Thank you. Hello anyone out there, this is Carl just getting things set up, just doing the last minute tweaks.
1:37
Hang tight, be on soon. Still learning this game myself, so I don't... I know, I've played a lot of modes, it's funny, there's so many modes on this game that occasionally I'll run into one and it's like, have I played it before? I have no idea. I have a couple with good scoring, I'll see if I can cover those. One with really good scoring. I'm getting over 100,000. Of course, I'm sure once Keith sees this, he'll, or he probably already knows about it, but he'll reduce his scoring on it.
2:39
It's a large amount compared to everything else I've gotten over. Title says, Cosmere Stream 2016. That's not good. Thanks, KSL.
2:48
Let's see if I can fix that. Can I fix it while I'm live, or do I have to kill the broadcast and change it? Let's see.
2:57
Let's see if I can fix that. There we go. That's fixed. Thank you, Taylor Salad. It's been a while since I've done this. I really wish I had someone else here to play with me so we could talk over things. So if anyone has any questions about this, feel free to hit the chat. I've got the chat window open, big monitor next to my game. See what I can do. Let's see, let's go to the scene, what's that? Where is that? Hello! Hello.

  • There's a known bug where the match animation triggers knocker during game-over even with match disabled

    medium confidence · Kyle: 'I have my match off and every time I start a game during the game over animation I get a match, the knocker goes off... I think that's a bug'

    technology_signal: Use of secondary display (book/LCD screen via HDMI splitter) for enhanced streaming presentation indicates modern multimedia integration in pinball content creation

    medium · Kyle: 'The main monitor feeds off of a DVI connection normally. I've switched those cables out for DVI to HDMI. And I have an HDMI splitter inside the game'

    • 4:20
    And that's probably all you see of me. You want to see a book. Alright. I don't know if I'm going to make this a tutorial or just play the game or... What do you want to see?
    4:33
    What do you want to know? Well, well, well. I am, um... Look who it is. Four skill shots, if you don't know. You've got the inlays. That's the one that's lit right now. Strobbing. As it takes, sir. Oops, I'll get you nowhere. And let me know how the audio is. I've turned the game up pretty loud, so hopefully it's coming through while you can still hear me talk.
    4:57
    Let's go for this one, since it's lit and ready to go. To get this, I can have a plunge specifically, and I'll try and short plunge it to a flipper.
    5:07
    And then alley pass to the warg or the spider, if I can. One other thing about this game, I've taken the post out. It's gone. No sender post. this guy outlaying raised all the way up this one's all the way down on this side um and but I think that's it I mean I this is at I think seven and a half degrees right around there it was when I first got it was I had it six and a half and I had some very long games I mean so many games hey Bungo uh no wisdom across this time The wisdom of it isn't in it yet. So, right, no battle of five armies yet. We've only got to enter the fire and barrel escape on this one. Um, and with how I have it set up, it's playing very fast. Pretty difficult, um, since I've changed it around. I've only gotten to those two. I haven't gotten back into the fire before, with my new setup the last week or so. This is, oh boy, getting this set up was fun.
    6:17
    Yeah, the main monitor feeds off of a DVI connection normally. I've switched those cables out for DVI to HDMI. And I have an HDMI splitter in the game that's feeding out to my computer. Then the book LCD, you know, this one, as you see on the screen, is in the upper left. and it's not there because I can't find a way to duplicate that just yet. I'll get it working at some point.
    6:44
    But I wanted to go with this. All right, let's see if I can get this to go. It's the most valuable I've seen, the Warhammer Spider.
    6:52
    Let's go. No balls saved. It takes two to get you nowhere. Of course, yeah. Okay. And it's going to go.
    7:05
    I also have Titan. I switched all the rubbers out for the transition of Titan. And I did the flipper rings with the Titans too. I actually think it makes the game harder.
    7:23
    There's less bounce and the spin on the ball can throw up pretty well. All right. First thing I'm liking to do is flight the boats. So I have to get all three L targets, all five dwarf targets, all three man targets. You've also got Rattagast, Gandalf, and Bilbo. That will complete the, at the top of the screen, the shoot character or spell race to qualify my other two seeds. I'll complete all six and once you get all six without starting a mode, it'll light an extra ball. So let's see if we can do that.
    7:57
    I'm not going to try to activate any modes. I'm just going to get everything down, get the extra ball.
    8:10
    And it's pretty risky, though. These side-to-side targets are pretty dangerous. All right. Got my hand on the lucky bounce. All right. You'll see I also have the mode lock lid, which is F-E spell lock. And if you don't take your lock, I can lock a ball for a mode. So any mode becomes a multiple. I'll shoot the right floor hopefully. And my first mode box.
    8:44
    I care not about ever. I'm fighting all the characters. Not bad. I'll get him again. I don't care about him right now. I really want the health targets. Just because I'm greedy.
    8:59
    I still need to get Radagast, I need the E and O and the A and Dwarf. That will light all of the modes available to the game. And Mr. Radagast got that. That's why they're a great bit. Alright, so now I need E and L and Radagast. Radagast, you can backhand from the right, generally. And not that time. And that's it. And I'm being greedy right now trying to get this extra ball. This isn't what I would recommend doing. I'm just trying to show all the features off here.
    9:55
    Alright. Let's go for the lock, because I want to get those mode locks. What I'm trying to do right here is get to the mode called Resurgence of Starum. It's the... you see the current mode has a Thorin Oakenshield lit. It's one column to the left and up at the top. The one that's the... that is Thorin. I find that's the highest scoring mode, and I'll show you why if I can. Alright, E and L right against. Missed. Big spot for a pinball for the host. And I'm just not going to get that except if I had bounced it. Alright. It is possible to take a very tight shot directly from the flipper. Maybe I can get out the Pudge with the skill set. Stop the move, and we'll try. And I use that upper flipper a lot to deflect the ball. It's very useful. Uh, mode lock lit again. I always like collecting those, but I want the Rattagas Hole still. Since I'm taking the 3D, of course I miss it. And I got the E there, you know. I have the Super Spinner there. I'm getting the Erebor. I got the Erebor. The Super Spinner can wait quite a bit. Basically, Spinner advances the value, and then the Center Ball collects the Captain Ball. Throw it. Ahhh!
