Okay, we are good. Now, welcome back, ladies and gentlemen, to the DPO Expo 2018. DPO meaning Dutch Pinball Open. We are currently watching the Youth Tournament. It's very dramatic looking in here, which is kind of hilarious.
0:23
The four-player game going on on Iron Maiden is the group of children all the way in the back. Let's get a closer look at some of the scores here so we can see what's actually going on.
0:38
All right, so player one is sitting at about $14.9 million. Player two is kicking off here. Thank you for telling him to refresh. I think I should tweet that we are live right now. I will be giving him a holler.
0:53
So these are all the kids that qualified earlier today. You may have seen a tweet that I sent out that said that this battle was going down. But we have two battles going on currently. There's a four-player game going on on Deadpool here. And it looks like some older kids are the ones on the Iron Maiden machine right now.
1:15
What time is it there? It is currently 8. No. I don't have my phone on me, so I have no idea. All right. I'm going to grab my phone and tweet out that we are live. So give me a second.
Congogame

Addams Familygame
1:48
3.16 p.m., thank you, server. So player three is up. Player 2 ended with about 562,000 points. Not an incredible first ball, but again, this isn't only ball one. Player 1 still sitting in the lead with 14.9 million. The young man playing right now, currently sitting at 3.6 inside of Clyde of Icarus.
2:12
Going after some mummy here. I'm going to take a photo real quick. Give me a second. Thank you. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
2:58
That bull is already almost 3-4, so they go top, and the last one is getting a little bit taller. Cool. Yeah, I'm just going to do some commentary on... I've been doing some commentary on Iron Maiden right here, but once we get this out, we'll be good to go. Just focus on... You got it, brother.
3:24
All right, here we go, folks. Thank you for tuning in. We are again live at the Dutch Pinball Open in the youth finals.
3:42
You can see the group of older children in the back. That is everyone playing on Iron Maiden right now. There's only three machines here on deck for the people to play. So my board rusted. There is Adam's Families out in the hall, but in here we've got a Congo, a Deadpool, and an Iron Maiden. This is for the youth tournament. I'm not sure what they're bringing in for the main tournament, but that's where we're sitting right now for the kids.
4:09
All right, we're back on player one. This young lady is just cooking everyone's goose right now. She's got her pots going. So let's see, she's got locks ready and mummy, there you go.
4:23
She knows what she's doing. She's got mummy multiball going already. She may have wanted to bring a moat into that, but, you know, in this circumstance looking at the points on the board right now, take the points where you can get them because she is just taking it home. She is the only female up here of the eight children that are up here battling currently. She's the only female. And she is Chicken Butt. Good on her.
4:55
My apologies for names. They are a little hard to pronounce. This almost looks like an art film. It's like a void of black behind them. It's kind of cool looking, actually. Kind of dig it. I'm going to angle the camera down a little bit to get the youngsters here.
5:31
That ugly pole with all the wires on it, that's my handiwork. Everything's taped because I'm a professional. It's like a Bob Ross painting studio. It's crazy how dark it is.
5:41
All right, so she's still kicking it. 24 million. She's got her locks lit. Those are the green arrows on the far right orbit and the middle orbit there. And she nails a lock and a hollowed be-lay name. And that's her multiball. This is huge. This is a multiball going into hollowed.
6:03
She can make a lot of money here, like a lot of money. Good old duct tape. It's actually paper tape so that it comes off later.
6:14
Now everything that is blue is a jackpot for her multi-ball, and subsequently a lot of her shots are lit for the mode that she's into. If she could shoot straight up the middle, she's got a beautiful shot. 3X cannon award, 1.5. You can see in the scoreboard right now, she's sitting at 47 million, and the closest to her right now is about 10.
6:38
She's doing pretty well. She's doing pretty well for herself. 2X play field is currently rolling. Now she gets to make all the cash. That ball will be coming back.
6:52
It should have come back. Oh, what a save. What a save. Two in a row. Get up there. Shoot that middle shot.
7:02
Come on. You got that 2X rolling. There's so much money up that middle ramp. Wow, she nailed that freaking ramp shot. I can't even choose to shoot a ramp shot like that.
7:20
She's not using that upper flipper. And respectfully so, because there wasn't really anything for her to shoot. My instincts make me want to just shoot that all day.
7:29
Sarcophagus on. So she needs four more white arrows on the playfield. three more white arrows and start her next mode.
7:41
Folks, thank you again for tuning in. If you can hear me, let me know. Tell me how everything looks.
7:48
The dramatic. I could probably increase the quality of the player cam a little bit. I'm afraid to kill the stream, though.
7:58
Sounds and looks good. Thank you. We can add a little meat to the... You know what, we're just going to leave it. Thank you, Puffin Fargo.
8:13
There was a request not to put an external light, no matter how unobtrusive, on the game, so we're going to leave that alone.
8:23
All right, so player one, she ended with 74 million points. Player two, now starting off on ball two, setting up at 2.7. Not a lot of progress on Mummy. none of the locks lit. Needs one more shot to get a mode lit. That should be it. So shooting up top will start Rime of the Ancient Mariner it looks like on the playfield. So right up the middle we'll get that mode started. Ooh it just barely missed the switch. Some dangerous pop bumper action here. Almost a suicide flip. Oh, didn't quite make it up again, but he did get a mummy hit.
9:13
Yeah, painter's tape is like blue tape that comes off really well. Sorry. Alright, some more mummy action, knocking down some drop targets. Great little on-the-fly tip catch.
9:29
Some orbit. Alright, his mummy is ready. I would not take that. I would go start your mode first. And he starts my Mule to Ball. Still good. Like I said, points are points when it comes to what's going on the play field or on the scoreboard as far as points are concerned.
9:50
Get on up there, buddy. You got this. So up the middle, some good points. Just follow those yellow arrows. if you can get the left ramp and the right ramp in this mode, it will add a ball to your multi-ball.
10:06
So hitting both of those ramps would be, oh, and he just half-ramps it. Take your points where you can, bud. But, yeah, if he can manage that left ramp and that right ramp, he's going to have an added ball saver and a ball thrown into play. But that is not going to be the case on this ball. so he's going to want to shoot directly at the middle to hopefully get his mode going. Prime of the Ancient Mariner can be a pretty lucrative mode, and that'll do it. So now it's going to drop the ball, and he's going to need to get up that center ramp ASAP because it will be a countdown for points. Oh, and a very unfortunate drain there.
10:46
Overall, good climb, good climb. Considering that he started that ball at 500,000 points, coming in at 21, not too bad. All right. Let's see what Player 3 has. Starting off at $10 million. He's got only one letter on Eddie. He's going to have to hit several more. Oh, starts his mummy. That seems to be the approach right now. Now, I did hear one of the young men coaching the rest of the kids on this approach, just telling them to start mummy, and it seems like they all took his advice.
11:25
So just get in there, start mummy, always be in multiball, ladies and gentlemen. What's cool is I'm actually standing on a stage in front of a whole auditorium full of people, and what they're playing is being broadcast behind us onto a giant projected, I don't know, curtain? It's pretty sweet. So the four gentlemen here that were just playing on Deadpool need to be careful not to accidentally hit that action button. Gosh. Action button starting a game is such a tricky thing. Is there any way I can donate to these kids? I'll just start swearing. Then you can give me the money. There you go. All right. He has two more shots. All right, he has two more shots to get his mode lit. Let's see what he can do. Get up there.
12:30
Beautiful shot, beautiful shot. All right, one more shot and then up the middle and he should have his mode. Looks like Hallowed Be Thy Name is the mode that is currently lit.
12:40
Hallowed Be Thy Name. He got it. So how would be thy name is an interesting mode. You have to shoot a lit shot, and then I believe shoot a spinner. Is that how it works? I'd have to double-check my references there. So it's whatever's orange, and then it'll light. Oh, an unfortunate drain. It looked like he was trying to set up his 2x play field there. Did not quite come together, but that 2x will be waiting for him on his next ball. Again, good climb, 23. Holds strong in second place. player four coming in at 4.2 million great little loops there and wasn't even holding up the flipper so props to the cops dude did I just say props to the cops?
13:42
7.6 million. He needs two more shots to get his mode lit. Locks up a ball there. That's very important.
