Thank you very much. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. You see the hat? I am Mrs. Nesbitt. Ha ha ha! Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Hello! Welcome, my name is George, this show is Don't Panic Flip, and tonight we have Ty Stansby Acid Bucket here to help us play some Star Trek. And we're coming on a half hour earlier, and that is for two reasons. The first actually is not a reason at all. It's just SpaceX. You guys, tomorrow, I think it's at 2.53 or something like that. It's at a really weird time tomorrow in mountain time, and 4 o'clock and some change. SpaceX will be launching two people into space. Check it out if you get a chance. Really, really hope everything goes well. and beyond that also my internet dies apparently 433 EST thank you Fliptronic and on top of that my internet is now dying consistently at 1215 every day I did a little bit of playing with it today apparently I am getting really close to a gigabit down if I plug directly into my modem and unplug everything else that's as far as I took it if I go back to my office or the direct wire that I have run upstairs, I'm getting about 60 to 70. So there is either a problem with my cables, a problem with interference, a problem with my networking equipment, or something on my network is utilizing roughly about 800 megabits of bandwidth at all times. It's one of those things. So, yeah, we're going to fix something. We're going to diagnose it and fix it. But beyond that, Ty is going to help play, exactly. But let me show you guys what we got here. Star Trek, beautiful game. This is a really lackluster color DMD, so I apologize right now. It probably is Wolfman utilizing all of my bandwidth. Turn it to black and white. Right? Just actually? Well, oh, I'm there. I should change it to black. I might actually do that at some point. Like, don't even, the colors are so awful. Pinball mayhem. the Pinsomniac Fliptronic Pink Ninja Man. You guys, welcome, and thank you so much for hanging out. And hi-hi, share and enjoy. Okay, cool. You guys, let's do this. We're going to get going. First game, and I'm going to throw some music on. So, Ty, you want to go first? Awesome.ик We had a test game going, by the way, just a fun for playing earlier. And Ty's like, I have no idea how to play this game. So, of course, that means he's going to blow it up, right? And on his first ball, he put up 46 million, hit, I think, a couple different multi-balls, and completed, I think, four of the six modes. It was a very good ball one for him. And then I turned it off, exactly. There's a shot. There we go. I'll take it away, team. Shoot the mini-targets. I think the mini-targets are those ones. Alright, alright. Apparently we need to hit the mini-targets. Get around, get around. Ugh. I, like, I tapped the mini-targets? There it is. Are you going for narrow 3D? You were going for the gravity, and now weight being on narrow and 3D. Uh, I am going... Oh, come on. That was mean. If I had the premium, that wouldn't have happened. and I'm going Kobayashi. I'm going to get points. Okay, he's going points. It's new. That is new, yes. It's not a Yeti. That is a Yeti. It's a new Yeti. That is a new Yeti. Not worth the away team at Nero. Consomniac, that could very well be the case. I'm not sure how to play this game for points, short of just, like, kick its butt over and over. Like, just don't dream. That seems pretty solid. Are you running the A6300 on the Playfield? So, Chris, Fliptronic, that is an excellent question, especially after the second stream cast we had the other day. I am not. I know it's going to be hard to believe, but that's actually the Sony Handycam 405 on the playfield. Clicktronic, yep, since I'm the Arcade. T-Mac, welcome! Kobayashi Strat is better than Nero's Restrat. Okay! And Zach says that I'm believing it. Yes, Clicktronic, that is still the 405! The 405 is amazing. It really is for as inexpensive as it is. Uh-oh. Sounds like somebody's got a case of the Monday. Wolfman, welcome to the stream. Did Titanic turn its old over? Yes. I've never seen it look that good. But, Sonic, I don't know if Manu said it enough, but it's lighting, lighting, and lighting. And, Andrew Burglar, what up? No panic. Hey, what up? Welcome to the stream. The Handcam is all about the lighting, and ZMack for long game maybe, but you're better than me. ZMack is amazing. Yes. Alright, okay, apparently that's going to auto-blunt. Cool. Cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool. No doubt. One, two, three. All right. That did not complete. What? I just want control, please! That's cool, that's a cool game. I see how it is, I see how it is. Letronic said, well, time to buy more lights, I guess. The 405 is the worst freeway. Well, then, I have driven plenty on the 5 and the 405, and I would completely agree, they all suck. Fliptronic, you can't go wrong with more life. I know, Fliptronic, I'm probably going to pick up the new Pinstadium Extremes in the near future. And I will probably run both that one down on the glass and one up. Consomniac, I've heard people talk about the Nero 3 strat, but I don't think I've ever seen anyone successfully pull it off in tournament play. Like, it's really good in theory, but in actuality it doesn't work out. The Paul Collins guys and me basically use that. After you activate the left spinner and start the fumo, the game's rolling hard. And you can stay away from most of the orbs. I can't hit it. Oh, the lock shot? Yeah. It's like almost exactly halfway down from the left corner. Oh, that was terrible. Oh yeah, look at these scores. These are solid right here. Okay, okay. Okay. Man, I cannot find that backhand yet. Here we go. The short answer is stairs. What was that? Oh, wait, why are stairs bad? Oh, man. Hey, so I'm still confused on what happened to the basement. Yep, yep, yep. No, no, no. That was obviously a mistake. Woo! Come on, game. Work with me here. Do I go into the multiball? Yeah No I don't Obviously Super obvious Oh my gosh Nope Do you go multiball? Sure Alright This is the garage. Replay! Woo-hoo! All right. First game down, second game up. Do you want first or second, sir? First it is. First it is. I don't mind just alternating. I don't really. Okay, I'll go first. We're going to alternate then. Wait, do you mean alternating who goes first or alternating play conclusions? Okay. Alright. Is the Titanic's run out of room to marry people? Well, I had it in your play. It reboots really quick. So go ahead. And the DMV stays lit all the time. It's cool. It's like a clock. One, two, and here we go. Let's see here. Or was the basement actually the garage, says Wolfman. Not the case. I can tell you, and so can Titanic and Pinsomniac, because they have moved many pinball machines in this house from the garage specifically to the basement. We're just not doing that anymore. You have to develop a strategy around how many modes you expect to complete. P.S. I am an OG Nerd 3 player. Nerd 3. I don't know what an OG Nerd 3 player is. Nero 3. What is it? Nero. Oh, Nero. Got it. Why am I seeing nerd? Oh, it's that nerd. Okay, cool. If you ever play Wenger's Star Trek, don't go after Kobayashi. The table will destroy you. Okay? Order and planning is key. Prime directive, destroy the drill. Space jump, Nero, save the Enterprise and Klingon. Never play Ryan's Star Trek. Stupid press play, not letting me in. There's one. Get there. Nope, that's coming back around. There's one. Oh, come on. You could have given me that shot. Here's we do. All right, guys. All right, guys. Oh, my God. He just ran in. Flipper Snapper, you're amazing. Thank you so much for that raid. My hat's off to you. Did you have fun? Was it an amazing stream? And did you finally get to end of the line? Those are the three questions I have for you. Let's see here. Here's what we do. All right, show them. Ready, guys? Let's do this. We rock! Magic! Oh, my God, he just ran in. I love it. Flipper Snapper, round two on the raid notification. Thank you again. I'm going to keep thanking you every time we get that notification. The double raid. Thank you for the two extra. Leroy Jenkins call out. You can never get enough. Sorry, you were on mute because I was doing way too many things. No worries. Let me ask those three questions again. Flipper Snapper, did you have fun? I don't remember what the second question was and the third question is did you get to end of the line? FlipperSnapper did pick up the GT tonight. Congratulations! What was it? Oh, it wasn't popping up on my screen the first time. No worries! I will take a double raid any day. Ah, Metallica. I miss that game. I agree. Every once in a while, I'm like, I