TL;DR

Co-op TNA gameplay stream with rules explanation and designer/production discussion.

Summary

Don't Panic Flip streams a co-op multiplayer session of Total Nuclear Annihilation with guests Christine and Avi. The hosts provide a detailed rules walkthrough, discussing the game's elegant four-step reactor destruction mechanic (hack via grid targets, start via scoop, overheat in upper playfield, destroy via lit shots), its design philosophy of progressive difficulty, and its reputation as both accessible and brutally challenging. They also discuss the game's design heritage (Scott Danesi homebrew → Spooky Pinball production of 550 units), music evolution, and flipper feel/adjustment mechanics.

Key Claims

  • Scott Danesi designed Total Nuclear Annihilation as a homebrew game, which Spooky Pinball subsequently produced with 550 units sold

    high confidence · George (host) states: 'Matt Scott Danesi is the guy, this was his homebrew game... he built at his house, and it ended up getting purchased by Spooky Pinball, and they sold 550, 550 of them'

  • Scott Danesi wrote all the music and designed the software for Total Nuclear Annihilation

    high confidence · George: 'He did the design, he did the software, he wrote all the music that we're listening to right now'

  • The main character in TNA is named Scarlet and is voiced by Scott Danesi's wife

    high confidence · George: 'Her name is Scarlet... anytime the, that she comes up, uh, her voice is done by, uh, Matt Scott Danesi's wife, I think'

  • TNA playfield is notably flat and occupies roughly half the normal playfield space, making it play very fast and aggressive

    high confidence · George: 'So we notice the playfield is really flat. There's nothing here, right? Like this is it. It's very simple. It's half the field so it's gonna react really fast'

  • The game's difficulty progresses through nine reactors, with even professional players rarely reaching reactor nine

    high confidence · Christine: 'seven. just because that is as far as I've ever made it... You haven't ever done all nine? No.' George concurs: 'even the world's best players struggle to get to nine'

  • TNA features a co-op mode where multiple players work together with shared ball counts toward collective goals

    high confidence · George explains co-op mechanics: 'So all nine of our balls together, three of mine, three of yours, three of hers, are used collectively to try and get to the ninth reactor'

  • The game has a ball lock mechanism that allows players to collect multiple balls for multiball, which is the primary strategy for safely hitting the dangerous grid targets

    high confidence · George: 'So the best way to get those shots is to do the ball lock over there... So you get in there and then you'll get multiple balls that way? You'll lock them all, then they'll all release'

Notable Quotes

🎵 Thank you. You know what the difference is between you and me?
3:37
I make this look good. Hello, good evening. You see the hat? I am Mrs. Nesbitt. Welcome, my name is George. This show is Don't Panic Flip, and tonight we have a really fun stream planned. We're going to be playing some Total Nuclear Annihilation. If you guys got the first notification and not the second one, apparently I completely spaced updating my stream name and the notification that went out. Dice, Pinsomniac, MPT3K, and Mini Pinballer, welcome.
4:31
The night will last forever. And, okay, so right away I have to do two pull-ups. And with me tonight I have Christine and Avi. Hello. Hey, guys.
4:45
So without further ado, I'm going to switch over here. You guys can see this. Also, totally stealing from MPT3K on the hand camera. At the same time, I went black and white stealing that from Faye. And that's pretty much it. That's the update so far. I just want to be able to see. No. Sorry. We're just... Sorry. He already saw it. That looks... It does. The black and white really does look good. And like I said, that's a total bit of thievery from Faye after seeing what you did, MPT3K, in your stream. So it's just complete, complete thieving. So this year is Total Nuclear Annihilation. You have played it some. Aubie, you have not played this at all. Not at all. I'm going to walk through. Hopefully it's going to be a really quick game initially. I'm going to walk through kind of basically how to play this. It's actually really simple, which is what makes this game so amazing is that it's really easy to teach. I'm focusing, I'm focusing. So there's a few shots over here. You've got the left orbit, you've got the scoop, you've got this area up in here that the ball can get into. You've got these targets here that are going to be referred to as the grid. That scoop is where you're, you know what, I'm describing all the shots. What I should do is describe maybe the goal of the game. I'm going to take a step back. So the main character, I don't know her name, But she has to go back in time and get nine different nuclear reactors to all explode in order to save the future. So go back to the past to save the future. I don't know enough about why that is or any more of the story, but that's it. So these are your nine reactors right here in the middle that you keep track of. And it's really simple because the first thing you have to do is hack the reactor. And you do that by hitting all of these targets to turn them all pink from blue. You have to twist your arm. That's hitting the grid. Is that what we're doing now? Then, that's step one. Step two is start the reactor, which you do by hitting the scoop. That's it. We all awkwardly stop at it. Okay, and it's really cool. There is... You said that. That's so weird. We're not being silent. They can hear us. Now it's no fun.

  • Spooky Pinball games (specifically TNA) have notably different flipper feel compared to other pinball manufacturers' machines

    medium confidence · Avi: 'this Spooky Pinball game is very unique in my opinion. The flippers feel very different than every other game. They're, like, really solid'

    • @ 35:53

  • “I have this pinball now at home. Just going to take a second... I found that, like, for example, I have to hit very lightly because it's super reactive, but yet then I'm too soft, right, hitting the flippers here because it's not as reactive.”

