20
What was that? All right, guys. There we go. Reactor is unlocked. You need to start reactor. All right, let's see if we can start this reactor. I suck.
36:55
That was also wonderful. Alright, it's a little bit better. Come on. Here we go! What do we need? Looks like just that guy. Got it. Destroy lane phase, level 1.
38:04
2x jetpot. Grr. I was trying to use the thing, but I needed to actually flip. Alright, so we got a mystery. Relight my locks. Reactive our locks.
38:27
I think that's a great reward. Uh-oh. Somebody just raided us. Raid! House and garden bug killer. Hunts bugs down like radar. That was... Who was it? Pure Retro Colorado. Coming in with that raid.
38:55
Thank you very much. that as a hats off. Those flashing lights were just for you. Does that seem safe enough to tag?
39:10
Alright. We're starting to... Hey, Siri! Welcome to the stream! That paint, though. Especially when it's bright white.
39:25
Okay. Thank you, Sari. Pure retro. It says cheer to be number one. So check that out. The whole stream just changed to green. Thank you.
39:54
All right. A reactor is critical. I feel like that's probably a good thing. All right, we need the R, the D, and that destroy over there. I would love to be in a multiball.
40:11
Color wild straw. Thank you. Less violently paint colored. Or white, yes. Alright, I got an extra ball, so I'll just... I'll hang here. I'll hang here. We're good. Where'd the power of grace go? Thank you so much for joining us, Pure Retro, and for the... Sorry, it was called a raid. Lost the word there. And mental breakdown! Welcome to the stream.
40:46
Let's see here. Funny how you never intended to be bald, and now you are always bold. I don't remember what you look like with hair anymore I mean that's just a personality thing I feel like I've always been somewhat bold and now I have hair or a lack of hair that somehow manages that is consistent with that I remember the stream where you didn't want to take the back yep alright we got a reactor and a ball lock Yeah I know. Here we go, another ball lock. There, boom. I hit the chat button for maximum pain. Oh, the color changed again. Jenga. All right, two more shots on the grid. All right.
42:05
We're going to start that reactor here. I will take that. Just bounce around a lot. I can't let anything go here. Thank you.
42:39
Oh, no! Grr. All right, that's... We're on four, ball two. That wasn't awful. Good, I guess. Yeah, yeah, you've got to do some catching up here. Faye is back.
42:58
And what did I miss, Chad? What reactor did we make it to? We are at the height of our reactor right now, at reactor four.
43:09
Okay. Also, everybody, How is the volume and video on stream? It doesn't show I've dropped any frames. Everything looking okay?
43:21
Oh, heck yeah. I mean, that was looking great. Okay, great. All right. Solid catch-up.
43:39
All right. Let's see here. Come on, game. The audio on this is such a pain in the butt. What about a rubber band?
43:55
Whoa. Hold on a sec, guys. The key has already bent. Yeah, I know. Okay. We only have half the speakers right now. It's actually getting worse.
44:19
I'll take that again. I just wasted it, but you know how it goes. What do we need? We need the D. And, all right, so just the D. Or do we go for locks? I'm not sure which. Is the border on the DMD face camera supposed to change color also? Yes, it is. Yes.
44:46
Somebody just... Faye just subscribed! Thank you very much. That is, for five months, you're amazing, Faye. If you guys have not checked out Pink Ninja Man or Faye, you should. They're both wonderful streamers who are here on the stream now.
45:08
Jenga. Alright, that sound is getting kind of ridiculous. Yes. oh no hey we got a reactor that's funny I wasn't even going for reactors I didn't know I had a reactor lit I was just trying to finish up the grid so i guess now i'll do that for real all right let's see here wait what we need the d just the d can we quote add this? Yes, it's already there. It's exclamation point, need the D. We have Deadpool and we have TNA, which both have the letter D in it somewhere. And inevitably, someone asks that question.
46:41
Alright, relit locks. Got our first lock. Inconceivable! We've got this right here, so let's use it.
46:56
Next lock coming up. Totally missed it. Wow, that was really, really bad. Don't be a child. The player obviously needs the D in the word DNA or Deadpool. Seriously.
