TL;DR

Dead Flip explores Stern AC/DC Premium's evolving code and complex song-based rule strategies.

Summary

Dead Flip hosts Jon and Nick play Stern AC/DC (Premium) for their weekly 'Battle Week' series, diving deep into the game's complex rule set and strategic song selection mechanics. They discuss how extensive code updates by Lyman Sheets have transformed AC/DC from a mediocre launch title into one of Nick's favorite games, explaining the interplay between song choice, multiball types (Jam/Album/Tour), VIP passes, and jackpot collection. The hosts emphasize AC/DC's unique design philosophy where gameplay fundamentally changes based on which AC/DC song is selected, making it strategically unlike most other pinball machines.

Key Claims

  • Stern AC/DC (Premium) rules have been changed via code updates multiple times (Nick estimates 5-8 times or more)

    high confidence · Nick states: 'the rules have changed on this code-wise eight times, five times, I don't know. It's hard to keep track. They change a lot actually when they tweak it.'

  • Nick purchased Stern AC/DC (Premium) as his first new backbox game specifically because of the rules, not the theme

    high confidence · Nick: 'It's one of my favorite games. I think it's the first new backbox game I've ever purchased because of the rules alone.'

  • Code designer Lyman Sheets actively balances AC/DC modes by watching high-level players like Keith Elwin exploit strong strategies and nerfing them to encourage different playstyles

    high confidence · Jon and Nick discuss how Sheets watches videos of Keith Elwin and nerfs modes he dominates, comparing it to game balance in Call of Duty.

  • Highway to Hell and Worm Machine strategies have been nerfed in recent code updates

    high confidence · Jon: 'The Highway to Hell strategy that used to be big is dead. The Worm Machine strategy that used to be big is gone. They reduced the points on that.'

  • AC/DC's rule design is fundamentally different from other pinball machines because the entire game mechanics change based on which song is selected

    high confidence · Jon explains: 'Right, because it changes depending on the song you pick. It changes how you play the game. It changes where your points come from.'

  • All Stern AC/DC songs contain the word 'Hell' in the title, including Hell's Bells, Hell Ain't a Bad Place to Be, Highway to Hell, and What the Hell

    medium confidence · Jon states: 'There is no Stern AC/DC (Premium) song that doesn't mention Hell' but then corrects to say 'song with Hell in the title,' and lists examples.

  • Stern AC/DC (Premium) has three multiball types: Jam (ramp-based), Album (drop target-based), and Tour (chronological song-based)

    high confidence · Jon and Nick explain: 'Jam is the multiball that resides around the ramps' and reference Album and Tour as different multiball modes with distinct rules.

Notable Quotes

  • “It's one of my favorite games. I think it's the first new backbox game I've ever purchased because of the rules alone.”

    Nick@ 3:27 — Establishes Nick's position that AC/DC's rule design, not theme licensing, drove his purchase decision—contrasts with typical collector motivations.

  • “The rules is the reason I fell in love with the game. Yep. As they started adding things like the song Jackpot, the VIP passes, all these things that we're hopefully going to explain this week, the game became more fun, the strategy was more fun.”

    Nick@ 4:03 — Highlights iterative rule design improvements transforming AC/DC's reputation from launch weakness to strategic depth.

  • “balance a game out is almost kind of like if you play a first-person shooter, like Call of Duty. What they'll do is sometimes, like, let's say the sniper rifle was too accurate, and everybody grabbed sniper rifles... They're going to dumb that down because it's way too strong, and it actually makes the game less fun.”

    Jon (citing Adam Levkoff from Pinball Expo)@ 5:24 — Explains Lyman Sheets' balancing philosophy using esports analogy, revealing deliberate meta-game management approach.

  • “Stern AC/DC (Premium) is not the same every time. You could start with a mode, finish it, go to something else. If you know that, like, you want to start with Rosie, build up all your shots, and then go to, like, Rock and Roll, and you're getting Rock and Roll shots, and then Rosie points on top of that, and all this stuff. It just gets out of control.”

    Jon @ rules explanation — Articulates AC/DC's unique design: song-dependent mechanics create exponential rule complexity unlike static pinball rule sets.

  • “The Highway to Hell strategy that used to be big is dead. The Worm Machine strategy that used to be big is gone. They reduced the points on that.”

    Jon@ 10:03 — Confirms active code balancing and nerfs—competitive meta constantly shifting due to developer intervention.

See, that's why you need Marie in your life. She's going to let you know. She did it. Listen, I don't hate Marie. I think she's great. You said you did. No, I never said I hated her. I said I hate you. I don't hate you. Good evening, pinheads, and welcome back to another exciting episode of Dead Split Pinball. We counted your votes. telly them, and guess what we're playing this week? ACDC Premium. That's right, folks. I have Nick with me. We're going to beat the crap out of each other on this game today, do our best to explain what we're shooting for, why we're shooting it, the modes we're picking, etc.
3:18
ACDC, in fact, is something that Nick would like to talk about. Do I? Yeah, why not? ACDC. It's one of my favorite games. I think it's the first new in-box game it is the first new in-box game I've ever purchased because of the rules alone. In fact, when the game came out the rules weren't really great and it wasn't clear and I don't think any of us liked it when it first came out. Honestly, for as long as we've had this or for as long as ACDC's been out, the rules have changed on this code-wise eight times, five times, I don't know. It's hard to keep track. They change a lot actually when they tweak it. But the rules is the reason I fell in love with the game. Yep.

    design_philosophy: AC/DC Premium's design philosophy is fundamentally unique among modern pinball: song selection mechanically changes entire game rules, shots, multiball types, and point sources—creating exponential rule complexity unavailable in static-rule machines.

    high · Jon: 'Stern AC/DC (Premium) is not the same every time' and 'Right, because it changes depending on the song you pick. It changes how you play the game. It changes where your points come from.'

  • ?

    licensing_signal: The Big Lebowski Pinball successfully licensed the entire movie soundtrack, representing significant IP licensing achievement that Jon and Nick highlight as major selling point for the game.

    medium · Jon: 'It's awesome... The soundtrack, they licensed every damn song from that movie, which is out of control. The music alone is going to be cool.'

  • $

    market_signal: Recent Stern releases (Walking Dead, Big Lebowski Pinball) are driving tournament activity and content creation. Big Lebowski Pinball's alpha code at Pinball Expo generated significant interest despite being in pre-release state.

    medium · Jon and Nick discuss playing Walking Dead at Blind Robin and viewing Big Lebowski Pinball alpha code at Expo VIP party: 'The soundtrack, they licensed every damn song from that movie... The music alone is going to be cool.'

  • ?

    personnel_signal: Steve Richie is confirmed as voice actor for AC/DC Premium and, along with Lyman Sheets, identified as primary design authority ('the main two professors... the guys').

    high · Jon and Nick identify Steve Richie as voice talent and primary designer: 'Steve and Lyman are kind of the main two professors. They're the guys. He's the guy. He's responsible.'

  • ?

    product_concern: Physical bell mechanism on AC/DC Premium exhibits reliability issues—Jon notes 'the physical swinging bell, which doesn't always register every time,' indicating QC or design tolerance problems.

    medium · Jon: 'Because it's a Premium Edition, it has a physical swinging bell, which doesn't always register every time.'