    That's step two. Step three, you have to open... Her name is Scarlet, I said. Who? Scarlet. Thank you. Yes. And she's on the stream. I put her right there on the far right side. She's so fancy with her goggles. She does. She's awesome. She looks like a badass. Uh, voiced, actually, so the, anytime the, that she comes up, uh, her voice is done by, uh, Scott Denise's wife, I think. So Scott Denise is the guy, this was his homebrew game. This is what he built at his house, and it ended up getting purchased by Spooky, and they sold 550, 550 of them, which is great for, uh, for such a small homebrew game. He did the design, he did the software, he wrote all the music that we're listening to right now. Which will change as we unlock the reactor. Yes, it gets really, really cool. Nuclear.
    7:47
    There's no U after that. But I'm actually quoting Get Smart. I'm not sure if you've seen that, where he gets really, like, it's nuclear! He yells that out as if that's, I was trying to go with that. I hear you. Okay, cool. Play the game. Yeah, yeah. So then you start the reactor. Then you have to overheat it. To overheat it, you need to get the ball in this area. and the more it bounces around, that number right there is going to go from 0 to 100. As soon as it hits 100, that light's going to go off. It means that the reactor is ready to be destroyed. So that's it. It's four parts. It's grid to hack, start reactor in the scoop, overheat up top, and finally destroy the reactor. You can see there's a destroy lit right here, there, there, and there. For the first reactor, it's going to randomly assign one of those. You just have to set one shot. For the second reactor, it's going to do two. For the third reactor, it's going to light three. It can also light the rad targets over here. That is the majority of the game There are a bunch of little things Except that this game will kind of interject for some reason Absolutely, yeah So we notice the playfield is really flat. There's nothing in here, right? Like this is it. It's very small. It's half the field so it's gonna react really fast So the best way to get those shots is to do the ball lock over there Yes So you want to be in multiple all the time you have a better chance of hitting your targets hitting the grid because you might notice also Wait, what ball lock? That's that channel So you get in there and then you'll get multiple balls that way? You'll lock them all, then they'll all release. And the other part is, obviously hitting this grid, it's lined up to drain. So the thing is, hitting it with just one ball, you have a chance of just draining really fast. It's like Black Knight, where it's just really, really fast. Yeah, exactly like Black Knight. Because you notice the field in half. It's super bad. Yeah. But you have to hit it. So that's the thing is, usually you'll see George probably go immediately for all the ball locks, get a multi-ball, then go after the grid, then get the ball up in the top, or shoot to light the reactor, get up in the top, overheat, hit your destroyer. And what's the team's purpose? So our goal is to destroy nine reactors, and I can add additional people to this, and we go into a co-op where we all are working together. So all nine of our balls together, three of mine, three of yours, three of hers, are used collectively to try and get to the ninth reactor. So I had Ryan watch this, and he giggled so hard.
    9:59
    And there was some great commentary on it. It was really good. Oh yeah, it looks so easy, right? Yeah. Oh, just do it like that. Got a ball save? Ball off. That's a super secret skill shot right there. You let it bounce. Cool. That was supposed to start. It didn't trigger. Notice both balls are sitting there. That was supposed to go into a multi-ball, but that is an issue with the game, which is very irritating. That's not frustrating at all. Not at all. No, no, no. So once again, my goal right now is to hack the reactor, step one, which is to hit the grid. But I don't want to hit that directly because that's dangerous. So I'm going to go into the multiball. Here we go. Now he'll feel a lot safer doing it.
    10:51
    Trying to hit it. There we go. I got one shot. I need two more. Still two more. This is going swimmingly here. Okay, you got it. There we go. Alright, so there's one. One more time, because almost all of them are pink. There it is. I'll take that. Oh, that was an amazing Lazarus. Alright, now, what I did there was Obviously on purpose. I did not panic flip and accidentally hit it into the next stage. But we ended up going through the reactor step because I completed that, which lit the scoop to start the reactor. And I did it so quickly that we essentially skipped it. And now we're on to the third stage, which is overheating up top. So let's put out something before you shoot. So now you notice there's pink lights in these orbits on the right and left. So in the beginning, they're both lit. You can get the shot of either side to get in the top, to get in the top field. But as you go along the game, only one of them will be lit. and then it will start to move as it goes. So you aim for one. It just gets harder and harder. So we're seeing as simple rules that get harder and harder. Yes, we do. All right. Ready, guys? Let's do it. Yes!
    12:11
    Who made this? Numbing Flower, that is Scott Tenisi, made the table, wrote the software, did the music. And Fliptronic, Jordan and Becca, you're amazing. You had a wonderful stream this evening. Thank you so much for the raise. and hashtag go Team TPN.
    12:32
    I'm trying that out. So now I've got the ball up top. What I'm hoping for here is... See that number? See, he overheated it. He got it.
    12:44
    So now it's overheated. You can see the light up top. So he's got a flashing destroy, and he just hit it. It was the pop bumper on the right. Yep. Had an arrow, so it just hit it on its way down. So one is done now. Now one is done, and we're ready to go on to two. And the music has changed. The music has changed, and now it's the same thing over again. So now we've got to hit the grid, start the reactor, overheat it, and go. Oh, you've also got another pull-up or do you not? Because that one guy Connor. That one guy Connor something. Oh, that's actually number three on pull-up. So I'm going to go take care of those really quick. I'm going to start up a new game.
    13:18
    So hold on. We're all trying to work together tonight, so we're not repeating. So every time someone makes a goal. Hashtag TPN.
    13:26
    Wow. There's a queue. Yes, there is. I'm going to do them all at the same time. Sorry. Mini Pinballer came in and did three. I'm sorry. I need to do four. Now five. Thank you, Fliptronic. Yes. Okay, so while this is rebooting... That's for all the pull-ups. I need to find my fear really quick. And then you can go first. You can go second. I will go third. We are all going to work together. This is going to be crazy.
    13:53
    It's going to be great. Can you start it so we're all on? I always forget, how do you make it co-op on here? So to go co-op, I hit it once to start the first player. Now, I'm going to hit the second player, but I'm going to hold it until it says co-op mode. And then add the third player. And then I added a third player. That's it. All right. Three pull-ups.
    14:14
    I need five. I need five pull-ups. Yeah, five, right? Yeah. Oh, my gosh. I haven't played this in so long. I apologize in advance. Oh, I didn't make it all the way. I was hoping.
    14:30
    Oh, that wasn't that. Here we go. Go. Five is done. God, this game is... Oh, nope. That is so bad. Gosh. It's okay. We are a team. We can work together. So you have the beer holder over there. Oh, I didn't see that. Next time. Oh, okay. I'm ready? I'm going? Okay. The neon yellow plastics on this look so sick. They are amazing. Yes they are. They're also what inspired, that's why I'm wearing the same plastics on this. Oh yeah. No! Block the plank. You got a ball safe there. And remember, you can avoid it. You don't want to hold up both flippers at the same time. Oh, sorry. No, it's okay. Oops.
    15:27
    Yep. Okay, so you're aiming for... Look at Hulkos pull up Z-Mac. Welcome to the stream. Button Brigade, also welcome to the stream. Lick our feet. It's been a while. I believe you were streaming earlier today. Welcome. Okay. The Munster sale might be a no-go, George. He has a buyer lined up tomorrow. Fliptronic, offer him an extra 50. For what? For Munsters. There's really inexpensive Munsters that Fliptronic is trying to get. So I noticed that, matching for the win. Thank you. It was important to me.
    16:02
    So Dice says, help me settle an argument. Is a taco a sandwich? Oh, my God. You just blew my mind. Is it a sandwich?
    16:15
    This is a kind of tough game to learn on. It is, but at the same time I feel like the co-op part allows...
    16:25
    So, it's a really easy game to learn pinball on. It is a brutal game, which is a little frustrating. But in terms of rules and capabilities and the music, how it's integrated with, I feel like this is a great game because you can play it in a group and work together. While at the same time, it's so pretty and awesome, I think it can pull somebody into the hobby. But I completely agree that it's brutal. This game, because the majority of the game is played here, which is kind of similar to Black Knight, it makes it very, very brutal. Yeah. But if you can figure out the ball loss, like finding that, it is so quickly gets in, and then you get three every time, right? Right. So you get, like, great multi-balls. And then you just, it has a pretty good ball save.
    17:07
    So if you have a my game at home, no ball save, no anything. This one has a really good ball save, even in the beginning when the ball takes the shot. So I feel like there's a lot of redeemable things about the hard part, right? Yeah, yeah. No, no, no. It doesn't completely time you out.
    17:21
    How Star Trek kept timing out Orion last week. Yeah, that all thing, yeah, that's not going to happen.
    17:28
    All right. So I lost the multi-ball, but I did complete the grid. A hot dog is a hot dog. No one can argue that the hot dog is not because the bread is not split. Invalid question.
    17:38
    If your skirt is not tucked into your pants, are your pants tucked into your shirt? Mind blown. A hot dog eating a hot dog is a hot dog. Oh my god, I forgot about the hot dog eating a hot dog.
    17:50
    We were going to do that emote at some point. Hey Norm, if you were a hot dog, would you eat yourself? What's wrong?
    18:02
    Alright, so we started the reactor. It looks like just that destroy is lit. So right next to... Yep. That was fine. That was totally fine.
    18:17
    We're fine. Please don't tell Cam. As long as you enjoy it, it doesn't matter. That's definitely not my... What?
    18:33
    King of Hot Dogs says, nah, I'm not a sandwich. It's always a food screen here. Always. All right. There we go. So I'm going to try and get back into multiball. And to do that, they're not lit right now. In fact, they're blue as opposed to green. So I've got to knock down all of the targets and then get the ball into the scoop behind all the targets. We have to make that shot twice at the same time. Pretty much is what happens. Yep. So he only has one target up. When you get further along with reactors, you only have to hit one. And now he can hit it in a scoop and reactivate it. He gets it up all the way into the block. But I'm not saying that. I heard it. I heard the hesitation. And then the concern that you were just going to leave that hanging there. So very quickly picking it back up. I didn't know I was going to say that without Monica speaking in the video. It's really conservative.
    19:30
    I was just waiting for it. There's a clip somewhere. I'm glad that that is finished. Yeah, thank you. I don't know the log, but as you go along with the trackers, more of the targets will be up. Then you'll hit it three times. Hit the shot just in time. And then redo it another three times. So it just takes more and more time every time.
    19:50