47:10
Alright. Last person to do something was Faye. Faye is getting on here. F-E-I. Yeah, when we reset the firmware on this to the beta, it reset all the scores.
47:27
So, Faye, you're on here now. Your name is immortalized until we put up another really good score. And let's see here. But I'll 100% need to be 12 years old. Exactly.
47:42
Survive! And let's see here. I can never go wrong with a little bit of D. Mental breakdown says that. All right, now we're co-opping. Oh shit, Ty just took his jacket off. Shit just... Oh wow, I swore. We don't swear on this stream. But it just got real. What? Are we not doing co-op? Are we doing co-op? That's what we're doing, right? Yeah, yeah, we're doing co-op. Okay, cool. Why did it get real? We're just playing co-op. I know, except the jacket came off.
48:13
And Faye, what I did there... So we've created a... Oh my god, I think we're going to have to kill the sound on this.
48:21
And then go with, yeah, in fact, I'll start prepping that. As soon as Ty's done, we're going to unplug the sound. I really, I can't stand that feedback. That's not the fun feedback.
48:37
Yeah, that's the, ow. Yeah, unfortunately. um you know i called spooky about it and they're like you should try hot glue uh yeah you just got to pull it out so yeah like we were only getting half the speakers the whole time too So what we did, I called Spooky and let him know about the issue right away, and they said, try hot glue. We tried hot glue, and that fixed it for a short amount of time. I then got a replacement cable. We put it in this morning, and apparently it wasn't the cable. It is the amplifier in the game.
49:28
I think it's some socket. Yeah. So what we're going to do is put on some 80s. We don't need sound. We don't need any sound on the game. It's unfortunate.
49:41
No! Somehow we are also in the living room. I purposefully did not group with the living room. Alright, let's try that again.
50:00
There we go. 80s music. Did you drain? Oh. Was it on purpose so you could fix this? Okay, cool. Thank you.
50:17
Wow, this game is very different without sound. Thank you for the wonderful multiball. Oh, yeah. I forgot we were in co-op, and I'm done. Wow, that was... Uneventful. I know. Sad not... The sound on this is amazing.
50:41
Apparently I need a whole new amplifier. I was really hoping it was just the cable. Oh my god. Alright! This is a really good night for pinball. Yeah, yeah. This is a great night for pinball.
51:14
We'll start our first reactor at the end of ball two. I like it. What games are you going to focus on this weekend? I am not touching ACDC. I am going to focus on Fishtails, ACDC,
51:30
Deadpool, and Jurassic Park. I don't know how many games are required. That's the way it was last year.
51:54
That's fine. I didn't want that. Woo! Got it! And Reactor 2 numbers start. It is best of five games. Okay. Mental breakdown. Are you here in the Fort Collins slash Denver area? Don't feel the need to actually respond to that.
52:46
The combo. And you have a tournament tomorrow. Awesome. All right. I really did forget that we were playing co-op.
53:28
There we go. and left orbit. Bounce good. That did not happen. Let's try it again. Very close. I'll take the mystery. That's fine. Thank you finally
54:16
Ball save? Yeah! The game does love me! You've seen the difference And it's getting better All the time There's nothing you and I won't do
54:34
Alright. And there we go. Good backspin on that. There we go. Nice and easy. Easy. All right, now we're ready to get back into the locks.
55:35
Wow. Obviously on purpose. Yeah, this is Brian. Oh, Brian, yeah. We vaguely met, huh? But I'm in league here at Pinball Jones. Awesome. Oh, my gosh.
56:04
Wow. Now I found the backhand. Like, I could not for the life of me find that shot. Alright. Jenga. Now it's a thing just because you butchered what little logic. I mean, not that I had logic behind it. I just like the word Jenga.
56:31
But now I'm always going to say it. Wow, we are out of that multi-ball so quick. When to say... Ugh!
56:43
Alright, alright. I'll stop the world and melt with you. That was okay. Okay, now we're on ball three, and you're about to start reactor three. There's nothing new that I want to do. Good bank shot, obviously on purpose. Oh, yeah.
57:18
I think you're going to get that one back. So I can short plunge it up there. It's a little bit eerie with that. I know. With no sound, it feels very odd. Somebody's going to come in here like, how could you play this game without the sound?