    • As they started adding things like the song Jackpot, the VIP passes, all these things that we're hopefully going to explain this week, the game became more fun, the strategy was more fun, and it went from a game that I was like, I don't really know what I'm doing, it's not my favorite, to a game that I, the first game I bought new in box. Oh, yeah. was an ACDC because of that, not because of the theme, not because of anything else other than the rules were kind of unlike any other pinball game made. Right, because it changes depending on the song you pick. It changes how you play the game. It changes where your points come from. And if you watch videos of this game being played throughout the past, what, year and a half, maybe two years? How long has this been out? Oh, man, maybe three now. Maybe three? You'll see, like, Keith Elwin, if you look at all the videos of him ever playing this, he will say, like, this mode's the best and this mode's the best. And because he blows up a certain mode, Lyman Sheets goes back and says, that's way too strong, let's dumb that down and change this around. They actually had a really good analogy on this yesterday. Yesterday, last night, was the Chicago Expo Finals for the pinball tournament. And so they were on talking about games for, you know, 10, 12 hours through the whole tournament. ACDC was one of the games. And I think it was Adam Levkoff said it in a really cool way, which is to balance a game out is almost kind of like if you play a first-person shooter, like Call of Duty. Oh, right. What they'll do is sometimes, like, let's say the sniper rifle was too accurate, and everybody grabbed sniper rifles, and everybody went, you know, and hid away and just sniped all their friends. They're going to dumb that down because it's way too strong, and it actually makes the game less fun. Right. It's not fun if everyone's sniping and nobody's, like, running around playing. So then they'll make the shotgun way more strong, or they'll dumb down the sniper rifle, or they'll change a rule in the game to push you to try other weapons or to push you to try other things. And that's kind of what Lyman does with the code on ECDC is he'll watch the pro players exploit maybe something in the code that gives it too many points compared to another way of playing. Exactly. And then he'll dumb that down so that it's a more balanced game, so that there's other ways to play. And that's just not true with a lot of other pinball machines. You kind of have the rules. You can maybe knock down the point value on some things. But fundamentally, the whole game changes when you pick different songs. And because you can change your song, it's hard to, like on Fishtails, you can dial in the rules on that game because it's the same every time. ACDC is not the same every time. You could start with a mode, finish it, go to something else. If you know that, like, you want to start with Rosie, build up all your shots, and then go to, like, Rock and Roll Train, and you're getting Rock and Roll Train shots, and then Rosie points on top of that, and all this stuff. It just gets out of control. And different multiballs, and we'll get into all this, I promise, and there's really just no 10-minute answer to how late you can do that. In fact, I don't think there's a two-hour answer to how late you can do that. Yeah, no kidding. But depending on what multiball you go for can also change what modes you want to be in, what songs you want to be in, because each different multiball, jam, album, and tour have different ways to do it. And then on top of all this, you have the super jackpot or the song jackpot that you can collect by firing the cannon. And that depends on the song you're playing when that song came out chronologically for the band. Then there's the second way of collecting your song jackpot, which is not directly from the cannon, but from when the song that you're playing pops up on the back on the DMV. So depending on how early or how late the song is in ACDC's catalog, depends on when that shows up in tour or album multiball. It's pretty ridiculous. It works on jam. It works on those two. So, for example, TNT is one of the earlier songs in their albums, right? If you pick TNT, it's kind of a harder mode. Because it's right above the center drain. Yeah, it's like a shot you don't ever want to take. But if you get to album multiball, it might be something you want to do because it will pop up very early. It's one of the first songs in their catalog. And you can collect your song jackpot. So there's a lot of weird rules, and we're probably going to talk in circles a little bit with some of these things, but we'll try to make it as clear as possible why we're picking certain songs. Oh, yeah. Why we're picking certain modes.
    8:44
    Do it sleek. Thanks for the follow. I hope I said that right. I'm going to go Doc Helix. Doculix. Oh, yeah.
    8:53
    Doculix? Doculix. Thanks for the follow-up. Thanks for following us. So if you have questions, hit up the chat. We'll try to keep an eye on it. We're going to battle today. Yep. We're probably going to play a couple games where we try to beat each other. But then we might, maybe if we have time later, or this week for sure, play modes that you guys want to see. Like if we never play TNT and you're like, hey, what's TNT? How would you play it? For those about to rock. Someone like Daniele blew up for those about to rock and no one understood how. We also don't know how, so we want to find that out. But that's the cool part of this game. Everybody that steps up to it has their own way of playing it. Yep. I just learned about a new way that a lot of people have been playing, watching the stream last night from watching the Pop It TV.
    9:41
    So I'm going to try some new stuff today just so we're not playing the same mode. Yep. I'm going to stick to my tried and true technique. He's probably going to kick my butt. We'll see what happens. But I'm going to try some other ways. There's another thing I should say is that this has the most recent code.
    9:58
    Like we said, the code changes all the time. And this is the most recent code. So the Highway to Hell strategy that used to be big is dead. The Worm Machine strategy that used to be big is gone. They reduced the points on that. So any other way you may have seen, like I said, it changes all the time. So maybe we should shut up and play pinball. Yeah. But ACDC is one of those games that you can kind of talk a lot about philosophically to somebody that's played it a lot. Because there's so much to it. There's so much to do. All right, folks. So we're going to get this fired up, and we'll do our best to explain why the hell we're shooting for that. Yay. So here we go. Also, thanks to the team for making an awesome game. Oh, hell yeah. This just continues to be one of our favorite games that we come back to and play the heck out of. So keep on making great games. Also, folks, I want to say thanks for everyone that tuned in on Saturday? Friday night. Friday night for the Stern Walking Dead release party that we streamed. Oh, yeah. That was incredible. There was a lot of people chatting, a lot of questions being asked, and it was legit. I'm noticing something here. Since the new code, we've been doing the live stream, so we haven't really played this a lot. Right. So we have a lot of room to blow this game up. Oh, heck yeah. 121 is not... I mean, it's a good score. Jack Danger. We can kill that. I'm second. That's probably how today is going to go as well. We've got Danger in third. We've got SSR, who is nobody. Nobody at all. Probably one of the designers. I love you. Who would that be? I don't know the name. Steve something Richie.
    11:41
    Might be Steve something Richie. Yeah. SSI? Yeah. I should look that up. Right? What's Steve Richie's middle name? Yeah. Because you'll hear Steve Richie yelling at us a lot from this game. He does all the voice acting. Man, now I feel bad for saying somebody. If that's Steve Richie, I mean, that's everybody. He's the guy. He's responsible. There's a lot of people, obviously, that do the art and everything else, but Steve and Lyman are kind of the main two professors. They're the guys. So do you want to go first? I'll go first. All right. We'll get a practice game in and then we'll start battling it out. So I'm going to try this new Hell's Bell strategy that people are talking about. And we'll see how it goes. Hell's Bell, as you can see, depending on what song we pick, a different shot is lit up on the game. And as I go through all these songs, you're going to see different shots blinking. And that kind of indicates what shot is most important during that move. That's where you're going to make all your points. Yeah. For those about to rock is the right ramp. We got the warmest team. ACDC target. Thunderstruck. Is what Jack's going to play. These are what we call the cug or the doink targets. Yep. And I'm going to play Hell's Bells, which is the bell right here in the middle. There's like a swinging bell. Yep. And let's go and see what we got. Blow it up, buddy. So I'm going to try to hit the bell first to get everything else lit up Beautiful shot So now that he hit the bell all of his shots are lit to start making points off of As you can see the left ramp arrow went out because he collected that target I liked that shot. And because it's a premium, it has a physical swinging bell, which doesn't always register every time.
    13:38
    Blue Continental. It is so pretty. This is a very beautiful game. I should say we have no ball saves. No ball saves. Tight tilt. And super wide outlays. And wide outlays. We got this one set up pretty tight. Once we get going, it'll feel even that much better. We try to keep our games pretty hard here so that when we go to tournaments, there aren't any surprises.
    14:03