14:02
Trying to send out a Facebook message about us being live. Get everyone in here. His legs are going crazy. You know what? I'm right there, you know?
14:19
I get them crazy legs. Oh, man, these kids better back up. He's going to start swinging on them with his legs.
14:31
Yeah, it's so dark up here. I really want to increase the... So, the camera obviously froze. I'm fixing it right now.
14:48
Hopefully this doesn't cause everything to flicker out of control. Alright, that got a little bit of quality out of it. Not much.
15:10
Boom! I'm going to give it a touch of brightness, a touch of contrast, sharpen it up. I think it's fine. The lighting is dramatic. It's overly dramatic.
15:24
There we go. We got some quality out of it. We're good. Listen, we're on stage. It's supposed to be dramatic. So he's got three balls crept up here, so this young man knows what he's doing. Oh, great save, great save He's only got three jackpots left Make that two Before he starts getting his crazy jackpots So, shooting up the middle Oh, ooh Come something to nothing that quick He had his 2x running He climbed to 51 million Still not enough to take the lead But good enough for second place so far So, our current leader throughout this entire battle Player 1, she is prepped and ready to go. Stick me up to a machine before the bonus is done counting down. Kind of sketches me out a little bit. But here she goes. Let's see if she can put up a big enough lead here no one is going to touch her. Steve Nick, the young lady playing currently, is the only female that has been up on this stage.
16:34
Get control, bud. You got this. She, uh... She's going to take it down. Trap it up, trap it up, trap it up. Beautiful. Alright, you need four more shots.
16:50
Okay, my screen blipped out there for a second. That's terrifying. I'm going to drop the quality of this camera back down because I think I'm overtaxing my computer.
17:04
Makes me nervous. She is jumpy. So that was an unfortunate drain there. But 79 million, still an incredible score. This young man picks up the skill shot and grabs himself five seconds of ball save time.
17:26
She's got a hill to climb, that is for sure. She's quite a hill to climb. Or he is quite a hill to climb.
17:34
I need a chair. Alright, so that was not enough to climb out there. So just on the plunge this young man guarantees himself at least third place. he's obviously going to want to climb I'm not standing, I'm literally leaning over like a hunchback alright, so this young man has 3x ready 4 more shots for his next mode but if he can get that 3x the clench from me the clench my favorite thing about this internet is they, like, I think he wanted me to do commentary out loud, but I would need a translator, and I'm not going to be saying stuff like, ooh, the clench, and having them translate one.
18:42
All right, so great left ram shot. Wow, whoa, the combo. Oh, my God, this kid is on fire. He's got his three-ups going. Great, great mode start. Fear of the dark, huge, huge points if he can start making shots. Look at that. 15 million points for that one shot that didn't even go all the way around.
19:04
Dude, keep this alive and you're just going to be swimming in the money. Yep, yep, yep, yep, yep. Where's he going to go? Yes. Beautiful shot. He tricked you. Oh my... No, dude. Oh my god, that was the climb.
19:17
That was the climb. Well, this bonus typically isn't huge on this game, so yeah, that's unfortunate. But, currently sitting in second place. Let's see if he can maintain. Player four stepping up to 54 million. This young man only needs about 12 million points to overtake, to get to second place. And not too far off from first.
19:44
Ooh, and that was a big slap. Wah, wah, wah, wah, wah. You never want to hit a game. It's like, you never want to hit a game that hard when you've got a ball save going, you know? So, Aces High is a mode that is a multi-ball. You want to hit all the blue lit shots. Beautiful. So, he's already on his way. Those balls are coming back.
20:10
Great. He's got his loop jackpots ready if he wants to start rocking those out. Good juggle, good juggle, good juggle. Keep it alive, keep it alive, keep it alive. So he's two million away from... Oh!
20:30
One more good shot should have him caught up, and there it is. He has guaranteed himself at second place so far.
20:39
Now he just has a little bit of work to do, and he's got another ten million in order to take over player one spot. And an unfortunate double flip. Wow. Great game.
20:53
Great, great game. Folks, if we end up streaming, I'm probably not going to put the cameras on Congo because I don't know that game, though. So I think Deadpool might be in it.
21:04
Wonderful work. That young lady just, she held first place that entire game. That was huge. GG, girl.
21:34
Again, names are a little difficult for me, so I apologize. I'm being completely honest. I have no clue what's happening.
22:22
Is anyone able to translate? Just do some data. No, this has to exist. All right, that kid just said, I can't believe that guy beat me. No one ever beats me.
22:40
Yes, you do. Where did you live? Uh, the building in the building. Yes, the building in the building. Yes, that's right. You have a lot of stories about the building. Did you have a relationship with him? No, I did not. Yes, right. Yes? And sometimes yes, because it is important that you have a relationship. Uh, I think I have a relationship with him. I think you just said something like, I'm the best, and I've always been the best.
23:29
I have nothing. I think they're all talking trash about me. Because no one's looking at me. I don't know what that is.
24:04
Thank you. Yo, all four of these players played well, but she smoked them all. Good job. ding-dong with a giant photo of himself on the being projected behind oh my god my life is it's actually ruder than I thought now that I turn around and look at it Do we have anyone in chat? who understands Dutch
26:08
Lily, nice Lily, what a great name good job Lily Yes, I see. Were you nervous? I thought that my hand was going to fall off. Yes, it did. I see. Nice. Do you have a dog that you want to pet? Yes, I want to pet a dog. Yes, that's good. You are a champion dog. That's good. Okay. Now you can go to the next person. I'll call you back. Oh, wait.
26:51
I think that was it. Oh, wait. I'm going to... Woo! Oh, man. We're going to make this larger. The last one is finished with a very nice score. Daniel!
27:54
Nice, you have a nice ball in your eye. Now you can take it. Well, that's good because it's a nice shot. And that was a very warm round for the number 2. And that was Louis!
28:12
I'm using the wrong webcam. That's what my problem is. I'm going to leave the cameras rolling because the main tournament is after this. I'm going to fix the camera angles and stuff.
29:12
Thank you very much. My beautiful female colleague. And my better colleague. Beautiful. I'll do a little bit of a run-in, then we'll see. Ladies as champions, a woman as champion. Very beautiful. On the first place with... ... Woo!
29:42
Congratulations, Lily. She took it down. What a champion. She did it. Yeah. Wait. I'm confused. Did Lily not win? I'll have to double check.
30:17
Am I mistaken? I thought she won. My bad. I can't tell. Lily won. They gave up the first price first and second. I don't know why. Okay, cool. Yeah, I thought she won. That was really confusing.
30:39
Thank you very much. Oh god, no no no! Oh my god! I just pulled up a giant screen behind me of me eating Chinese food. Guys, I don't know how to fix this. Oh no! Oh my god, what have I done? Oh my god.
31:39
Oh my god. There was money to be handed out, but they were like giant checks. I used the wrong damn camera for that, but it worked. Now that the kids' stuff is out of the way, I'm going to try to get a better angle for the people here.
32:34
By the way, I was, like, super sweating, um, the, uh-oh. I was super sweating the fact that none of my cameras were working. Uh, turns out I did the exact same problem I did at the, um, Power 100, where I forgot. I, like, switched the cameras around. I was transmitting to the... Or I was receiving... I switched to receiver and transmitter. That essentially is what I did.
33:08
Alright, so this should be a little sexier looking. There we go. That looks nicer. Configure manually. Video input.
33:19
Perfeccione, dude. Oh yeah. Kinda bummed I didn't have this. I didn't realize I chose the wrong camera. Here we are in the club. Oh yeah, that's way cleaner looking. Ugh. Ach, tu lieber. Why was there no I'm LE Saturday? What? Okay, we gotta get that camera up and running. Zootolore, I have missed one.
34:22
The Krebling? What is he? How on earth could I miss such a sweet and little Sardulon's Kreb? Quelle dameur!
34:30
Okay, that. Next. I'm gonna have to chop this up. Oh my gosh. I have to chop this up before I upload it to YouTube.
34:48
Yo, Lily, congratulations, you killed it. She slayed them all. Cool thing about that was, she had the lead the entire time.
35:08
There you go, that looks better. Sorry, why wasn't there an Iron Maiden Ellie pinball Saturday? Oh, I don't know. Alright, let me go look at what they're bringing in here. Oh, we've introduced TNA to the mix.