    Sorry if I'm over explaining, but I'm just like, oh it looks like this until the next one. Because here's the problem, because here's the thing with co-opping, Everything's been lost. The shots get harder and harder for us. They do what I tell them. They're like, oh, I can do what he just did. And I'm like, no. No, you can't. No, I don't have any of those notions at all.
    20:10
    But you did at least some of the spots I've been at. Okay. Give me that back. So is this the longest you've had a game, TNA? It is. That's going to suck. Is this one of the only ones he doesn't? Oh, no, that was a good split. Obviously intentional. Uh-oh.
    20:31
    Big tech! Gifting a tier one. If you're wasting your money, you must be a billionaire. If you're wasting your money, watch this.
    20:45
    Big tech. You're amazing. My hat's off to you. Thank you so much for gifting that sub. And Ken70, enjoy those emotes. They all have sounds associated with them on the stream. I just need to hit that shot, and it's really hard.
    21:03
    Yeah, he's saying this. No practice. We'll test for it. You're at the scoop now. Yeah, I just have to...
    21:14
    Got it. Hey, I got it. We're good. We're all fine. We're fine now. We're totally fine. Okay. Okay, so you'll see both feet for this. Nice. Oh, it's going to go down. So that's the pressure from the suit. So you can see there is a little sliver up there. But sometimes it will go in and immediately never bounce around in the screen. And then you can get it all the way back up again. Right, right, right. It's so frustrating. Where's your, oh, his disperse right by the suit. Yep. Well, I already got that one. I saw that you were having trouble. Nice.
    21:44
    And I got a ball save. So the ball's going to kick back out. I've got another one here. There are so many little cute cats on the screen right now. They're hyping you.
    21:57
    Oh, that's got to be Fliptronic then. Nice. Ooh, that is really nice of them. That is supposed to go in there. It is not supposed to go out like that. It's fine. It's totally fine.
    22:24
    Nice. Catch on that, by the way. It's all in the reflexes. I love that his turn is like 20 minutes and my turn is like... But remember, his turn is our turn, too. Yeah. Here, there you go. That's all that we needed.
    22:39
    I'm just a cheerleader here. Nope. I'm in the barbie. That's what it is. Uh, let's see here. What's a calzone? Oh my gosh. Tokis and grinders? Uh, it's a sandwich thing. So I actually picked up where he left off. Oh gosh. Yes. Oh, come on. Get up. Nope. Come on. Uh, you get a mystery, which is great. I need, oh, nope.
    23:04
    Rejected. God, I love this music. So now we're on the third reactor's music, mind you. Yeah. What's your favorite reactor's music? Uh, seven. just because that is as far as I've ever made it. Really? Yes! You haven't ever done all nine? No. Oh. It gets increasingly difficult. I mean, yeah, that makes sense.
    23:27
    Um... Oh, come on. You haven't made it to nine yet? I feel like such a disappointment right now. Fine. Fine.
    23:38
    Why do you think you've had to skate football a lot? Nice job. Nice job. Trying. I'm trying really hard. Yeah, yeah. Oh, that's not that. Oh.
    23:47
    Well, you have two ball locks, so if you hit it... And nom, nom, nom. Oh, those emotes are awesome. Bedtime for me. Lick Arcade. Have all the beautiful things. You don't even have to hit the orbit. And not to be confused with Calzone or Stromboli, even the world's best players struggle to get to nine. Thank you, Midheart. Thank you.
    24:08
    I feel better. Okay, before I start doing anything, what's my main goal right now? Pick it up in there. Just to get up in there? That's the goal? That's where I'm at. I told her that. Yeah, yeah, that's the goal. Just right, no pressure.
    24:21
    Which is, you want to pull back at roughly about 53 to 54%. That's totally... 63 to 54. But you know totally what this game feels like. A little hard. That was like 63. Yeah, that was... No! It's okay, you got a ball thing. You got a ball thing. You can punch it again. No, it plunges itself. No! What? I'm done. That was it.
    24:44
    That's an failure of a teeny-tiny. No, no. George, I have this multi-ball there for you. Thank you. Also, if you could show us how you skill shot into the top. Okay. So it's a full plunge, and you let it bounce off of the left flipper. No, not skill shot. Into the upper plate. Oh. Give me the 53%. So next time. No, totally on purpose. Next time. That was like 47. well played you're welcome I just set that up so you know you could win player struggled to get to nine Midhart was being kind for you even the best players in the world struggled to get to nine it's fine oh hit it you're in there over the edge come on you're in there Everything's under control. Situation normal. Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here. How are you?
    25:48
    Okay, so I have to tell a story on the we are fine thing because I was wearing a shirt today that said I'm fine. And it was a dumpster with a smiley face that was also on fire. And it says I'm fine.
    26:04
    I did not wear it here tonight. But it was literally that we are fine, yeah. We're really fine. Okay, so now I have to hit the A in Rad. Okay, okay. But it's on the left flipper, so we could try a little move I like to call shatting the bed. Oh.
    26:19
    That was so close. I hit the R. Yeah, that was very close. All right, so now we're going to try it from this side. Oh, it's really fun. Really? Yeah. But it was really cute and smiling. Oh, it totally went for me.
    26:36
    Nope, did not get there. Sorry, I was late. I thought the leg pickup would help, but... No pressure right now. It's so cute. Right? It's just a little tough. It's just called shatting. No, ZMAC, it's when you purposefully miss shatting. So you go to shat, but instead you hit the very bottom of the sling, and you ricochet the ball into the opposite side. I don't even know how to hit that. I don't feel like anything. How do you get it from here? Like, can I get it from the right flipper to hit the end? You can, absolutely. Where on the flipper is it? Just the tip. Hey-o.
    27:15
    I don't know if I like it. I don't like this shot. It's very cool. Oh! Did I? Oh! Very close. Oh, my God. Oh, why? So mean. It really was the tip of the flipper. I know. I was so close. The tip of the flip. Here's not your interview. I'm trying to do that. That's the goal. Yep, so if you do a lighter plunge and have it come down, you can kind of recapture it on that side. Didn't work. Now, DMACC, I was off by just a light plunge. At all. It's fine. Yep, yep, yep, you got it. Okay, now just literally the tip. Try to not hit it to use the dip. That was too much.
    27:56
    Now hit the swing and bounce off. There we go, so Pinstomniac. I see, I guess I need to be paying more attention. I will, I will, there will be plenty of opportunities for me to show you shafting the bed all night. Uh, you, it's, it's easy to get yourself in that situation, I feel like. So, we're gonna go that.
    28:28
    Um, you know what? Oh! Yay! Super easy. Fairly an inconvenience. It's not balkery. It's fine. Alley passing or shatting, which term is better? I think that shatting is better, personally. We'll do Mack also, because I'm a shatting-type guy.
    29:03
    Houston, we have a problem. Thank you. Disconnect. Okay. They're just food memento there. Back for a second. Yeah, I just reset everything a second time.
    30:33
    There it is. Activated. There is that. We should be back now. Now it's gone. We should be back, though, right? All good? We're fine? We're good?
    30:47
    Shooter, you did. We are fine. Okay, good. And then... We're all fine here now. Thank you. Somehow we also lost the players.
    30:56
    No, it's there. Nice. Oh, no. I'm an idiot. that's the game that needs to be reactivated, not the players. Boom. We're good, but now I need to... Okay, so we can start up another game. Yep, it's in. There. Am I doing it? It is whoever wants to go first You go first Okay George take your drink Oh I am totally that guy right now Okay What my goal right now Um, is it... R? Nope, nothing. R. You want to hit this red? Just hit those? Okay. But that drains you. But I want to get into there. Okay. Because then it will take you from all of that. Okay, let's see if I can have more than 10 seconds on here.
    31:44
    It's really nice. Alright. Nice. Yes! That was definitely more than I expected. I did it! Nicely done. Yeah, apparently I knocked a cable loose or something. That was great. I did it again! Oh my god. Buttons Brigade, why emote doesn't work? What emotes are you trying to do? Oh, yeah, those earlier just didn't seem like they were working. But we are better now. Let's just make sure our emotes are working.
    32:25
    Our emotes are working. George can't help it. He just nudges too hard. Dice yes. Absolutely. What just happened? I will do that. That was terrible. That's a lot of emos.
    32:44
    What am I doing? It was like the tiniest hit ever. I'm sorry. That was so bad. Old sock pun. Electronic, thank you for adding to that.
    33:11
    I am so sorry. Can you say that again? Sorry. Oh, wait, you're not. No, no, sorry. Say that one more time. Switching between different pinball machines that have totally different, even like how hard, with the flippers, how bouncy they are, different things like that. How do you switch in between and not just be immediately doing the wrong amount? No, that's a thing. I want to say it was Raymond Davidson who commented on that specifically. He referred to it as an adjustment period, and that was something that he felt he was really, really good at, was playing on one machine and then adjusting very quickly to the next machine. Because it's a league thing. When you have to go from game to game, there's really no dialogue. Yeah, or tournaments or any kind of competitive play, absolutely. You have to be able to switch.
    33:57
    Let's see here. You have to adjust quickly. ZMAC would absolutely. Yeah. I'm saying, is that like a thing that you learn over time? That's a really good question. ZMAC, is there... Can you say anything about that? Like in one ball. You have to figure that out. Like in one ball. Yes, DMACC, is that a skill that you can work on? All right. So now we've got the reactor lit and FPS. It's mine and we're going to get that back. That is the fastest adjustment period I've seen live. Ryan Wagner, Nick was saying. Oh, yeah. Ryan's amazing. Yeah. All right, so I've got a destroy right there. Okay. But I also can work on my multi-ball right now. I'm just going to go for the destroy because it is backhandable. Not like that.
    34:56
    Nice. Okay. Now I'm going to go. Yep. Is the what? It's to re-lock the ball so we can back the ball to hit the grid and not drink. Okay.
    35:16
    I've never learned it. I get a feeling for the shots and change them depending on where they are in the new game. That totally makes sense. So I have a pinball now at home. Just going to take a second. And so these are just... You've got a minute to breathe. Yeah. And so I found that, like, for example, I have to hit very lightly because it's super reactive, but yet then I'm too soft, right, hitting the flippers here because it's not as reactive. So it's just one of those things where I'm like, oh, yeah, okay, not that good. No, and specifically this spooky game is very unique in my opinion. The flippers feel very different than every other game. They're, like, really solid. I don't know how to describe it. They feel very solid and, I don't know. Yeah, I don't have words. Yeah, I don't know. I guess if I could use an adjective to describe it, I would call them... ...slippery.
    36:12
    Okay. Yes. When playing for fun, practice, and don't play the same game twice. I know, Machine, that totally makes sense. Of course, now, like, we only need to do this when we're playing one game.
    36:26
    But, see, I don't know. We get multiple cameras. People who play multiple games, maybe quiet, will play in the background. May have an opportunity during Sunday if anyone has a passing interest I'm going to a tournament at Titletown Pinball for a bachelor party and they have about 90 pins that's awesome that sounds awesome bachelor party at a pinball location bachelor party stream sounds dangerous that is a really good point ZMAX if you're asking me I have the Data East Star Trek which was apparently Richard Shreds the last time you were on it was specifically Z-Mac who ripped it to threads last stream. Are you about to say it's terrible? Is that you? Okay, mock me. It's fine.