    I have a beer right here. Thank you, brother. So I am a huge fan of Thunderstruck, and here's why. Me too. It's really good. It's super good. All right, so these targets are going to kill you. You never, ever want to shoot for these on purpose, because it's just going to send the ball right back at you at high speed. But what's unavoidable is hitting these. You will hit them trying to hit the ramp. You'll hit them trying to hit the loop, the bell, the right loop, the right ramp, everything. One of these targets is in the way at all times. And when you hit it, because it's a roving target, when you hit it, it lights up all the shots for points. But then on top of that, there's a white roving arrow that if you hit that, I think it's like double what that shot should have been. I think you have to get two thunderstorm targets to get the white arrow. Oh, really? Yeah. Oh, okay. Right on. You get one, you get everything blinking, I think. You get two, you get a roving arrow. We'll see. We will see. And the best part of this mode is when you're in a multi-ball and those balls are flying everywhere, you are destroying those targets. You can't avoid them. A lot of people say this isn't like a skill-based mode because you're relying on fucking up, But you're going to hit these. You're going to hit them. I promise you. If you're not hitting these, you shouldn't be watching this stream right now. Yeah, you should be playing the tour. No ball save. Woo. All right, here we go. No ball save, my friend. Yeah. Also, on this game, I don't know if you can see, but there's two ways to launch it. There's a button right here, which you actually can't see. Yeah, maybe we should back out on another. We don't have to do it now, but maybe soon we should back out. Until I could explain VIP targets and stuff. Well, I'll tell you, I also brought another sketch. I saw that thing. I saw that. That I think might be lighter weight. To come out. But I wonder if that'll make it too imbalanced and wobbly. Too wobbly? I just saw it in my closet. Anyway, there's a plunger and there's a button right here by your genitals. And you can hit that to launch the ball. But that button also comes into play later on and we'll explain why. Yeah, we should put the button in somehow. The button's important. Just FYI, you still have fishtails as this week's game. Well, you know what? Because I'm a ding-dong, you guys are the business. Thank you, everyone, for helping me.
    16:27
    Game night. There, it says ACDC. We'll fix it later. Thank you, everyone, for pointing that out. Here we go. All right, enough dilly-dally. Let's go, baby. Win it. So you want to go down the lane that's blinking, and that will give you a VIP pass.
    16:51
    And VIP passes. And there's the Thunderstruck. See, all you needed was the one hit, and now you have this white arrow roving. You're right. So all these targets are worth money, but the one that's white and blinking is worth double, I believe. It's double. It's more. Okay. It's more. It's at least more. At least more. At least. So my approach when playing this game is I'm a jam player. So jam is the multiball that resides around the ramps. If you hit the ramps like eight times, six times, something like that,
    17:28
    hit the ramp six times, it lights up, jam multiball, get it up the right ramp, you're in your multiball. Every multiball in this game is collected by going up the right ramp. That's how you start every multiball in this game.
    17:41
    Good shot. Mike CP 66 thanks for the follow All right, so what you didn't see there was I used this button I was talking about to launch the cannon because it fed the ball to the cannon now Immediately there's two things you could do with the cannon you could shoot for the blinking jackpot Which was the lightning bolt here which you can build up so collecting it right away isn't really worth anything
    18:07
    About a million to start And then plus whatever you get on your mode. Right, exactly. That shot will become super important later on in your ball. What I like to do, or I guess what we all like to do, is to shoot for the bell, because three bell hits gives you a 2x multiplier on your play field. And that's just a nice, clean hit that I missed that's just, you know, it's safe. Yeah.
    18:31
    What are you going to do? Well, I'm going to take a loop here. We're just going to start collecting these. Actually, I'll do the old loop to get James started. Love you.
    18:47
    JD, everybody. That's called a Jack Danger. Holding the flipper up and just letting it follow. All right.
    18:57
    Sup, suckers. Bob Twishel. Thanks for coming, buddy. Bob Twishel. Going to get pretty hard in here, folks. Yeah, I think in a minute we're just going to start playing.
    19:18
    So again, what he's shooting for is the bell, because he's in Hell's Bells right now. And that lights up all of his shots, much like Thunderstruck did for me.
    19:32
    Thunder. Doc Helix. Thunderstruck is the jam on this game. Cleaner. Woo. Take that bell, bitch.
    19:49
    Oh, shit. You got a free TNT target out of that. Go. Oh. ACDC is also notoriously known for being able to backhand every shot pretty much. Left ramp from the left flipper, left loop from the left flipper, bell from the right flipper, right ramp from the right flipper.
    20:19
    Pizza fan! Do you guys work in the Foot Clan hideout? Okay. Don't tell anyone. Nice save. All right, so he has album multiball lit, and that's collected by knocking down all these drop targets here. And you have to complete a couple of banks. I think it's three banks of targets.
    20:43
    I think I want to do it without going for my rants. I'm just going to go directly to album. Yeah. Because I think I only have one bell hit for double. And use your cannon to collect the hit. So you could use your cannon, and the reason held bells is kind of a bigger thing people are playing with is because a VIP pass also rings your bell, which can keep your 2X going for longer. And ringing your bell, it's just like hitting your bell. So if you don't even have it started and you have one hit left, you can use your VIP pass to just start your 2X.
    21:21
    Thanks, Todd. What do you want on your tombstone? All right, he's got 2X rolling, which is 2X for everything on the play field while it's rolling.
    21:34
    And to keep it going, that's all he has to do is keep hitting the bell. There you go. See, he just used that to keep his bell alive. The thing I noticed, though, is in Hell's Bell, I have a weirdness with it giving you your multiball back when you're using your VIPs. Oh, that's not good. Oh, God. Not good. Okay, I'll just go and help you out on that day because I want to learn it.
    22:24
    Oh, it's working for you. Nice clean in lane. Let's learn. Live clean. Go Gal Media. How's it going? Thanks for coming.
    22:51
    Again, if I'm saying your name's wrong, send me hate mail, because I don't know how to read. Oh, God. All right, so he had jammed multiball there. Jam is the multiball that you get from beating the crap out of the ramps. And he half-ramped it into the drain. And that also means everything I built up in my song jackpot is only good for one ball. It's good for the ball that you're playing. Yeah, exactly. And so if I were to get that song jackpot, I didn't see how much it was, but it could have been up to $20, $30 million. Yep, $20. And if I would have collected the song jackpot on that ball, I would have gotten double, you know. Yeah, he would have had another $20 on there. And if he had the bell rolling, he could have doubled that. Right. Yep. Which is why Hell's Bells, I think, is picked by a lot of people, because you can get that 3x up easily. Oh, yeah. You can save your VIP passes.
    23:48
    And then, when your cannon shot's lit for your song jackpot, you can kind of bang on the bell. Really quick. Get it up to 3x, or 2x at least. Hit your song jackpot for like 30, 50, 80, whatever million. Yep. It's pretty tasty. Is that what they call it? Tasty? I think they call it tasty. Like, that shot's pretty tasty. All right, let's actually do something here. So I like to backhand all these ramps. Jack's really good at backhanding all these.
    24:24
    Did I give you a miss? Then you hit the thing you wanted to. That's your mode. I mean, there it is. And now jam's lit, so I just forehand it. Well, I missed it, but I need to go up the right ramp now to start my multiball.
    24:39
    Hopefully this comes down clean. That came down too fast. And that was my fault. Nice little bell hit.
    24:54
    All right. I want that shot. And now, if the bell will calm the frick down, I'm going to hit it with my... Frick. I got ripped off. So in this mode, I'm sorry, in this multiball, your ramps are the most important thing.
    25:21
    But you want to hit at least every shot once because that's how you get your out of ball. So your left loop, your right loop, your right ramp, left ramp, the bell.
    25:35
    And I got a Viagra target. And my ball. For what? Oh, the Viagra target? I hit my VIP. So I only had one shot left, and VIP's count. Oh, my God. My life.
    26:02
    What's the chat doing there? Okay. I need to stop looking over here when I'm playing. I guess that's what you want to play. Teach me the ways of ACDC. Jaded, you don't have to say hi, just welcome. You're good. So, I have jam multiple ready, so I'm going to go into that. I'm going to get my VIP pass up top.
    26:24
    I think after this game, I'm also going to practice my super skill shot. If you do a super skill shot, you hold, I think it's the right clipper. Left. Oh, wait, on ACDC, I can't remember. I forget. I've been playing Metallica so much. It might be right. I think you hold the right or left flipper, the ball's going to kick out, and then if you hit a major shot within 5, 10 seconds... Yep, you get two VIP passes. Yeah, you get double your skill shot plus two VIP passes, which come in handy with health bells mode in particular, and in extending multi-balls.
    27:00
    So your add-a-ball in a multi-ball is you have to hit every single shot at least once, and it starts your ball save again and throws another ball into play. Now, let's say you're playing your multiball, and you've made, let's say, four of the five shots, and you drain all the balls, all of them, and you have like a split second to hit your VIP pass. Hitting that will give you that last shot, and it'll bring your whole freaking multiball back to life. Now, this is a rule I'm not exactly sure of, but what it really matters is kind of like the picks in Metallica. if you get those shots before multiball on your ball, then you really only need to complete the ones that you have. Yeah, I don't know about that. Is there a way to keep track of that? There's no way to keep track of it from what I know, but if you hit the right and left ramp and then you start multiball, you don't need to hit those anymore. You just need to focus on the other ones to complete it.
    27:57
    But if you complete all five, it's going to restart the same way the picks do in Metallica. If you get all four picks, you've got to restart. You don't want to get all the shots. You only want most of them. I think. Also. There's a lot of I think's in the ACDC because the rules are so crazy. Yeah. There is something with Hell's Bells that not a lot of people know or do, and it's that if you go through the bell, you get lower playfield time. Yeah. Which no one does because it is such a hard shot to make. In fact, any song with hell in it has a lower playfield. Lower playfield. So there's Hell's Bells, Hell Ain't a Bad Place to Be, and Highway to Hell. Thanks for coming. Das Bacon? Das Bacon.