35:27
I'm going to go scope out what's going on. Give me one second, ladies and gentlemen. Thank you. Alright, just double check in there. Just duplicate this. I need a background that's generic. I want a TNA in my area so I can play it. The TNA that is here is the only TNA in the Netherlands. The only one. cool. Too early? What's up, Laced? How you doing, bud? Does it go to a public place after this? I think it's going to go to a public place, yeah. So we'll leave it on this. It's a fun photo of my face. I think there's another logo I gotta pull onto here. That, yeah, that, uh, that battle went a lot shorter than I thought it was going to. I, I was under the assumption that there was going to be a couple of games being played, not just the, uh, the one, but you know what? It is what it is, baby. I'm falling back in love with X-Blit, by the way. I love it. I actually am in love with it. So this should be able to hold up and hang out for a while.
38:25
We are on the fully mobile pack, which means I can move that rig anywhere I want to and switch up games in actually ten seconds.
38:36
It looks hideous. As you can see with the blue painter's tape everywhere. What do you think about pinball in the Netherlands? They got a great scene out here, man. They got a really great scene out here. Gaffer tape all over it everywhere dude I was freaking out last minute
39:03
I could use a coffee, though. Thanks to everyone that's been watching. I know the time difference creates a big problem.
39:16
Let's switch this to pinball, shall we? Game, pinball. There we go. Because we are actually playing pinball.
39:31
So they were having problems. That game came directly out of a box, and there was a drop target issue that they fixed in like two seconds. So they're just making sure that it's good to go before they let people battle on it for the finals.
39:49
So a quick heads up. When we get to Congo, when I might have to do commentary for it, I'm very unfamiliar with the rules of that game, so we'll see what's happening. Finals on a TNA. TNA is in the finals. I don't know if the finals is going to be on the TNA, but that would be interesting.
40:06
Yeah, we're on a stage that the main finals are going to be on. It's going to start in about, what time is it now? So it's 4 o'clock. in... I think we have another hour up here of just jointing around.
40:36
Welcome. Welcome to my home. Um... Up here is the... This is the sheet that we're projecting on right now.
40:50
It's pretty good. I love you. Which is the greatest pinball machine you've played here you didn't before?
41:07
A lot of the homebrew machines were pretty cool. The DIY stuff. This camera... You know what? These cameras are sleepers, man. I used to talk so much trash about these things. I'm still not super in love with them, but the C922s, it's starting to come around a little bit. Just a little bit. After I figured out how to tweak them a little bit more.
41:30
I don't know. Dude, there's homebrew games up the homebrewsle. It's nuts. Oh, check out this Stern shirt. Flipper hold. It's got the yellow Stern logo. So, a whole bunch of crap on the back.
41:46
It's pretty dope. I got my raver bands on. I need some coffee. Jonathan Joosten, give me some juice, man.
42:05
Welcome aboard, Junior. Gotta turn that off. Yo, Masked Villain, thank you. Welcome back to the league, you're amazing. Ladies and gentlemen, flippers and butts up. Sorry, I need alerts off. I appreciate you, babe.
42:22
Thank you. How's it going with your own pinball machine? We're going to get right back into hardcore making it when we get back. So I'll have a few days back home after this trip. Then I go to L.A. for our little tour. And when I come back, we're going to finish the freaking game.
42:41
Yeah, Epis Taxes, dude. That's awesome. Yeah, so if you're in L.A., we have a humongous tournament that's happening that Saturday at Ace Goge. And then we have a stream that's going to be going on at a Button Mash. And then maybe the Museum of Pinball. And then I got an acquaintance that we're going to be having on stream pending. Their house is okay because of all the fires that are going on. California right now.
43:14
MWOT perhaps. Perhaps. I've got to go talk to the TNA folks because I need a... Give me one second. Thank you.
44:41
Thank you. My man. Thank you, Netherlands. I go to Jonathan, okay, of Pinball Magazine. I go, Jonathan, I'm thirsty. beer sounds great but I probably shouldn't be drinking on stage ha ha ha I laugh everyone looks at me and goes it's the Netherlands get all the beers so we got a few drafts on the way it's time to do some freaking commentary so in about half an hour is when the tournament is going to start hey Jack you know your logo is based on the dope yeah I know that Matt the Sprite that's how I built that Marted.
46:11
Tell me you know about Amsterdam City Flag. Wait, Amsterdam has a city flag? Is it a pot leaf and a naked woman?
46:24
Chicago's city flag is maybe the best. Is it a naked woman covered with a pot leaf? We definitely have to chop this video.
46:39
Yeah, this is pretty cool. We're actually on a humongous stage with the auditorium seating here. There's about half an hour, but people are starting to pile in.
46:52
It's way better than that. You're going to make me click this, man. It's just three X's? Yo, you know what? That's a dope flag.
47:07
You're not wrong. That is a pretty dope flag. You guys liking all the social media sharing I've been doing here? I've been taking photos up the waz, man. I've been posting my life away on this stuff.
47:30
On the waz, my dude. 9% Chicago fun tax included. No amusement. Is that Lily? Is the young lady that won here? I kind of want to go track her down, but I don't want to go running around looking for a little kid.
48:05
That might seem a little weird. I want to sit down. You know who's not here? Who lives here? Nate Shivers. Coast to Coast Pinball.
48:39
I took several photos of the kids who won trophies, and Lily, who essentially won everything, is the most unhappy-looking person in this photo.
48:52
Everyone's, like, holding their trophies like this, and she's like... Yo, Growkiss, what's up, dude? Yo, thank you for the 11 months in a row, my man. You're amazing. Ladies and gentlemen, flippers and butts up. The main finals will be kicking off in about half an hour. I have my fully mobile rig so we can bounce from the four machines we have here. We have a Deadpool, a Congo, an Iron Maiden, and a TNA. Hey, Dead Flip and Chat, I hope all of you beautiful souls are having a lovely day. Thank you, Tymon.
49:39
Yeah, Grokius, thank you for the support, buddy. You're beautiful. Again, we're just sort of killing time. You see all these wires and tape and crap on the desk? I'm a professional. to be fair the seminar before this ran a little long and then I made the mistake of taping a bunch of stuff incorrectly all over this link I need to start working in a what is it an assistant into all of my travels from now on this camera just looks so good

53:45
It was up here for the youth tournament, but they just played on maiden and Deadpool there This is the main final setup, yeah Oh, I thought they were bringing a Jersey Jack game up here. I think that was an idea, but it's not going to happen. Okay, cool. That's stretching it. Yeah, fair enough. It's a final. Yeah, and it's kind of sketchy. That's fair. So we'll see. All right, cool. Yeah, we're good. Great. All right, Internet, I'm going to go do hand puppets over here. Check it out. See you later. Brother, thank you.

It's like the white and the black, uh, Scarface? Scarface? Scarface? Scarface? Sandwich, in chat please. So 20 more minutes, uh, they're all just playing the games on TNA to make sure everything's working okay. Thank you for typing fart, hollow gazer. Dude, the drinking shadow game. I'm just going to, I'm going to loop that. That'll, that'll be the, I'll just crop it and loop it and that's going be the new animation instead of the uh twitch pinball high cpu usage detected how
56:26
i'm not even doing anything if we get a few drop frames folks that's because Thank you. for your service to the industry. Yo, Amusement Services America,
57:20
thank you for having... Twitch Prime, did you know that if you click the subscribe button up top here, you can see if you have a free subscription to your favorite streamer every 30 days?
57:33
Yo, Amusement Services America, thank you so very much. That means a lot to me. I appreciate it. Travel in the World Streaming Pinball is quite a fun gig.
57:48
I never realized how hard it was to light something on a stage when I have no control over the lights. If I set up lights somewhere, it's like he's ready to combat it really quick. So we're just super dramatic.
58:07
I want to get the blind straight. It's kind of freaking me out. Press all the buttons. Please don't press any buttons.
58:31
Alright, people are starting to pile in. Ah, there she is. Ladies and gentlemen, the voice of the female voice from Game of Thrones is here. She walked up to me, and she's like, hey, you're Jack Danger.