kind of miss Metallica. What's funny is Metallica was the only game I feel like I never got sick of the music. And I don't like Metallica. See, and that's kind of funny. We've talked about a Beastie Boys pin for a while now. By the way, there's a middle button, and these represent missiles, and you can use the middle button to damage that, which opens it up once you hit the vengeance some number of times. What represents missiles? Sorry, the yellow lights going up the middle represents, like, Yeah, how many torpedoes do you have? Sorry, missiles, torpedoes. I am not a Trekkie, which is also why that notification going out was so offensive. It was great. It said, step phasers to stun and let's apparate, which I thought was great. Because that's Star Trek, Star Wars, and Harry Potter. Because if you can make a Harry Potter reference, always make a Harry Potter reference. DMACC is not playing Metallica for three months that's sad news right there so still in Space Jump there it is alright, we're cool That's fine. I'm all good on the pops up there. Gotta have my pops. There we go. Mission start and the final target. And a gold medal! Woohoo! So that means that I did enough shots in some time period, I think. There's one. Alright, that sucks. I'll take that. That's typically pretty safe, it seems. That is not. That hurt my left arm. A lot. I hate getting old. I will work on that. Let's just not get old. Oh, wow. That did not go all the way through. Yeah, it was worth it. It was definitely worth it. You don't give good bonuses. This is really in the game. Let's see. I drained on my final CIU. I feel like that stands for something. What is it? Crank it up. Crank it up. Thank you. Had two coffins and sparkies. But yeah, 28 combos, 185 million. I'm for whom the bell tolls. That's awesome. Congratulations. Yeah, George, my highest in this particular table was 177, Collins, UC was 345, and you got 448. Yeah, that is awesome. Seriously. Also, you guys, if you have not checked out Flipper Snapper, amazing streamer, she's awesome. Just give her a follow. She's killing it, obviously, on Metallica. Insomniac says, I drove by this weekend in code. Man, I really, really want to, like, interview a couple of different operators on stream just to, not only, by the way, you want to hit that one. Do the missiles do anything when I'm in this code? Not right now. You've got to hit it. Like that, there you go, now you have a three ball multiple. What are the muscles doing now? Nothing? That's a really good question. I think it ultimately gets you closer to maybe a scooper. It's not important to progressing towards what's that mode? Kobayashi? So I haven't scooper-ed it out. Yeah, I need to go through and read all the rules again. I wouldn't say amazing. Clipper snapper. You're doing it, and you're doing it consistently. That is a massive step in the right direction. And I'm trying to fandango all my old equipment. Yeah, and that's great. In fact, we were just talking about that the other night and how easy it is to, before you get into a rhythm with streaming, you end up getting a ton of streaming equipment to get yourself really high-quality components, but the content is still key as NPCs receive it. Oh, Inventions 4, what does that mean? That's when you're in Inventions mode, which is the multiball I think you were just saying. Okay. Maybe. Okay. I could be making that up. So you actually found the bonus there. It's not me that said you made that up. Well, he was in vengeance mode. Cool, cool, cool. By the way, we call that a stall. Like, think old school hacky sack days. if you were a kid in the 90s and owned a hacky sack. So I just opened that up. Let's try that again, shall we? Easier from this side, for whatever reason, and as I say that, it's actually super hard. Oh my god. I'm already on double. There it is. Okay, Okay, so in vengeance... Uh-oh. Somebody did something. Is that for sending you a pin? What is... Oh, yes. Not a pinball machine. Oh. Which is what that may have sounded like. An actual, like, pin. Yeah, an actual pin. Lana? Lana? Lana. Lana! Oh, Faze here. I can tell that one. All right, all right. I mean, I will take that one. Oh, my. Why, game? Just calm down for a second here. We're complete. We're fine. All right. All right. Apparently, that's it for vengeance. Why is that open right now? I feel like I just broke it. I'm just going to hit it. Did you see that? Did you break it? I feel like it got caught in a situation where it didn't know that that was possible, so it kicked it out immediately and then put up the wall. It was very, very much like, whoa, you shouldn't be in here. Get out. All right, now the door's closed. The plastic is already gripped. Yeah, the plastic above it's already gripped. All right. I can hit the heck out of that mission start. That one I really struggle with. There's a tilt. And yeah exactly Thank you Pidsomnia Yeah Happy are going right into a TPN Thank you. And there was much rejoicing So cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool. That just happened. That was great. You guys, part of the TPN network, which we are, we have straight down the middle, flipping out pinball, Ray Day pinball, one iPod, one pinball, myself, TurboGrafx-7, the pinball mafia, Emily and Dr. John, What the Flip, and finally, MPT3K. You guys, the Pinball Network is just a collection of people who all enjoy creating content on the Twitch side and streaming it. That's it. And if you have not given these other people a follow, you definitely should do so. So let's switch back over to play. And I'm off. Apparently, unfortunately, you guys missed out on time just a minute ago. Somebody keeps their stream deck on the pin, and I may have accidentally smashed that button. Thank God I took the start and stop stream now off of that, because that also happened. Okay. There's one. Cool. Really? Nothing! All right, you're back up! I just gotta find the shot. That's all. I think you need a stream deck lock bar with buttons in the metal. I don't... Yeah. Just move the... It's like wireless and you just move that lock bar around. I need to go watch last night's VOD of Ghostbusters. Oh, man. There was definitely a little bit of a TED Talk having to do with operators and what's going to happen in the future here. and I apologize for that now. But speaking of TED Talks, let's talk about SpaceX. Give me your secrets, Lick Arcade. Real talk, though. How the heck are you getting C920s and 405s looking that good? Lick Arcade. We, with MPG3K, did a stream very recently where we showed the differences between four different cameras, a Sony A6400, a CX405 Sony Handycam, a 920 Logitech, and a Razer Kiosk. And it was great. It was super informative. I feel like we learned a lot because we didn't know what to expect. But it comes down to lighting. It is always lighting. We can't actually see anything when we play. It's so bright. Oh, yeah. It's super bright. I mean, it doesn't bother me, but I have really bad eyesight. This is the one time of the day where I can actually see things. I'm just kidding. Oh, yeah. That counts. Alright, right orbit. There we go, there we go. Around, captured. Totally captured it. Nope. Nope, we're fine, we're fine. I'm going to tilt out of that one there. This is a great game. Alright, let's try to focus on Bob. It's fun too because I adjusted the pitch today to exactly 7 degrees. I had it at 7.39, 7.4. And I dropped the pitch down to 7.0 thinking, that's awesome, I've been playing it harder than it had to be. And it's been great, it's been solid, good gaming. Nice slap, too soon. You got it, you got it. Now I have that, wait, Moana? George's forehead shows how much light there is. George looks like he's got some sun. He's shiny. You tried to death save! Okay. Okay, okay. Z-Mac, I'm guessing you prefer to play with your glasses. Weird, I can't stand it. Z-Mac, I can't see the play field without my glasses. If I could take my glasses off, I would. and I went roughly about six months without taking my contacts out before contacts were meant to be slept in for more than like a week at a time when I was a kid, and now I can't wear contacts anymore. I've never got an eye infection. I think it just like wore off some protective layer on my eyes. So now if I wear contacts, my eyes will water constantly. I once went two weeks of wearing contacts probably about three or four years ago. I'm like, I want to wear contacts again. Have you thought about LASIK? I have thought about LASIK. Are you selling it right now? Have you heard of our Lord and Savior, the flying spaghetti monster? I could. Oh. It's cool. It's cool. All right, let's just get rid of that dump truck of