    11:43
    Not bad. Alright, let's back in. Let's do it again, let's try the same thing. Really want to...maybe I won't go for the extra ball. And that's a bug I think. I have my match off and every time I start a game during the game over animation I get a match, the knocker goes off. Alright, let's try again. Cover locks, let's go for that mode that's worth a lot of points. points even before we get to the multi ball. I want to start the mode just to make sure I get in that mode and start the multi ball. I'll forget about the extra ball. So the only person I need to collect to start that mode is Ganon. That will be in his mode at the top. Alright, all four. That's the massive speed. 12,000. And like I said, I've got this pretty nasty right now. Hey, Zach, how's it going?
    12:49
    Alright. Sucks so much here. Eh, I'll let that rain. Alright, that lights Bilbo's mode I don't care about Bilbo's mode right now
    13:19
    Stand up All right. Mode lock. Killing. I'll get him at some point. Don't care about him right now. And let's go back to the trouble.
    14:00
    Alright, next mode block. I really want to get all three in the surface mode. I'm living dangerously going for these block targets right now.
    14:20
    Alright, that's the third lock. So I could shoot the ramp twice right now for smog to start smog multiple. But, I care not about that right now. Green. And...
    14:37
    Two more. Parasite. Alright, two more. I need the O and the C to light the mode lock. Right now I do have the lock on smog, like I said. But I'm ignoring that right now.
    14:52
    Alright, oh that's an air ball. Alright, oh that's what's happening. I can actually lock a ball, that would be cool.
    15:05
    Really I would think so now. Alright, let's lock the third ball. I might get the air ball pretty soon too. Yeah, I'm really close. You can see in the upper right hand portion of the screen.
    15:18
    Airboards, the lonely mountain is sitting right there ready to go. So one more spin and I'll get to that. That's good points. I want to trap up here. I don't want the goblin. I don't want to do a backstab. So I don't want to hit the ring button yet. So now the mode I want is lit. I'm going to hit the ring button, postpone the lock. Do the mode. I'll be in a four ball mode here. So left ramp scores four. I thought it was a collection point, but right now it's basically a fringe beat.
    15:51
    Every song I'm making, every twist is adding to the value. You can see it on the book house. I'm in Super Spinner now, and I've got two balls. But really I do want to start my full set back. And now we're going to have balls running at the same time. This is a very valuable mode.
    16:15
    and my stem and of course that's our beach investing the barricade Gonna lose my load here Alright, yeah I got him, cool I can't see my book screen because it's on my computer, but it should be a decent value right now. I think I was talking only about the mode, but... Oh, did I... Let's go there.
    17:09
    And I got four. Alright, register mode. How much is that? How about 176,000 for that mode? Wow! That's my best yet. So, if I hit these red shots, I do a Tachymote, and I get it back in my bag! 176,000! Which is incredible on this game. That's huge, I think. Looks like I've got another extra ball in too, even though I've already collected one. I just want to be going for these red trucks and do my treasure hunt. Really, I don't... I mean, that's it. Oh yeah. Alright, we're going to do this. Alright. gah!
    18:10
    all right! into the fire! The future of the pile. Top kick to the tree. That came fast. Left hand. The grants are surprisingly hard to hit with all these balls. It's amazing. There's still more back in the game. Alright, there we go. Hit drop target. Wait for the water to hit the water.
    18:52
    Three drops. Alright, I got jump up now. Alright. Three more works. I'm not going to wait. I'm not going to be patient here. I should be, but I won't be. Alright. Now if I finish this stage, I'll actually get a matter ball. Which is, uh, I just need... Send a target. Alright. Alright, that's not coming back. There's no ball thing. Oh, there is! Alright, this mug... Alright, this mode, this stage is just being patient. Get a beast, wave around the boss back up.
    20:17
    And that's it for now. Alright, not too bad so far. Alright, what should we do now? Let's see, so we're back at the beginning. We have to do all five tasks to run some next wizard mode, which is barrel escape. So I need to do smog multiple, I need to get the Erebor, looks like I'm pretty close right now. Collect all 13 dwarves, do Beast Frenzy again, and complete a mode. Let's see, this one is Mirkwood. This one's a fairly difficult mode. Let's play it. Please leave the room.
    21:02
    Press the ring button. Go. Alright, so this is... Don't shoot the red shots. Ahhh. I can shoot a light. This is where it's fun, because the shot I need is right next to the red shot. And the spinner is so easy to just hit. Alright. Let's get him.
    21:36
    Chip ramps avoid drop targets. Avoid drop targets. Don't hit drop targets. Backhand to get more time. I always like to cap off faster. Shoot the rats. Shoot the rats. And high five, Aurora. I don't want to see you. No way. No way. Alright, so you can see the scoring in this mode is nothing like what that other mode is. Oh, no, no! Almost won't watch. Job, you're in here. I can see my game's doing it too. I did not want to do that because now I cannot do a mode level. I really want to save those blocks to get the mode level. But I completed the mode with that shot. So that's good. Oh, I hit the camera.
    22:48
    Let's move this back. Yeah. All right. Let's see. The glass is not off. The game came with a glass. So, yeah, it's fantastic. It really helps. I need to get a sheet of standard size so I can do my other games, because it makes so much of a difference.
    23:06
    All right. So I have no mode flip. I've done three modes. I have Gandalf flip. You can see in the top section. But I played all three of his modes, so I have to shoot another character. I shoot the L targets, the man targets, the four targets. Something else the light locks. So let's go for Bill.
    23:27
    Oh, no. And I'll go for that extra ball switch. Oh, no, oh, no, oh, no, oh, no. Okay. All right, let's see. What mode is the best? I have to look away. This is a fun mode. But I'd really like to bring in... I'd like it to be a multi-mode. Because I want to complete it. Oh wait, no, I have a multi-mode. What am I talking about? Forget the modes. Let's get the barrel escape. This is a cancel.
    24:06
    Alright. Again, use that pass. Start super spinner and drain down. Alright. Decent ball, too, there.
    24:26
    Let's go for the... Let's go. I'm going to mix them all in a little bit. See if I can get him. Let's see if I can get back in that shot. Bingo! Oh, that's right. It's too far from fair here. I'm going to get right against that one. Alright, let's get the ball.
    25:18
    Extra game! Oh, to get my mode lock. You can also use that for a... Oh, there we go. You can also use the mode locks and see if it's my motor ball. It would be an adder ball for you.
    25:47
    Alright, let's block the ball, let's get this map again, see what we can do there. Alright, name of all right there. Hello folks. Good morning. Yeah, it's all right, we're coming. Oh boy, oh boy, I think. Yeah, saw that one coming. Oh boy, oh boy, I think... Am I out of warnings? I think I might be. Um, that's still, yes, I'm feeding the Bat-Glass and the book both directly into the computer. It wasn't so easy on this game. Come here, you! Alright, Smog is left. Grab the spider. Lucky bounce there. Let's, uh, let's get a multiple here. T-Wingy. I don't know how far I got into Smog, because I wouldn't make a template to it. How far we get?