57:38
Well, you know, Synthwave is pretty terrible. Oh my god! Heathen! Because the sound is broken, Karen.
58:05
Nice save! Is that, I assume that is the Facebook Karen meme? Yes, okay, awesome. What'd you do? You tilted! The shaker motor tilted me.
58:25
We're a team now! I didn't touch it! It's on stream. Jenga. So what did the internet think was an appropriate time to say Jenga? Oh. It doesn't. You're not supposed to say it.
59:11
Uh, what am I doing right now? Oh, I am in... I just have to hit the A! Let's try it once again. Yo.
59:33
Obviously intentional. Oh, no, I didn't have that. Did I have one? That's yellow. I feel like I had a... No. When the tower falls over. When the tower falls over, you yell Jenga. There you go. So when the balls fall out, it's kind of like the tower falling over. Oh, that was all for real already? Yeah. Wasn't great. We're going to step it up this time.
60:10
We should set a goal. Like reactor five between six balls. That should be easy, right? Reactor nine? Five? Yeah, reactor nine. Okay, great. There we go. that's uh wait own your tilt the shaker motor didn't do anything no no no no that was that was harsh because the sound is what's so great is I can totally imagine Karen in that because the sound is broken Karen wow well ty brought his game to this one how does that not even get a danger but now the till prob bomb probably fell off yeah by the way after this we're gonna need more beer it is only 11 30 and i'm out uh one more day okay uh stiff digital uh thank you and welcome to the stream Yes, we have lots of lights. If you were on the Discord, I took pictures, because we have one, two, three, four, five, six, seven... We have eight lights around us here.
61:29
And you, if you're new to the stream, are in control of those lights. You can change the colors. All right.
61:49
And George's stream looks amazing, StiffDigital. I agree. Thank you. And I'm out, and it's 10.30, but I work tomorrow. Sari, have a wonderful night. Thank you so much for hanging out. Jenga.
62:16
Boom. Like a pro. That was not like a pro. But that was. That was nice. Alright. I'll take it Ah Karen Which means you stiff digital just followed you are a boss thank you very much that is me taking a uh a figurative or an imaginary hat off thank you so much for joining us and let's see here i meant i'm out of beer but i'm out in like five okay good stay with us for the five to ten don't be a karen and i am really sorry for anybody actually named karen right now
63:47
your parents could have picked a better name well how would they know that it would be a meme in 20 or 30 years is that the karen subreddit that you're referencing there so uh i got to watch a bunch of uh what was the game today it was uh jorgazoo playing Killer Queen Black on the Switch. Oh, nice. I have never played it, but I went and bought it and I am now officially addicted and I still have not played it yet. You're gonna get that back.
64:34
My dad's name is Karen. His dad's name was Karen and his dad's dad was Karen and before him his name was Craig.
64:45
Faye, I don't know what to say about that other than, uh, that's cool. I, yeah. Hey, was, is your dad, and, is your dad Karen the Third? and there's a follow-up to that because uh because i am a third i am george the third very technically i love making you speechless exactly like i didn't know how to take that at all perfect timing no my dad's real name is carl okay but is your dad a karen oh that's wow yeah that's I gotta get creeped out. Yeah.
65:55
So we've got the Pinstadium extremes on here. The problem is that Total Nuclear Annihilation has a stainless steel siding on it as opposed to, I guess, standard metal that Stern has. So the extremes don't actually magnetize to it. And hang on, so I've got them duct taped right now. And Ty just then gave a little pat to the side, Kind of like if you were sitting next to your sister Karen at lunch and she started choking a little bit on her water, you'd give her not the Heimlich maneuver, but that little pat on the back, like, I know you're going to be fine, but if I don't do something, it'll somehow seem to everyone else who's watching that I don't care about you. You know that pat? That's incredibly elaborate. I'm sorry. But, I mean, tell me you could sympathize with that situation. Have you never, like, somebody starts coughing and they're really getting into it and you give them that pat on the back? But you know that your pat isn't doing anything.
67:00
You've never done that? I might have. Okay, so you know what I'm talking about. It's a very strange thing to say.