    28:36
    Sammich. Das Bacon? Sammich. All right. Mark's figured, and everyone's here. I'm going to go for my jam multi-ball. So he needs to hit the right ramp to start that multi-ball up.
    28:50
    Try to catch it, but not work. Yeah, we have no ball save on this, by the way. And he gets it. And he's probably going to use this cannon to hit the bell. my man, now we have 2x running so every shot he makes is worth double the point
    29:19
    that'll come back you don't have any VIP passes left it's keeping track for you It's pretty much any trap that's blinking right now.
    29:40
    All right right ramp maybe I thought you hit the right loop already Yeah, it was right ramp. So now he's going to collect it.
    29:56
    That's a jackpot for $9 million. Had he had his doubler going, that would have been $18 million. Papu again. There is no ACDC song that doesn't mention hell.
    30:12
    I guess ACDC song with hell in the title. Hell ain't a bad place to be. Highway to hell. Hell sells.
    30:23
    What the hell. Okay. Half ramps on this, folks, will destroy you. make your shots on this game.
    30:42
    He just got an extra ball, but since our extra balls have turned off, it's worth two and a half million points.
    30:56
    And they don't love each other. Go, love. Love. This is a great ball, man. Thanks, buddy. So what I don't know the rules of, and maybe somebody that knows in the chat can let me know, I don't think that cannonballing means my song jackpot is ready again. I think what it means is like my combo jackpot or my loop jackpot or something is ready. So I'm actually going to hit it and see what that means. Whenever that yellow light is on, it means I'm cannonballing. But that isn't blinking. But whenever that yellow light, that's what I mean. I think the blinking one is a song jackpot. Yeah, I see what you're saying. I think it's tied to the combos or the ramps. Combo jackpot. Sure. That makes sense. Maybe I can check in my challenge here.
    31:40
    One fire lane. See, I have one fire lane left. If one more fire lane, I could get my song jackpot. Yep. All you have to do is hit that R that's spelled fire, and then he's got a six million jackpot song. If I go up the right ramp, it's going to go into the cannon. So if I go my left ramp, I could light the song jackpot. Yep. You just got to change your in lane. I'm going to steal my song jackpot. It's about six and a half. Not worth it.
    32:03
    So I'm going to see where else I am in the mode here. Maybe I need like one or two more ramps. Eight ramps, four target banks, three loops. So two or multi-ball is hitting the loop enough times and then getting it up the right ramp, and that's two or multi-ball.
    32:24
    Tradition. Expo was out of control, man. Out of control. Those half ramps. Good slap, man. And Nick has done something we don't do that often. He played a ball until the song ended.
    33:00
    I'll just stick with Howling Bells. You can change the song there if you wanted. Yeah. Oh, good ball, man. Good ball.
    33:11
    You didn't want to spend your VIP passes? Is that my third ball? Yeah. If you have VIP passes left and you drain your last ball, smash the crap out of this button because there's a few extra points. That could win you the game.
    33:26
    Could have got me $100 million. Yeah, exactly. How'd you do? Blue Continental. In the main tournament, I didn't do so well. How'd you do, Nick? I ended up about five, six, eight spots. I haven't checked after last night. Sure. Or two nights ago. But I was getting close at B division. To qualify. And just ran out of time. We had to go home. My goal was to get into B by five, come home, and then if I stayed in B, I would drive back out Sunday morning. Yep. So, you know, all I needed was, and I'm sure this is everyone's story, all I needed was one really big game. Big blowout. On any game. I was kind of like in the middle of all the games. Yeah. I ended up about 60th overall, 50th overall. I think I was like 90th overall. I got my ass whooped by The Walking Dead, and I got my ass whooped by Mustang. and the reasoning behind some of my scores was those games were only one danger until you tilted. Yeah. And you just couldn't move the game at all. I did pretty good in classics, but overall just, you know, we'll get our Whopper points and put our tail between our legs. Yeah, you got a few points and you did well in classics. Yep. And I think we all did pretty crappy at the... The main tournament. At the... Oh, yeah, the launch party. I don't think any of us got over like 6 million. It was really bad. But you can watch it happen, folks, if you go to past broadcasts. You can go watch us all. Stern was kind enough to let us stream that whole event on Friday. It was pretty rad. All right. You got to be 99, bro. So I'm going to stick with Thunderstruck because YOLO. Isn't that what they say? YOLO.
    35:14
    Don't tell my mom I said that. YOLO as low as possible. Nice drop. Drop catch. My man. So that's why you don't shoot directly for those thunderstruck targets. Oh, Nicky, jeez, putting his name on the board.
    35:41
    My man. No chance. Oh, you know why? Because no one's ever played Hell's Bells in this game. All right, so let's make this interesting. Ooh, what are we playing for today? Oh, I got it. No, I got it.
    35:58
    What are you doing tonight? Playing pinball with you. Yeah, so the loser has to buy the first two rounds of beer when we go play Walking Dead at Blind Robin here in Chicago. Thanks, Blind Robin. Thanks, Gavin.
    36:13
    First two rounds, I'm the loser of this game. Yes. Okay. I will continue my Hell's Bells because it's treated me well.
    36:25
    Well's Bells. Are you eating sir? Yeah. You want one? Yeah, can I have a sir? Culture, we did... What the frick? This is blue from your jeans. I'll eat it. Dude, it's raw jeans, man. That's what makes the mints taste better.
    36:42
    Culture, Big Lebowski, we didn't get a chance to get our hands on it, but we watched a lot of people play it. It's awesome. It looks incredible. The soundtrack, they licensed every damn song from that movie, which is out of control. The music alone is going to be cool. Yep. I mean, legitimately, just hearing that music coming from a pinball machine blew my mind. It's so good.
    37:05
    Since it was in alpha code, there was a lot of things breaking, but the game isn't ready yet, but it is legit.
    37:12
    I wish I'd played it, actually. Yeah, me too. We went to that, we snuck into that VIP party and just... I mean, we were invited. I mean, we were invited to that VIP party. Okay.
    37:24
    Here we go, folks. Hells Bell by Nick Campbell. And he's trying the super skill shot. And if you don't get it in time, you don't get any skill shot, you don't get any VIP passes. And if you really don't hit it, you drain. That's right.
    37:40
    Which clipper did you hold on? Right, I think. You ding-dong. I think right. Whoa. Yeah, Walking Dead, Blinders.
    37:49
    Gavin's putting one in. We're not sure if it's there right this minute, but it should be. Gavin said he's putting it in today. Yeah.
    37:59
    Maybe right now. Maybe tonight. I don't know. Maybe tonight. I should have played more conservatively now that I know there's two beers on the line. I forgot about that.
    38:10
    I got an idea. I'm going to play Hills Bells wait I went with my alright okay I'll do Thunderstruck again I love come on let's one to one you got to do a flipper skill shout out oh great is it right flipper or left flipper so that gave me two VIP passes instead of one you piece of tilt alright shilt What was it? Shilt? What's shilt? Shit tilt? Yeah. What's that mean? I don't know. It doesn't matter.
    38:50
    So, straight down the middle. Give me... You got goose? You got goose cream? You got little light? Surprise me. I'm not picky. Yeah, okay. Thanks, buddy. Don't pee in anything. Um, so Nick has a timer to wait out the tilt that I just gave him.
    39:15
    I nailed that damn super skill shot and then just straight down the middle, which is very unfortunate.
    39:24
    He's back. What did you talk about? What? You're fine. So, uh, the timer's at 40 seconds. I've heard conflicting... I thought it was 30 seconds.
    39:35
    Between balls, between you and me, from what I heard, you could wait... Three minutes. Kind of as long as you want, but kind of pretty long time. Like, I could wait five minutes. You just can't hold your ball during gameplay for too long. Right. But again, someone in the chat last week said that that was a crack of shit, too. Well, you know, you can hold one ball. If you're in multi-ball, you can hold one ball forever. You've got to make progress in the game. Progress. Make progress. You can progress in the game within 30 seconds. That means juggling the ball. That means a lot of things, but you have to do something. Will you guys do a game with the dollar bills blocking the targets?
    40:13
    No. But it's not gambling. We're not going to. We'll both take our dollar bills back at the end of the day. Yeah, and keep our own dollar bills. Yeah, we would never gamble on that. But it's fun to use dollar bills because the design is so pretty and distracting. Right. It's like to distract your opponent. Right. Because you're just staring at that money like, man, I wish that was mine. But you know that that's mine and this one's yours. Right. Yeah, I would never gamble on pinball. Yep. Okay. Revenge of the Gator for the old... I'm not sure I've even heard of that before. Was that a pinball game? There's Gator. Right, because gambling is wrong and bad. Thank you, Blue Continental.
    40:57
    I'm pretty sure Blue Continental is Crystal. Did you get your super skill set? I did. Oh. So Nick's doing something called biting someone's style, which is copying someone's moves.
    41:25
    You know what? This beer's good. You like it? It's hard to drink. It's like those sweet yes You know I'll break up just let me pound it. Oh, I hate my life
    41:36
    Alright so Nick has three million, so we're killing it Pinball game, huh? What was it called revenge of the Gator weird? Off to check that out Old school game boy
    41:52
    Lack of balls wave Yo, fight your own style. Shook it out. Um, how's the backhand on the right round? Ah, it was okay. Oh, it is okay.
    42:22
    Oh my gosh. Oh boy! All good? All right, so now that I'm draining like an idiot, we're going to want that bell hit again. That was an interesting thing.
    42:53
    I'm just going to start collecting a few shots here. It wasn't enough. You know, I feel like that doesn't work with health bells. Why not?
    43:05