    37:08
    Hi, Molly Hatchet. Hi, Molly. Welcome to the stream. Alright, so second reactor is destroyed. Now I need to work on getting back into multiball.
    37:22
    I stand by my views. That's fine. But that's where I'm starting for my first at-home pinball. So, So... At least it's not Day to Eat Simpsons. At least it's... Oh, no.
    37:41
    Here's the thing. The shots fall short a lot. Yeah. But they're real fast if they get in flames or the pop bumpers. It's terrible. There it is.
    37:53
    Definitely tuning in for that. Dad bomb. Got another lock, so that's it, man. It's just wash, rinse, repeat over and over.
    38:04
    And if you can do that, I feel like that's amazing. Although Ty is against that. Why? I don't know. Against what? The skill shot.
    38:14
    I just did the thing I have always wanted to do. I wanted to be able to do it from both directions. That sounds... Please flip that. Yeah, so I have wanted... So it's really easy to do this side going up, but I thought if you could get it going the opposite direction and do the same let it bounce and go up, it would hit the mystery or the reactor shot perfectly. Yep. And it did. That was the first time. I'm happy I got to try that.
    38:38
    Just a grid. Really? So I want to keep that going up top there while I figure out... Wow. That did not just happen. It was fine. But hey, you got them all saved for two. It gave me one extra back. Yeah. All right, so now I need to hit that shot, the far right one, twice. I'm going to try and do the over-under. That worked out really well. What time?
    39:12
    Okay, I'll update on this for you to see on my channel or on the title comic. It didn't work. Crap. So now do I go for it? Do I go for that one shot to unlock? Yes. Yeah, I think I do.
    39:32
    Really easy backhand from here. Don't fail me now. Scoop is what he's going for now. Or I can go for multi. What I want to do actually is re-enable locks. Because the cool thing is the first time I lock a ball, if I can do that, I can plunge up into the middle and get the start reactor for free.
    39:52
    I like how he's talking and yelling at us while we're trying to play a game. It's not always about you, man.
    40:04
    That every minute. Here we go, one block. Try that again. There it is. Now I'm going to try and plunge up top. Oh, so close. That's at 47%, George. No, that was like 51. It's fine. It's fine. I'm going to lock it again. I get another try.
    40:33
    That's it. Oh, yeah, that was it. All right, so now we're going to start the reactor. Love this light show. You can see it's hacking the password right now. We're actually gaining access to the reactor. Yeah, Midhart, it does. Scarlet. So, Carol is hacking the system. Dammit! Now that I'm in this, I actually, I don't want to... Can we yell out, hack the planet, right now?
    40:57
    Yeah, please yell out, hack the planet. It's my childhood. It is my entire... I am in computers because... Because of hackers. Yes, hack the planet. So, pop bumper, and she retargets at the top.
    41:17
    Good. You got a pop bumper, one destroy. Where is it? Oh, right. That destroy. I'm like the other red one, you have two reds. Nice! And you're still in a multiball.
    41:39
    Oh, I keep going, I'll hit you again. So it should react then? Yep. Start. Crap. Easier from the left, so now we're going to hit that, start the next reactor. I don't know what we're on right now, but it should be new music once it actually hits. Right, correct. So it just happened to match the post-buff exactly as it was posted. I don't believe that for a second. What was that? You maxed the bot posting right when it did, and some things like that just happen, so there's no way to, like, you're not controlling it.
    42:18
    It is, it's on minutes. Okay, so cool, now we're at reactor number four. Exactly. Right? And guys, it's not a matrix. This side is lit. It's back to planet. So if I go this route, it's going to go all the way over. Oh, okay. Because it's not the paint. Oh, you're saying, yeah.
    42:34
    Magenta, whatever. Parts. Drop. Okay. There you go. So, you also can just... Fuzzy cord. That's the planet. We're tracking our life in. You did it straight in. You're already on the numbers. If I don't do that, I'm going with this. Or should I go for that too? I'm so sad that he said that. Budget matrix? I know. I'm sorry. Who was that that diced? 50%. Yeah, diced. Free matrix, dude. Way free matrix. Oh my God.
    43:04
    It was like a 50. Diced. No. I thought we tried hacking the planet and everyone got all bent out of shape because it was called fracking.
    43:17
    Whoa! Yes, Hackers was before Matrix. Hackers was like, the Matrix was 98, I think. And Hackers, I think, was 93, maybe, 94. Or, if somebody wants to look that up, six years before. There you go. Oh!
    43:39
    No. So close. You can lock a ball and try again. Oh, no. Oh, that was not it. Or I can just shoot that goo. Can you guys hear the music okay? Or this. Do I need to turn the music up? Yes.
    43:55
    I thought that was the year 2000 and nothing happened. No, it was already over. Or we just go more scammers. Wait. Actors? It's a movie? VMAX, yes it is.
    44:06
    Angelina Jolie, I don't remember the actor, the guy actor's name. He is in Elementary, because it doesn't include Angelina. Because she's acid burn! It's like the best thing ever. Crash Override, acid burn. Yes. Oh, short. Okay.
    44:23
    I'm in there. I lost the multi-ball. Oh, that's a... Oh, the actual planet and all that stuff. No. Why did I... Well, I won't get a save. Gosh, that was terrible. I overheated it. Okay. And it was ready to be destroyed. Yeah. Zero cool. She killed a car. She cored. You get it. Yeah.
    44:47
    She had the... Yeah. I don't know if she's lying. She's killing cars. Oh. And they're sitting in the car. And they're talking about it. I didn't mean to try to have my hair like that for so long.
    44:57
    Yeah. Goals. Hashtag life goals. When my hair was too short and this long to that short, non-conform, it would be a problem with tackles. I literally just watched Terminator the other day and I was like, if you're going to do the Terminator, it would be natural aesthetics. Like, am I going to just wear everything he wears? I would be totally out of it.
    45:26
    So I feel like when I hit the right flipper when I was in multiball, Like, you should just hit the button really hard because I'm, like, feeling like it wasn't...
    45:34
    I don't know. I apologize. I am not paying attention. I wasn't at the moment that you said that. I was in multiple and I'm hitting the right flipper. It feels like it's not hitting as powerfully as it should. I kind of felt that actually for a minute. Yeah. I'm like, that right flipper is not doing anything. I'm like, oh, I'm hitting it. Sorry, just checking if that was good. No, it does feel a little... Like, it's not reacting the same way. Yep.
    45:57
    Oh, pun. Ha ha. Gone in 60 seconds with Christopher Eccleston. I don't know his name. Before he was the doctor. I don't know who the doctor is. I think Matthew Lillard is a better voice actor. Oh, that doctor. I'm live one. Only like... Like Doctor Who. Yeah. Whoa!
    46:14
    That spun backwards mid-table. That was awful. That was rude. That was very rude. You're off. Okay, I'll be better this time. Okay. What am I going for? This, this, and then what else? Grid. So you want to hit, you've got to light up all the grid. It's not lit up. But if you hit that, you can potentially drain, so you want to try to lock the box. Try to get locked. So that way you can run multiple and not die. ZMack, have a wonderful evening. Looking forward to Monday as well. Guys, ZMack and I are going to duel one more time, at least one more time, and next time it's going to be on Star Trek on Monday. And so DMACC just beat me yesterday in Ghostbusters, and then if you didn't see it today, he beat Ryan Wenger on his stream on ACDC. Heck of a good job playing. Yeah, seriously.
    47:11
    And the knife doctor was still necessary before 10 minutes. Okay. 10 minutes, everyone's doctor. Took a pic with him with his red hair. Good omens. That's awesome, Button Brigades. And ZMAC is going to be on stream on Friday. Okay, awesome.
    47:30
    Come on. Or, come on, do something. Nope. So that flashing white light, by the way, is a ten seconds of ball save. Come on.
    47:43
    Nope. There you go. You got a mystery. Mystery. Is Eccleston I don't know how to pronounce that guy's last name Oh why? Is he also one of the writers? No, that's something Smith, right?
    48:05
    Who was a doctor and he's a writer for a lot of those episodes Oh come on Oh! Oh, that game got stopped. Yeah. That's why things are rude.
    48:23
    Come on. Everything but the shot I need. Oh, cool. Thank you. I appreciate it. Eccleston. Oh, Eccleston. There you go. With a capital E, that's where the emphasis goes on that particular syllable.
    48:39
    I got to unlock it with my mystery. I did not watch any of the... I watched the very, not the very first, I watched the first season of like the new bunches of doctors. The one with the crazy guy.
    48:55
    I never track up. And then stopped shortly after, I think I made it through 10 in season. If you can make it in, the react is a lot. Okay. I got that one. Make it in, stop making it. Can do. This is what we're going to do. 54%. I messed that up really badly. That was not 54%. Nope.
    49:15
    A little too hard. That was cool. That's what I'm saying, like it's not... You didn't even danger, did you? I got one danger. Y'all know that this one is really, really sensitive. Okay, we backhanded it that time. No, no, grrr! Ooh, I think this might give me back a... Nope, it maxed the reactive. I'm going to go with a ball lock and then a plunge. Yes!
    49:56
    That was that danger, and that sucked. That was ball three. Man, we did not defeat five, but we'll get there. We are. We're getting better. Okay. Did we lose the cameras again? I'm going to try moving it. Let's hope this does not... No, we're fine. We're fine. There's no issue. We moved it, and it's all good. Okay. What is this machine called? It's Total Nuclear Annihilation.
    50:40
    I'm just going to be looking at you. Total nuclear deniability. I'm in denial about this game. This reference is TNA. Who's going first? We each went first. You haven't gone first. I haven't gone first? I will go first. Are we starting over? Yes. Exactly. That's what I was saying and looking at it.
    50:59
    What makes this table so popular or different? It's one level. I'm going to ball. Did you hear this thing flashing fade-wise?
    51:10
    Wait, what? What was that? Big text. Yeah, this is a beautiful movie. No doubt about it. What is the thing about flashing save lights? What's the flashing save light? What was everyone saying with that? Okay, so I was starting to explain maybe one of the slightly more complicated parts of the game, which has to do with, you see the words save and all of the outlanes? If you can color enough of those in by getting the ball to roll over a rollover that isn't currently lit, If you can do that for three, if you can get three rollovers, it will light the fourth one white. Okay. And a white, you can also move those around. I can't do it right now because I'm trapped up. But every time you hit a flipper, which one is lit will rotate. Okay. Does that make sense so far? And if it goes down that lane, then you get a ball hit. Yeah, if you move the flashing white shot to a lane where the rollover gets hit. And you can do it with the flipper, correct? Yes, and you can do it with the flipper. Exactly. So.
    52:11
    You don't need to exhibit how to save the ball right now. Just beat the game. Two more shots. A minute to learn the rules, a lifetime to master the game. Yeah. Every game in a nutshell, it's a carnival game, easy to learn, incredibly difficult to beat.