58:45
And then we got to talking. She's like, you don't know who I am. And I was like, no, I'm sorry. She's like, I'm the voice of, you know, choose your house. House Lannister. House Martell. It was her. And she's actually in the audience right now. We should get her to come up here and talk to you guys really quick.
59:04
Drop beer on laptop. Yours looks great. You see the screen that you guys are watching right now? That is being broadcast right now for everybody in the audience to watch.
59:28
So they are just staring at me drinking and talking to myself. That was my hotel. Yeah, we got her. Get over here. We're live. I want you to say hi to the Internet for me. I'll leave the question over there. I've got some of my shit on. Hello. Hi. So this young lady was the voice, the female voice on Game of Thrones. You're like the main narrator of the whole thing there. Basically me and the hound. Yeah. So, yeah. That's amazing. And she did it all remotely. So she got, like, went to a recording studio, did everything here, sent it over there, and, yeah, here she is. Yeah. And to quell any confusion, she is not the voice on Iron Maiden. Iron Maiden, no. Although they messed up by not choosing her because what the heck. Yeah. But, yeah, it's just a privilege, really, to be on a pinball machine So, yeah, it's great. I mean, primarily I'm a pinball player. Yeah. So it sort of stemmed from this tournament, actually. So four years ago I met Steve Ritchie here. Oh, wow. We had a little chat, and he remembered that, you know, I was an English voice. That you had that voice. Yeah. That was, like, perfect for that game. So, yeah, he sent me an email and said, how do you fancy auditioning for this machine? Wow, that's actually awesome. Yeah. And actually, at that time, I'd not watched any Game of Thrones.
61:15
I just assumed that I wouldn't like it. Yeah. And, I mean, I assume you've seen Game of Thrones. Oh, yeah. Yeah. So, like, yeah, I probably won't like that. And then I ended up watching, I think, five seasons in less than five weeks to try and catch up. Just get in the vibe, get in the zone. Yeah, yeah. So, just to sort of, like, familiarize myself with the female characters and sort of get an idea of what it was all about. Heck yeah, that's amazing. Yeah, yeah. And actually, after I think the second episode of the first season, I absolutely was hooked on David Brooks. I loved it. Funny how that works. Yeah. There's plenty of shows I'm like, that sounds terrible. And then for some reason you watch it in a hotel room, you're like, this is all I can watch now. Yeah, yeah. It's awesome. Yeah, it's really good. Have you had a good weekend? An amazing weekend, yeah. Touring Amsterdam was awesome. This event has been incredible. The venue is gorgeous. Every single person I talk to says you should have been here last year
62:14
Because it they had like 500 machines in a UFO Having a baby but Apparently there's a venue is incredible. Yeah, like a spaceship. Yeah, it's like an old Phillips Like it was like an old Learning Center or something like that. Yeah Yeah, but I mean this is a good venue that I mean you can see from there Yeah, we're in an auditorium right now. It's pretty slick. And the last time I was here, we had the ladies' tournament on the stage as well. Oh, great. And I had it up on the screen, so I was in the final then. That's awesome. And it was great, because you don't get many opportunities to be... So is the women's tournament qualifying and finals in the same day? It was yesterday, yeah. Okay. It usually is, but it's usually on the Sunday, whereas this weekend it was the Saturday. Sure. That's awesome. Yeah. So it's all really good. So is, like, you just play pinball? Do you do anything else pinball-related? Or, like, do you collect? Do you have a lot of games? I've got four machines at home. Okay. Yeah. I've got Tron, which is my favorite. Tron's an amazing game. Yeah, I've got a limited edition Tron. That was a present from my... I've seen more limited edition games for titles here than I've seen anywhere else. Like, I've never seen a limited edition Avatar in my life. And they have one out here for you to bang around on. Yeah.
63:41
What else do I have? Spider-Man and F-14 Tomcat. Oh, nice. And Spectrum. Oh, that is an amazing game. It's not mine, actually. It's on loan. Kind of permanent loan. Permanent loan is how I have all of my games. Yeah. Well, it was a pleasure talking to you. I've got to go set up these cameras on this machine. It's been an absolute delight. Internet. And that round of applause, please. I'm sorry that you watched. Thank you very much. Enjoy the panel. We have to go and get a ferry now. All right. Well, good luck. Get home safe. Yeah. Yeah, you too. I'll try. Long journey. All right. Cheers. Thank you. Thanks, Jack. Bye.
64:30
Thank you. All right. We're going to make sure that I didn't screw anything up here. Swamp. TNA, mother, father. I love this camera rig.
65:42
Isn't she awesome? God, that's so cool. Internet. I didn't want to make her say, choose your house. I... It wasn't in me to, like, get her to say it. And I apologize. Here, I'll do it. Ready? Choose your house.
66:23
I don't know. You know, I'll let you do it because, like, I don't speak English. I'm sure the audience does. I want you to come up with something. So, yeah. Well, that, I mean, I didn't say you should buy a Macbook. Internet, get ready.
67:08
Oh, Satan, you see By the dawn's early light What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming? Welcome to America. I got the voice of a freaking angel.
67:35
Whose bright stripes and bright stars... Is it white stripes or bright stripes? Whose white stripes and bright stars, correct? Lull doesn't know National Anthem.
67:54
Where are we in the tournament? We're about to start the finals for the main tournament. Look how... You know what? When I get back, I'm going to streamline how this mobile rig works, because that thing looks freaking disgusting over there. It looks like a giant wart.
68:18
Oh, I hope it's not falling over. No, we don't stream the semis. I only prefer finals. No semis. Oh, who actually even knows the Swiss anthem?
68:34
Oh, Swiss, Swiss, Swiss. All right, we got some autofocus issues there. That's okay. The best lighting on any pinball machine, ladies and gentlemen. You're looking at it.
68:54
That is until my machine comes out, you know. If you show much grief against DNA, it tilts. Well, and you like that? Yeah.
69:05
It's our final. It's the only time I'm ever okay with being in a dark area with Jonathan. That TNA is his, and it is the only one in the Netherlands. Yes.
69:19
And where is it going after this? On location. Nice. To make that money. Yeah. Make that money. And get people who are non-pinheads introduced to TNA. To get people who are not. Oh, non-pinheads. Yeah. They said peanuts. Yeah, that's my accent. No, it's all right. People that are not peanuts to...
69:41
So what's up, Danette? All right, we've got to turn this to... I've got to turn the camera. Pardon me, brother. Sure.
70:05
Well, they turned off all the lights. Oosh. Caledito. So, nice. They're pulling out the people from the audience. This young man coming up now.
70:35
Just sauntering up. What a champion. I took a photo with him. He shared it on his Facebook. Should we make the winner play me?
70:49
Is that an ego thing? GoGoThomas. Dude, Michael. What's up? So did you get that? We're going to start on TNA. then the next game is going to be on Deadpool and then the final game is going to be on Iron Maiden and if there has to be a tiebreaker it's going to happen on Kongo hey sorry I don't know I heard my name oh it's only a three player game holy moly how did they do this But it's only a three-player game.
71:38
It's very dark. Whatever they want. I'm fine. If we can see the game, we're good. Seeing the players is kind of whatever.
71:52
Like, the game looks great. The players look like this is some dramatic play where they're going to start stabbing each other. When you're a jet, you're a jet all the way Yo, Smody, thank you for nine months in a row, baby I love you, and I'm in love with you Ladies and gentlemen, Flippers And what's up, who are the finalists?
72:15
Penis, um Names are, uh, tough, tough for me Here, in the Netherlands So we have human male number one, human male number two, and human male number three.
72:44
Is it Pemu? Is it Pemu? Phantom of the Pinball Opera. Yo, look at that dead flip promo. What's up, baby?
73:24
Is there an audience? Oh, there's an audience. Isn't that great, Smody? Ludwig? main finals there are tens of people oh I am so ready to tell people how they're doing bad at TNA Alright, so this is the younger of the three Let's see what Modi starts with, just kidding He's checking to make sure the flippers are good Full plunge around, and immediate lock He's going to get some money for that right out of the gate Now remember, this game is lock stealing So be careful Looks like we're getting a little blippage there with the camera I apologize Got rejected out of the lock area there.
74:54
Good save, my man. Wow. He's looking for another lock here. Ooh, he's getting real lucky with some of these bounces right now.