67:09
No, my dad's real name is Carl. I would like to think we all have a Karen deep inside us in a way. Yes, yes. Faye, that is a really that's really really well put in fact I don't have a button for that um so I'm not gonna press it there we go, verticolor grape now Faye gets it you can sympathize with that situation that was way too hard interesting, there's some interesting colors here Jenga. Oh, no!
67:51
It didn't trigger. Oh, my... Goodness? Yep, goodness, yes. Am I misunderstanding the scoring? It looks like one and two have the same score. Stiff Digital, we are playing in co-op mode which is sense essentially gives us six balls between the two of us to obtain uh any one of a number of different goals right now we are stuck we're trying to get to reactor three i would have been happy with reactor five but this guy here before we started said why don't we just go for reactor nine and uh i felt like that was a bit of a tall order personally. So anyway, because we are in co-op mode, our scores are always going to be the same with the exception of the last digit. The last digit represents how many reactors that particular person has actually destroyed. So because we both end in one, we've both destroyed a reactor.
69:04
And Faith... Sorry, did I say something about six balls? Come on! I think there's only four balls in this game.
69:16
Wow. Careful. Double danger. See, I'll own that one. All right. Nicely done. Nicely done. You've got three targets, the R, the D, and the destroy. Now you've got the destroy done.
69:47
And you've got the D. You just need the R, which is not a pirate's favorite letter. That'd be the C.
69:58
Still... still waiting. Oh, you got it! And you're going to get the ball save. Awesome. So anytime you destroy a reactor, you get a short ball save, which is perfect when you do it after draining your penultimate pinball in multiball mode. Proper use of penultimate. I always properly use penultimate. It's a wonderful word.
70:28
how jumentous of you to uh to recognize that and uh i never realized that was what the last digit was dirty toes yes and four player co-op with two people after this no no it's just two two-person co-op great job by the way boom jumentous by the way for anyone else who is following along means to smell of horse urine.
70:59
Which did not fit that situation even a little bit. What is the word? Jumentous? Spell it. J-U-M-E-N-T-O-U-S. Is that made up? No. I mean, aren't all words just made up? Is that made up in one source? No, it's an actual word. I love crazy weird words. I used to study them.
71:23
And by study, I don't mean like I went to school and got an English degree, like, I just purchased all those cool books at Barnes & Noble. It's like, what's a dib-dob? And a knock-tooth? And all these other, like, crazy, I love those kind of books. What is a dib-dob? I don't remember. I have that book, though. I think it's right over there.
71:49
That one little blue car is so... Woo! Dirty Toes! I also would really like to see the endgame here.
72:08
Jenga. Oh no! Dirty... That was a good bounce, or bank, off the side. Completely intentional. Hey, that's how I roll. Everything is always intentional. Check this out.
72:37
That would have been amazing. That would have been really cool had it have worked. like even called it i i felt pretty pretty pretty dang cool about that honestly we built this city i love etymology yes i do too he plays the mama
73:14
This is ball three, player two. Do I go for the multi-ball, or do I go for Reactor 4's death, destroying? I think I go for the multi-ball.
73:44
All right, I guess we just need the D and the A. What, did they go for the multi-ball? You ended that so fast. We really did. That's really surprising.
74:08
All right, cool. Oh. Ah! How frustrating! What would you say? You do here. We do not play pinball here.
74:25
Apparently. Alright, we're doing this again. This time, we're gonna hit reactor 5. We have 6 balls. We do it individually. All the time. Not today.
74:35
We'll try. Alright. I'm gonna go get beer. Oh, beer. Do you want a beer as well? No? You're good? Okay. Just keep the stream going. Are you really chatting? Um, I'm chatting. Be a carrot. No. Why would I?
75:14
chat this is for you asmr yes i really want to hit those uh i really want to hit this just the whole pinball machine
75:44
I just wasted the ball save again. I should have been going for the grid. Jenga. Did we get it yet? No! Oh my gosh.
76:27
That was frustrating. Ah! One destroy. Alright. Perfect. Here's what we want to get back into Multiball.
77:14
Ooh, two mortar lights. Yah! Moonbeam Arcade, welcome to the stream. Yes, this pin is amazing. I still haven't decided if I like Opera over Chrome. Still using it, though. I have not tried the new Opera. I've heard good things. but that may have been from you.