    27:00
    Mountable! Alright, so I'm going to shoot with six major shots this time. I've actually got mode lock lit right now.
    27:15
    I really don't want to start... I really don't want to start beat printing because it's so hard to beat the model that you're in.
    27:25
    Where do I get a football? Alright, there's a... Torque, right? Am I starting a mode right now? I don't have X-Balls. Here we go. Go to mode. You need a base. Two frame ramps.
    27:51
    I wrote that. That was a mowed shot there. Let's see, I want to go further on the smog, so go down beast. Go down. Alright, there's my mode. Alright, I'm going to go to the base.
    28:25
    So, could the jackpot as worth... 27? Oh, no. Not worth it. So, I still need a left ramp, left orb, and it looks like the loop, the left loop is worth 5x, 5x jackpot. Pretty good points. Of course, 5 is always in the way. Ah! I hate that.
    28:49
    Beast friends you, Cooper. Let's just do that. Alright, well we got Barrel Escape right now. So we have...
    29:08
    We have to beat Barrel Escape, right? I don't know, I just can't make it through it. For whatever reason. for whatever reason. So, I'm going to hit the bumper. You can see the objectives on the screen there.
    29:29
    Alright, Elf target. They get the two. Elf from the left side of the game. I get it, you got it. Alright.
    29:40
    Got it, didn't I? This is where I want to go. Get away, raise your org, and then get going. Alright, slow down here.
    29:52
    Oh, that was horrible. Sorry. Oh, that was horrible. Oh, that was pitiful. Sorry about that. All right, the contract is the current mode lids. But I have mode lock lids, so let me get the mode lock. And that went perfectly.
    30:18
    Try this again. Perfect. Here we go. Alright, now the beasts get a little harder to bring up. I'll have to shoot them now when I have them ready. Alright, that was good. I might take that, that was a tough one. Alright, so you see my in-lanes are no longer lighting the beasts. So after two beast multiballs, I now have to shoot a ramp to light the warg and spider, the one on the outside, and the orbits to light the orc and goblin. Alright, let's play this mode. Oh, I've changed the mode. We're on Rag-Ass the Brown. I don't remember it, so let's play it.
    31:05
    Oh, back to Spider-Man. Oh, I got it. I was holding that ball up, the flip-flop. Hold the flip-flop when I kick out the ball from the windlass.
    31:24
    I win now, and that's the mode. So since I'm in the multiple, now I'm in treasure mode. And then you get the other one, which is, get the red truck and you get the moat. Points again.
    31:48
    Perfect. Off you go for... what is it? Blasting drone targets for an extra ball. And really, I only have the dwarves on the left there. We don't want to miss our ball, do we? Let's go for a try. I'm just going to fix this one. You guys can do it.
    32:21
    Sure, why not? Oh yeah That one way of getting those letters Letters Grave letters Woo! All right. Yet another extra ball in.
    33:03
    I hit it twice. Once on the... How can the... Wow. I'm amazed that they're not still playing. Nice! Oh no! And here's the Beast Rinsing! Perfect for it! And I have Mud Block there, so again I want to get that Mud Block in my hand. And there's the X-Ball! Alright, we have Super Spinner here.
    34:19
    What did I get for it? Uh, how do you find the... Uh, what did I get for that? I didn't see it. Alright. Put the blinking lights into the right end lane. That means the blinking lights on here mean your ball save is available on your right out wing.
    34:53
    Alright, mode lock. Let's get mode lock. Let's see. I've completed everything but smog multi-ball. You can see in the upper left, that's the only of the crystals of part of the Arkham Sun, I believe, or whatever it is, that is unlinked.
    35:08
    Let's go on the mode lock. Alright, so we want to get this mount. I don't want to start the mode before starting this multiball. Like I said before, it will give me an add a ball now that I have a mode ball locked. So I want L-O-C-K. Which is dangerous at first. Which is dangerous at first? Alright, no, no, no, no. No, no, no, no. That's, okay, one more. That's one.
    36:08
    I didn't get it. Now there's the option to backstab a beast, and I haven't found out why I would want to.
    36:25
    I don't see it getting that many extra points yet, unless it's just not programmed in. Alright. I need that seed! I don't want to miss the speed. There we go. And I also got my Super Edge running, which is an award. That's double play scoring right now. It's an award on the captive ball after 15 or 25 hits. I can't remember exactly. It would have been on the screen then. Okay. It would have been on the screen then.
    37:01
    Okay. Let's see if we can get Smog. How do you pronounce it? Again, I have an adder ball with my moat, right? Oh, I got it. Moat ball. All right. Alright, I'm going to start the boat now, just so I can sit down. Oh, that's bad with me! But I have my ball pit right there. Start the boat and that'll give me more balls. I'll get my super early. Alright, I'm on my super. So now, shoot the right target, shoot the dwarf target, and then you can start the boat. Torque target? Don't make me do this. Oh, it's horrible. Horrible.
    37:54
    Sorry. Yet again, sorry. Alright. Well, I got into the fire wood again, but... ...so let's just go for it.
    38:04
    And into the fire! Alright, let's finish this this time. Alright! Unlikely, but now the case is closed.
    38:15
    I'll take to the tree! I'm still in the mode right now. Oh, dear! Time! Get to the tree! Nope, I'm right. Yeah, I lived on my balls for a pretty long time. Alright, I'll get back to this.
    38:48
    Alright, left hand for super. Not quite. It's a little hard to get after a while, I know, some of the states. There we go. Alright. Throw targets, raise the war. Someone That's a picture.
    39:28
    rented Alright. Oh! I don't know what the... Oh! Augh! Alright. I'm not playing very well. Sorry. I'm too easy. I'm getting my mode locked.
    39:59
    Did I get it? It's stuck up there. Oh, there it goes. Alright, Orc Embo. I'm assuming this is going to be hit the Orc in the Orc. Let's try it. Double Marjorie. Could be very good.
    40:31
    Because all the points are here to go to treasure hunt. Treasure hunt can be very valuable. There we go. Alright, where am I trying to go? I can't see my... Shoot, they're chopped. Oh yeah. Alright, that's my add-on.
    40:49
    You know what? I'm going to have to go back. Go to the orbs. More time here. Get the shot. Hit the floor.