75:18
Ooh, and it didn't fall in. Trap up, my dude. Oh, an unfortunate drain. Now, what that means is... Oh, crap. Can we not see the scores? Frick, I'm sorry, guys.
75:33
Ah, we can't see player one's score. I completely forgot about TNA. I gotta pull the camera back a little bit.
75:41
It's very unkind table, that's true. didn't even dawn on me to fix the camera Cool, we're going to fix that in just a moment. Jack and all the others just noticed Thomas. Oh, right on. Thomas is a cool guy. I got to meet with him. It's very bouncy. So that was a ball steal and a throw away. So I'm going to run over there and fix the camera really quick when this gentleman is done. What's funny is Jonathan said that this game, you can't even breathe on it, and it'll tilt, but he just got a big move out of that just then. Big move. Hold that ball, baby. Very bouncy game, very bouncy. So he's digging his multiball back out. This player camera is probably dropping some of our frame rate here, so we're going to... The top camera's being super ominous aura from something.
77:16
Yeah, it's kind of cool. Something about someone on stage alone with no audience. Oh, no, there's a hole. Oh, because there's no one in the front seats? Yeah. Maybe I'll fix that. Does it look a little depressing? I can fix that.
77:38
It looks dramatic. I kind of... It's like an art film, dude. It like a freaking art film I love it The lighting on this is I kind of love it Alright here we go What up Jimmy Jam Some of those guys dreams were gonna go fix the camera But man, he is really coming for it. He's up to a hundred and nine... two hundred thousand points so far in ball one. And that smoothed out the main camera too. Good, we're good. Oh, there it is. There it is.
78:20
I might drive the camera a little bit south so that we get more. The lonely DNA player. Someone paint this immediately.
78:38
Alright, so he's got a few more shots to his... There you go. Reactor critical. Now he's just got to hit the pop bumper to finish reactor number one. He's trying to raise his reactor value, Jackpot.
78:54
All right. Is he going to keep going for it, or is he going to take it? Great trust there from the bounce. Marvelous. Well done, buddy. Now, Scott taught me that the second you destroy a reactor, because of that ball save you get, immediately start shooting for the grid so that you can start getting your next reactor going. Now, it looks like his drop targets are down to get his multiball gone, so he can backhand that shot.
79:19
just like that. Now all of his drop targets are going to come back up, and this allows him to shoot. Boom. First ball locked. Now again, the problem with this is there is a ball steal in this game, so he has to be a little careful. You've got to make sure that you get that multi-ball.
79:37
You've got to make sure you get it. So that's ball two. So if he drains right now, someone just has to shoot one ball in there, and they get a multi-ball. Let it bounce. Beautiful. Right in there, dude. Just knock it out. All you got to do is touch the drop.
79:55
Just kiss it. Just kiss. Little tiny smooch. Little smooch. Oh, what are you shooting for the friggin' slingshot for, dude? Just kiss the target.
80:04
There you go, Barty. Drain all the balls on purpose. Just kidding. He's going for the grid jackpot. He got it. So, um, or no, I'm sorry.
80:19
Wow, I'm an idiot. He was getting his reactor going. But that's also part of, uh... Get in there! Okay, multiball's gone. He could have moved his in lane. It was ready to save the ball.
80:35
He's got mystery and reactor lit. Get ready with that. Frickin' lane save. You ding-dong. I'm sorry. I think it's because it's a quality thing jumping in and out for you.
81:24
Okay, cool. So that was fixed. Player one has 70,000. Player two has 661,000 points. We are still in ball one. I overcompensated like a ding-dong. Loving the Jack Danger tournament commentary. Unconventional jockey.
81:41
Boy, if that isn't the word for my stream, you know? Martyr, martyr, martyr. All right, so Player 1 stepping back up. 70,000 has. Player 1's sitting in a solid second place right now.
82:09
Let's see what he can throw together here. Goes for the quick shot. Doesn't quite make it, but he still has a ball save, So you're gonna want to get some control and go right for that lock beautiful shot now Let's see if he can nail another one right on the fly
82:22
As it comes around boom Trap up now if he drains it's gonna give someone else another ball Towards multiple good dance there, buddy good dance that puff up are seeing a lot of action right now
82:38
On the fly I like how you play buddy, so he's one shot away from multi ball So you just got us you just got to kiss that target Do not drain out. This is the worst time to let it go. Let's see what he can do. Maintain, maintain, maintain. Beautiful shot. Now, if he can finish that grid, which is just one shot to the grid up there. You can see that one blue light. He just needs to smack it. Masterfully done. You've just got to get inside of that scoop and you are good to go. A little backhand can nail it. Nails it immediately.
83:09
Now, he's no longer in multiball, so he can dig his way back out. by knocking down all those drop targets again, or he can just focus on getting up top just like that. Best thing to do when you're up there is to shoot with the left flipper or the upper flipper to shoot up at the slingshot, and that, Scott guarantees that it will hit everything you need to hit. Now, what's funny is that did kiss that target, but I think it just barely grazed it, so it was not enough to collect on that. But he definitely climbed out of that hole he was in. So, 243,000 points. Player two stepping up to 661,000 points. Let's see what he can throw together here. Currently sitting in first place. Going into his second ball.
83:56
Now, if you'll see, we're playing Total Nuclear Annihilation by Spooky Pinball. The next game we will be playing is Deadpool by Stern. And the third game will be Iron Maiden by Stern. If we happen to have a tiebreaker that needs to happen, it will happen on Congo. So, you're saving Congo for the tiebreaker. Chalky, love you buddy. I was the big guy with Sam from... Oh nice Chalky, yeah, definitely nice. Make a great shot, quick shot right into the lock. Secures him a good chunk of change there. Let's see if we can get another one. Not quite but he's still... Oh, he wasted his lane ball save. No bueno. So his reactor is ready to go. And he also has one ball locked. Let's see what he chooses to do. for the lock. Ooh, got to be careful with those locks because you do not want to leave those balls on the table for anyone to steal, and he does. So player three, who's sitting at 16,000, has a three-ball lock. He just has to lock one ball and then smack those balls out of there, and he is in multi-ball. And boy, am I wishing I turned the autofocus off on these cameras because the lighting effects on this really confuse the camera sometimes. How are you feeling Jonathan? I'm okay. So, you need a little background on these players? Yeah, who do we got currently playing? Playing one, I have no idea. A young kid. His name's Thomas. Thomas, okay. I don't think he ever won this tournament, but I do think he played finals, Don't quote me on that. Player two was Albert Nomlin. He won this tournament several times. He won a world championship in 1988. Oh, Albert, nice. No, no, no. 98, sorry. Okay.
85:48
And currently we have Ralph Becker playing. This is Rob? Yes. Okay. Wait, R-O-V? R-A-L-P-H. Oh, Ralph. Got it. So we got Ralph, Thomas, and who was the gentleman just before? Albert. Albert, okay. Albert, Ralph, Albert. This is Ralph. Ralph, right.
86:12
Ralph won this tournament, I think, at least once or twice. Okay. I'm not really sure, but there are some good players here. Obviously, you need to be good players to make it to the finals. Oh, yeah. But these are seasoned players, obviously. Well, thank you for that insight, Ralph. You're welcome.
86:35
All right. So our boy Ralph here gets his targets back up so that he can start making progress towards another multiball.
86:46
Let's see what he can do here. He has 21 now. Yes, Scott, I forgot that you programmed it in that your countdown starts dropping.
86:56
All right, Ralph, what are you going for? Send it up top. Let's see. It's always best to shoot it directly up at the slingshot because it'll just send it rocketing all over the place. 77. So I would go for it. Yes, beautiful. You've got to make the shot. So Ralph is probably going for his multi-ball right now. It's an easy backhand. Oh, I say easy, but what's the name of the current player? His name is Ralph. And he gets it with a little karate noise coming out of him. Worked out pretty well. So the spinner gave him a few unfortunate and leaves a ball locked for Thomas to hopefully utilize properly. We'll see what happens.
87:39
Dude, the game focus is insane when the lights go nuts. I'm going to have to turn that off. I'm going to leave it. It's kind of fun.
87:50
I'm afraid for when it doesn't refocus. All right, so Tom's stepping up to 243,000, currently in third place. Let's see what he can do here. His reactor is ready to hit. Looks like he's going to bounce around to raise his reactor jackpot a little bit. He has to hit the D target. See, our camera's getting out of focus a little bit, so I'm going to have to fix that. It's actually the R for rad.