    52:30
    Yep. Why we're all here. One more. All right. Under, over. I call him Tina he calls the game Tina yes he does oh come on seriously the right slipper no that wasn't the right slipper then it was you it was all me it was my fault it's not that everyone else is bad wait the other way around it's not that I'm good it's that everyone else is bad what we build is fun it just happens to come in a box That was the, uh, when you're like, George, you sounded like an ass. I'm like, no, no, no, because I had won the league, and I'm like, no, no, it wasn't me being good. It was that everybody else just sucked.
    53:23
    No, it wasn't that. It was that I walk in, and you're like, come do me, Tiffany. I'm like, oh, it sounds so fun. I want to do that.
    53:29
    I've never been to pinball arcade before, and then they're like, so yeah, I know, it was the one last time. I said, don't panic. I mean, you're paying your money. You're paying your money. You must be a billionaire. If you're waiting, you've got to watch it. That is awesome. Give him a sub. Thank you very much. My hat's off to you. Button for Kate. You're amazing. Thank you. You have the hat. Oh, my God. I can actually take off my hat. I never wear a hat. Yes. Thank you. I'm like, stop it. You have a real hat. Okay. Also, perfect opportunity here, guys, to show off the shatsing the bed. So we're not, I can't believe you subscribed to Don't Panic. I mean, you're paying your money. You're not a billionaire.
    54:23
    If you're wasting your money watching. Sharing is caring. It is. Button Brigade. Utilizing Care Bears. You were just talking about them. Right? And thank you again. I can take my actual hat off. Sorry, that beer is so good. I feel like I'm about to start drooling every time I lean over.
    54:45
    So I'm trying really hard not to do that. Okay, but really quick, this is an opportunity to show off. I can't believe you subscribed to Don't Pay Me. And subscribed himself. That's amazing. Button Brigade. Thank you so much. You must not be a billionaire. there. You're wasting your money. Dual resistant glass. Are you taking notes? Turn exactly. Yes. So, chatsing the bed. Not chatsing. So, chatsing would be where you hit it from one flipper up the in lane and it goes out. That's chatsing. We're not going to do that. We're going to miss chatsing by that much and hit the bottom corner of the sling and get it to ricochet into the destroyer.
    55:29
    Totally. See, that one we shat the bed. Yeah, so close. Also, I am ready for another beer. Is anybody else?
    55:41
    Close, but not. Okay. Yeah, I can do it. Yeah, I do it because I'll be ready in a second. Okay, what's my goal right now? What am I doing? This pop-up right here. This one here? You just need to hit that shot. So just go ahead and plunge? So just hit that shot? Hit that big white flashing circle. Yep.
    56:05
    No! Okay, so you have a bald face. And when it starts to do that, release the slipper again. You don't want it to keep going down. So you can slow it down. So you can slow it down and... Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no! Ah! Whoa, whoa, whoa!
    56:26
    No! Oh! One through the screen for you. Yes. What did you say? What? Oh, come on. I'm going to go after this a different way. Oh, good. And I figured out the top play field. That's what I was talking about.
    56:57
    It's going. I did nothing. That technically counts. Yeah, it does. Come on. Pull it down. Random. Sawtooth Dale for a pineapple golden.
    57:11
    I'll take this. Okay. Sawtooth Dale from the left-hand side. Oh, not that. There's a ball lock and the pop, the nuclear. Nuclear.
    57:21
    I'm going to say it wrong all night now because I heard it wrong once. I apologize. I'll just say it again. Also, what are we drinking this evening? This is Stem Cider's Hibiscus Session Apple Cider, 4.3%. And what did you just crack? A Sawtooth Ale, which is... Left-hand brewing. Yeah, left-hand. Amber. Okay. Yeah. It's pretty good. And then what do you got? I've got a pineapple gold ale that tells me to chillax. There you go. With tentacles. We're all pretty familiar with chillax. That is my, that's my go-to. So, by the way, Unknown Machine 1, you didn't know it's called a Lazarus when it came back up? Oh, yeah, yeah. Yeah, when it came down and came back up. So, it was like, it did a little. And then it moved. Into the middle and came back out. Yep. All right. Cool. So ball one, we got one reactor.
    58:18
    Awesome, awesome. Excellent job. All right, so two more shots. One more shot. There it is. Get in there. Third time's the charm.
    59:04
    Alright, now I want to backhand the left to keep my left flipper free, so that way I can actually use it while I'm up there. I think if this is a really easy forehand for some reason, but it's also an easy backhand. So now I can do that, and I can overheat it.
    59:36
    All right. So we destroyed that reactor. Now we've got to get back into multiball. Now this first shot is a little dangerous, actually. Just like that.
    59:50
    The way it reflects off that, you either have to hit it a little early or a little late and just tap it. Tap it in.
    59:59
    Oh, George, I know you're not one for IPAs anymore, but I've got one I have to bring you when I come visit. It's called Pallet Destroyer. Wow. What's that?
    60:11
    Oh, yeah, we should do a... It's 11 o'clock. We should do... I mean... The TPN thing. Yeah, so after this game, we will break quickly for bathrooms and beer and drinks and whatnot and show you guys the TPN thing again.
    60:29
    Well, I got one ball in. The hashtag bite the hit pinball. I absolutely love that. I think I heard the pallet destroyer. Dice, I'm in. The pellet destroyer sounds wonderful. I will try just about anything. Okay.
    60:48
    That was a dead end there, right? That was excellent, yes. Was it intentional? Yes, it was. Okay, awesome. I mean, I was trying.
    60:56
    I like to not have it bouncing and flying over. Oh, yay. I finally got that cut. I know. You can go now. What up, Bob?
    61:05
    Ooh. Game of all games. Nice. Come on. Yep, now gimme... Now gimme... Button Brigade! Coming in with a first at one viewer! Nice shot! All the accuracy! I can't remember how to play! I swear, I did it one time. It is very pineapple. You like it? Yeah. I like sweet beers. Get in that video, preferably in dinosaur masks. Absolutely. It's a thing that it's ready. The reactor's unlocked. You can just plunge there. There's two balls. It's a perfect setup. Is that a go? It's like a green. I like this. Yeah. That was totally it. That was good.
    61:56
    That was definitely a 32%. Yeah. It's fine. Just hit the multiball. Just do it. I kind of want to save the multiball for after this. Okay, so hit the orbit. Why are you hitting me with a scoot?
    62:18
    I'm trying! There we go. Nice and easy. Up and around. Go, go! Oh, so mean! Totally nothing happened. We're fine. We're all fine here. We're fine, game.
    62:38
    Taste buds and bowels. This time I saw someone drink a shot of liquid smoke for That sounds disgusting Oh my god that sounds so bad Hello Pinball Howard
    62:53
    Pinball Howard! How are you saying hello? Welcome to the stream. As a new player, it took me a while to realize how much I could learn from watching better players. It also took a while to figure out what I was learning from them.
    63:06
    Tyson, they tasted smoke for a week after we were even brushing their teeth. Where is it? Oh, we need the A. That's a totally easy shot.
    63:15
    So unknown machine, definitely myself as well. I actually feel pretty lucky that I literally started playing pinball for the first time in my life with somebody who just went to the... No, because I feel like it takes a long time to unlearn things versus going to the right the first time. So just be really humble and know you're going to lose a lot, but you will constantly learn things, which is the funnest part.
    63:46
    Come on. Oh, we're redoing the grid. Nice. Yep. We are on three. Oh, we're on four. Sure. Arrgh. So grid or ball lock? Grid or ball lock? Ball lock. Unknown Machine, that is a really cool... That's really cool.
    64:15
    The taste of smoke for a week afterwards. That is... Okay, there we go. I would go tuna fish sandwich over a bottle of liquid smoke. George doesn't just win at league. It's just that everyone else does. And that's the thing. They're all amazing, highly ranked players. It was just one day where they all had really bad days, like all of them together. And I had a mediocre, but consistently mediocre day.
    64:52
    The goal for everyone. A consistently mediocre day. Yes. No joke. That's all I did. I asked to go first, and I put up an okay ball every time I played. And everybody else just had a struggle at some point. Yes. Okay, so I'm locked. Oh. Why? That was... I had nudged. There was no flipper. This game is so hard to nudge. It has like a low center of gravity. I know, and I'm... And I don't nudge. I can't nudge. Okay, so are you taking your brought-to-you-by commercial break? Yes, that's right. Okay, guys, I am part of the TPN network. So are many other people on this stream. Let's break for a second and show you guys a bunch of people that are part of TPN, and then we'll walk through the upcoming schedule. Say goodbye to somebody who gave everybody else a hug. Button Brigade, have a wonderful evening. Enjoy sleep, and hope to see you again on Thursday. or anytime on other streams. I feel like I ran into you on a Fliptronic stream earlier today as well. So cheers and thank you again very much. And TPN there.
    66:20
    Thank you. Can I just buy you a really quiet thing? You guys, what do we have coming up this week? We have What the Flip on Wednesday afternoon. We have one iPod, one pinball a little bit later that same afternoon. We have SDTM straight down the middle. I feel like I stumbled on that a little bit later yet that afternoon, bordering on early evening in Mountain Time. Then we have Just Another Pinball, who is also the same person who does Just Another Pinball podcast. On Wednesday, at that point, that's definitely evening, 8 to 10 p.m. And finally, we have the Pinsomniac from 9.30 to 12 on Wednesday. Wednesday is busy. And then we have Fliptronic again on Thursday from 6 to 8.30. That is the final person on the most upcoming list. Guys, I am so jazzed now that we have so many people actively in TPN. When I first created that widget, it was typically me, then me again, and then maybe one or two other people, and then me, and then it would just wrap back to me. And at this point, it's awesome. TPN is blowing up. We have so many affiliate streamers, especially ones that just recently joined, like Just Another Pinball Podcast, a.k.a. Just Another Pinball Stream, I think. And we have Fliptronic. We have the Pinsomniac. We have Wall Pinball. We have Jedi McMuffin, who just joined us here a moment ago. It's getting really, really exciting. It makes for a really good conversation on the Discord. and it's just a group of people who are interested in providing pinball content and are willing to help each other kind of get there and either do it better or just do it in a way that kind of helps out the community as a whole. It's really, really cool. I am really enjoying being a part of it.
    69:31
    And on that note, Fliptronic made me do a pull-up, so we will initiate that as soon as we get this next game going. And, guys, we are not going to co-op. I can't believe you subscribed to Don't Panic Flip. I mean, you're paying your money. You must be a billionaire if you're wasting your money watching. Okay, I've got two things to say first, and I've got to prioritize this because Jedi McMuffin just subbed. Jedi, my hat's off to you. Thank you. You're amazing. and another member of the TPM, the Pinball Network, Affiliate Streaming Network.
    70:15