    41:23
    Alright, let's do it. Man targets. They've got the ball. Let's do it. Orbit. Got the ball. Come on, Orbit.
    41:55
    Wow. I'm gonna do this. Alright, what was my trigger on? 8,000? I mean, I got 8,000 for that. All that work compared to that first mode you saw where it was a massive amount of points. Alright, so I still haven't completed the mode. Might as well keep playing for one.
    42:20
    And got that. Hey, where's my word? Did I hit that? Alright. Keep going! Oh, this is a... this is a tough one.
    42:38
    I have to shoot the left ramp to lower the orb. Now he goes down and I have to shoot that ramp before he pops back up. Ah, I'm in barely.
    43:06
    Alright, same thing here. I can also do the left orbit to lower the war. Just a little bit. That's all.
    43:22
    Any questions? All right. Let me get a breather here. Any questions for anybody? Yeah, that's right. I'll be looking. Everything going okay?
    43:52
    Let me get that out of the way. I would go for the lock skill shot. All right. Let's get going. All right. I'm in the Kong track, I believe that mode is.
    44:28
    Shoot the captain ball, or the... Or the left ball. You can hit the captain ball. Up or click it. I also started, uh... Dwarf, but being frenzy again.
    44:43
    Alright, now I want to shoot the target for... The yellow target behind... The truck. Oh, that was horrible.
    44:55
    Alright, I wanted to shoot the targets behind the yellow target. Three of them. Three sets, and that would complete the mode.
    45:04
    Here is another ball. Alright, I think that's the last extra, too. Probably a good thing. Alright, mode lit. I have no... Wind Lance! Okay, so it's going to... I think it locks the ball here. I shoot the ramp, hits the ball there, and I hit the target. I think.
    45:25
    Flashback. I got it! Oh! It's okay. All right, last ball here. All right. I'll be honest, during this motorboat, there's nothing I'm really trying for. I'm just trying to get the ball to slide and hit the hook. Unless they're flashing like that, I'm trying to get the motor off. I came just at the right time. I'm going to do a small phase.
    46:50
    Whatever I do, I do not want to keep that ramp. Uh, oh, okay. Alright, so I've got my multi-ball there, but I'll just not let those go. I don't want to, I didn't want to get it during, uh, beast printing.
    47:07
    Alright, I'm going to try and shoot the lock, the mode lock. That way I have a add a ball. Direct smile. And hopefully we can finish the round.
    47:19
    Alright, ramp shot. Alright, those targets, followed by that last target there. Alright, I really want to start close. Oh, I don't have any most lit. See, so it gets harder and harder to start close. Oh, I know I do have both of them, but this is the end of the multiple here. Alright, this is the... I have to hit it here.
    48:02
    Trying to collect my thoughts here. Alright, now I'm going to get a bow. Shoot target. Now, this is the end of... I'm going to shoot the right ramp, which will load the wind lance, and then that goes one time into a single target. That's um... Oh, I got past the orc. That was a big mistake here.
    48:32
    Because I want that orc down, so I'm just going to let that time out. Sorry, sorry, Pete. Okay, he's down. Well, he might not be down for good. So right man is going to shoot, load the wind lance, kick it up to my upper right foot, and I've hit one of the yellow targets by Smough to kill him. I'm aware. And this is a very good goal with those. And if you miss, you have to hit those targets on the right hand side, hit the man targets, to relight it. Okay, that's fine. All right, maybe I can shoot this one. Not this one. Not supposed to use that... Oh. Oh well. Not bad. I think this is the standard. I don't know if this is the standard. I think this is the standard. Maybe I can shoot this. Not this time. I'm not supposed to use that. Ohhhhh.
    49:30
    Oh well. That's that. I think this is the same as the first one. Yeah. Multi-ball mode again. One ball, plus one.
    49:50
    I'm not really paying attention to what I need still. What do I need for my next mini wizard mode? Let's see if I can get a breather here. Alright, what do I need still? I need airborne which I'm really close to and I need to complete a mode. Easy one to complete is the one ring. It's where Bill was holding the ring. So I wish that the left ramp would change the mode to that. Even though I'll waste my two ball, um, multi-ball here. Ah, let's not do that actually. Let's play a mode. I don't want to waste it.
    50:41
    Alright. Shoot the targets. Shoot the bag in. Drop the target. Alright, that looks like SuperSkin right there. Jump back in. Oh, that was wrong. I think I'm trying to shoot back in to complete the mode. Drop targets give me points. Back in, get back in the bumper. And I'm right back in. Alright. I'm still in the... I don't really want to play it, but...
    51:33
    How much time is left? I haven't seen... Alright, let's see what we can do. I'm going to have to scoot back in.
    52:09
    Alright, I did not finish that mode. So I still need a mode to complete. I'm in Super Spinner, 18,000 if I shoot the middle target. Let's see, I want the Bilbo One Ring mode, so I'm going to shoot the right ramp. That's Bilbo's ramp. I should like the mode his. Kind of pause and see what mode I'm in. Spider, I don't want that. I want the ring, because that's easy. And that's not going to hit it. That's a way to drain. Oh, that's not going Oh, that's not gonna happen. Nope. Fuck you. Ow.
    52:47
    Oh boy. I tell ya, it's a marathon. This game is a definite marathon. What should I put? You've got your ears covered. Uh... I was just pretty high on the mission on my own.
    53:16
    Give me a minute to cool down and I'll be back. Again, No rest, huh? Gosh. It's getting pretty hot in here.
    54:14
    So, yeah, I think really that's most of the game right there as it stands right now. I mean, I'm trying to think what else is in this that I didn't hit. I mean, all the modes, of course, all the various modes that we didn't play. I have yet to go through all the modes in one game. I had one game where I had three left, I think, but like I said, if I said earlier in the stream, it was before I took the center post out and removed or moved the
    54:44
    moved out lanes. I've been trying to think how to do this in tournaments. And I think you're gonna have to put lightning flippers on this and take the post out. I can't think of anything else.
    55:00
    Alright, one more game. Unless it's a long one. I mean, unless it's a short game. I have short games sometimes.
    55:09
    Anything in particular anybody wants to see? Or anything I should try to do that you're curious about? Like I said, I was curious before I got out about the backstabs. And I don't see any benefits getting the backstabs. The backstab is when you have the beast up, you hit the ring button, and then you want to hit the beast from behind. So if it's the orc or the goblin, you'll have to shoot the ramp, and the ramp will do the U-turn and hit the back of the beast.