a game and move on. It wasn't lined up on the camera properly. That's why. Hold on, let me move this really. I'm Lord Howard Hurts, and I'm going to put the hurt on you. Now it's pretty. Lord Howard Hurts, welcome to the stream. Dome Space. Oh, wait, wait. Pez Johnson. Pez, welcome to the stream. man, with my sense of progress, if you don't death save, you are not trying. I feel like that is just a really awful habit to get into. It's funny. I was watching Jack Danger the other day, and he was saying, I'm trying to get into the habit of not death saving. And he was talking about what happens if you accidentally do it, and he goes, no, we're not going to death save. We're not going to death save. And the ball started going down the right out lane, and immediately, without even thinking, he death saved right then. That is the exact reason. And it wasn't, it didn't, like, it was so not intentional. It was just a reflex. That is exactly why I don't ever want to get into that. Now, that is perfectly legal if you survive. The, if you survive the tilt bob. There's no tilt bob. It's not real. I have tilted twice. If there's no tilt bob, I am picking up and throwing the pinball machine. Instead of just a little slide thing. contacts terrify me. See, Matt, if you can wear contacts... It definitely was really interesting, by the way, the first time I had contacts, when my dad was like, you just gotta get in there and touch your eye. And I'm like, why in the world would you ever touch your eye? Isn't that disgusting? And eventually you just get over that. It's easy. I said the death save comment is a poke to you, don't panic flip. I have such a bad habit of death saving every time. Death saving is fine. flipping after is the illegal part. You're not wrong. You're not wrong. I'm just going to go ahead and move this pinball machine back to center here. No tilt-bob is bad for the stream. The play field goes off camera quickly. Hand your burglar. There is always a tilt-bob in the machine. Yes. Yes. We got a bronze. Here we go. What does it want me to hit? I don't want to hit that. That's dangerous. I guess I'll go with the lock shot. All of the shots are dangerous. Hi, I'm Faye, and I'm a death save-aholic. I copied Z-Man. I need help. It's been two streams since my last death save. Do I not get a free Mozart? You are still in Nero, apparently. But it's solid. It does look very solid to me. Okay. Maybe it's because that's lit. I think you're in destroy the vengeance mode. Oh. Once again. Well, actually, no, you've got light mission over there on the left. You can light a mission first. Don't go in there. Light the mission first. That's probably good, right? Yeah, yeah. You can lock up all of them. Yeah, yeah. So, this starts a mission and that starts a mission? Yes. The other one. All right. I'm sorry, I stopped this. Sabotage! It was almost that deep. I have beer on my feet. I apologize to y'all. I'm gonna go grab a beer and take a sip. Oh, brutal. Nope, not killing it. I'm still killing it. I'm sorry. I started a vengeance, but I don't forget the ball. No, no, I got this. You take care of yourself. God, that's... I'm kidding. It's good for life. I like your little beard. All right. It's good. It's good. Thankfully, it's the garage. All right. And, by the way, this is for you guys. Now, this is a local craft beer everybody should be familiar with. It's called Bud Light Platinum. No, it's not. I can't say anything else positive about Bud Light Platinum. But it doesn't give me a headache, so. Critical miss is breaking your hand trying to save the ball. Have you ever hurt yourself in pinball yet? I just tried to hit the start button. When I first started, I was wearing a scarf. Okay. I remember your hand. You were wearing... Oh, that wasn't for pinball. That was for my family. So while that was injured, yeah, I hurt my hand a lot. Because I was on the sun stage with a stranger. There we go. Mission start. And we hit the one that was highlighted. I'm not sure what the significance of that is. Let's go face jump. There's one. Two. I'll take the, I'll take it. All right, here we go. Cannot get that shot. All right, so that's not lit, that's not lit. Let's go there and then try and hit the right orbit. There it is. Nice little catch. Up there. Just going to be one of these knives. Totally one of these knives. Wait, wait, wait, wait, okay, wait, I heard something about choosing a class. Uh, wait a second. Nah, a crit is when you start the next ball at zero points. Hey, Ty's done that a few times. Yeah. Uh, my name is Faye. I tilt out games in every tournament. I can't help myself. But, uh, I have the upper body strength of a jar of damage. Hey, you'd be surprised. Pretty strong. Hi Mark. Choosing a class like rogue would be cool. Oh, I'm Mark and I'm scared of nudging into worse trouble, so I don't nudge as much as I should. Okay? Okay? I have the upper body strength of a twitch chat. A jar of mayo is bested me plenty of times. I've hurt and bruised myself many times from pinball. Never anything lasting. DMACC, this shoulder right now is in intense pain every day. It got worse. It was starting to get better, and I think pinball has made it worse. And I never had any of those problems when I was younger. I tried to hit the start button again. All right, we've got a silver and a lock and a mission start. Ball one locked. And that's hella progress by ball three. There we go. All right. So we've got a lock shot there, but I missed it. Still haven't found that shot yet. Easier from this side, for whatever reason. It's all in my head. So that's ball lock number two. That's just luck that that did not drain. We got ourselves a bronze there. And that feels about as good as it does. All right, now we're ready to go to another mission, Heather. I've got that going. Now we're going near you. You're paying your money. You must be a billionaire if you're wasting your money.

And we haven't even touched on it yet, have not even hit the button, but y'all, we saw pictures for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles today. Okay. All right, looks like one more shot here. Totally right ramp. We're fine. We're all fine here. That's not good. And mission start, final shot. All right, here we go. Now we're on destroy the drill. And it's silver. I'll take the silver. I'm totally fine with that. And I know I feel like I broke the seal on Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, but let's not do it yet. Not yet. Because I want to be there and re-chat as we dive into TMNT. Because I am so flipping excited about that. Okay. What's lit? All right, so we've got another, I think our final lock shot. Probably should have waited for the final, but yeah, that was idiotic. I'm like, oh, there's a lock, go for it. When a joke pinball D&D campaign suddenly turns into a talk about a hypothetical political pinball. You missed a fair amount of time. I apparently have missed a lot of good stuff that I feel like is very funny. As long as everybody is being respectful when it comes to politics. I'll take that last. Super easy. Barely an inconvenience. One target. Super easy. All right, all right. Keep it going, keep it going up there. Yeah, just give me all the bonus. I'll tilt out and completely waste it in just a few minutes. Here. Good. Thank you. So now we're just in the multivolve. Apparently I can't start the final mode. Uh... Oh no! No, I got that extra bullet! Oh, come on! Ugh. That was ball three, right? Yeah, left. Alright. That wasn't bad. Alright, and Sean... Sean Staves. Sean Staves! Oh my gosh, that took me way too long to get... I love finding, reading people's names. I feel like it oftentimes is like really cool license plates on cars. Let me set that a few times. All right, I've got to scroll up now. Thank you. Here's what we do. All right, thumbs up. Ready, guys? Let's do this. Zero! Legends! You maybe have a slip around of the way very quickly. Jedi McMuffin, you're amazing. Thank you very much for that raid. How was your stream? How did you do? And what were you playing this evening? I went on much earlier than I normally go on, so I ended up missing out on stuff as I was prepping up here. Leroy Day. Oh, Jurassic Park. Awesome. And if you guys are just joining us tonight, we are playing some Star Trek. Okay, it's going to auto-plunge. I've got to remember that, apparently. There's one. There's two. Three. Four. Are you kidding me right now? Come on. A little bit of control. Thank you. If only I could capitalize on that save and hit a shot. There it is. I'll take the ball save. Yeah, that's a good ball. Oh, that's what's happening. That sucks. I'm going to have to replace the balls, too. Hold