    Because the bell thinks something else is happening, or the button thinks it's doing something else. I'm sure it's not purpose. I'm sure it's not, like, accidental.
    43:13
    If this is for beers, I'm going to give this a second. Oh, my Lord. I mean, oh, my pep. I need to beat you. I'm also going to check my status. And this is good on any pinball machine. You can hold down one button and then flip the other button and you'll see the status. Yo, is that Mike Beach House? Mike Beach House. That is a great name. I like that.
    43:37
    Yo, my name is Mike Beach House. Is that like beach? Beach House. Is that Beach House? Mike Beach House.
    43:46
    Oh, right. Mike Beach House. Sorry, dad noises, folks. VIP pass is one. Free ramps. Free target bait. All right. I'm going to go for ramps. Get, get, get, get.
    44:06
    I've got to get free ramps, and then in the multi-ball, and then beat this guy. Yes. How many games are we playing?
    44:15
    Until you win, is that how it happens? No, we do this like practice games, you know? We'll play a tournament after this. This is for a beer. Not that we gamble for pinball ever. This isn't gambling. It's more just high fives and good times.
    44:32
    But if gambling was fun and legal, we might be playing for a beer right now. Good backhand. My man.
    45:01
    The left backhand ramp, if you want to keep doing that on the fly, once you've got it up there and it's coming back down, it is so freaking early on the flipper, it's a little frightening.
    45:19
    Oh. He's got jam lit. And he kadoinks it. All right. He's got two dangers, a beef spangberg. That's a full beef. That's a full-ass beef, man. All he has to do is hit the right ramp, and he'll get jam multiball going.
    45:48
    He's going to try to backhand it. hand crank beautiful chopsticks more chopsticks throws it away five tests to drop test beautiful baby foot I just used all of our terminology in that one If you had to choose Metallica or ACDC, there's World Culture.
    46:21
    I love ACDC. It's one of my favorite pins that's come out in a very long time. No, you don't choose your children. We have them both. There are no favorites. Metallica's behind us, having a good time playing itself. That's weird.
    46:50
    I just never got Ace in DC. Oh, man, Tradition, you are missing out. This game is the shit. I'm sorry for swearing at this dude.
    47:04
    Right now I'm trying to find the shot that will give me the attaball. without using my VIP pass. Yeah.
    47:14
    So it's got to be a ramp. Maybe the right ramp. That was it. And he's got two X running, which means this shot's going to be 16 million, folks, instead of eight. Oh, beautiful.
    47:37
    keeping his 2x rolling nope it doesn't work I don't know why because this mode is ridiculous yeah I'll be my star 38 million ball 3 what do we got here when you get a hot minute here's a great resource for a rule set although it's a little over a year old didn't Bowen say he was writing a rule sheet for this for the past two years He took donations, I think, toward the Pinball Outreach Project, which we're doing the charity for this weekend. Oh, we are doing a Pinball Outreach Charity Sunday. Sunday, Sunday. Emporium, Wicker Park. Bowen took money, I think, for that to do a full ECDC rule set. But because he is, I want to say, methodical and he wants to get it right, it keeps getting delayed because the rules keep changing. He wants to always do it right. So it's been a couple years until... It's hard to write a rule book or something that keeps changing. That keeps changing. But he's on it, and there should be a full rule book out pretty soon. Oh, yeah.
    48:46
    Quick. Here we go. I need $30 million to teach Nick how to buy me some beer. And I do that by doing this.
    49:06
    I am Nick Beard! Two Beard! All right, I'm going first, man. Screw this. Yo. All right, so are we starting a tournament now? Yeah, we're starting a tournament. So two out of three, or what are we doing? Yes, Beth, two out of three. What time is it? Yep, Beth, two out of three, folks. Here we go. All right, Beth, two out of three. Nick has beaten me twice, but that's because I was being nice. Wait, are we starting over now?
    49:30
    Were those practice games? Those were practice games. One was a pretend I buy you two beers. Right. Pretend. Don't let them. Use your back eye away from the camera. That way they can't see you wink.
    49:44
    Pretend game where you owe me two beers. Yeah, ding dong. Now, this is just for pride. Two out of three. Best two out of three. Here we go. Do we play whatever rules we want? Or would you in the chat room like to play the random roulette? Oh, folks, listen to this. All right. So if you know the song you like to play, you know how to play it, you know how to blow it up. But there is a way to make this game even more random and interesting. Where you, so the flippers before you launch the ball select what song you're going to play. What someone will do is start selecting really fast with their head turned, and the other person slams on the button and picks the mode for them, and they have to figure out how to play that mode. And nobody gets to look at the actual screen that tells them. but let me give you an example. Jack's going to go first. So Jack's going to hit the button. So we're just going to do this then? I think we do it. Okay, random mode. For first ball. For first game. First game. The second game and third game we can do whatever we want. Here's how this works, folks. You see the DMD? Watch this. I can change the song.
    50:47
    Now I'm going to look away and just start... Flapping? Flapping and he's going to pick the song for me at random. I'm not going to repeat it. And I'm given the worst, the worst mode on the whole freaking machine.
    51:07
    This is truly the dumbest mode on this game. Also, I don't think our left eyeball is working. Our left eyeball is definitely not working. I've hit it three times now. Oh my god. Nick, fix this freaking lower playfield.
    51:36
    So, there's not a lot I can tell you about this mode, because nobody in their right mind picks this damn mode.
    51:43
    So, I'm just going to stick to the old tried and true ramps to get to jam and see what I can do. Oh, that's no good.
    52:11
    And then forehand. Just like that. Don't matter what mode you're in. Oh, dang. Don't matter what mode you're in, girl.
    52:20
    Jim works on everything. Now, you get to change your modes if you can see the modes. We haven't talked about them. Because we haven't done them. Well, I guess we have. We have. We just kept the same song. Wow, I'm not hitting anything.
    52:37
    We'll talk about how to switch modes here in a minute. You're not going to get that one. Are you sure? Mom?
    52:44
    All right. Keep that bell rocking. Oh, I wanted a... What is that? Warm it, you. All right, I'm cugging like a mother.
    53:04
    Don't get down. Wait, oh, shit, I just lost the two X. That would have been 10 million. All right. So my song's ready to change. Once you've completed enough shots, you can change your mode. You've got to get this tight right orbit, and it is a pain in the butt.
    53:31
    Bad mode, great song. Bad place to be. That was way too clean. Good drop. Album's lit, or doink multiball.
    53:46
    And he's in. And I should have brought a different mode into that. I screwed up. I wasn't shooting for that. You want a target mode for that.
    54:00
    All right, so now we're going to try hitting a few shots here so we can get our eye at a ball. Are you sure that just wasn't my ball coming back? Oh, yeah, you're right.
    54:15
    So I need to hit the bell, I believe. Live. Oh, man, you suck. All right, bell. I hate you. Backwards bell. Forward bell. Sideways bell.
    54:35
    My bell. I got the ill communication. My bell. Oh, no, you're out. What are you going to do? Well, now we're going to go back to jamming it out. Well, let's try to change our song. There we go. Wow, you're nailing shots today, baby. So, the right eyeball on this thing doesn't work, by the way, buddy. It does? Yeah. I hit it about, you see that?
    55:00
    All right, we'll look into that, folks, for tomorrow. It's, you know, it's a real game, folks. You get physical problems. It's physical. I did it. It works. It's a good game, man. Dude. You did it. I'm jamming the freaking eyeball, you ding-dong. See? That was direct. Sorry, bro. Now we're going to change our song to something that I want to play. Or do I random again? Oh, there's no time. No, no. Pick whatever. After the first one, you can do whatever you want. There's no time.
    55:34
    Good job. Oh, don't tilt. Come on. Love you. What the hell was that? Love you. So I'm going to hold tight for just a second. Can I play, man?
    55:47
    Wait, is this for beer? No, the last one. This was for Friday. The last one, I won the beer. So, just being a wood chopping idiot, I'm going to go back to getting jam again.
    56:07
    Wood chopping idiot. And there's jam. and there's two X's and there's Nick screaming in my ear okay oh no one went up none of them made it see those look like oh god this is everybody out infuriating everybody out That was ridiculous.
    56:44
    Folks, nothing went right on that multi-ball. Yep, nothing went right. You're into evil. You're a friend of mine.
    57:07
    Here's a six million jackpot. Wafting did not work that time Back to the grind So those are the thunderstruck targets In case you guys missed that There's the bell Too clean. Way too clean.
    57:42
    Ooh, double bonus? That's a lot of points in there, buddy. Ooh! Oh, baby. $11 million on the bonus. That was bigger than your jerk pot. All right, you ready?
    57:56
    Later. No! Thunderstruck is such good money. Oh, I missed my skill shot. Shit. Your skill shit. So again, Thunderstruck are those little blinking targets in front of the ramps there. You have to hit it while it's roving like you just did, and that lights up all your shots and start making money.
    58:32
    Thunder. Thunderstruck. See? They're unavoidable to hit, folks. I told you. Oh, God. What did I do that for?
    58:51
    Jack, are you playing some long ball? Yeah, long ball with no flipping points. Button door. And I thought, what?
    59:06
    What a... Cug-doink! Alright folks so now that I in Hell Bells I going to get a VIP pass to sort of help my multiball along here
    59:28
    And I'm going to just light up another multiball. Actually, let's see where we're at with these multiballs here.
    59:37
    Jimmy John's? Okay, let's see where we're at for something like two or... six ramps for jam five target banks I haven't cleared this single target bank or loops well I can do this that's a loop but it's also dangerous Nick's trying to sing ACDC