    55:43
    But maybe that's coming later. Keith, I have no idea. All right, let's go again. You want to play? No? Okay.
    55:54
    My son's in here. He loves this game. Some may imagine a noble person is a man of the sea. Alright, what skill shot? What skill shot should we go for? Let's just begin. Let's try for this again.
    56:18
    Okay, I can go away. Alright, let's see if I can alley-pass this. No. Ah, try again. This might be boring.
    56:39
    Well, I did it, because at the wrong time. I'm going to try to get Maxstab. Let's see if we can get it. Ah, sorry, he's been maxed out. So what was the benefit of that? I have... no idea.
    57:03
    The question about the touch target and the right outline. I believe it's for the add a ball save, but I don't know if it's implemented yet, because it seems once you touch the right outline switch, it takes care of it. It's the VR target, and there is a VR animation, I believe. Alright, let's see if we can get that to my favorite mode up to insane value again. A little bit of 179,000 last play.
    57:34
    I'm going to go for that now. Maybe I should turn extra balls off. How about that? That runs. Should I restart the game with extra balls off and see how the game plays without them? Or do you just want to see the whole thing?
    57:50
    There are also bumper awards when you um, when you, ah now I didn't make it all the way I get my sneak lock. Sneak in.
    58:21
    Very valuable. Okay, we'll bring this to a close. Hold on, hold on, hold on. Shut up. I'm just gonna turn you to the lanterns. No! Nice, uh... Sling drain. Come on, Paul.
    58:50
    Ah, that was good. Alright. Spider, spider. Argh! Fucking a snuffer! I think the game is on extra-easy already. Alright, let's try this again. I'm never going to get that again, am I? Alright, this is the... I like the bug, but it's hard to pick. One drop is the right answer to the riddle. Come on back.
    59:49
    One more time. Then you make a stand. That's the answer to the throw right there, the college hoop. Power 2
    60:24
    Super spinner More time Deuce, King, or, or dead. Ah, I got the right answer! Ah, I got lucky again on that. Alright, next set.
    60:57
    Another orbit. Oh wow, let's have time. I can't get more time. What is it? I can't see. Ah, the hole. Forget the spider, get the hole. Get the hole! Aaaaaaah! Super stupid. I'll get this one, let's see. The full plan is basically on the... Oh, it wasn't!
    61:51
    Once you play a mode, you cannot restart it, so it's done. Here's that super easy mode I was talking about. The One Ring. So I'm going to postpone. The mode is lit. Hit the ramp. All I have to do is hit the right ramp. The mode is lit, shoot the ramp.
    62:13
    All I have to do is shoot the right ramp. Yeah, that's how you shoot the chute. I hope my value goes to nothing.
    63:00
    See you later. Monkey Ball! Robot Hits Giant Punch Robot Turbine Corpets which are also Sexy Pops Giant Punch Go down, go down, go down, go down I'm going to try to hold the blade and get it going. One more time. Let's see if you can't get it off. Oh, yeah.
    64:11
    Four, three, two, one. Back. Up. Down. Hit. Oh, he's right in front of me, in front of me.
    64:51
    Another super trigger. Oh there it is Oh my goodness Here it at those succ oh that's not the job there it is I'm coming, I'm coming. And into the fire! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! I've picked a machine! And... I've got a machine! I know I couldn't hit 15. We gotta save that. I don't understand why I got to come back on it so soon. Come on, you need to ball on the right, Clipper. There you go. Alright, here's the line. Get it up there. Here's the line. Get it up there. Come on, buddy. Here's the line. Get the line. The line's right there.
    66:46
    Come on, I know you're hiding there. There you go. Come on! How dumb to do. What? Oh, you don't have a bomb. Happy to dodge that. Oh, hold on, I mean, alright, camera's getting moved a little bit, we gotta do a new player here. Camera's getting a little blue a little bit. We got a new player here.
    68:11
    How's that? Is that good? Alright, we'll run through this. I think we'll... Okay. I get a break! No any requests from anybody.
    68:35
    I said you were the last. You got it man. It does not have no hold and we clippers. At least not yet. We know this is not finished yet. I don't know what's still left to come apart from Battle of the Five Armies and the final wizard mode. Only Keith and Teen would. Yeah, you're watching, aren't you?
    69:09
    Oh! Crazy! See, you can play short! Keep going. Oh, that's my favorite mode right now. Researching the fog.
    69:40
    Played out with a big locomotive. 190 some odd thousand. Whatever it was. That's okay. Oh yeah, there's that bug. Well, well, well. Look who it is.
    70:14
    Oh yeah, I'm sorry. Come on, over hungry. Yeah, I got the Over the Rainbow a couple times for that craft. That craft was completely my fault. No fault of the game. I believe is what happens on that game is if you pull the video cable in the middle of the game it crashes the game it crashes the OS so it must have slipped out just the right time I jumped probably when I got there because I had to get kind of excited and it must have just wiggled out just enough to crash the game so unfortunate but yeah I've got I have another video on YouTube of the game, but it was my first or second time getting there and I didn't know what to do. I have a better idea of how to score well, and that's how I got the 11 plus million on my giant Oz game.
    71:30
    Fireball! This, uh, one of the additions to this game has a, uh, like that we got, Hit the blue target.
    72:01
    There you go! Third ball, it looks like you're at under 20,000 points. It gives you a pretty small amount.
    72:13
    And I think 20,000 is the cutoff. I'm pretty sure. And I have not tested it to see if it's a tournament motor on.
    72:22
    Ohhhhhhh! Verdict. Don't hit the button and it won't pop. You want to go again? Now do it. There you go. Verdict on the Hobbit. My honest opinion when I first got the game I was really worried because I had games that were lasting an hour and a half to two hours which is crazy. No game should last that long. But after I, like I said, remove the post, put the outlays to their most open, you know, this is not fact, but I can see them having a good life now, especially once the software has a bit more in it. It's one of those things, you don't have to play the same modes every game. Like I said, there are modes I cannot remember playing. There's so many of them. And they're all different. Every single one of them, you do something different. It's amazing the variety that has been programmed in to fight the shot layout. I love the drop. I really love the drop, by the way. Those modes when they're going up and down, there's a mode where, um, I don't even know what it's called, but Smog kind of shoots fire across the plate and the drops go up and down with the fire. It's really cool. You hear the . You having fun? He like watches himself, don't you? Oh, it's too high.