on a sec. So the post just to the right, you can see that the rubber has cracked and it's down, so I need to put a new rubber on that. That's funny. And by funny, I mean not funny even a little bit. You don't have to replace the ball. Oh, yeah, because they've been hitting metal directly. How has it always been like that? I don't know how long it's been like that, but it's been like that for longer than tonight. I have that shot dialed in. That is frustrating. Okay, now I'm going to go back up and read all of the political chat. Let's see here. Going back up. Probably physically, mentally, and financially. Oh, wow. I missed a lot. Hi. I'm Becca and I have a giant bruise on my leg from trying to nudge Star Trek. Where the mouse cursor is. I'm sorry? Dave's comment where the mouse cursor is. That's the start of what it is. Where the masked cursor is? Mouse cursor. Oh, okay. Got it. Only definite bruise I have ever attained is on my heart. I got addicted to death days. You've got to teach me what it's one of it. I hurt my heart, Chad. Prince for life. I hurt my heart in pinballs too many times. I mean, to do it right, you gotta get critical roll in on it. Oh, you meant, like, actually, like, to critical roll people. Got it. And... Um... Let's see here. I want a table voiced by Al Gore. Gun-style plungers are no joke. I do really like that, by the way. Did you ever install the cool gun on Pirates of the Caribbean? Very expensive mod. It is, but your game is worth, I don't know, like, 50,000% of that. It's insignificant as compared to the price of the game. Very good, Molly. I already said thank you to Molly. I'm pretty confident pinball is going to cause me issues later in life. DMACC, almost guaranteed. The cool thing about pinball is that the community is so cool, and it's so awesome how you can see all of the dads and moms that are there and everybody. like they actively look out for you and etcher i think that it's just awesome to see that and the the camaraderie that's there it's it's so cool it's a um i don't even know how to explain it it's better than it ever was in uh when i did like baseball and football as a kid i'm really going slowly back through chat i'm gonna take forever to get caught up so can you just keep playing okay cool gotta have a bill clinton monica multiball oh my god there's a political I got it now. I daydreamed that one as well. A political table. Pick Democrat or Republican at the beginning and accumulate electoral votes to get to a third. And the call-outs would just skewer everyone on all sides. Like, if you choose independent at the start, you only get one ball. But you do get access to, like, a righteous multiball or something. You get access to all the modes. and no pinball talk is a joke uh through that I'm not mad when a joke pinball D&D campaign suddenly turns into talk about okay got it I remember reading that the only thing I respect is respect itself I don't even know what that means uh middle aged guy could dream something it's alright to respect disrespect there we go Jedi braided up here we go there you are fliptronic wonderfully said by the way uh Wherever you go, there you are. Was that... That was from... Willy Wonka, right? Was that Wonka? You got it, Dave. Trying to figure this 10-biz out. And how's the sexy party going on in here? A couple of interesting conversations, which I just recapped, apparently. Shenanigans. Great, a lot of Death Day talk and other shenanigans. New challenge, always collect away teams during modes. Peds, that's actually kind of fun. You know what the difference is between you and me? Uh-oh. Can we get in there? I'll make this one good. Can we get a pinball machine up and down the basement? I would do that, absolutely. Almost to the bottom. Almost there. We've got... Girlfried Crazy. Thank you. Very much for that follow. Getting us one closer. So our total of 900 followers in our next Translight giveaway. Guys, 1,000 is going to be crazy. Just right now. I'm going to wear a tank top. That's actually the only thing I've really thought out. We're going to give away a bunch of stuff. I don't know what those things are. What? Keep them as my tattoos? So I promise when we hit 1,000 to wear a tank top and I'll show off. It is... The tattoos are silly because I love puns. By the way, Penn Stadium, thank you very much for those bits, and welcome to the stream. Penn Stadium, did you see MPG3K's and my stream the other night on four different cameras and three four different lighting situations that included the Penn Stadium stream? It was awesome. We did it all live on camera. It was super fun to do. there. If you're wasting your money, watch Jedi McMuffin gifting a tier one sub to Z-Mac. Z-Mac, enjoy those emotes. Jedi McMuffin, you're amazing. Thank you so much for the gifted sub. And hey, you guys helped me hit goals and I will put on no sleeves. Yes, it was totally, it was. Did you see what the extremes did? You just turn them on. In fact, I'll show you guys really quick. Now, I've got four lights on there. So we'll turn off the external lights. So this is without any lights. And every empty exposure, I think, it sets the auto. So that is the Pim Stadium Extreme. And then this is my added lighting with warmth added on two additional lights outside of that. And Jenna McMuffin, this is the craft beer of all craft beers. This is a Bud Light Platinum. Yeah, we just finished drinking much better beers. This is doing nothing for me right now, except I'm off balance. All right, cool, cool, cool, cool. And yeah, yeah, it looks great. I'm going to give it a little forward, a mild danger. That's all it is. Are they not on the garage door? Oh, I don't have enough power over there. I need to run another cable. Oh. Yep You not wrong sir That is a really bad place to go for mode shots by the way Unless, of course, you're on the Premium or LE. No, the lock mission start, because on the Pro it kicks it out. On the Premium and LE, it throws it into the ramp return, so it's nice and safe. One of the few times, I think, where that is actually the case. The question I have is, what color temp are the extra panels you're running? So, one of them is at 41. I'm not sure the significance of that number. And the other is at 35. So, these two channels have, like, a warm and a white. And that's just the power level. The warm is probably at 41%. The white is probably at 35. The bright white. All right, let's drive it again, shall we? There we go. There we go. We're doing a thing. Cool. Totally cool. Totally cool. Let's go. Still cool. Still cool. Still cool. Alright, so now I'm just going to get a two ball here because I really messed this up. Okay. Oh, wow, we got an add-a-ball somehow. It's always magic to me. I feel like when an anabole happens and I was really not expecting it. You have a much reward. That's not cool. Cool. I'm cool with that. That's how you do that, obviously. Straight in the ball? Yep. There we go. Oh, my God. We're cool. We're fine. We're fine here. We're all fine. There it is. Mission start. Opportunity to take a step. Alright. Alright. Already I feel like it doubled it. Well, MPT3K, welcome to the stream, Oh, we were only at ball two! I still have an opportunity to catch up. So, to pet in Kelvin's way, you're mixing light temps. Yes I am. Based on what I am petting Kelvin. That's funny. I have no idea. I'm guessing it's probably 2700 and like a 4500 or 4000. I can mess with the blue, but you gotta be kidding me. So, this is as warm as the pink is. It went up, and then it came down. Not that you did it, it's just that... Alright, we're good. Yeah, we're good. We're totally good. That is as warm as the pink is. Yeah, that's like a soft white. It's probably 2700k. But it says 32. That's the power level of the light. The LEDs themselves don't change in temperature. You have two different sets in there. Yes, yeah, yeah. Okay. This goes here, fall three. I've often joked with Joe Panaclips that he breaks all the film and video rules and somehow still comes out on top. There are definitely days where I'm like, I have no idea how this whole thing is working. New extremes, yes! Okay, wait, so Penn Stadium says, okay, that's what I thought. So what are your thoughts now that I have the new extremes plus with the warm white and cool white that you can mix and is about 2x more powerful? Pym Stadium. I'm in. I was just telling people it'd be interesting. What I want to do is get the new extremes and try them with the old extremes and do the old extremes like this laid down on a Pym where it doesn't cause too much reflection. And then use the new ones vertically or vice versa. Right? Because, guys, by the way, the pin