88:16
Isn't that the D? The D's at the bottom. Oh, okay. All right, so it looks like he was going for the backhand shot. Nails it. Masterfully done, buddy. Masterfully done. Carson, someone...
88:34
So that's the second lock there. He is one more shot away from starting his multiball. And Reactor 2 looks like it's not too far behind. He has two more shots. An unfortunate drain, and that right there is second place, depending on what Player 3 is able to do. The game name is Total Nuclear Annihilation by Spooky Pinball. So player two stepping up. This is our dude Albert.
88:59
Albert is sitting in the lead with 714 million points. He has two balls locked up already because of what Thomas left on the table.
89:09
And he has a reactor light. Very, very true. Also, I think someone came over here and did something and it doesn't smell good. Do you need another beer? I could use another beer. Do you need another Coke?
89:35
Yeah, this is TNA. All right, so he gets his multiball. Let's see what he can pull together here. His reactor is ready. He just has to shoot it inside of the scoop there that you see on the left, the yellow blinking light. God, the lighting on this game is beautiful. So there's a good chance that ball's going to fall into there. It is. There you go. So he had a ball up in there, but it fell out. He's going to need to shoot one of the two orbits to get it up there. Let's see what he can throw together here. Just barely misses it. That pop bumper is showing why it's so troll-y. Great transfer.
90:13
Trap up. So a little cradle separation coming here. Let's see what he can do. Nicely done. You are out of multiball, but not a big deal. He's going to have to send it right back up. Mystery Ward's probably going to give him something.
90:29
There you go. Beautiful. So he's going to have a lot of money on the table once he gets his reactor set off. He just has to keep shooting it back up top. Great shot. That's going to bounce over. Oh, and it didn't quite get him the nudge he was looking for. There you go. Shoot straight up. See, that's something that people aren't really getting, is you want to shoot directly up and it will start the ball going crazy.
90:52
So his reactors are ready. He has to shoot the A on the left and the pop bumper on the right. And he's got an advanced lane save, which is incredible.
91:02
He's trusting on his nudging than he is trusting his lane save there. So those targets on the left, Rad, are actually pretty difficult to hit and an unfortunate center giant.
91:14
But wow. So with bonus, let's see if this is going to push him over a million. There it is, one million points. A solid lead coming in from our boy Albert. Stepping up now is Ralph, who is currently in third place as player three with 259,000 points. But let's see if he can throw something together. He's only trying to chase 374 to get that second place spot. Catching up to a million is possible. It's going to require some really good multiple play because if you are unfamiliar with this game, the amount of balls that you have on the play field are a play field multiplier. So if you have two balls on the play field, that's a 2X multiplier.
91:58
Three balls is 3X, and there is an opportunity to get four balls if you're quick enough to drop down all those targets while you're in multiball and throw a ball back into that scoop back there. So, all right, one more shot to that lock area, and he's going to have his multiball. He's up 75% for his reactor. One good spinner rip up to the top and letting it bounce around. It's going to be solid gold for him to, like, go and get. Oh. So it's got to be the one that's lit. Let's see if he can get it up there.
92:31
Because it's feeding balls, it's not trapping the balls up at the top to allow it to fall through. So get some control, buddy. Get some control. You got this. Let it bounce. Yep. Hold it. Send it on its way.
92:44
Alright, here we go. Great use of the lane save. Great, great use. I'm going to move the microphone here a little bit so we don't hear this conversation. So, um... There we go.
93:00
Now, if you... If you bash on the grid while you're in this, there is a jackpot to be associated with that as well. So he has, like, one shot on the far right side of the grid and then two more shots on the left side of the grid. but he has one but that's good enough for oh that's interesting someone in the audience also saw what I saw there was no ball left to be had there so he just has to shoot that one freaking target on the left Kenny hit it that is in my mind the hardest freaking target to hit the R and the D on Rad are so difficult to touch The D is very hard to touch.
93:46
So he's digging his way back into multi-ball here. So he's going for it. He wants that first place. Beautiful drop catch. Oh, can he get it up there? Now this game, I have had a lot of trouble with the ball coming back out of there and not just killing me with the center drain. So he's getting really lucky with these center drains. Like crazy lucky. Also, he's beating up the game pretty well, and it's not yelling at him too much. Oh, get in there, dude. Now, you may be wondering, why isn't he just collecting the jackpot? Well, if you have your multi-ball going, like I said, every ball on the playfield is a multiplier. So, two, three balls on the playfield, that is two, three X for the jackpot. Great climb, though.
94:35
Ralph pulls it out for second place. Albert in first place, Thomas in third. All right, time to move the games.
95:07
I forgot to change the screen so everyone got to see the way the sausage is made. But look how quickly we can switch games.
95:44
Wait, is this my beer too? Smells Dutch. I don't know. Side note, if you folks are listening to this for the expert commentary, please mute the mic for 12 seconds. I'll give you a second.
96:09
Okay, everyone listening live, someone came over here, farted, talked to me, and then left, and it was really throwing me off, so I apologize for that. All right, now back to the gameplay.
96:36
Crop dusting, but it was targeted crop dusting. Like they came at me. Wait, we're done. Okay. So now we're waiting on... I don't have a screen for Deadpool. I keep meaning to make one and I never do.
97:00
Dushting? I'm not quite sure what's happening right now. The, uh... Good. Oh, yeah, I'm ready. Yeah. No, it takes me like two seconds to move that rig, so we're good.
97:29
You know what? Hold on. I'm not running the tournament, so I don't know who's... I'm not going to tell you to start hitting start.
97:40
Yeah, disqualify yourself, sure. Adios. So. Now, okay. Wait. Is this... This is Albert? I thought Albert was a different guy.
98:12
Okay. Well, here's our boy Albert. Let's see how he decides to approach this game. Because, um... So he goes for the full plunge. Immediately for Little Deadpool.
98:25
And, yup, he's got it right. Get Little Deadpool open. Start a battle. Then, farm out Little Deadpool to get the multiball. Oh yeah, this guy. This guy knows. This guy knows. Get that little Deadpool multiball going. Oh, the focus on the camera is going to kill me. I'll fix that in between battles here. So he wants to knock that out. Now he went Juggernaut, which is not my cup of tea for the first battle. I'm more of a saber to mar dude, you know? You know, it's great. I'm not going to fix the focus. Let it be out of focus. Just kidding.
99:13
Alright, so now that he hit enough of the shots on the sides as far as the drop targets are concerned, it lights up a bunch of shots all over the playfield that you've got to hit. He's a few shots away from knocking old Juggernaut completely out. Drop targets should give him a little love, but only a little. So now he has to hit the drop targets again on the side. Actually, these are touch targets because this is a pro. Will some drop targets give him some love? I would be hitting those targets on the side, man. Those are going to give you the most damage. You gotta pick what's specific to... there you go. Keep it going buddy, keep it going, keep it going, keep it going, keep it going, that's it. Alright. So now you'll see that the battle scoop up top is blinking like crazy, like an airline strip. That means shoot it to collect and kill or ghost the villain. It's big money. What's great is I can talk a little loud even though he's like right near me and I don't suppose it's too interfering. God, I love how dramatic the player camera looks. So he's doing quite well. 38 million is nothing to sneeze at when you're first heading up a tournament on a Deadpool. So that was only one warning. He called him stupid. I've never heard that.
100:47
There's candy inside. Stupid. Alright, he's letting it calm down. I think he's going to go for his Katana Lock. He doesn't. You relight battle by spelling dead. And you light your locks by spelling pool. Great ball one.
101:08
Nobody's clapping, so maybe they don't agree with me. So, Ralph is stepping up. This is Ralph. Ralph got second place in the TNA battle. Alright, so he has his little Deadpool open. Now he just needs to shoot his battle carefully. I hope that you don't start Little Deadpool on your own. Little Deadpool on its own is garbo. You need... Oh, what is he doing?
101:47
He just locked himself out of being able to stick battle with multiball. Okay, well, so there's going to be a lot of wood chopping going on here, folks.