    74:18
    And also, when I got my game, I had an issue with my RAM. It was welded improperly, and I think... 75% of the shots up the left side of the GANBOB side would reject. It would go up to the top to the intersection point and it would hit the metal in the back. And it drove me nuts. So I finally took a video and then I had the temperatures jacked. They sent me a replacement ramp, so I just put it in this week. I've been waiting to do this until I had a good round. My son never competes in pinball events. He really hasn't... You haven't really liked pinball until this game, or Ironman. You started playing Ironman and you liked this game a lot. He's very shy. Kind of like me. So he's in the fun stage and I feel a little bad because all my games are set up. I hate you, Lord.
    75:27
    All my games are set up fairly difficult, and so if he wants to play, he has to play hard games. I guess when he goes to these games, it should be a good time. Okay, hit it at the right time, on the blue. Good job!
    75:45
    Best time that you can play a game. He's six years old. That's a big hoopsaw! What I find funny is how he's picked up a lot of the flippers. He only comes back with a haul.
    76:03
    He watches me play, doesn't he? All done? Is that all? One more? Do you want to play it again? No, we don't want to look at you playing it again. We know better than that.
    76:24
    Alright, this is the last one for you, okay? One... Well... Yeah, long term on this, I have a Lord of the Rings, and it has lightning flippers on it permanently. I'll never take them off.
    76:50
    And I may do the same with this. See how it plays. Maybe once the code is finished, we're close to finish.
    77:02
    I did the same thing with my arms, too. I moved the... Well, I didn't just move the legs. They were factory pretty high. I took out the center post.
    77:12
    No reason to have a center post on either of the games. Has the audio been okay? I feel like I had to scream over the game practically, but I know when I was testing it was really hard to hear the game. One of the other things I wanted to do was try to get the direct audio seen, but I don't know how to do it without I'm having a headset microphone, because it's going to pick up, my regular mic is going to pick up the audio, and it's going to double up, so they won't be the same exactly, you'll hear a echo.
    78:29
    Good, good, thanks. Thank you. You're almost there. Yeah. How are ya? You're not even holding the ball there. I'm not even holding it. Oh. I'm just flying down the line.
    79:25
    I've got that one. Get the ball away, oh! He's not so close to getting into the fire. On his own. Jack! Go! Hmm.
    79:48
    It's not quite that super-easy thing. No. Jackpot! No, no. good them is The long Jackpot! All right. We got a game.
    82:16
    All right. This is a fresh new game. All right. I love how they just have it. Ooh, did you get a lock? Nice!
    83:00
    Oh. You want to go one more? Really? Deanna, do you want? Alright, I gotta jump this thing. I'll wait for you. So anything anyone wants to see... Oh yeah, the drop targets are just fantastic on this. I mean, everyone has a tone up and down coil. It's just phenomenal.
    83:51
    All right. Give me a break. I'm just going to go get something to drink, and then we'll continue shortly. Very shortly. Maybe I should let the book screen. The book screen's running up a lot. It's got the nice little credit sequence for everyone that's worked on the game. Maybe we'll let it run and see. We're not going to play yet. We're going to do it. Small break.
    84:22
    Want any more crackers or anything? The 176,000 treasure hunt. Yeah, sure, I'll try to get there. That's the... What are we talking about here? That's a Gandalf mode. That's the resurgence of Sauron. It's, um, I need the screen. What do you do in the office? Um, basically I try to stack all my mode locks. So I have three mode locks. I want those. Ready to go. Because it's really a frenzy. So all the switches get added value. The left ramp collects the value. And I think it's five or six total left ramps until you finish the mode. Regardless, get those balls going. hit the spinners, hit the pop bumpers, anything. You know, it's a frenzy. Just add the value and then start collecting on that left ramp.
    86:04
    And then as long as you're still in the multi-ball at the end of the mode, whether you complete the mode or not, you're in treasure hunt, which is the mode points. And, you know, it's just massive amounts of points.
    86:16
    I expect either the other modes will come up or that mode is going to be completely nerfed. because it's the only mode I've found that can get that high. Other modes I've gotten to 20,000 or 30,000. Some of them are, you know, five or six.
    86:36
    But that one being so easy to start, being that you only need Gandalf to light it, it would be interesting to see if this game's in tournaments and if the code's not updated, you know, that would be the strategy I would take, would be to play that mode.
    86:53
    Maybe even in single ball, just to build up. Because also, every time you shoot the left ramp, most of the time the time light is lit, and you'll get additional time. So you'll reset. There's two different colors. I forget which colors they are. The one adds 5 or 10 seconds. The other adds 15 or 20. I can't remember exactly.
    87:13
    It is really hard when you're playing this game to look up at the screen. I mean, on Wizard of Oz, I felt like I could watch the screen a bit more than what I could in this game. This game, I have a hard time looking up at the screen to see what exactly is going on. It's just so frenetic. There's no safe spot. There's no spot that I can park a ball and think it's going to be okay, unless the mode is lit and it's going down to the wind lance, or smog is lit and the lock is lit. There's nowhere else that's safe, really. The scoops only hold it for so long. The ball's just coming right back at you. So, doing multi-ball, it's really active. It's high intensity.
    88:10
    All right. So, I don't think that credit mode was going to show up anytime soon. One more game maybe And that might be it We'll see Nice Oh, power shake Something's falling
    88:45
    Oh, I'm trying to do it. Light locks. I want light locks without actually getting the lock. You want to play?
    89:12
    You want me to put two players? You gotta play with this in front of you this time though. That okay?
    89:20
    You wanna play on your step stool? Okay. Alright. Number two. This is direct video output, both screens.
    89:31
    Alright. So like I said, I don't wanna start the mode, I wanna get the C. Ooh. Oh, so hard to bounce off. You can see I'm kind of lobbing it off the board with my hand. This is a big hassle. Alright, there's the system. Now I want to hit this. No, I don't think I'm going to get this. I'm going to split right now. So orbit to light and get my own. Oh, I have magic. Magic rejected. Magic. Wing the ball. Plung the ball. Alright. Orbit. Orbit? No, that's not the orbit.
    90:19
    Uh, you can do it on DMD games, but it's a little trickier. There's a device called a DMD Extender that can work for it. The new Scourge might be okay, because I assume they're going to use HDMI. But the DMD Extender I have, when I have it, I'll fiddle with him some more. It's, it's, it's, it's... You wanna take a grab? Grab to... ...try and use the... ...frame. What?
    90:47
    Yeah, that's right. Grab to turn! Oh, you can't. I can't do it. There we go. Has it touched you? Child, get you nowhere. Will that work? Is that too far? Too far. Okay, we're going to move the camera. Move it between them. Alright. We have two players here. Alright, go for it. You still here? Okay, get good. I'm not using a moving camera here because I'm . There, and look at that hand. And then . . .