stadium extremes have magnets on the side, which is great. It makes it super easy to move pins. It also makes it super easy to accidentally knock off when you try to flip. Like I just did. But they haven't broken them yet, which is great. But you can also then use the magnets and lay them down flat like this. But you get the interesting reflection on glass. Now, honestly, that's not bad, especially if I move them up all the way. It almost makes it look like the ramps are purposefully lit that way. And it also adds a lot more color to the play field, which is really interesting. And Archmecha, welcome to the stream. And Deadflip is using them, yes. They're good. So, well, damn it, guys. Pez, have a wonderful night. You guys, Pez Johnson, another streamer. If you have not checked out Pez Johnson, flip over to his stream really quick. Give him a follow. Awesome streamer. Also, same with Fliptronic, MPG3K. And Ty knows his stuff. You notice that the LEDs are tungsten and white LEDs mixed. Yes, MPG3K has respect for mad skills, which Ty has when it comes to actually building computers. Not him. I mean, I was going to say photography. That's just dabbling. That works. There's one. I tried it on the fly. Nope. Archmecha, thank you. Thank you very much. All right, you got the... Oh! Dammit. Got one. You got one. I think you've got a couple. I played really awful. And let's see here. Pin Stadium. So I have to sell my old extremes and get the new ones? And Pin Stadium says, that's for you. So you can make Pin Stadiums do one solid color rather than black and it's up nice. Yeah, now these guys are, the extremes, by the way, are meant for streamers. They go on the outside of a pin, not the inside. And yeah, their goal is to light up the pin to make it look really good for a camera. I'm just a little insane and use... I keep referencing Tim the Tool Man Taylor. Like, there's the way you're supposed to do it. And then let's take it to a 10 and see how it goes to the 10. Well, I have found that I really like my pictures oversaturated. I like my play field oversaturated. I love Boca and both Ty and MPT3K will tell you that I overuse Boca and I also really like a lot of lights in my stream I feel like lighting adds a ton and I want more lights you guys can't see them right now but I just got the the nanoleaps installed on the wall up there you can kind of see them in the reflection as they're changing I have to get so many more I love wide angles and fisheye glass no glue eye and you also mispronounce bokeh no I pronounce it perfectly maybe not actually I have no idea I think I looked it up online as to how to pronounce it because I wasn't sure how to pronounce it don't panic with an mpg3k how do you feel about mixed in white lights with diffused rgb um I'm trying to think of a situation where that might be helpful for streaming. Now, okay, check this out. Pym Stadium. If I could incorporate that into my Roboctopus app and let the stream and the chat control the color being projected onto the play field, that's a win for me instantaneously. That would be super fun. Where you could literally change up the color from red to green or something like that. Quick question. What am I doing? It's just a standout. That's all I'm supposed to do? I did a wait team. What is a wait team? Uh, that is an... Okay, you did prime directive. You're on Nero actively. I did a wait team. Does that stop the... Oh, yes. It stops the standard mode. Oh, okay. Just follow me. Oh, that's right. It stopped the standard mode, and now it's easier, and it's playing a different way. This is not easier. This is worse. Yeah. I want my old mode back. I want my new mode. I'm sorry, you can't have it. You can have five dangerous shots instead of three safe ones. I'll just pretend I'm trying to make the actual shots, and then hit. Apparently I need to tighten down that arm. Thatten down the hatches, as they say. It's Japanese. This is worse. Thank you, Scott. Our situation has not improved. I love the look of the interior pin stadiums, but they can be a little crazy when actually playing. Sometimes, man, absolutely. There were actually the, what I couldn't use, ultimately I had enough people complain, I had the pin stadiums in, I had to disconnect the flashers. That was the, and Jedi McMuffin, I think, did the same thing recently, where he has the pin stadiums set now to always on, on his Jurassic Park, and had to disable the flashers, because the camera just can't handle it well. But that is just for streamers. I love them on my deck full. And then I have the... Oh, jeez. Oh, jeez. And then I have the mirrored side blades, which I feel like just added to that. All right, that's... I actually like the standard Pirate of the Caribbean more than the Telly one and the Collective one because it has white GI whereas the other one has RGB. And playing the other ones it looks so dark you can't see anything. Right. If the LEs had white and RGB that would be fine. Right. There it is. There it is. If you want to mimic strobe multiball, you can drop the stroke. Oh. There's the attack from Mars right over here. Yeah, but the strobe is disabled. Oh, that's good. Yes. Lord Helmet! Coming in with a follow! Lord Helmet! I feel like your wife has been following for a while now. But thank you for following, and welcome to the stream. And the reason Don't Panic Flip gets away with moving the table so much with only one danger is because there is little resistance on the floor. Absolutely. We're on concrete right now. Also, it's the Trogdor effect. It's the one beepy arm. I've just been working out my left arm for a really long time. Should we tell them, Chad? What's that? What? Nothing. What? Nothing. You can't say that. Don't worry about it. The Pim Stadium Fusions let you adjust color and brightness for the flashers in the app. That's the... Oh, my God. That's awesome. You have one big arm. What is... I don't understand. That's why I called it Trogdor. That's me. You're probably wondering how I ended up in this situation. And welcome, Caviel, Flipstream, B. What just happened? Don't panic, Flip, Nightbot. Why is my Nightbot saying welcome, Caviel, Flipstream, and B? Flipstream just logged. Oh. Oh! I put that in there. You just logged in as Flipstream. That's the... Okay, cool. I remember saying that. Totally. LaserLost, welcome to the stream. By the way, if you have not checked out LaserLost, honestly, I doubt it. Like, I'm just going to say it right now. You probably have seen LaserLost. The guy streams for like 30 hours a day. he is hardcore killing, streaming and just destroying every game he plays made it through Iron Maiden I feel like everything on Iron Maiden awesome streamer for realsies if you guys haven't checked out Laser Los you definitely should I tried to imagine I had a thing going and I'm like I'm going to go for a wave team let's give it a go let's see what happens this is getting boring and that's immediately when I dream I'm letting my palms feel tonight what did we do around here? 10 stadiums 10 stadiums that's nice and we can see him in terms of the flashy. Their band is tonight. I love Dracula. And how have you been working? You flirted. And how have you been working? That one. Push-ups! That's why the push-ups are off. I hurt myself. Ty counted it up. Apparently you guys have purchased, was it 1,400? Yeah, 1,400. Over 1,400 push-ups for me on this stream. Think about it. 1,400 push-ups on the screen. That's a lot of push-ups, guys. 37 hours a day, eight days a week. Exactly, Sean Stace. That is the Laser Los work ethic right there. That needs to be a thing. Laser Los. When is the Laser Los merch coming? And when does the streaming 37.8 happen? because that is now the... I will settle for nothing less. Also, sure. Hi. You guys, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Pictures came out today. Is anybody else as excited for TMNT as I am? And has anybody else queued up that order to get themselves a new inbox as soon as humanly possible? because I think it looks, I think it's going to be a ridiculously, oh, I saw that. I think it looks ridiculously flowy. It looks to me like X-Men and Star Trek had a baby. It's got the layout of Star Trek, but it's more efficient with the use of space, so it also allows some playfield level stuff to happen. There's more shots with the upper flipper. why did we get rid of extra buttons on the side I like extra buttons on the side I like them too yeah uh Miss Lord Helmet says so spoiled with my pin stadiums I hate playing without them yeah it's funny because whenever I even if I'm playing by myself without streaming I will move my pin stadium extremes over to the machine just so