    It's weird to say that because I want to say that part of the TPN network, but I would just say part of the TPN. That comes off a little. I've got to work on that. I'll figure out what it is that we want to say there. And two, Dice will be bouncing in and out. I'm making a Whopper malted milk ice cream pie for, uh, Cararas, Cararas? Damn it. You explained how to pronounce that name once already, and I'm butchering it. But for somebody else's birthday tomorrow, that sounds amazing. I would love to try a Whopper malted milk ice cream pie. It sounds awesome. So, let's get this going. We're now playing verses, which means that we can steal each other's locks. So, during the time I go to church, and not just healing hours, and the chance that we get to feel this. Okay. Otherwise, that's very nice. Yeah, yeah. That's what I'm here for. Do you want to go to the third? And I know, do you want to go to the third? I want to go to the third. The third. I feel like as the weakest link in this. Take everything you can get. I will take all of you guys. Take what you can, give nothing back, right? Yeah. That would be nice. Occasionally I have my moments. He does that on purpose.
    71:40
    Alright, so we've got a lot of shots to make up here. I'm just letting that go. Nice. Nice save too. Alright, and we hit that. Oh, that was... see that kind of stuff. I don't know how you do that. That was amazing. Thank you. No, I'm just like trying to split. I'm like, yep, nope, it's just chaos. They don't just go vertically and re-land on the flipper. Like, that doesn't happen. Let's try that again, shall we?
    72:33
    God, that sucks. All right. Oh, yeah. Pinball Howard, I can totally see that. This game is great for improving your drop catches and live catches. I have actually done that tonight. Now that you know, I'm like, oh, it's like on purpose.
    72:52
    All right. I feel like I can only backhand that, but it's being a jerk. You can totally not. Oh. Oh, you already did this joke. Like, oh, you're done. Yep. I didn't leave you anything, and I'm so sorry about that. Oh, yeah, thank you. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
    73:13
    Pinball Howard. How are you doing? You guys, what other stream? G Black, welcome to the stream. And there you go, link to the Discord right there. It was Sierra. Thank you. I'm sorry, guys.
    73:26
    You can't do that? Like, from that side? You can't do that one? What? No, no, no. Well played. Ah!
    73:40
    You can only do that one. So, active streamers that we have on the stream right now, we've got Jedi McMuffin, Pinball Howard, we've got Teletronic, the Pinstomniac, MPG3K, Bex Rex is also a part of Fliptronic.
    74:00
    Hold on. I'm just scrolling up right now and going through everybody I know that is a streamer. Got it. Okay. And I'm probably missing people. MPG3K.
    74:15
    All the people. Yakuza, I didn't even see that you were on here. Whoa! That just got mad air. That was Matt. So anyway, I think that's most everybody. If it didn't literally leap over the entire play field. And there was like a metal on metal sound. It was not nice. So if you have not checked out those content creators, you definitely should.
    74:43
    You are. Look at you. 10,000. It's just a tip, but it counts. It counts. Absolutely. I think this pie is the first time I've ever actually bought Whoppers. They were always just kind of around. Okay. I have to keep them around. That is my wife's absolutely favorite treat with Whoppers.
    75:09
    Hey, thank you so much for the host. You'll notice I'm using the hand can from MPG3K, but I went black and white like you had it the other day. I like it. No!
    75:22
    What did you do? Oh, thank you so much. Thank you. You're doing so well for me, not for you. Ha, the fatal attraction. Feeling pretty good here about this one.
    75:51
    Whoppers are made amazing. Great movie to watch this fatal attraction. Got that. I'll let you know how the pie turns out.
    76:34
    Well, I was trying to hit down that grid while we were in multiball there at the end, but that did not work out very well. Oh, that sucked. I hit the funny bone.
    76:51
    There's a point where the ball does not jump over nicely to the other side, and if you hit that exact spot where the metal and plastic meet the flipper, it just dies instantly, rolls straight down the flipper and goes down the middle. It's awful. I call that the funny part. Okay, so if I can hit the shot to get up on the top, I can... Uh, Whoppers are chocolate-covered poison. Come on. Yes, they are. I can't feel. Not a bad show, Slicktronic. I recommend it. Uh, fatal attraction. Nope, nope. Fatal attraction, that's right. This is why I comment separately. We have different tastes in candy, and you're wrong, Slicktronic. Whoppers are amazing treats and get even better for Easter when they have candy-coated whoppers. Robin's eggs, okay? Yeah, Robin's egg is so good. Well, wait a second, wait a second. I feel like we need to have a conversation about cookie choices here. Come on, fall safe. Because we started this evening. It's like chocolate chips, and it's definitely not me. Now, I did say that if I was on, like, a desert island, and it was the difference between eating coconuts 200 times and having a chocolate chip cookie. I would have a chocolate chip cookie. I don't hate them. They have so little flavor as compared to peanut butter cookies or a really well made oatmeal raisin. With chocolate chip oatmeal raisin would be better. Everything is better with chocolate. I don't understand the problem. I honestly just don't get it. I can actually sense from the back of my head Amazing tree.
    78:27
    See, that's the problem right there. No, no, no. You like milk chocolate. Milk chocolate is not chocolate. I mean, you should play.
    78:38
    Say. And what do we got here? You're funny, but that's humorous. Okay. Hit it one more time. That's a point. That's a point, guys. Whoppers are just candy represent... Yes! Oh, my God. What? Yes. What? Are you just a candy representative of empty dreams? But now I don't know what I'm supposed to do now that I've got the grits.
    78:59
    The malt teasers are better than Whoppers if you're ever going to compete against them. The other day, Becky got a scoop of chocolate chip and one scoop of chocolate cookie dough. Like, why not two scoops of cookie dough? But, Tronic, I agree. Cookie dough is better. Cookie dough is good, yes. So, I would start. What am I doing? Where am I going? Or you want to start locking balls? Hit the grid. Honestly, I like almond sugar cookies. Those are my, I think almond sugar cookies are my favorites. That was awesome. Great moment. One had more chocolate. I can't say anything. That was awesome. But more cookie dough. Why is there always no food? Go to work.
    79:39
    I want to play football. Everything's about food. George didn't even see my cool stuff. Oh, I'm sorry. I was catching up on chat. Well, yeah.
    79:55
    I'll do better. I will do better. Oh my God, you were trying to talk to me while I was in like a really difficult position. Right now, I have a really important question right now. You only like them all.
    80:12
    Is it the red or blue pill? I didn't know, and I think you just tell me. Those outer lanes are brutal right now.
    80:22
    No, no, no, no! Ah! Look at that! Boom! Nice! I guess we're fine here. Yes. I'm going to know your... Oh my... Just get there! Get there!
    81:05
    You're not in pace tonight. No! Just get there! Right now! What time is it? It's not about the destination. It's the journey. Who's pace so much better than playing on the team? We just talked about the pinball machine diner and the food target. That's amazing. That sandwich was a shot of like... Oh! Alright, so we got the reactor unlocked and now that we're playing individually, I can get an extra ball once I start the third reactor. But let's see if I can do that. Cool, cool, cool, cool. Where's your, where's your destroy target? It's not lit, I have to hit the reactor. Oh, you have to start it, okay, so you have to... Oh, that's not great. I mean, yeah. Uh, extra ball. And free game, I think, at the same time, actually. The NK! Extra ball.
    82:09
    Yep. Big money, no whammy. Nice recovery, by the way. Oh, you have the A again. Thank you. No, I was just saying that. That's like one of the hardest shots for the story. The D. The D is much harder.
    82:48
    It is! Oh, my God! Please tell me somebody clipped that. George is full of amazing witnesses. Praising! Are we not doing praising anymore? It's important.
    83:05
    The Internet caught it. It's fine. It is! It's the most difficult shot! Alright, so one more there or I can start working towards multi-ball. I don't want to hit that shot again. You saw it. I said it was dangerous and what happened? I hit it and it ricocheted right down the middle. I don't like that shot. I also don't like that shot. Oh, headbutt it. No, no, no, no. You're all so bad. Sorry, headbutt it. Sorry, I've been the way. Oh, shoot again? Oh, yeah, that's right. I have the extra ball. Cool. Don't be a child. The player obviously needs to... I have a command for that. Need the D. Because there's so many... There's so many games where you need the D in order to complete some mode. Look how your bot defends you.
    84:05
    Oh, yes. That was fantastic. Okay. Or multiball. Multiball. I'm going to try and plunge up into the middle. That was very weak. 42.
    84:15
    Nice. Now it's clearly on purpose. Spudge! That was way too hard. That was awesome. Totally worth it. You just made it in the upper play field by scooting past the scooters? Yeah. That was totally very good. How was it? I didn't know that. I didn't go in the scooters, nor did it go on 2020. There's so many games that need the D.
    84:56
    The hardest shot in the game. That's better for life. Unless we're talking to an ACC, then it's always called for.
    85:09
    All right. Nice! Oh, that was mean. That was so mean. Quit being mean, game! Come on. What is that? That is just being rude. You're very rude. Every time. Every time. Game! Nope. Oh my god. Okay, come on. It needs to not go in that inlet. There we go. Now backhand the orbit. This is fine.
    85:44
    Okay, now you... I got him so mean. They don't want you to get number five. That's the problem. Okay. Now we've got all of the rad targets and the destroy. What ball is this? This is ball three? Yes, it is. That sucks.
    86:11
    Not mine, but yours. That sucks. I'm sorry. It's hard. It's very hard. Especially if you make the orbit like ten times, getting up a playfield ten times, and it just drains out every time. I'm just like, ah. Where am I? Oh, I have a destroyed target, apparently. Yep, yep, yep. Total nuclear George. We love pinball. Simon, how are you? Great stream earlier today. Ah! I don't remember if I said anything, but I definitely lurked for a while.
    86:42
    Oh, it's all locked. Come on, I want to hit that. Prost, by the way. Yes, cheers. What? Unless we're talking, yeah. It's always, yeah, there's never, never not a good time for Tenacious Game. We go there for waiting. I need it. Woo! Yes! Look at that! Reactor one done, now you're ready to work towards reactor two.
    87:14
    Oh, not there. Or that. One more shot on the grid. Come on. Oh. Don't do that. Not that. So remember, oh, you didn't have it lit. It's not. No, no. I didn't. Yeah, you were thinking. I got one, though. I got one reactor. Remember that time George got to reactor nine? Me neither. Thank you. Whoa.
    87:40
    Whoa. I know. But what happened? What happened after reactor nine? I think the game just ends. I think. Or it blows up. Yeah. I don't know because it never happened. C&K, I do have brick and mortar number 367. That'll probably be Christmas of next year. It will be Christmas, hopefully by Christmas of this year. Nice. You started it? All right, now I'm watching. Let's see it. Well, now that you're watching, it's not going to happen. Don't freak me out.
    88:10
    Perfect. So hit either orbit. We just want to go as far down on the flippers. Oh, purple. The purple? Yep, you want to get it in the top.
    88:18
    Oh, really close. Oh! And just backhand the blank. Oh! Ah! Good try, good try. That was awesome though. Meow. Okay.
    88:28