77:47
I feel like that's kind of like putting the word you're trying to define in the definition. Moonbeam Arcade says, Surprise, you're playing it without sound. This pin has killer audio. Moonbeam, it really does. It's pretty killer. Yes, it's amazing. We love it. Unfortunately, the... And yeah, the 80 tunes are fun. No, we started the stream that way. The amplifier is, the connector on the amplifier in the pinball machine is busted. And we were just getting a whole bunch of feedback, as opposed to actually getting to hear the really great sounds of the pin. And it wasn't pushing audio out to both sets of speakers. It's really problematic. I was hoping it was just the cable that was busted on it, but I replaced the cable today, and the issue's persistent.
78:50
No, well, I mean, the game has been really reliable. The audio is the only problem we've encountered. And when I called Spooky originally, they told me try hot glue and then try replacing the cable, and if it was still an issue, to give them a call back. and I think they said they'd replace it. Replace the amplifier.
79:16
Let's see here. It's on Chromium so it runs very similar, but there are little things that don't carry over. Okay.
79:29
That was particularly sensitive. It's just the destroys. Wow. And you have a multiball set to go. Yeah. Wow. Thank God we're on a team, right? Jenga!
79:48
I don't know. Well, that sucks. We've still got to finish our grid here. There we go. Still the same two shots. Let's give it a go.
80:44
Here we go. I'm getting it. One more. Totally got it. Both times. Totally fine. I don't know what's going on. I feel like it was flashing on me there.
81:08
Did you mean me, Moonbeam? Oh opera Yeah I wonder if he meant that or if he was talking about TNA And let see here You can also set it to limit how much CPU and RAM it will use while gaming which has been pretty cool. Awesome. And have you done a no multiball challenge on TNA so you can get the furthest without multiball? I have not. And I know there's a bunch of weird mini-games in here, especially in groups of people, that we really just haven't played around with. Do you want to try that? I... I would be willing to give one of those a go. I don't know exactly how to do it, though.
82:08
Uh, we could do the high, uh... I know there's a minigame on here with a single reactor high score. Are these all just, like, you keep track of them? No, no. Or are they built in? Yeah, it's built in. Whoa, really? Yeah.
82:32
How do you initiate those? That's a really good question. probably in the settings to set it to like it probably defaults to 9 reactors but you can set it to 1 oh my god really wish we had the audio right now I like the no multiball one that sounds fun it sounds fast I want to hear Reactor 6 and 7 again.
83:14
There's something really cool in this game about getting to a reactor you haven't gotten to before and hearing new music.
83:24
This is the most painful reactor I've ever done. I'm sorry? This is the most painful reactor I've ever done. No, that one Okay Hey What a tease Dinka
84:00
All right. Looks like you got three done. Four is on the way. Wow. Danger. Yep. Double danger. Tilt. Al Anonymous coming in with the host kind of hot in these rhinos yes Al Anonymous coming in hot thank you so much That was me taking my... Okay, that was me just really sucking it up there.
85:03
And we've got ourselves a ball lock. Mystery! And lots of tilts, yeah. Wow. I deserve it for missing the lock shot. Like, missing the lock shot is about the only unexcusable thing in this game.
85:34
Did you see the flipper on that one? Was the 80s like a time when it was just okay to be creepy? Yes.
85:58
Very much so. Oh, no! All right. I think your upper slings are pretty weak. Maybe you need more rubber?
86:17
The upper slings? Yeah. They used to be a lot snappier. Now they feel really weak. I don't know what to say about that. Should I take offense to that, Chet?
86:38
Oh no, that sucked. you have weak flippers no no slings sorry you have weak slings you can say that all you want about that 14 so it's not gonna i have to hit it up there really dirty in order to get it to stop.
87:08
Hey! Of course, now it's on the wrong side. You can backhand it. Really? Yeah. It's a tough shot. Is it backflip? No, it's a backhand.
87:30
Almost. I wonder if you hit it earlier Oh if it might catch on one of the other ones Like if you hit it earlier Like right as it's coming up through here Will it get upwards Oh and then maybe bounce down Okay let's try that Let's try these crazy moat things Are they in here Yes yeah let's go in there let's try it Dirty toes I don't get that Uh, alright.