that way I never have to deal with it being so dark I can't see anything especially if it's a who's the guy who did software for Game of Thrones Ghostbusters it's every game that tries to give you an epileptic seizure you need to counter that with light and the guy who did the software for all of those is I keep wanting to say Denzel Washington but that's not right it's um it is somebody help me nobody's going to help me right now that's fine it's fine Dwight thank you Dwight Sullivan Totally Tenzo Washington, Dwight Sullivan sound very similar. And, welcome to the stream. I hope you are ready for this amazing event. What is going on with that? Oh, I know you hit the middle one. On the bottom trap. All right, lock and a mission start. Really? Really, game? That seems completely unnecessary. All right, here we go. This is my shot. I have one job on this ship. It's stupid, but I'm going to do it. I'm ready for them to say that those aren't the real picks for TMNT, that's for sure. Ah, I'm excited. I think it sucks that, honestly, Zombie Yeti's art may have been wasted due to requirements, like licensing requirements, but it's old school TMNT. It really is. It is the cartoon from my childhood, at least. Early 90s? Yes. 80s for the movie. The one with Corey Feldman. You've got to correct your course. I looked up at the DMD for a second. You lose concentration. You lose focus for one second. Yes, don't panic. So that's exactly right. Once you balance the dark spots of the Penn Stadium, it levels the contrast so that the flashers blend nicely. It's not Dwight's fault the playfields are dark. Hey! If that is the case, it's either the designs on a lot of Dwight's playfields are very dark, or the way that he does light shows creates a lot of bright light and contrasting situations. because if you think about it, now, Star Wars, I feel like being one of the few that isn't as bad, and I've got to say, the lightsaber battle with the bright reds and blues is absolutely amazing on Star Wars. That's an experience, and in a dark room, it's even better. It's hard as hell to play in a dark room. But otherwise, Ghostbusters has been crazy flashers. Game of Thrones is borderline seizure-inducing. I'm so happy that they added a setting to the newest firmware for Ghostbusters where they can turn that down. Let's see here. Play it again. And was that a... No, it was a fan ball lock. Probably because I don't know TMNT at all, but it looks like it has some decent stuff in it. Radar is spinning this multiple toys. Yeah, I think it's got the toys, and it looks old school. I was there for the cartoon, love it then, but still very hesitant for the game to be good and have staying power. Mrs. Lord Helmet, totally get that. A lot of people aren't into buying a game before playing it, and that makes a lot of sense. A lot of sense. I just struggle. It's a struggle. Because I am not good with the whole patience thing, and I don't mean a doctor. Let's see, I hope... There is some vanilla ice on that TMNT. I really, really hope so, too. I hope they got the licensing for the G-U-R-T-L-E power. I hope they have all of that music. We have a better chance of American pinball making a good game before Rowling signs off on a Harry Potter pin. You're not wrong, guys. I love the lightsaber battle. Agree, says Pinstadium. If it's anything like Deadpool, it's a winner. I I think think about what bad games they've created recently I just didn't flip I just didn't flip I was trying to figure out what I had to do next and I looked up and then it was done alright fall off So I was going, I'm directed, hero, play drug, sort of girl, and I'm assuming it's like, I don't know why, but that's the fact that I'm a hero. Is it because Captain Secure is a, Captain Secure is time mode? I don't think it's a mode, I think it's just like a bonus. Yeah, it's not permanent. Oh, that's probably why then. We'll probably turn that back on the company. Am I good? I know it's that shit. I'm just going to be patient here. Maybe I shouldn't. Feels like it's really holding that ball for a while. Okay. In some cases code updates take, what, five years when the gun butts just come out. out. That is an excellent question. I'm not sure. Do we have an add-a-ball in the black hole? We can't. We've got four balls. All right, here we go. This is going to suck. Nope. Can't code a good playfield. Because you don't want to do so much to a playfield. We're talking about what's more important, his code or playfield. Oh. I don't know, I think a really good code can make any playfield... You see that? I'm gonna hit that. Yes! Oh my god, that was so cool! Oh my god. But also look at really simple looking games, like TNA. I think TNA is great because the play field is pretty simple. Oh my god. I still to this day love TNA. And I feel like that's really saying something, because I don't keep any games for a moment. I'm so sorry. I knew the heck out of that pit and I don't know if I'd get rid of it if I ever if I beat the ninth reactor like it still is just super fun to play it's becoming more rare and rare there's only 500 550 I think but yeah no Faye I have not brought TNA up I I haven't talked to wife into helping me and I haven't felt really really positive about like asking friends I haven't seen for a while to help me move a 300-pound tin up the stairs. Okay, so, if you want to ask me, I'm here right now. Yes. Do you want to bring it up? It's not ready. It's so not ready. We could make it ready. We could make it ready. When is the stream ending? The stream ends in 30 minutes, by the way. Let's see here. Code can fix its tongue. Look at Batman 66. It can. And this is the difference. ZMAC, you're an amazing competition player. But we were just talking about this beforehand. And I feel like somebody who is as competitive and good as you can enjoy that game a lot because there is a lot of flexibility in how you get points and score. But for me, and I enjoy playing in tournaments just because it's like a way to validate that my skills are maybe getting better over time, but I'm not ever going to be a really good competitive player. So for me, when I play a game, it's almost never about the points. Like, if I put up a good set of points on Metallica, or I threw up, like, I don't know, 180 or something on this the other day, I feel really good about that, but what really gets me is I got really close to the second wizard mode. Or on Deadpool, it was that I completed the final battle. Like, I, that's the kind of stuff that gets me into a game and keeps me coming back, is working towards that goal, and the points just don't do it for me. But, that said, Batman 66 is ridiculously deep. It's just, I felt like a little light on the, like, it was easy to get to all of the individual wizard modes, and maybe, I don't know if they ever added, like, an ultimate wizard mode. Like, if you complete the main wizard mode, and then you go through and beat all of the minor villain wizard modes, did you get to some ultimate? Because I don't remember there being something after that. And, let's see. Faye says, I love The Walking Dead. Getting one next month. Faye, man, if I wasn't jumping on Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, I would have jumped on The Walking Dead. It's such a fun thing. So brutal. Although I think I might have a little bit too much on the... Too many brutal pins at this point. Awful shooter, great code. Oktoberfest. This is great code. I think it's very robust. Okay. Awful artwork. Awful animations. Can we also play that? Great code. What great code? Twice. Three times I have hit that. There it is. Nope. All right, mission start. Nope. I'm not death-saving. After all that crap I said earlier, I can't possibly death-save. Try it. Mrs. Bay is cool with it. Wait, we'll do the D&D extender tutorial when I get The Walking Dead to simplify it naked. fans only, that's definitely sub only mode, right? And Mrs. Faye is cool with it, okay. So instead of spending the last four days in Denver at the showdown, oh, because it was supposed to happen at the end of May, drinking beers with some guy named George. I drove an hour three times over and picked up pin number seven, just got home and too pooped to set it up. Joe, welcome to the stream. What did you get? I need to put up another thousand games now that I have access to Iron Maiden. ZMAC, really, I need to buy one later this year. Three Bill, I don't know what RTTH stands for. And our picks, Joe, yes, are they in Discord yet? Run to the Hills? Oh Three Bill Run to the Hills is crazy Okay cool yep Run to the hills Cocktologist Welcome to the stream Sorry. Not sorry. Jim? No tilt. Okay, there he is. The back may have moved a little bit. a little bit. I'm just going to move it over here a little bit like that. Mine. Mine. That makes more sense. 