101:58
So he's going to shoot Little Deadpool a lot until all the shots light up on the playfield. And then it's going to ask him to lock up another ball. inside a little Deadpool and it'll be a timed shot. There is no dialed in in the finals, no. There is only a TNA, a Deadpool, an Iron Maiden, and a Kongo in case there needs to be a tiebreaker. Alright, so you'll see the jackpot's lit. Now it's asking for him to lock up another ball up there in the middle. We can smack it. Ooh, he gets a snick! He's got 2x running, so that's great. Now he's going to have to knock the ball out.
102:42
Let's see if we can hit it. He's swinging a lot. He's going to need the left orbit or the center shot. It does give him this ball back. His 2x is still running. And you keep your 2x running with combos. So you see how it's blinking? It'll start blinking faster when it's ready to die. But if you can combo some shots, it keeps that going. It spins the crap out of it. and an unfortunate run there.
103:10
So 10 million points after ball one. All right, so here's Thomas. He took third in the TNA battle. Let's see what he can do here.
103:33
There you go. So he's got his little dead pool open. He's going to want to start a battle, hopefully. Come on, Thomas. You got this. What's up, Dark Pinball? Good to see you.
103:43
What's up? Let's see. Score on play on one. We won't know. It's 39 million. 39. One, yeah. There you go. So in a battle.
104:06
Holy Shiatsu. I guess I could zoom the score camera in a little bit. It's kind of hard to see through the projector, but, you know, the quality of projectors, am I right? So he's making his shots here, and he's got his snicked target, so all of his points are doubled right now, folks. And he's hitting his jackpots like a champion. Oh my god. and in just a few shots, there is the lead after he makes, there it is, 2x collect, oh my gosh,
104:41
that right there sets him at 78 million points, and he gets another snicked to extend his 2x, because I think his 2x ended, but had he hit that while his 2x was going, he would have had 3x, a little pop bumper action there, if he can hit those blue targets that are lit up, Those are ninjas that you want to take out.
105:04
So he's got his little Deadpool open for Deadpool version 2, which is a, I believe it's a switch frenzy.
105:15
Now, to get back into a battle, he's got to spell dead on the left. So he needs D and E. His lock is already lit on the right, but you do need three locks. Great freaking move. That was gorgeous. That was a gorgeous kick.
105:35
Some fun music coming in here from Deadpool. He's hitting that 80 million so far. Looks like he wants to get that Katana Rama.
105:48
Disco Loops is a viable option here. I've been able to achieve a crap load of points just shooting that left spinner. Needs 32 more spins. I haven't seen any super successful katana locks yet. Booms it. I would not have hit the boom button unless I was in a mode for some good money. Because really nothing was lit for a lot of cash to collect during that.
106:17
Can you guys kind of hear the flipper mechanics going from the machine a little bit? 92 million. Beautiful ball.
106:34
Good ball, Thomas. Come on. Belgium is behind you. There you go. Is the volume of my voice okay? I'm pretty close to the mic.
106:47
Alright, so this is Albert stepping up. Player one is currently in second place with 39 million. He is defeated Juggernaut, if I'm not mistaken. The light there is solid. Yeah, you're not going to be able to hear the game dark. That's not a thing. But that goes for pretty much any pinball tournament. You don't get to hear the game.
107:06
Alright, so he gets the D on the left. That will start his next battle light. There it is. Now you see battle is blinking. Now if he shoots inside of there, he gets to battle. What I'm guessing is going to be Sabretooth next because Mystique is too difficult to defeat if you're just trying to get a couple of points right out of the gate.
107:32
You sound like a golf announcer announcing front or back. Love you dude. Great smack. Great smack. Great time.
107:47
The katana ramp does work. You just have to hit it, right? Alright, advanced chimichanga truck. Beautiful. And I think that was enough to light his chimichangas. So he's going to go saber tooth. Saber tooth is all about the yellow arrows that light up. You're going to see it's mostly the... There you go. You want to shoot those orbits for the big money hits.
108:09
I don't see any team ups on the play field, so I think it's just him. Uh, shooting the center, left, or right shots will accrue the most damage against the enemy, an unfortunate train.
108:27
GG, Albert. I got you out of my car, sound is so sexy. Thanks, man. You have to learn not to flip. Yeah, eliminate. not flipping is like it's such a key thing to do in pinball is just like reading when the ball's going to bounce alright so this is our buddy Ralph he was just talking to himself I think he said Jack Danger is a beautiful monster, I believe him so right there was a katana shot that worked he went for another on the fly one Oh, great. Oh, the double. The double danger. Alright. So his next battle is lit. He doesn't have anyone completed, so... I believe he started with Sabretooth. He's going to have to finish Sabretooth once he gets inside of that battle.
109:24
There it is. Oh, he didn't get any battle, apparently. Don't do it. Oh my god. He went. Alright, so... Hopefully Ralph knows something. I don't know. He nails the first shot like a champion.
109:43
Mystique is a very difficult villain to combat. Great shot, mystery award. Let's see what it gives him. Collect eight weapons. That's all.
109:52
Step on the bonus end of things. Let's see if he can nail some of these ramp shots. The reason Mystique is so hard is because it requires shots like that, which he made, and that was a lot. That's all, too. And his third lock is lit. So if he can... Oh, God, that would have been so good on the fly for the third. Would have been just beautiful.
110:13
He's one shot away to the katana ramp. On the left to have multiple. You can also get it by hitting the snipped target, which will give you two acts and would start his multiball, which would be fan-epic-tastic. See, he's relying too much on wanting to shoot that. That light's misleading, because you don't have to shoot. but Mystique is kicking his butt right now so when this battle is done he's going to have to restart this and battle her again oof, rattled off of that let's see what he's going to do is he going to start another battle? is he going to go for multiball? I'm guessing he's probably going to go for multiball Remember, you can shoot the Snixx target to shoot up that ramp, or you can shoot the old-fashioned swoopity-woop or whatever Gomez likes to call it. Give it to it. Give it to me, baby. Uh-huh, uh-huh. Looks like he's going to backhand that ninja shot. Oh, and he gets his multiball. Hell yes. Get ready for some money. So all the purple shots are going to give him the money that he needs to succeed.
111:38
Just follow the blinking lights is essentially the name of the game. collecting some weapons. The boom button is never an add-a-ball. An add-a-ball comes from Mystery Award only, if I'm not mistaken. Oh no. A great tilting during multi-ball is like Just the absolute unfortunate time to... Tilt and during multiple is just the worst. Because you know you're safe.
112:36
Only if you pick Martell. Yeah, the boom button never adds up all. Alright. Let's see what Thomas can do here.
112:55
Oh, almost nails a skill shot. So Thomas is still sitting in first place. He has more points than the other two combined.
113:13
Falls back in the shooter lane. If the ball ever falls back in the shooter lane, it gives you an opportunity to shoot that shot. Great lock shot, buddy. Great lock shot. So he has another lock late. Oh, almost nails it right on the fly.
113:28
And unfortunately, it's good. He's still good. He's still in the lead handily by more than double of any player currently.
113:40
This is cool. I'm walking around the stage with this microphone. I feel like a freaking... Actually, I'm in the peripheral. I probably should walk around.
113:49
All right, so this is Ball 3, Player 1. This is Albert stepping up with 49 million points. He has one villain down and one villain halfway dead. You can see by the lights on the playfield there, Juggernaut has a solid light beneath him, which means he is finished, and Sabretooth has a blinking light, which means there's still work to be done.
114:19
Alright, so to start this next battle he just has to hit the E on the left to finish the word dead. He collects a weapon, I believe he's also going to get a quest. So Megalodon the shark is the most lucrative, Megalodon is the most lucrative of the quests. So let's see what he can throw together here. So he's got... there you go, buddy.
114:53
In a situation like this, I would probably spend a moment, like one or two shots at least, to just try to get that snake to target 2x playfield going, because when you're at like a half a score deficit like this, you need everything you can get. So instead of sitting in chopping wood, you'd really want to get...
115:16
Those multipliers gone, but he's nailing his shots now. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. Almost got a snicked. I heard the snicked, but it did not go all the way up, which is super unfortunate.