    91:56
    And no camera. It's hard You're gonna play my ball. We normally play four player games, don't we? Where I get one player and you get three, right? Alright. I'm just gonna bring that. Alright, so I'm trying for the mode. The mode is the, let's see. Two columns to the right, all the way at the top. The image of Sauron.
    93:12
    No, no, that's alright. I didn't really want that. Actually, now if I get manned, I'll get my extra ball wet too.
    93:27
    Sure. I'll give my cape to the Dirtless Iron like a big Jackson! Did you get him though? Look at all that action, didn't do anything. Umm, let's see, let's get the book by the mouth.
    93:55
    Just in case I accidentally hit that. What do I do? I beat, ooohhh. Alright. Back up to the top here.
    94:11
    Monty, Monty, Monty. Oh, good. Oh, no, no, no, no. Oh. You could do it again. Two shots and you're multiple. Come on, come on, come on.
    95:34
    Back to the bottom. That's good. Alright, I'm playing greasy. Alright, so you can see I've got this drop target that will light the extra ball if I can hit it. And I'm gonna miss it. It doesn't last forever, I miss it again.
    96:02
    Why'd I do that? I need those two rotations and that's it. You don't want to wait too long on this ride, or it gives you one hit from the ball. Alright, mode locked. I gotta collect the extra ball now, if I just want to. Two balls, let's just play the mode now. Well, I gotta get it lit. So I don't have the mode ready, I gotta use the left ramp to change the mode. Alright, there's the change, let's postpone the launch. Oh, see I do that often. I didn't want the backstab, but now I went for the backstab instead. So now I gotta hit switches to recharge the ring.
    97:06
    Did I get it? Postpone lock. Welcome. Alright, here's the mode. Shoot as much stuff as you can. The key here is just not to let that happen I want to say that to my friends before they save my time I got a super spinner running now I can hear the sound for that. Super spinners really don't have audio. I'm going to use the tough grand. I do not want these frames. I want them down in the water. I'm going to turn it off. Can I make that jump? I can't. Oh, my God. The clipper's getting a little weaker.
    98:01
    I really need that for my timer run, though. There we go. Go! Oh, my God. I'm not going to get a treasure hunt though, I messed that up. Oh, we got one. Come on. That value should have been here. Oh, we got one. Go down! That value should have been mute. Oh, you are a goblin, or whatever you are. Goblin, goblin! And I'm not going to get a Frenchie. No, Jerry, no! Jerry, no! Oh well. Still a good mode I think. I didn't see what the value was.
    99:19
    I haven't played this with tournament settings. Maybe after this game we'll change it and do that. This is what I need. I still need a mode completer, so this should be the mode. So I can help. That's gone. That's gone. Setting one down is not too bad then. What's that? Alright, your turn. And yeah, let me uh, we'll change the tournament settings after this and keep with extra balls of order and uh And what is our experience? Oh, I had an extra ball. You know, let's just break it. Sorry, there we go. Alright, you can play. No, no, go play there.
    100:02
    Yeah, almost 100,000 in the mode if I had kept the two balls in play with treasure hunt as kids. The treasure hunt gets massive. Just to be able to reflect that mode over and over
    100:23
    again. The gods are returning to the mountain. No! No! No! Alright, let's open this up. Game settings.
    100:45
    Alright, let's see. Game settings. Uh, yeah, that's fine, that's fine, that's fine, that's fine, that's fine.
    100:59
    What am I doing? I'm turning on tournament mode. Is there a lot in here? Must be somewhere else, right?
    101:08
    In here? Ah, it's probably in here. Okay. I haven't gotten through these yet, so I really don't know what's in here. system.
    101:24
    Let me go to competition. That's where I'm not looking at the right thing. Competition on. And then we're going to turn stack ball game extra ball limit to no extra balls. And that setting won't matter. Alright. Tilt warnings are still by default per game.
    101:44
    Alright. You want to play again? Or are you all done? Huh? Yes? No? Can we just watch and play? Alright.
    102:05
    I'll just do one thing. One, two. We just said it on the phone. One thing. Let's just begin. Okay. One game. We have a... I never say no.
    102:52
    I've gotten used to the, uh, Chilfer game. Ooh. Uh, uh, it would help to clean the, uh, I don't know, this game. It's just, wow, Brendan, I'm sorry. That was a bad, that was a bad game. All right.
    103:09
    One more. All right. I think our little caveman's here. One, one more. That's it. Then I have to, we're gonna do a turn of this. I remember this after the shoot.
    103:26
    The mystery word on the game, the tilt warning, it took my set. Even though I don't keep that on. So if you tilt on the first ball, next time you tilt, it's in vault. That's it. Instant kill.
    103:52
    Don't forget about that flipper. Thank you. Sound is fantastic on this game. Really? One more.
    105:58
    I'm on. Oh, boy. Can you get it? Oh! Alright. Let's go over next to the ball and see what happens, by the way.
    106:48
    I just will talk to you now. Alright, so I'm gonna be... training. You know what's happenin', Bev? Let's do it again.
    107:06
    Uh, secret, I borrowed the borders from the web. It's just one of the Hobbit maps. But thank you! Yeah, the Hobbit box I found online, called Ring Bearer. I think, ah, what are you doing? Turn it upon my ball. All right,
    107:28
    let's get an extra ball and see what it's worth in tournament mode. So, the quickest way I've found is to do all the qualifiers, Gandalf, Bilbo, Radagast, Elf, Dwarf, Man, And then we have the roaming dog target.
    107:45
    Here's one! Get the hard ones out of the way right now. AHH! Whoops! Get him out of there! You got power fights. Wait. Uh oh. The raven is a miracle. Turn into the rising.
    108:22
    Now here's an interesting thing. I need Bilbo. I don't have Bilbo yet. So I want to postpone that mode because otherwise I won't be able to get that extra ball. So, perform the mode, shoot a bill ball, not like the bill ball.
    108:41
    You can gamble a lot. These brothers are getting a little sluggish. Alright, let's forget about that chopper now. Go for door.
    109:02
    Alright, two targets. Oh, man. I can't hit the F one? Or the... Alright, I need the B. Bingo! Oh, jeez.
    109:18
    Alright, now I've got a warning. Alright, let me have this all lit. Let's see if I can collect it and let it work. Of course, now I've got... The targets are up, but I've got him down.