100% working EBD with a trash play field. $600. Oh, cool. Ape All Deluxe? Oh. Cool. Who else just got an Ape All Deluxe recently? I don't know. That's like the only other game that was... Okay, because it's either that or laser field for me. I really like 8-ball. I do really like 8-ball as well. Okay, I picked up Valley 8-ball. That, okay, was paid. I'm like, somebody just got an 8-ball. There's another right Corbett. Catch it. Nice. I'm happy with that. It wasn't really a live catch, but it wasn't a dead catch. Here we go. A dead catch like you die when you try to catch it. All right, I'm good. I don't need to hit anymore. Oh, is it one more? All right-of-way team. I hate these shots. All right, we're fine. We're all fine here. There we go. I'll take that. It was dirty, but I'll take it. Wow, that is great. $600 for everything. Oh, yeah. Everything's under control. Situation normal. Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here now. Thank you. How are you? You're out of music, apparently. I'm going to have to put on, I don't know, is it 80s or 90s, guys? Oh, actually, it's 1137. It has only been seven minutes since the last time I looked. Okay, we're cool. Since the last time I looked at the camera. Oh, my God. Oh, come on. Good enough. Come on, Firestorm. You work. Welcome to the stream. The only thing I don't like about this camera is that it picks up blues very poorly. It does. Yeah, you're not wrong there. That's a lot of blue. Is that the mode you're in? I feel like I haven't seen that before. It's just the purple lighting. Okay. All right, music. Let's see here. 80s says Flipstream. Flipstream wins. 80s it is. 90s Alternative. Oh, that's right. That's that. So now we've got to do Pinball. Because Pinball was all 80s all the time. Play. Play. There we go. We have music again. I did not just play that in the living room, did I? Because that would suck. Okay, no we didn't. He's playing again. You're too warm on the white balance, is my guess. That'll wash out the blues. There you go. There you go. All right, we're no longer warm, so this is very cold. And the stream added blue to the background. There you go. We just add more blue. I'm thankful so many friends in the pinball community know so much about cameras and lenses. I am as well. Hey, I knew nothing about cameras. I still know nothing about cameras. But I know a lot of people who know a lot about cameras. tying an MPT-3K. Okay, Joe Shorts, I'm assuming you're talking about TMNT, or are you talking about your pickup with the 8-Ball Deluxe? I'll send you a white balance card and a vector scope, so you can be happy. Okay, I don't know any of those words. Last time I touched a real camera was way back in middle school. The rust is real. Okay, good. You're joking. Thank you. I'm like, I don't know what those things are. Oh, no. That's fine. It's good. Any of the more experienced machine flippers know what a good price is for a whodunit. I'm not super worried about the conditions since I'm going to be modding the whole thing into something else. You to buy a turbo-encapulator. I said that word perfectly. I don't even know what that is. That's another word that I am lacking. You need to buy a turbo-encapulator. And dice. I'll let somebody else jump in. That said, when I was looking at whodunit, Wow, that was a weirder than a lad. I feel like, yeah, about $3,000 was a decent price that I was seeing for him. Quick question, what's the goal of this map? Is it just hit the vengeance? Yes, if you hit the vengeance enough, I think you get a super. Super score? Maybe. Looks like it does. It did things. It's blowing up the image up top. Looks like it has about a third of its life left. Is it legal? Totally legal. No. If there was a tournament director here, they would be very upset. Are you a tournament director? No, not at all. Great. Yeah. I messed it up. Whenever I see Don't Panic Flip, I automatically think Dead Flip. D-Max. We're very different people. He's very good looking. I'm ugly he's really smart and knows what he's doing as good as pinball I'm lackluster at best yeah there's some pretty big differences but thank you make sure you get the unobtainium with that turbo encabulator stir fry crazy awesome name by the way also you guys tomorrow at 4.33 eastern time pm SpaceX launching two people into space gotta check that out and cheer on cheer on SpaceX we got a ball lock Nova Trinian Operations. That's a lock and a mission start and the final shot of the mode. We got three in a row people. That's going to be ramps. Super ramps. And multiballs. Thank you. I tried for that away team again. I tried for that away team again. Have you battled a team here? Have you dueled? I'm sorry? Have you dueled a team here? I have. Twice now we've dueled on team A. It is not a great machine to do it with. Yes. Yeah! What ball was that? We got a replay! That was great. Alright, fine, that's all you. Yeah, I'm going to try this narrow thing. So, 3D, trap, all the way, and then left, forward. Can I get you to backhand it over and over? Uh, I don't see George doing a lot of Novertrunian operations. That's not a word I know either. I don't think it's real I don't think so either I feel yeah plus all those connections by non-reversible tremie pipes and differential girdle springs on the up end of the gramdrameters you have to set up don't panic I was officially ousted by my wife and the lord helmets tonight No more 80s jams. It's 90s punk or nothing. Wow. That's a bold statement, Mrs. Jedi McMuffin. 90s punk? It's like Green Day? Is that punk or is that pop at that point? I feel like it was more punk at the time. I linked the video in Discord, George. It's a funny classic jargon word spoof video for engineers, okay? But I have pinball streams tomorrow. Awesome. Z-Mac, are you starting to stream? Have you been streaming? Have I just missed out on it? We should handicap Duel. You have to play one-handed. I bet you still win. What does everyone think about the IFTA Challenge Series? I need to check it out. There's been a lot of conversation on the Discord about ratings and how that compares to actual ability, but I haven't investigated it. How does it work? What is it? It's basically a way to do competitive pinball without actually having to go anywhere. Is it on different machines? I think so. I don't know if it's the same or if it's different machines. That was a lot all at once there. Yes it is. It is so expensive too. Zach says no need to figure it out still. And that's not so hard to find a reasonable price. Oh, gotcha. So Zach's not streaming it yet. yet. Pointed in my play. Let's hear it. Laser Lokes followed T-Mac just in case. I feel like I need to do the same. I'm doing it right now. Boom! Followed, just in case. Flipstream, their first album, and I went to her institutional learning facilities, and I'm crazy. I missed something. Hold on. What does everyone think about the IFA? Me first, and the Grim Grimes. Gimme, gimme, gimme, sorry. 90's punk like suicidal tendencies yeah wow Jedi I think if we're going to duel on TNA we just need we just need three people I think that's the way to keep it going on TNA is to have a third person I know that Aeon Black has it now so maybe we can talk Ian Black into doing that. Nerd mode! What's the nerd mode? Nero? Oh. We did go to League. I am never going to remember that. Ever. Like, there are certain things that I will never remember. Like, there... There is a word that for the life of me for years. When I need it, I can never pull it up. And it has to do... That popped the thingy. Yeah, we're fine with that. Wait, man, you are so screwed on push-ups. Eventually, I know I have nothing to use points on right now. Zero, because that O in the mode looks like a D. It does. Kind of look like a D. Nerd mode! The only logical step is to meet up and have real duels. Yes! How are we doing lined up? We are a little... A little left. I gotta... Apparently I have one tilt left. That's fine. We don't need him. Who needs dangers? Cool. Who needs any dangers? Let's try this again, shall we? I'm starting early because my internet dives at 12.15 every night, almost like religiously now. Wow. Every night? How long has this been happening? It has been happening now for about three weeks. Exactly at 12.15? Exactly at 12.15 every night. Oh, you have a combination of drives? Yes, I do. Got that lock, got a mode shot. So I'm just avoiding it now. We're going to start a half hour earlier, which kind of sucks because I've been doing 1030 to 1230 for two years. Over two