    Do you want to go first, second, or third for the next game? Anne, are we co-oping or do we versus each other? No, two versus again. First one more? Yeah, let's do versus one more. Okay. Yeah, let's try it. Yeah, that's fine. What order do you want to go? Uh, what, I don't, I don't care. One, two, three. Okay, agreed. Okay, apparently it caught up. I'll go first. Okay. Sweet. Let's see it again. I'll go first. I will go second. Bye. Prices and eliminations. No, no, no, no. Ball save. You got this. Ball save. No. Well, there we go. There we go. It's okay. That right there, I feel like it's just practice, honestly. Exactly. Yeah, just more practice with him. Yeah. Just more practice with it. You'll get better. That's all I believe in.
    89:23
    I just don't think that's about to do anything. I'm not taking it seriously. Okay. As long as George doesn't swap out the LCD screen, Tenside might lose its blank and start a whole controversy about nothing. By the way, are we just listening to the music because it's awesome or are we not listening to the music so the man doesn't shut you down? Because it's awesome. Okay, I assume that was awesome. Yeah, I was thinking because Avi hasn't ever played this game, this is your first time to go through it. Yeah, I love it. It's the most amazing thing, because you're losing every time. Right? That's so cool. Yeah. It's just like an addition to that, and everything else is really cool. Yeah. It's like... I can't ask any questions.
    90:16
    Sorry. Have you ever listened to Ernie Klein? Ernest Klein, he does spoken word stuff about being a nerd.
    90:26
    Ernest Klein wrote Ready Player One. Correct. He also just spoke in words, though, about being a nerd. It's amazing. Dance monkeys dance and the geek wants out and stuff like that. I think you would appreciate it. I like the dance monkeys dance. I know. I don't think I've heard that. Listen to it. It's amazing. Okay. It's amazing. Okay.
    90:52
    We're not. Come on. Or that. Cool. Ball save. Or that. Not that. Oh, I can't even practice that. Oh, almost back into scoop. Oh, come on, scoop. Yeah.
    91:17
    Come on. Okay. You're going to the arc? I'm going to the loop now. You're going to the loop. Okay. Oh, not that. Like that.
    91:38
    No, game? No. Oh, garbage. Oh, thank you. Oh, I could have redone that. Hold on. What? No. Oh, come on.
    91:56
    What is this garbage? Oh, my gosh. Okay, come on. So of course, George isn't here. He's not going to believe any of these things. So where is my... Oh, the pop-up. We're on the right.
    92:09
    Come on. Have you seen the... Come on, Eric. Yes! Oh, no! Come on. Sorry, what? The Mad Max Fury Road. Yes, because that's what I want to look like. They spray their faces with silver. That's how I feel.
    92:31
    So my best fall of the whole game, and George isn't here to see it. Just remember this, Internet. I'm with you. I see you.
    92:41
    Nailing it. Yes. Oh, that just happened. Come on. Come on, hit the. Oh, not that. So I did get a reactor and got multi-ball after and did all this my first ball while you weren't here. Okay. The internet. We saw it, right? This is on the internet. Yes.
    93:13
    Nicely done. Oh, not bad. Good nudge. Solid nudge there. Reactors unlocked. It's like I know how to play the game. Ball one. Oh, one more pull-up. I'm going to do that. Come on.
    93:36
    Yes! What is this? What is that? We're going to get that back. Don't worry. We're going to get it back. Nope. Not going to get it. Ooh. Come on. I would say good nudge, but I think that was just a really good hop. Yeah, it was a hop. Yeah. So she says.
    93:55
    I mean, I didn't see it. I would really suggest trying the back flip there the next time you're on the left flipper. I find that to be way easier. That also works What is this Oh come on No no no
    94:14
    That's a really good ball one. I almost got a second reactor on ball one. That was good. Very impressive. Yeah.
    94:25
    I was like, no, this is happening. For one, usually the Internet doesn't see if the screen cuts out when I get the amazing ball. And you're like, no, it really happened. And almost George needs to know that it actually happened. Yeah, yeah, no, no, no. We'll go back and we'll flip it. Ah! George isn't there to see Christine do awesome. By the way, Electronics said, got to meet Ernie multiple times. Nice guy. I also got him to sign my first edition. So, ball lock or that left target on the grid? What? No, the left target. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Blue lights. Yep, blue lights or ball locks. Neither. Or neither. Real close, though, because you hit the scoop. So. Oh, no, no, no. Be cool. Be cool, ball. The point's a little near the end. It helps when you talk to the ball. I'm just trying to calm it down. Right, it's kind of like talking to trees and things. Like that's supposed to make them... I mean, there's a reason to that. Something about excess, like, carbon dioxide or something. You can use lock if you want the point. Yeah, pop and knock. George, is it necessary? The dancing moves? We have a dancing stream? Is that necessary? I mean, popping up is so good! No, no, no, I know! Okay, okay, okay, stop. You got this. Yes! Exactly! Nice lock shot, nice! Just like that. Archmecha! Welcome to the stream! Nope, nope, nope, nope. Nice! Yeah! go okay and you will have a much better chance of that grip yep oh so close here it is here it is you backhand this perfectly got this nope no no no no I'm taking four I'm sorry I'm like, just grab my ass.
    96:22
    It's not me. Well, that's not the home today. My hands are right here on the screen. I'm holding my beer. I'm actually more worried about a third person. Jazz had me go in there and check the whole house. Oh, God, what? She thought she heard someone open the door. No, no, no. Oh, that makes George wait. Oh, my. What did I do?
    96:45
    You're welcome. What did you do, Joe Beniclip? Is the new lady related? Yes! Well, I came in with Christine. Christine and Obby there are not related. No, not in fact, actually.
    97:02
    Oh, and then he opened, he destroyed his reactor. I want to punch you! I want to punch you! Why do you want to punch me? Because you took my water bottle! No! The only one who's quickly, like, went to the garden. What did I do? Well, that's what happens. If I steal your locks, I get a fourth ball. No, I'm just making that up. That doesn't actually happen. We should just give George, George a reaction. Oh, me. So upset. I'm not even here to help you. George is mean. All right, there we go. Scoop. I like how you, like, bait loose it. Scoop.
    98:05
    Nailed it. Count over one. It's like calling your shot in pool, right? Calling the eight ball, yeah. The other thing I had, you've got hot bumper and... All right, guys. I don't know if you're familiar.
    98:22
    George said, oh, I swore. Yeah, you did. I totally swore. Is that three pull-ups? Is that what that is? All right. One more time. We can try and shat the bed. Right here. We're going to do the thing.
    98:37
    We're going to try it again. Alright. Cool, cool, cool, cool, cool. Alright. That is not mine. Neither is that. None of that is my fear. I put mine in the cycling. I'm the only caring person. Oh, come on. Come on. Come on. No. Come on. Yes, thank you. I mean, you said it again. I'm reading my message. That's six now. Wait, when did I say it again? Did I say it again? Oh! I said it when I read the... that, that was cheap. That was cheap, Diane. I like how you got the potty mouth police over here. Oh, come on! You're... oh, not what is this garbage hit it
    99:59
    nice job definitely not making this one easier i'm gonna go for that multi-ball now and go for the third one all right all right yeah oh come on we're not that is a lot of shots you have to make on the grid i know you can get all those Or that. What is...
    100:24
    Alright, I did the six. Woo! Oh, what is that? Or that? What is that? I'm ball game. If you want to be family friendly, I'll enforce it. Thank you guys.
    100:38
    George makes the pull-ups look so easy. We love pinball. Nope. I couldn't do two when I first started doing pull-ups, and now I'd say I probably could have done one. I probably could have done one more, so that would have been seven max. Come on. You are ready for an extra ball. Look at that. Let's go. Do it. I'm trying. Hold on. No! Oh, I hate you, grid.
    101:02
    And I was about to start. It could be answered. Yeah, you can plunge into it next time. If you can hit that 54% or whatever that is. I hit it twice today on stream, but that's it. I'll hold it. Okay. So yeah, apparently I seem to be like, not playing with people.
    101:20
    When you're by yourself, it's easier, for some reason. No, it's fun. I haven't played PMA so long because you haven't had it accessible. Because it's been in the basement the whole time? Yeah, and we hadn't streamed it in a long time.
    101:32
    No. No! Boo. And why does it keep giving you... I know. Thank you for the lock shots. Bye. Bye, babe. Oh, we are. We can do one last call. Because we're getting useful enough to help you guys, but not useful enough to be on the show.
    102:01
    Three more shots. One more shot. There we go, one more. Got it. So how do you have so many more points when we have similar reactors?
    102:27
    So we keep track of our reactors with the last digit of our score. Additionally, you get a play field multiplier for every ball in play. So when you have four, okay, so you're way ahead of that. So I'm like, okay, so round three, okay.
    102:43
    Yeah, George, can you leave some in there for me? Can you just lock something right now and then drink every drink?
    102:52
    But don't drink without locking it. That's not actually helpful. Okay, okay. I just need to... I should just spell it out.
    103:04
    This game hates me. All right, there we go, there we go. Do not reject. Just give me that shot. Thank you. Thank you. That's my extra ball. That is my mystery and my reactor start.
    103:22
    Glad to see I'm not the only one Jedi McFuffin. Better to make pull-ups instead of eating bugs like my friends wanted. Thank God I was scared. That sounds awful.
    103:37
    And what is that? My oldest keeps screaming. out of the hoop. No point. Okay, by the way, if you can catch the ball like that when it comes out, it has wicked backspin. So if you can time it with like a drop catch, allow it to go back up. Normally at that height it would roll right off the edge, but it has so much backspin that as soon as it hits the rubber, it stops dead. It's great. So just thinking through some of the other fun stuff. I've noticed that's why I've been holding up that flipper when it spits out the scoop because I'm like, yep, just stop that from happening.
    104:12
    Apparently, there's one. Nine. So I need the destroy and the A. I'm going to try and go for the A here.
    104:31
    Let's try that again. That was the D. The hardest shot. There's the A. I have an extra ball. That's fine. We're all fine here. We're totally fine. I mean, I'd rather have Metallica. I'm kind of a Clark Griswold when it comes to family friendly. Play a game. I'll read it. Okay, okay. Oh, we'll have fun. We'll have so much effing fun. We'll move pots of surgery to remove our Judy smile. Did you see someone posted a certain shutdown vote between Jurassic Park and what's the MET? Metallica? Oh, Metallica. Okay, I was wondering. To a Metallica fan page and got 4,000 votes for Metallica and skewed it 75 to 25 for the percentage. Against what? Against Jurassic Park. Oh, man. And then Dice's, I mean, I'd rather have Metallica and Wheel of Pinball. I'd rather have both. Oh, my God. Jurassic Park, I feel like, is a better game than Metallica. Gosh, you made that look so easy! It was going so fast! I know, it's going so fast, we just... Like that! Like this! Show off! Oh, and then it keeps all three. Actually, you used the ball so you could... I preferred uh, throughout the park as well. It was way ahead of Metallica before the shenanigans. Well yeah, because it's not being based off the game, it's being based off the content, right? Right, so...
    106:12
    Not if you hit it like that. How did that work? It wasn't even lit. Oh, okay, now it's the left one. Or you can maybe shoot the right one, I don't know. Oh my god. Yeah, that's a skit. I just didn't hit it as hard.
    106:37