88:04
Annihilation after, yeah, click that. And let's make it one. Alright. That's it. What was the other thing they said? No multiball? Oh, that one I don't know is a mode, or if that's just a... So, Faye, when you mention that, are you saying that we just don't do it?
88:25
Or that it's not possible? because I like the idea of being in multi-ball, especially when we're doing one reactor and you get the multiplier because then it kind of makes sense to potentially go for your fourth ball and get a 4x on it.
88:49
Okay. Let's see it. So this is about who gets the most points and you have to destroy the reactor. If you don't destroy it, you're out.
89:03
How? Wait. Oh, I know what this is. Okay. There's other stuff in the game. You can max out your bonus. You can score points. You can get mysteries.
89:19
You can get super slings. No, there's only one way to do this. Okay. Those other things aren't worth points Wow Very close We still get three balls right? Yeah yeah
89:49
We are young Party, party, he said Don't stop Thank you. Alright! Oh, shoot!
96:18
Oh, my God! George, calm down. Calm down. We're fine. We're all fine here. Can you backhand that? Not cool, game.
96:42
Oh, my God. Woo. All right. That's stressful. All right, all right. It's just a long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long. And maybe I'm not good at all at talking.
97:32
Don't you know I'm not good at all at all at all at all at all. It's a dream. But I'm not good at all at all at all. All right, all right. Where did the power of grace go?
98:12
There we go. All right. That is twice! I did not destroy oh that was just ball two okay okay okay that was just ball two all right if you guys are just joining us we're seeing who can get the highest score with a one ball uh total nuclear sorry one reactor total nuclear annihilation that's bad and George definitely took the lead just then oh no oh you got the pop bumper I know what are you going to get Oh my god, it'd be awful if it was 500,000 points.
99:30
I don't think that's an actual... Maybe it was 50,000, even so. Wow! Oh god. Oh no! all right here we go oh no don't hit it oh dang it game all right all right
100:26
oh all right we're cool we're cool game we're cool that's it cool cool cool cool cool cool oh no you wanted that okay okay i wanted the multi balls to get the multiple i wanted to crack a million you're just gonna win yes okay okay cool again that was really good that was like this mode a lot yeah this mode is a lot of wow look at that with the bonuses and stuff that's awesome You're first.
101:16
Alright, guys. Here we go. Round two. Let's see if we can crack a million. That would be kind of fun.
101:41
Apparently, I am not a golfer. And I gave you a lock. Grr, that's frustrating. yep what's that drop again it's got like a smudge on it laughing I managed to do this wow I have you beat by 410 points laughing alright it's 1.30 It feels like one of the only shows I've seen inside Fighting about this thing that I've become I'm taking life to take me away from you There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do I guess it rains down in Africa All right. Do I really want to go for this right now? No, I want to go for multiball. Do I start the reactor again? I like multiball.
103:29
I mean... I Down in Africa Woo! Alright Yes That is like the 12th time I've seen you do that tonight.
104:41
You're like that guy from Mr. Deeds. You're very sneaky. I don't know if you've ever seen that with Adam Sandler. I don't remember it. It's been a while. Okay.
104:55
Alright, alright, alright. What is his role in that one? There is... Well, Adam Sandler is... Turns into a... Or becomes a millionaire. He's just like a really good guy who's given lots of money. Okay, okay. I don't remember the details surrounding said million... Oh, wow, you left me again with the full stack. What a friend. Yeah.
105:26
This would be a really good money match, JK. Oh! I mean, I did get the 3X, but that still sucks. Alright.
106:00
That's not a huge number that you have to surpass. Total nuclear annihilation for 100,000 points. I wonder if you get $99,999 for every reactor you destroy. There's probably a lot more to it.
106:18
I wonder if that multiplies. I have no idea what I was talking about prior to me accidentally or prematurely destroying that reactor the wind can I take this one off You don't want that one? Why not? If you wanted to hit it. Oh. Well, hit it.
107:04
Okay. You should go first. I will go first. All right. Give me your lock. Yeah. All right.
107:46
Jenga. Forgot the last few times. No! Thank you.