    60:18
    All right. Two more. That wasn't what I wanted, but I'll take it. One more. I tried to quickly on the fly do that, and it doesn't seem that feasible.
    60:48
    Is that a backhand? Yeah, that did not work. For the ramp or the orbit? For the orbit, on the fly. We might just go jammy. Oh, God. You tense up so much when you make that shot.
    61:03
    The old butt clench. Well, I got jam ready. Brad Chmielewski. Brad! Thanks for coming, buddy. We're going to get it. Actually, we're going to get you one of these days. You're going to be in here. Room. Come on, Ray. You're going to show us how to do this shit.
    61:25
    So Nick is in Thunderstruck. I'm in Thunderstruck. I don't think I got much. Maybe I got some red. Damn sandwich. I got two reds.
    61:36
    Whoa. Oh, and he nailed it. Okay. Two free VIP. Well, I forgot my first one, so that helps. So that sort of balances out. That was a super clean in lane.
    61:49
    No one likes those. Jan's lit. And he shoots just a little late. Clean. And he's begging for a clean ball. And he makes the same shot again.
    62:11
    Bad, bad robot. What's up? Welcome back. Bad, bad. Right. My man with the backhand. Jam, jam-a-lam-a.
    62:24
    Little chopsticks to save the day. Folks, you'll hear from a lot of pros that one of the cardinal rules of pinball is never flip both flippers at the same time. But, and we'll even say it, but sometimes it's just unavoidable.
    62:44
    You've got to do it to save your hide. Pills! Man, shook me would have been nice right there. And he uses his VIP passes to hit the last shot, and it brings his multiball back to life.
    63:08
    Like the ultimate ding-dong. Whoa! You're getting some sexy chopsticks there, bud. Beautiful, beautiful catch.
    63:29
    His 2X is gone. His spirits are low. Two loops for a tour. there's one and you get another yes he can two or multi ball is lit folks and two or what you want to focus on outside of like your usual mode shots is the loops give you all your money the hand cramp half ramp hand cramp 13 million bonus holy frick yes you did we're going to stay in Hillsville I'm not using it appropriately but we'll get this going Hills Hillsville oh Jam's ready mom Jake's burping in my ear Oh nice shot Doing some drop catches
    65:02
    That'll come back I don't need love. I just need these balls to calm the frick down. Okay, so it works.
    65:29
    Oh, boy. I almost had a Lazarus there. Train him. I never drain. Oh, baby. Big money guy. Big money buddy.
    66:00
    So, man, I'm just collecting JTs like they're my job. That would have been nice to have it doubled, but I was out of VIP passes.
    66:14
    That should be two or. So if this comes down clean. Which it is not doing. Clean yourself. Clean, please. Come down clean. I love you. I love you. I love you. I've always loved you. You're my favorite. Come on, baby.
    66:43
    That felt good. So now I want to rock some loops. And that gave me my edible right away. Yeah, that was weird.
    67:19
    Get the freaking war machine shot, you ding-dong. Ah, damn. Couldn't build it up in time. The long ball, baby. Good fucking ball. All right.
    67:54
    Yo, Jack Danger might have a new favorite mode. I don't understand it, but the points just sort of come out of nowhere. Oh, man.
    68:11
    What's the thing to keep in mind? I have the ability to perhaps get this mode in my multiball if I pick the right song. Right. Well, here's the deal. Since Tour is a loop shot, would you want to go for the loop mode, which is War Machine? No, because War Machine is so high in the ranking of songs. It's like the new... You won't get your song jackpot very soon. I think what I'm actually going to do is pick something like Rock Ain't a Bad Place. Mm-hmm. Or whatever this one is. Let There Be Rock. Let There Be Rock, thank you. Or not get it at all, I guess. Never mind. Wow, it didn't... It just rocketed up there and jumped out. All right, so I guess we're Thunderstruck.
    68:57
    By the way, folks, backhanding the right loop is not a thing. Unless it's some miracle, accidental, cug nonsense.
    69:16
    Tour de pat. So he's got to hit some shots to get that add-a-ball going. That was not enough. That was really not enough.
    69:48
    All right. Excuse me. Oh, my God. Grand champ. Wait, does that say grand champ? It does. Again? Yeah, no, I know you don't have your glasses on, but it says Grand Champ right there.
    70:01
    Grand... Grandma... Pan. Champagne. Grandma Champagne. Nice game. Thanks, brother. Good game, bro. Alright, so I'm going to choose as the loser to go second. Yeah.
    70:17
    We're going to play the next two games whatever mode we want. Legit. Okay. And good luck. Man, I'm telling you. That's a good score. That felt like a good score.
    70:28
    Here we go. Let's go, baby. Welcome back. Meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow. I hate fads, but not in pinball.
    70:43
    Not when I'm with it. They're a fad for a reason. We could also, like, agree on a mode after this. That you can't play? Oh, okay, yeah, yeah, yeah. I just got reamed. He's got ding-dongs. That's the old official ding-dong.
    71:12
    Come on, hippie. So we turned the heat on in here, and now I'm super warm. Oh, that did not want to go through.
    71:30
    Hit me. Ring the bell. No SDTM for old Nick here. What up, dude? Kemscap, thanks for coming. We're trying to explain to the best of our ability how to play ECDC. It's an impossible game to just lay the rules out, so we're trying to show you what we know and how to get a high score. Oh, it's Josh from Missouri! I just put up GC on this thing, man, you missed it. Ah, the bell.
    72:29
    Goodbye, multiball. Thanks. I did well on that, multiball. Steve Ritchie's yelling at you. up and down his spine.
    72:50
    Frick. Nick is coming for it, man. Did you hit it and it didn't go? He just felt it out. Oh, the cut.
    73:15
    Cugtown's family bus. A little baby flip. Keep it alive. You got me ringing. Hals bow. See, you even do my kick when I get it up around.
    73:40
    Shenanigans. Kim, we did not get to play the Big Lebowski, but we were around it a lot while it was being played, and it looked like a lot of fun. The music alone is fantastic on that game.
    74:02
    Nick's got jam, and he's going to try to backhand it. And he makes it. Bob Twitchell is not coming in tonight. Or if he is, he didn't tell me and he's about to surprise us.
    74:30
    Oh, man, come on. The balls are everywhere. Oh! Hells bells. Well, now what are you going to do, buddy? You're sort of just... I'm a little in jail here. I got a jam. I feel like I'm close to album. That's my second jam, right? Two more. Yeah, second jam. So if you hit that D and then knock down all the TNT, you have album multiple already. I'm not going to actively go for album because those shots are so crazy. Yeah, it's dangerous. But I'm going to go towards jam. Yep. Knowing I'm going to screw up. And then eventually it's going to get around. It'll dunk around and, yeah, perfect. Tongo and Whitewater made a baby, and that's what the Big Lebowski is.
    75:31
    Oh, that came back like a rocket. Ah, one more lap travel. Sweet. All right, let's make up what we've done here, because I'm not in a good place.
    75:49
    Like our VIP. Throw the ball in the garbage. There we go. Do the old backhand-a-roni. Let's... Forehand-a-roni. No, I'm like... I can backhand. You're cugging up.
    76:14
    Live. Call my mom. I need a ride home. Woo. Oh, nice. I got cocky. I got fucking cocky. No.
    76:41
    I ain't no Babe Ruth. I got cocky. Sorry, folks. I need my drink. All right, so I'm going to change modes.
    76:54
    I am close to a jackpot. I'm one target away from album. I'm just going to leave it. If it lets me. Leave it if it lets me.
    77:07
    And I could not get my VIP again. Yeah, Cam, for sure. Yeah, the game looked great, the music was awesome, but the machine kept breaking a lot, but it's still in alpha, so there's not much you can expect.
    77:31
    But it looks like it's going to be incredible. Smoking. Oh, yeah! To the bell. To the drain. All right.
    77:53
    I'm going. All right. I'm going to do something I shouldn't do, which is go for a TNT target or stay. Right.
    78:03
    So he's one target bank away from getting Album, and one of his TNT targets is down. Now, if he knocks the other two down, that's another bank that he got down, and Album will light up. For him to shoot the right ramp and spare elbow multiball. But hitting those is ridiculous. I'm going to continue on my way of hitting ramps until I doink and do it. Yeah, because you'll light up jam, if anything. Oh, boy.
    78:29
    You're in the evil, yo. Please. Danger needs food badly. Okay, here's another one. Oh, oh. And he's got it, folks. He's just got to scoot it up the right ramp, which he's going to backhand.
    78:54
    Oh, God. And drain. But, oh, and tilt. That was the breakdancing's fault, I think. Y'all come back now. Y'all come back now, you hear? So, I have jam lit. Well, okay, here's the deal. Nick is ahead of me in points.
    79:12
    And the multiball is going to wait for him. When he starts up again, it's there. He just has to hit the right ramp and he gets to call it. So I have to put up a disgusting lead right now. And I've only got four million points.
    79:29
    Four million? Green flame? All right, we're just going to backhand this. Nope, going to call my mom because I'm in trouble.
    79:48
    And hit it. So we're going to forehand it. Nope, let's try something else. What? Why am I missing so much?
    80:00
    Yeah, there's no other. If it's not forehand or backhand, it's take the glass off and just feed the ball up the rim.
    80:07
    So that's a win for Jack and a win for Nick. I'm going to go for this album, but I'm going to bring in a... And Nick's going to waste our time. I'm going to bring in a mug here.
    80:18
    Kill it, bud. Oh, solid gold. Alright, well, since I lost, Nick, you get to go first. Alright. We are one to one. One to one. Yep. The next person to win... Right? Is that how it's going to go? The next person to win, wins. The next winner wins. If you win, you win.
    80:40
    If I win... If you win, you win. Right, and if you win, you win. If I win, I win. Sure. Thanks, Obama.
    80:48
    No, there's no other way. There is no other way. It's like you shoot it or you don't. You win or you don't. Yeah, healthcare, man. It's hard. It's like... I hope you're ready. All right, here we go.
    81:10
    Nick shoots for the bell catches the ball and proceeds to combo no shot it a little too early now he's playing with his food
    81:35