    Is this that soft one? Did you hit it softly? Get up there. It's a much better game, yeah. I haven't actually played the escape part, that new DLC that you... You can type like that. Is it good? Oh, my God. The escape new part is amazing. Yes, absolutely. I haven't played it since I came out.
    107:00
    Didn't they do that right a bit shortly after that? I did. I mean, trade it. It will be back. We will play it here shortly. How long? It should be back in a month.
    107:11
    By the way, how did Father's Day stream go? It was amazing. We won Translite. So much fun. Okay, so Fliptronic won one of the Translites over there. WeLovePinball won a sticker pack.
    107:25
    Congratulations to all of you. I don't remember who all else won, but there was four different winners. Awesome. Yeah, obviously.
    107:49
    One more shot. Nice. Annex the ball again. Okay, so now we've got to work on our multiball. That was bad.
    108:05
    Let me get that back. I do not have an extra ball. But it popped. Do you not have an extra ball? I do not.
    108:14
    That was big. There goes the second. There goes the third. And tilt. Fix the machine so I don't fall. I do have to fix the machine. I'm sorry, guys.
    108:25
    So I thought we'd have time for a co-op game, but it's not looking that way. It's only $11.50, and that was Ball 3.
    108:34
    Hire a game, rescue people, and capture dinos. But it's so dynamic. It is. Yeah, it's not meant to be a carbon copy of the movie. They had limited rights with regards to the license, and they did something really unique. Great job. You got an extra ball. And you plumbed right up there. I did. On purpose. Like I hate it. It's wonderful. Yeah. I know.
    109:01
    So, Dice says theme integration should include more from the theme than a brief music clip. Oh, no. I agree, but they did something amazing, in my opinion. It's like, think of it like fan fiction is what they did with Jurassic Park.
    109:20
    Oh, come on. No. No, nope. I would go for a lock if I was you. So I can reshoot? So that way you can plunge up there. Okay, hold on.
    109:32
    Oh, I... Hold on. Extra ball. Okay, thank you. That's the entire game. Rescue people and capture dinos. Yeah. Gee, Black, I can... Oh, no! I can play. What is that? I just really, really like the... Yeah, you got it. You got it trapped up. Lock and then try another time. Nice, nice. Here you go. Here's the plunge. Power plunge.
    109:56
    A little joy. God, why? No, what is that? So sad. Oh, well. Still my best one, though. Still pretty good. So, co-op it. Last game. All right, last game. Then we've got to roll. All right.
    110:11
    I was first last time, so I'm not first this time. Welcome to the future. I'll go first. I can't. Play it three. uh start it over again maybe he'll we're co-op we're good you can do it apparently I'm the third person merch yes uh love the shirt oh yeah this is the merch by the way big text thank you uh like good fan fiction none of this 50 shades garbage yes oh my god hey okay so uh amazing fan fiction would be Aaron Morgenstern's we're not hold on help me out here Becca Erin Morgenstern The Night Circus I would say I would argue maybe the most beautiful writing the most beautiful fantasy novel that was definitely middle that was terrible I apologize you gotta both say both say you're still going oh come on and that started out as I think Twilight fanfiction and ended up going a different direction and it was Beautiful one shot left. It's the middle one great. I got all of them, but one okay, and there's a ball So either one will work for you
    111:36
    Nice just like that Now you want to shoot this dude. Ball saved. Woo-hoo. Yep. Okay. You can totally backhand that dude. Into there. Okay. Nope. Hey, hey. Or go for the lock. Nope. And then reshoot up at the top. And then shoot up the middle, yep. Yeah, because the lock is easy to lock. I mean, if we were talking over the years with the subject of Jurassic Park, there was JP2 where they captured dinos, right?
    112:08
    Are you saying I'm going? No. I'm out of here. I know. I'm calling this right now. Yeah. Good. That was really awful.
    112:28
    I thought the count was working. Except in pinball. That means nothing. I was going to think the rescue capture was a theme. I was agreeing. I think the rescue capture was a theme of every movie. Of the previous three, it's not that I wanted them.
    112:47
    It's not what I wanted from the English Jurassic Park. Now hit that orbit again. That's it. Yep, perfect. Do it. No, excuse me. No. Show me.
    113:12
    Me overdone. Example, kid, multiball, and Wonka. Ooh, okay. Um, yeah, I'm not a huge fan of... Well, I have to play Wonka again. I wasn't very happy with that game as a whole, and I love the idea of a Wonka-themed pin. I've never actually played the Wonka. I think Dice. You haven't played it over at Pinball Jones? No. My team never had to play it.
    113:42
    Whenever I was competing, no one went to that game. There was a lot of attack from Mark. There was a lot. Right, right. And that's why also there's a few people in here who were questioning whether or not to get attack from Mars. And that's why I say if you're thinking about trying for competitive pinball, I feel like... There we go. Nope.
    114:13
    Nice. Should we wait with the sticker pack until I have enough points for the shirt? I will pay the shipping cost. Should we wait for the sticker pack until I have enough points for the shirt? No, we love pinball. You already won a sticker pack in the drawing, right? Yes. So you're just getting a sticker pack.
    114:36
    So I tried to move the white shot over there. As it rolled over, and if it was lit, it would have given me ten seconds of ball saves. I would have been fed another ball. But it was here, and I only had to flip once. So watch the white shot as it loops around.
    114:52
    But it loops. So if it was here and I really quickly moved it one two three like that But instead I should have just clicked it once and it would have been over there and I can't do that fast
    115:04
    change in my Where are we at? Oh, we're hitting the grid again. We're locking balls over doing yeah. Oh, that's a shot of good
    115:18
    Or that that was terrible. Sorry Oh, and so we love pinball. Yeah, I feel like you already won the sticker. I don't remember, honestly, though, which is why I asked everybody who won to text me what you won. Because I wasn't sure what everybody won. But I feel like you won something on Saturday.
    115:41
    Oh, that was straight down the middle. There was snow. I did not. As I said before, running from Dino's built character, the kids in the first tape, he became the drummer for Queen of Bohemian Rhapsody. Yes, he did. That is so cool, too, because I think until you pointed that out, I did not know that.
    115:57
    Okay, good. You won the sticker pack, which is great because I was just talking with Silver Ball Swag today. I got the two T-shirts sent out. No, no, no. Yeah, it was two T-shirts sent out. And then I've got these two guys over here I've got to send out later this week. And the sticker pack is the final component. And then I think I've got everybody taken care of.
    116:22
    secret skill shot. I should be able to start the multiball. There we go. Two more shots. One more shot.
    117:14
    I'm going to get all those back. Cool. All right. That had less backspin on it than normal. All right. All right, so we've got our next reactor started here.
    117:54
    We got the R. Wow, that was really bad. Were you... No, I'm good. Okay. They're no good. So, catching up on chat.
    118:20
    I want a new in-box Big Lebowski pin, but you seem to keep forgetting that. I'll work on that one, Dice. Let's see here. I need a new microphone, Audio-Technica AT2020 USB for the Yeti X, which you have. No worries, you're up.
    118:37
    That is a really good question. We love pinballs. Oh, we are at Destroy Functions. Don't think I'm the right person. Oh, MPT3K is in. MPT3K knows a lot more about audio than I do I couldn't tell you the benefits or the advantages and disadvantages of both but I feel like the first one that you recommended that Technica AT2020 I feel like that was the one that MPT3K recommended in our maybe the first stream of second string that we did together which is a stream about how to stream pinball And just a running joke with me and George didn't actually happen. Right, yes. Fliptronic has an AT2020 USB and likes it, okay. And MPT3K. I have almost a thousand people curious with me if that were the case. I literally just shot an entire video on audio. I was asking what did I miss here as a joke. Oh, cool. T&K, I'm here almost every time you stream, except when you give away stuff. WTF, rig. T&K, we gave stuff away on a special midday stream on, what day was that? That was Sunday for Father's Day. That was the celebration of 300 streams and 900 followers. Yeah, George. That's awesome. Yeah. And we are already, guys, at 922. so yeah we're getting close to a thousand which is going to be huge because there will definitely be a drinking stream for a thousand nope come on yes just on purpose that emote is ridiculous totally on purpose that happens on purpose just on purpose finally redid my stream starting video no major changes I'm happy getting your first song again you're killing it oh come on look at that reactor number four No! I was hoping to get a trap, sorry. You walked in the way. I apologize. But I can destroy a reactor and also start the next reactor and you can go in. Okay. You got this. Pin stadium. I can actually take my hats off. Yes! No, no, no, no! It's okay, it's okay. It works 100% of the time, 60% of the time. It's a war big. Thank you so much for those tips and welcome to the stream.
    121:10
    Tiki pinball's a mode, right? Yep. No. Oh, no. Oh, no, no, no. Now you can feel my pain. No. Okay, good, good.
    121:22
    No, no, no. No? All right. Try to hit the other one right there. Nope. Oh, it's good. It's good. So close, though. So close.
    121:35
    Really well played. Thank you. Walk the plank, have to talk like a pirate, says CMK. I'm sorry, not CMK. Nice.
    121:55
    It is really nice with that band. Got it. Got this. Destroy all the things. Oh, you have left. It's that one. Yes. Nice.
    122:28
    Heck yeah. Three balls. Nice. Oh my gosh, only too much left. Nice, you got this. Woo! Oh, what? Just totally perfect. Nice. Nice! Oh, no, I walked the plank, too.
    123:13
    We were there at the fifth. All right. Always good seeing you as well, Penn Stadium. And, you guys, that is it for tonight. My name is George. This stream is Don't Panic, Live. We stream Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday. We are part of the Pinball Network. and a whole bunch of really fun streamers who just like to create awesome content. Also, there's podcasts, there's YouTube videos, there's all kinds of good stuff. And with me tonight, I had Avi and Christine. You guys are amazing. Thank you so much for hanging out. So fun. Yes. And you guys have a good one. I'll be back on Thursday. There's a bunch of TPN-related streaming and content coming out Wednesday. Wednesday, I think, is the busy day of the week where there is content continuously from, like, I think 2 o'clock in the afternoon through after midnight, and that's all in Mountain Time. So you guys have a good one. Hope to see you again soon, and let's find somebody to pass all of these good vibes off to on a raid. Hold on just a minute, y'all. Anything on that bot?
    124:19
    We should never forget that. Uh, dude, why are you still talking? I'm simply trying to highlight the lesson we all learned. No, no, no, can you hear that, man? Ruby's wrapping up. I'm trying to get out of here, But I need to say my important takeaway message from this experience. You know, something kids can talk to their parents about on the drive home.
    124:38
    I am sorry to say, Robin, but this is not that type of movie. Who's a critic? Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Kids, ask your parents where babies come from.
    124:54
    Looks like laser is live. Y'all hold on here just a minute. You're still here? It's over. Go home. Go.
    125:29
    Thank you.