    109:29
    I made it off. Oh. Alright, this one. Okay, that right here. Alright, this one. Oh, I can't practice.
    109:53
    No, you can't. Oh, I can't practice. Oh, fuck. There we go. All right, now you've done one. All right. Oh!
    110:22
    10,000. I don't get the animation out of there, that's interesting. 10,000 for an extra one. Oh! I got a mod there, I'm gonna load the mod. Let's see. Alright.
    110:49
    Yeah, we're good. Uh oh. Can't give another 10,000. Isn't that much to me? I don't know if I'd really be going for that. Alright, let me, uh, set the mode, THE mode here. just in case I accidentally start it.
    111:31
    Oh, should have gone the other way. It travels both ways, it's just, it randomly picks a spot it seems to start when you hit the ramp. You can change the mode. There we go. And then once it hits the switch you're good to hold off.
    111:47
    See if I can fix those other locks there. Oh boy. Alright, there it is. Alright, got super thinner. Got my standard mode lit. Let's see what's going on back there. Let's post-bump the lock. Hit the mode. I'm on the mode, right? I'm waiting to make sure I'm on the mode. Oh gosh.
    112:32
    Transfer. Oh boy. Oh, get the... Oh, missed it. I really need to be doing a few slugs in the end of the track now. I know that you should be in pretty darn you, probably in the corner of the yard.
    114:12
    Alright, where's my code? Uh, 96,000. Not as good as that first time, but... Alright. So at this point...
    114:36
    Alright, so the red lights will give me my treasure of 96,000. The beast is so great, it's getting to me.
    115:05
    Alright, done. Alright. I still need a mode to complain, huh? It's a hard go. Hey Evan, how's it going? How's it going?
    115:28
    Oh, that's not good. Thank you. I must have had a switch that hit them. Oh well. I have to finish the mode. Oh roll over. This is not so bad. This is probably a twist. Roll over. Nope. Not it. Try and roll over. Okay, I'm going to shoot the bumper down.
    116:26
    The orbit. The orbit should lock it in there. If it makes it round, it'll be big enough. If you can time out the mode, I can time it out, but then I won't get chained to the fire.
    116:37
    I need more time. The purple is my bear. I need two more bears. More bears. Nice. I'm in the red ring. Now I need the right orbit. I have three seconds to do it. This one's not too bad, 19,600. Okay, the ramp will give me more time. If I can hit it. 10, 12 seconds left. Seconds? Alright. So I finished the mode, I now have it in the park.
    117:35
    And that's it. Game over. Evan, the upper flipper's good for a ton of stuff. I mean, a ton of stuff. That upper flipper, you can, you know, divert the ball off it. It's so useful.
    117:59
    Not just for shooting the targets up there. Alright. Welcome, Master Baggins. So I don't... I can't tell much for tournament mode apart from... Lone Skibble. Apart from that extra ball for 10,000 points.
    118:27
    Alright. So I care not about the extra ball. I can't tell if I'm being... sarcastic. No, no, I'm serious. The upper foot right there, you know, you can flip the ball off of it, you can... Here, just keep watch, you'll see. I mean...
    118:47
    Oh, if I can't... If I can stop this flame light from... I mean, that was a... You know, I was supposed to hit the... Oh, yeah, I kept the ball there. But, uh... Obviously missed? What's that? What's that button gonna do? That's gonna give me a thousand points. You wanna hit it? That's a blind scoop!
    119:09
    Look at that upper flipper. I'm coming seriously at it. When the wind man shoots down, I use the upper flipper to get the ball in the right spot. Let's see, what mode am I in? What's this? Duel in Lake Town. I don't think there's any... I'm playing to see all the modes. So I'll hold this flipper up to make sure it kind of doesn't go crazy in case it does. Oh yes, this is shoot the goblin, shoot the orb, shoot the goblin, shoot the goblin. Blue standard for Mystery, that's a good thing to look at. But there's different mystery levels, I'm not playing very well right now. God, sorry.
    120:00
    If you think Jack paid me, he got something else. Both my games have come... Both my odds in this have come broken, basically, and I've had to fix them in various ways.
    120:14
    This one, I was saying earlier, I had to get a new ramp. The ramp back there. I needed a new one. You wouldn't think a metal ramp could be bad, but mine was bad.
    120:27
    Alright, let's see if we can do that tonight. Alright, load lock. Not enough. Whoa! Three-thirty-five. Oh, boy. All right, this might be it then. This might be a thing.
    121:17
    The flipper is not... I've been playing a while and these flippers are giving me a little spongey sound. I'm going to turn the power off on him.
    121:28
    Oh, yeah, the magnet's grabbing the ball on the mode lock. Exactly. Thank you. So the flipper does make the orbit normal.
    121:40
    But they are a bit weaker than they have been. That's great. That's it. See, it's waving around, just barely.
    122:01
    All right, let's just go around here and see what kind of a super orbit we're looking at. Super spinner.
    122:09
    How big of an idea can we collect? Yeah, that was not good. I definitely made it than they were earlier today.
    122:26
    I'm sorry. Pretty nice difference. Oh, they're good. That sucks. Alright, let's begin! Oh boy.
    123:08
    What do I got? 16 seconds left, 26,000. One more spin. Alright, let's go like that. 28,900 for Super Spin. Not bad.
    123:26
    What am I doing here? Let's see what we're doing. Let's play that favorite mode. I messed that one up, that was my fault. Alright, let's get some big money here. Ah, Spider got in the way. Thank you. Ah, come on, take it ready. All right, resurrection. Resurrection. Go down. Another resurrection.
    125:31
    Yeah, they're just getting a little weaker. Alright. This is your life. Now. Alright, let's see what we can do.
    126:39
    Oh, a bit of a dark abyss there. Thank you. All right. I think... I'll make that today, so thanks for watching. See you next time.
    128:54
    I'm exhausted. Uh, he used to come... The modes in single ball play, it depends on the load. Some of them are, you know, like the one ring is just a single shot. So, yeah, that one's definitely easier to complete on single ball. Yeah, thanks for watching, guys. I appreciate it.
    129:21
    But, yeah, so some of the modes are easier in multi-ball. Some are not. Some you have to avoid shooting shots. There's the Mirkwood mode. If you shoot the left orbit, the mode ends. So that means if you shoot the left spinner. And the second shot to the mode is the ball in hole, that hole. So that ends it all together.
    129:39
    Makes it tough. Alright, we'll do this again. In any code version, I'll make sure to do this. But maybe I'll have someone else over at some point to play a game with me.
    129:52
    See you later.