    whoa you got a sweet spinner yep alright Oh. His coach can't be happy about that one. You getting another beer?
    81:50
    Leave me out of the next beer. I'm on my motorcycle. Don't lose. I never lose. Except for that game I just lost.
    82:07
    And you know what? To stay true to myself, I'm going to play Thunderstruck. It's my favorite mode. The song's great. The mode's great. I'm playing Thunderstruck. Keeping it real.
    82:24
    And keeping it real. About as real as one could keep something is how real and human you are. Nice bell. Nice train.
    82:41
    So I wanted not... Free bell. So one more bell... Man, look at that thing swing. Yeah, one more bell hit and I have 2x. So I'm going to start lighting up jam. Because by the time jam's lit, the bell will calm the hell down. One hit will give me my 2x. Yep. Straight from the multiball sky, we'll be good.
    83:14
    Oh, the J.D. ball. J.D. is it? Um, so... Two-ball game, my friend. Two-ball game. Because the first ball was trashed. I have one VIP pad. I have four rounds to go. As far as criminology is concerned, folks, What happened to both of us there was we both had a house fall.
    83:39
    A house fall, I think, refers to shitty bowling balls that you get from the bowling alley instead of bringing your own. Oh, you got a belly? And they're garbage, and when you throw them, they always mess you up. House fall. I got a house fall. Oh, man. It's like, yeah, the bowling ball you don't bring. Right. House fall. Right? I don't know. I can't think of a better way. I just came up with that. Why does everyone make the bell shot from the cannon look so easy?
    84:07
    You know a tradition, it takes a little practice, but seriously, after like 20 tries, you'll have that thing dialed in. It's really not that bad. It looks a lot tighter than it is.
    84:24
    Great. Thanks, Nick. Tradition, using the cannon to shoot the jackpot right away for that one million versus anything else puts you in a lot more trouble than any other shot. Because it starts a really disgusting side to side that will feed right into the slingshot and ultimately right down the drain.
    85:00
    So if you don't feel comfortable shooting the bell, shoot like the war machine, the left loop. Shoot it right up that. Just as safe, gets it right up into the pops, brings it right back down.
    85:18
    Arts. Nick is killing it. Solid drain. Call it half a round. Yep. I could add double song jackpot. Song jackpot, yep.
    85:39
    Which is why I'm a little angry. And that's why he slapped the game like a sore loser. But he's not losing. Am I winning? Get out of my way. Yeah, he's freaking winning.
    85:51
    He's winning, folks. No, I love you, though. You're going to do really well on this ball. You did really well. Look at that. You got 36 in the end. What was that, 38, 37? No, I hope you win. I'll never win.
    86:03
    Oh, I did my tail. Oh, dear. Floncia. Wait, what does floncia mean? Like eat? It's Italian for... I think I saw it on an Olive Garden ad. No, that's pasta italiano. Pasta-bilities. The pasta-bilities are in my head. Hospitaliano.
    86:32
    Hospitaliano. Oh, man. So, folks, we went to Red Lobster and had never-ending shrimp. And I got to tell you, the tummy troubles I had after that were unbelievable.
    86:47
    I had zero tummy troubles, but I had a lot of just mental regret. It was too much garlic butter for me to deal with. So there's my edible.
    87:04
    There we go. Say it loud. One door. There was no... I got robbed. I got robbed again. I hit that bill twice.
    87:24
    Oh, I got robbed three times. Well, folks, knowing myself, I'm just going to get back to jamming. There you go.
    87:39
    Love you. Don't love that. That was a nice little stay in there. Thank you, brother. There you go. A few more, buddy.
    87:51
    Darn, that hurt. Fantastic. Honey! That's all good. I'm not good with the forehands on the fly. Scampi remorse. Yeah, we had some serious scampi remorse. I thought I did smart by switching to the breaded. Oh, swancha is Irish for cheers. Swancha. Prost. Naftrovia. I'm going to see what we're supposed to do here.
    88:38
    We got a bit of a worm burner on our hands, folks. I got no, I got nothing. There's one bell hit. And a whole lot of shooting everything. eight three eight oh you have nothing
    88:56
    can be real more you gonna get another here to you want Ready two Keep held Hurls hurls There you go.
    89:12
    That was the action. All you do want. You know, there's something we also can't show is the jukebox in the back that shows what modes you've completed as far as the shots are concerned.
    89:28
    Power wave. Scampi remorse. Hey, that's my punk band. Thanks, everybody. That was Scampi remorse. Up next,
    89:45
    Scampi remorse. Folks, by the way, Blind Robin has become the first bar in Chicago, actually the first location in Chicago, to have a walking dead on site. Go to Blind Robin, blow that thing up. It's going to be nuts.
    90:08
    Actually, we're going there tonight. First two rounds, whoever shows up, first two rounds on Jack the Injured. Yeah, come drink. On me. I'm rich.
    90:22
    All right, you need $10 million, sir, to win. You need less than $10 million for me to win. No! It shows four moi. What do you got? What's those?
    90:38
    That's not what I wanted. In the multi-ball. It's not looking good for me right now. It's not looking good for Nick. Also, the 2X is rolling. Also, 2X is rolling. Also, he's hitting his shots.
    90:52
    Like a champion. And doublers. And again. All day. And he's already winning. know all days any amount of time you want oh mom you know while Jack finishes out his awesome win I'd like you guys to choose a song that we haven't played yet that we should both play to uh kind of learn some of the rules for us the first person in the chat that picked a song we haven't played yet, we will play that game. In fact, the first two people that pick songs... We'll play those two songs. We will play those two songs. I will play the first one, and Jack will play the second one.
    91:45
    So go ahead in the chat, tell us what songs you want to see. Again, all the rules are different. And we'll play them while Jack plays. Oh, who gets the first one? You? ACDC TNT, baby. I got TNT.
    92:05
    All right, we have album ready. And extra ball. Meow, meow, meow. Oh, nice. We have played Hellfell. We've played Thunderstruck. And we've played...
    92:26
    Nice. Nope. Salad Tilt! Where's our one, oh, the Helly in a Bad Place to Be week? Oh, God, never that ever. Well, you won't play those. Um, for those about to rock is mine. All right. So we're playing, Nick is playing TNT, and I'm playing for those about to rock. Good luck, sir. Why the frick? So you won. Oh, I'm the one with the cannon. You won. Yes, so I won. No, I won everything.
    92:53
    I won the beer round. Yeah. You won that round. I won the ball scratching ride. We'll see how this goes. All right. Um, for you folks that don't know, for those about to rock is a mode that just consistently feeds the cannon. And it is the most dangerous mode to play in this whole stupid game. And TNT is one of the other dangerous modes because the main three, the main shot is right up the middle. Right over the train. Where it trains like crazy. In fact, you're going to see me ignore this mode altogether until I get into multiball.
    93:28
    You'll play it, but you won't actively play it. I'm not actively going for TNT targets at all until I hit multi-ball, and then I'm going to go for it. Here we go.
    93:40
    Good luck, champ. I'm champ. Good luck, champ. Skill shot to the VIP. I do like the yellow that comes with TNT, though. It's pretty. You can usually get a T-Bell Nope, just the bell Sometimes you'll find yourself hitting that T As you make your way up to the bell from the cannon But that was just a really clean hit to the bell And he's going for jam right away
    94:22
    Ah, fuck You're on fire, dude. Oh, live. Super Steve Ritchie. Do you folks know what Steve Ritchie's middle name is? I think it starts with an S.
    94:44
    So he's going to try to backhand it, and he's going to successfully backhand it. Another bell shot. And now if there is any time to start hitting TNT targets, it's during the multiball.
    95:01
    So once he's completed those, there's a target behind it that brings them all back up again. Which he hit.
    95:09
    So he has a T left. Steve Steven Ritchie. Nice straight, solid tilt. So, I get what, like 45 minutes to wait for this? Well, I got 12 million. Ball one. Uh, folks, if you're... This wait is brought to you by Miller Lite Classic. Get in the light. Auto light. Wow, that looks good. Wait, hold on. I got two iPhones on me, folks. Whoa, you're balling. Um So wait What do I have to play? Lion Man Steve Lion Man Ritchie Yeah So I have to play For those about to rock Alright Dude this mode This mode is so Dangerous This mode is so dangerous You've seen Jack play the ramps Where he's looped ramps Over and over and over again I can't do that anymore He cannot do that in this mode Because every ramp Feeds the cannon Yep which leads to a jackpot, a half a million dollar jackpot on the target. And it moves, too. The jackpot moves. So it'll be the A or the D or the C or the other C or the lightning bolt. Yeah. And my constant backhanding to get to jam really quick is no longer a thing because of this mode. So I have to figure something else out. Another weird thing about this mode is it's really hard to light your fire lanes. So there's F-I-R-E in your in and out lanes right here. Yep. You can control those with your flipper to move them. And generally, it's because they're feeding into the in lanes that you can light them up so quick, but I'm not going to get any of that. Yeah, so his only in lanes to light his super jackpot or his song jackpot are just accidental fall-ins, or if he wants to try to shack a lane or something like that. Which you will not see me do when there's, wait, is there anything on the line? There's nothing on the line. I will hug you if you win, and you will hug me if I win. Oh, gross. All right, for those about to rock.
    97:16
    The hugs are on the line, folks. Get ready for some sexy cannon action. Back hand. Uh-oh. Good shot. Oh, that slap felt so good.
    97:33
    Straight to the cannon. Now, I can start collecting these, or I can get my bell. But I'll just start working the mode to show you guys. And I missed the very first thing. I blew it. Thanks, Steve. See, it just keeps... Hit it.
    97:52
    There you go. But here's what happens. It lights a shot on the play field with a weird pink color. And that shot is worth, I believe, $750,000 when you hit it. That's a lot. So for every time I successfully hit a target that it's lighting, it lights up one of those. And if I hit that, that's where some cast. But the bell hits a little weird, so I'm going to keep going.