years now. Here we go, mode start. And a lock. Yes! I challenge Don't Panic Let Twist. Tuna-fit sandwich eating duel. Dice. I don't even trust myself to talk right now. That sounds disgusting. Duh. Is it the mayo or the tuna? It's the tuna. Which is funny. I love sushi. Sushi's not fishy, though. Yes, I agree. Tuna's not really fishy, though. I don't know what that is. What? All right. I don't even know the meaning of the word. Like, I have no idea what just happened there. And now we're in multiball. All right, all of you. George, I can't wait to wait. Anyway, sandwich eating duel. Um, I'm... I get the chance to win. I would totally be down for that. Heheheheheheh! You're gonna Twinkie Sandwich-eating me off. A Twinkie Sandwich? What is a Twinkie Sandwich? Twinkie Eater Sandwich? Is that like a turkey in a hot dog bun? Is a hot dog a taco or a taco? You're blowing my mind right now. What the hell is... Is a hot dog a taco? You can't ask like crazy questions like that while I'm playing pinball. I'm losing, I can't. What is UHF movie? That's the one with Weird Al. Are those initials or is that the name of the movie? That is the name of the movie, which are initials, I guess. You take a cranky and put a wiener in it with canned cheese on top. What happened to the filling? Can you try it in that game? Oh, okay. Oh, okay. Okay. I'm trying to hit the black hole to get an attaball. I can't seem to, I've never tried to hit that shot directly. Here we go. Got it. And a lock. Apparently we have already used it. What was that? No. No. I don't think so. You do not get that shot. All right, there we go. Mission start. 21 million on Klingon. The multiple. Excellent job. All right, here we go. Lots of red shots. Lit. There's one. That was the one shot that wasn't lit red. All right, all right. We're cool. We're cool. Eye of the Tiger, nice. Wife and I use this as our walkout song at the wedding. Flipstream, that is awesome. All right, here we go. Interesting question. What was everybody's, like, remember your, what song did you dance to at your wedding? Maybe that's a cool way to put it. Because mine I'm still really happy with because I got to pick it, and it was Red Jumpsuit Apparatus. Like, none of that sappy stuff. It was I'm Your Guardian Angel by Red Jumpsuit. But it was almost... What's the name of that band? Da Cat for Cuties' I'll Follow You Into the Dark. But I love that song, My Wife and I. That actually kind of was our song. Wow, that was just mean. after such an okay ball. I guess we'll catch you up soon. I don't want to. Cool, cool, cool. Over there, not here. Okay, I'm catching up. All right, so what do we got here? Rainbow or Chocolate Sprinkles, not song. Sinatra is Blimey to the Moon. That's awesome. My wife is a huge Sinatra fan. Oh, you guys know Jess. I can just say Jess again. Let's see here. That song title sounds very creeperish. Which one? Oh, I'll follow you into the dark? No, it's about, if you're unfamiliar with Death Cab for Cutie, it's about that basically when you die, I'll follow you into death. I think it's really what he's getting across. It is very dark. It's not creepy, though. It's a little creepy. It's not that, I mean, creepy in that it's dealing with death. I would say it's macabre, not creepy. How about that? Okay. Wolfman, let's see here. Everybody is pretending to know Red Jumpsuit or whatever you said. I have no idea. Guardian Angel by Red Jumpsuit Apparatus. It's a song. It was a thing for like a year on the radio. When I listened to the radio before the Internet became more popular than everything else. Nice shot. We got that shot in Mayo County tonight. Nice. Wait. I only know their biggest hits, and it's about an abusive relationship. Which would be awful if that's what the song was actually about. Team Spitting for DZF. Thank you. Thank you. Chocolate. Z-Mac, I agree. I do not like... I like milk chocolate, but the chocolate has to be countered by something else. Like, I love peanut butter M&M's. but I can't stand just pure chocolate. I don't like fudge. I don't like chocolate. I like James Rees's Pieces. I like James Rees's Pieces Butter Cups, which have a little bit of milk chocolate in it, but otherwise I am not a fan. Vanilla all the way. Vanilla for the win. I bet George calls Prinkles Jimmy's. Okay? Any other option that's not chocolate is greater than C-Mex. Completely agree. Thank you. Abusive relationship. Are you okay? Are you in danger, George? Blink three times slowly for yes. I am not. No. No. In fact, my wife started wearing her glasses again, and I let her know that that made her look very cute today. I also gave her her Mother's Day gift about two weeks late because, you know, everything's taking a while to ship. And it was awesome. I nailed it. It's a lock. It's a necklace. It's a heart. It's got a picture of our daughter in it who's making a very funny face. And on the outside it says, I love you to the moon and back, which I have a tattoo of over here, which was my daughter's favorite book when she was an infant. and it's about a bunny rabbit and a bunny rabbit kid who go back and forth where the son says, you know, I love you to the moon, and the dad says, I love you to the moon and back. And it's a really cool book, and my daughter loved it. So I have that tattoo, which is just one of many book-related tattoos. And so I got that on the locket, and then on the inside, it says, you're the most bangerang mother ever. Get it out of there, man. Get it out! Don't have that. If you're going to do it, go full ass. You should have just bought her the Big Lebowski page. We all love the Big Lebowski. Chocolate should either be consumed in dark form if eating a bar or chip form if in my cookie. Otherwise, I will pass. I'm okay with some good chocolate chips. Don't panic. Man, you're really trying to get divorced, huh? No. And I have a feeling Don't Panic Flip is an Annie situation from Misery. Oh my god. This is a cry for help. No. He didn't hurt his arm from push-ups. It was more. Just sling the table into Ghostbusters over there. It's fine. It's fine. Brownies are delicious. Okay, brownies I'll go for. I feel like it's tinged with chocolate, not actual chocolate. How did he get to ball three? I feel like I only played one ball. It's been 20 minutes. It's been 20 minutes. 18 minutes? I really struggled to find it from this side, but I got it that time. And there's our four ball. I don't think I've hit any shots yet. Cool. That's how you... Look at that. Can you hit the button? How many times? All of them. Let's just... Yeah. Uh-oh, somebody did something. What was that? That was Flipstream coming in with the host. Perfect timing. Flipstream, thank you very much for that host. And it is after midnight, you guys. Wait, this isn't over here anymore. I don't even know what to do. Like, it's not in front of me. I had to reach for it. So, you guys, tonight was amazing. We're starting a little bit earlier. Until I can figure out my internet issues, we're going to start a half hour earlier so we can end at midnight. I'm hoping to actually get it resolved soon. at least don't panic flip gets angry away from the machines, right? Like I don't pick them up and just throw them around. Let's see. Tonight I want to thank Ty for hanging out and being amazing and kicking butt on Star Trek and allowing me to explain some of the rules, even though I know obviously you guys were here for it. None of the rules. Also, I and also a few other people on the stream, at least one other person on the stream is a part of the pinball network uh if you guys have not checked out the pinball network you definitely could do so there's also a ton of other streamers just honestly at this point check out the pinball heading on twitch i feel like we've already done a bunch of shout outs and stuff and i could go through and list 16 different people right now but it's just the community is amazing it's so tight-knit we've got a great discord you're Welcome to do Exclamation Point Discord if you want to join it. Lots of information going in there about new games. As the pictures came up on Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles today, we posted those online very, very quickly. Lots of conversation about streaming in general and pinball and stuff that's not even related to pinball. So that's a really good place to go. And otherwise, I think that's it. I will see you all on Thursday. Thursday night, we have a dual stream. And I'm not playing in this one. I just get to commentate, which I'm kind of excited and kind of produce. So we have at least two people dueling, and right now just me as commentator looking for potentially one more person to play Zip.