    98:23
    Another cannon? For freaking ever. So C is what I want. Next case, and that's a tilt. Thank you, guys. Thanks for that move. That's awesome. So, I... Do I get to change my mode? No. Play it all through. Play it through.
    98:46
    Just think of Steve Lionman, Richie. What he would do. Lionman. I think it's Lyman, Lyman, Chief. Lyman, Lionman, Chief. Lyman, Lyman, Chief.
    98:58
    Lyman, Lyman, Lionman. Oh, oh, oh. Super Panda, get over here. Play this shit. All right, so I need... Can I say that?
    99:15
    I'm Jack Danger. This is Nick Campbell. We're Dead Slips. Thanks for coming, folks. We're just showing you guys a little something on ACDC. We'll be playing this all week long. Different guests showing and explaining what they're doing. Hopefully, we'll teach you a little something on how to blow this game up. Right now, we're just messing around.
    99:37
    Color TV screen. It's 12-hour drive on my way. So that's two dangers and a drain. And a tummy rub from Nick. Here we go. For those about to rock. God, I just want to, like, loop it out instead of using ramps. You don't have to hit it. I've been ignoring.
    100:04
    The ramps are... That's part of the mode, right? Ramps are kind of my thing. But that's part of the mode. It's like ignoring the mode if it's a shitty mode. Well, we have two more for jam. I got an idea. No, I'm going to light up 2X with this mode. Oh, okay.
    100:25
    There you go. 2X all day, baby. Okay. This affords me a lot of really clean bell shots. And jam is lit. So this is going to light up my... Well... Okay, I thought about that too much. But now you get it. Now I get my... Now your cannon will be down. You son of a... You'll get two eggs. Son of a... Hold on. Get in here. Oh, baby. You piece of shipwreck. Is it going to keep loading my cannon too? No, I mean, it's going to keep loading my cannon for my mode.
    101:12
    Thanks for the jam. That was about the most incredible multiball I've ever had. That's called a drop threat.
    101:26
    That's called a fucking power doing. Wow, super cut. All right, so we'll get 2x and then start collecting these jackpots.
    101:51
    So I have 2x running, so everything I shoot now is double. How much was that? Double. Double and a half for that.
    102:09
    A is the most dangerous one. Alright, I think I figured something out on this mode. Now you've got 2x going again. Yep.
    102:24
    He is forever. Forever. This is working out pretty well. I got both of those on a 2x. That's worth a mil six.
    102:49
    We'll hit the bell and keep it going. Album's lit. Actually, actually, wait a second. This mode's sort of making sense.
    103:01
    Because now you can do this forever and you get three X's. Every Viagra target. It also fades up. Every single target fades up.
    103:15
    Was that a, that was a bell hit, huh? Three X's, bro. Yep. All right, somebody do something. Okay, there's my edible.
    103:30
    Let's feed a cannon here. Nope, let's feed anything I love you. No! JD that ball. That bell hit was a little too late.
    103:47
    But we can get more. All right, let's get that bell lit up again. I'm enjoying this. I have to say. What's going on? Expo Panda was super fun, super draining, super intoxicating.
    104:25
    Wait, what am I doing? What am I doing? I got nervous. I wasn't sure what to shoot for.
    104:41
    Alright, so jam is lit, folks. That's about a mil for that shot. Hit our bell. We got two X running again.
    104:54
    That didn't do anything. Yep. Oh, long ball danger. Keep them coming back, folks. How much was that jackpot for?
    105:32
    Two jackpots. Too bad it's impossible to get to fire lanes with this freaking motor. I wasn't lit.
    106:00
    I hit nothing. The lightning bolt wasn't lit, so the jackpot wasn't there. Oh, baby. Oh, I looked away.
    106:21
    Was that ball two? Or ball three? Fires, I waste my VIPs. Whew. Super draining. This snobbery. Thanks for coming. I have a lot of work to do.
    106:38
    You were up sitting. Yeah, no kidding. Six rants, six loops. Good grief. That is a rough mode. Oh, man, I got nothing. Here, folks. TMT is bullshit.
    106:52
    Steering your eyes. Oi, oi. Aw, you lost. If you just tilted my ball, which you did, nah. Your ball's fine. Good job, buddy. Go ahead and play. You're a champ. We'll just launch this for you. All right, let's see what we can do with this mode.
    107:16
    Now that I've sort of figured out the inner working game there. Should we do another random mode? Do we have time?
    107:25
    Do we have the time for it? Well, right after this we're going to play one more. We can. Okay.
    107:40
    Mostly because if I lose I just have to play again. If you guys want to take two more modes that we haven't played, the first one I'll play, the second one you'll play, then we'll play one more game.
    107:58
    Oh, big one. So first new mode in the chat, I will play. Second new mode, Jack will play. Yeah. Ooh.
    108:11
    That looks good. This feels good. Hold on. I think we're onto something here. Big money. Do that. This is terrible.
    108:27
    I think we're... Dude, that's some big money, man. Is this your new mode? No, this shit is dangerous, man. It's paying out, but I'd never play this in real life.
    108:42
    Now I should have used that to go for the bell. Gotcha. Shit, this is paying out. Oh, my God. Oh, dude. Just hitting this was giving me two million.
    109:12
    Don't mind if I do. Thanks for extending. Crack Danger. Let's it be rock for those about to rock. Nobody's told us what mode, so let's play Random Mode. Okay, we'll play one more random, and then we're going to call it, folks. Meet us at Blind Robin. We're going to play The Walking Dead.
    109:37
    Bye-bye. Fuck me. that's the life of the random I didn't even look when I hit the button when I hit the butt swan I made sure to charge the battery so they didn't go out during the stream I had a killer ball on fishtails last week and the audio went out
    110:09
    Hand cramp. Oh, nice save. Solid tilt. We're beefing right now, folks. You're only young. Alright. Solid shot.
    110:30
    Solid drain. No, why would you hit that? Well, it gives you a balance. Right. You don't do that? No, I have to do that.
    110:41
    Oh, sorry. Yeah! Oh, God, the worst. This mode used to be the mode, folks. It no longer is the mode.
    110:58
    Please take it on a one-way ride. Stalters. Staltex! Salty. Well, I can't complete the face. Yeah.
    111:26
    Just the left eyeball. See? Oh, you got it. You got it. Oh, God. Hit it. Hey, I made some points. Yes.
    111:41
    Oh, boy. Oh, that felt good. Oh, boy. Oh, I got to get it out. That was good. That was good looking. Oh, and then I missed my bell.
    112:12
    I was hoping to get another on the fly bell shot there. All right, nothing's happening right now, folks.
    112:19
    So we are dinging and donging here. Nothing's happening. I haven't hit... No shots have been made. Well, one maybe.
    112:36
    All the half-brams. All the half-brams, folks. They're all down here, folks. One, two, three, four. All right.
    112:52
    All right, so we're just going to keep feeding that loop for some reason. All right. This is a good place. Good place to be.
    113:06
    Got the bell. So I just need the right orbit. Which I'm not finding. Woo! I said... Let me get this. I don't need more. Oh, I spent more than one, I'm assuming.
    113:39
    And I'm going down. Man, I'm hitting zero things. Oh, I got it behind the bell. Oh. Oh, not insane. Good save. Good start. Here we go.
    114:15
    If you want it all the way up, you're not going to do it. Fuck me. God damn it. That's frustrating. All right. An ACDC cover. Pitch perfect. Oh, I'm sorry if I'm singing too loud, folks. I'm on the road. It's too much. It's too much to not sing on this game.
    114:37
    All right, what am I saying? I got nothing. I got it beforehand. I'm on a highway to hell. Highway to hell. There's this highway, and it goes to hell.
    114:50
    Spoo your highway directly into hell. Fire! Solid. Not clean enough. So, folks, Nick has had two house falls so far with no ball saves.
    115:23
    Where are you going to go? Let's do some Rosie. Ooh, Rosie. I like Rosie. So, Rosie's all about hitting everything. That's the best explanation I can give you.
    115:34
    Uh-oh. Wait, why the flipper stuff? I just shook the crap out of that. Blue Continental. You can plunge with whatever you want. Sometimes the auto plunge isn't strong enough, then you want to plunge with the plunger. Sometimes plunging with the plunger is too strong, and it won't go into the scoop back there, and then you can't change your song. So you just have to feel it out.
    116:08
    Feel it out. Some hippie ding-dong shit right there. Oh, you want me to play while you're playing? All right. Nick brought in a children's drum kit.
    116:34
    What are you going to do, champ? Well, I'm glad you asked, Jack. I'm going to go for the skill shot first. The regular skill shot? Regular skill shot. It's nice and safe. Free VIP pass. Perfect. I'm going to go directly for rants. Right for the rants. Multi-ball. Yep. So you're going for jam multi-ball is what you're doing. I think I need three or four rants to get to jam. Beautiful. And then once I'm in there, I can make some other decisions. Make some decisions. On the fly. Feeling them beers.
    117:06
    Yep. You're not drinking while playing pinball. You're not playing pinball. Just kidding. Drinking is whatever. I love you.
    117:20
    Everyone's great. Do what you feel. Oh, golly. Ooh, solid gold. That was a beautiful save with one danger.
    117:31
    That was incredible, man. Like a hurricane. Three more hits. One. No more hits. Jack Danger takes it.
    117:49
    All right, folks. All right. I'll see you at Emporium. No, wait. Where are we going? Ladies and gentlemen, thanks again for coming. This is just the first day of a week-long ACDC battle. Tonight, if you're in Chicago and you've got nothing going on, who cares if you have something going on, come to Blind Robin. It's on Western and something, and they will have a Walking Dead there, and that will be the first playable Walking Dead in the city of Chicago. Wait, no, Logan's had one.
    118:27
    Oh, well, Gavin lied to me. It will be a playable Walking Dead in the city of Chicago. It'll be great. I love you all. Thanks so much for coming, folks.
    118:38
    And see you tomorrow. Bye. Boop, boop, boop, boop, boop. That'll be the first one that made you money. Playing H-E-D-C.