115:31
Is that... do you abbreviate unfortunate as un-forge? Okay, so that's smart. What he's doing is the middle shot was lit, but he was also going
115:43
for a snick, but because he missed it just gave him the shot. So that's a win-win there. He's going to need a roving shot that's going to move around a little bit here. Right now it's on the left ramp, and now it's in the left orbit. Beautiful work, buddy. So he is catching up really quick. But again, if these were doubled, he would be sitting on like 150, 160 million points right now.
116:11
Alright, so roving target. He's going to wait for something that he knows. He goes for the orbit. Great shot, buddy. Two and a half million just for making that.
116:22
And he goes and nails another one. He is doing it right now. So, if you can finish us. Oh, that's the lead right there, folks. 103.
116:32
Million points currently. You're as tall as Tony Robbins. Thank you. Drinking beer and doing commentary. Internet, I want this job forever. Great drop catch Where he gonna go Where he gonna go He going for disco loops One more shot to the left orbit and he is ready for Disco Loops Some good change there
117:00
That was a very, very sensitive tilt. He didn't do much to hit that, but it still warranted a warning. So, let's see. Great post-pass.
117:13
The tip. Okay, trap up, trap up, trap up. All right, left orbit. Here comes the cash, folks. Disco freaking multiball.
117:25
So by shooting enough of the left orbit spins, he's got disco multiball going. Your objective here, just keep shooting those orbits. Keep shooting those spinners. Shoot everything.
117:48
There's this mystery edible. I think the... Is my playfield camera bleeping out a little bit? I guess it's okay.
118:00
There's a lot going on. Like the lights and the art. Oh my god. Camera looks okay to me. Yeah, it's just there was a lot going on with the flashing lights. So our boy Albert here, player one, is sitting at $120 million. He came into this ball at $45 million. So he's climbed his way out of the muck to take the lead so far. And he's going to make sure that he puts up a deciding lead.
118:39
Because the other players are going to have to figure out what they're going to do. Everyone's played their little Deadpool so far. only one player has played their ninja multiball.
118:55
Keeping it alive like a champion. He's playing kind of on the fly here, and I like it. I'd be doing the same thing. That one shot was worth 3.1 million points. So, doinking around a little bit is actually paying off for him pretty well. Yes, beautiful shot. You shoot right up the middle, buddy. I would shoot right up the middle for the off chance that it might give you a snicked.
119:19
Because if you miss the snicked, it's just going to give you the jackpot. A boom button is going to give him some jackpots. Masterfully done.
119:30
Make sure you... You know, the light show on this mode makes it really hard to figure out what is super lit. You know, because everything was blinking. so great job with 188 million currently double the previous high score from player three great, great trust there so he has another battle lit I'm guessing he's going to hit that to try to complete Sabertooth I would not bother with Mystique do not bother with Mystique, please She's just not even worth it, dear. She's trouble. Oh!
120:14
It said Sabretooth. What? What just happened there? I heard Sabretooth. And now he's in Mystique. He might have done that on purpose. I don't know. I didn't see the fancy flipper work. Great shot. Can he nail...
120:36
Yes. boom button during this is huge. He's got the team up from Dazzler, and he took her out immediately. And the collect. Internet. Big pogs. Internet. Big freaking pogs. Let's go.
120:53
Big effing pogs, boys. 296 million so far. So, um... He still has Sabertooth. Sabertooth is halfway dead. by Spelling Dead just now. Now he can get into the battle and fight Sabertooth.
121:14
A little sketchy, a little sketchy, but good trust. He needs 99 more spins to get... Great freaking ball. Oh my God.
121:32
Big pogs, boys. Big pogs. That Boner's Dough. Team Alright, so this is Ralph, player 2 Stepping in ball 3 with 45 million Now player 1 walked up to his third ball with 45 million So we'll see what Ralph can put together here 303 million points was the final score from player 1 That was an alarmingly good bonus I've never seen a bonus that big on Deadpool Even though it was only 5 million Oh, he was that close to disco multiball. Huge. So he's actually taking a play out of Albert's playbook here. So spend some time in disco. Put a good run together here. I think some super jackpots are what Albert was missing, so hopefully Robert can put, Or Ralph can put something together here.
122:33
You can see his jackpots are decidingly smaller than what Albert's were. Albert's were about 3.1, 3.2 per. Right now we're at about 1.3 per.
122:47
But this multiball is, like, absurdly lucrative. There you go. He's got his jackpots up now. We're up to 3.1s now.
122:57
Good job. Keep hitting them, keep hitting them, play on the fly. There's no reason to trap up during this mode. Everything's worth money, so just shoot it all.
123:06
I still would be shooting straight up the middle to try to get those Snicks, man, because when you're this far behind, it is Trouble-O-Ma.
123:16
There's an add-a-ball, masterfully done. He's got his ball saved back, he's got every ball back in the game. We're up to 83. He's already doubled his score. We need ramps. We need... He needs to shoot... If you get a sneak target, I'll walk over and kiss you while you're playing.
123:44
Get up that ramp. There you go. 3.5. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. Come on, buddy. Big Boom, big boom. I like it. 3.7. He's already up to 102 million. Keep this multiball going. If he can just keep this multiball alive for another 30 seconds, there's a good chance he's going to pull the lead out of this.
124:10
Now that shot looked like it was a jackpot, but I guess not. Ooh. Good. Good job. An extra 4 million. That was extremely smart of him to use it just then.
124:21
Alright, so his battle is lit. Now, if you'll notice, he only played Mystique. So, is he going to do Mystique again? Good. Finish her off. Oh, he went Saber, too.
124:32
Interesting. Right. Right, Penis? I agree. Oh, it's because I didn't turn off my autofocus. Alright, so he decided not to finish off Mystique, but he's going for Sabretooth. But he's got the Dazzler team up, so shooting that left orbit, like two good shots to that left orbit have Sabretooth dead. There it is.
125:00
Dazzler is such an easy team up to get. Oh, an unfortunate drain, but Monster Ball. Alright, so we ended with 139 million, so... Our boy Thomas here... Is, uh, sitting at 95 million.
125:22
And it looks like he has two team-ups. It looks like he has Wolverine and Dazzler ready. Uh... I don't know if he needs 28 more spins to get Disco Multivolve. But I think he... Yep, just go right for the battle. Why is every... I am... Can there be a new type of commentary where I can be loud and go, What the frick are you doing, dude?
125:47
Why play... I guess he's got the team-ups. It's true. He's got Dazzler to shoot her, and he's got Wolverine.
125:55
Wolverine's double damage, so if he shoots right up the middle, he's actually going to hit her really freaking hard, just like that. She's dead.
126:03
Great job, dude. So you collect that. You've got your second ball lock. Get up there, get up there, finisher Oh, there's so much money waiting on the table If you can finish Great nudge, great nudge, great nudge You hit my camera, how dare you Great nudge, great nudge Come on, dude, there's a timer Yes, he gets it That guarantees him at least second place This is important because he took third place in the first TNA game So now he is currently second place Let's see if he can climb that hill. He's going to have to more than double his score.
126:43
Oh, great game, great game. You guys want to see how the sausage is made? All right. Thank you. That's how the sausages marry. Look at that setup time. Isn't that stupid? I turned off autofocus for the last game. So if there happens to be a tie, then it's going to be played on Congo.
128:26
So this is Ralph. Stepping up player one. He needs one more shot to get his modes going. One more lit white arrow is what he's needing. Yo, Joe Shorts, what's up, dude?
128:41
Great dig out of the grave. Mylanta, that was a great shot. M1, thank you for two months in a row. You're missing ladies and gentlemen. Flip is about to... Alright, back to the gameplay. Ooh, an unfortunate drain. Double danger. Eight million on ball one. And you can tell he is not happy with what happened there.
129:04
All right, so this is Thomas stepping up, player two. Lazy Jones, what's going on? If you dare. All right, so short plunging on this game. Keith was a little evil about this game.
129:25
It knows that you're short plunging. and takes away your ability to do super skill shots if you short plunge, miss, short plunge, miss, and then plunge. Because he has an internal secret timer that deactivates everything. It's kind of messed up.
129:45
Evil genius, ladies and gentlemen. Keith Owen. Alright, so he needs one shot up the middle. Oh, no, he still needs one more lich up. There it is. Now he can shoot straight up the middle. But he's got to hit that target in the back to start his mode
130:03
Let's get some control here buddy Thomas you got this my man Right up the middle get up there light of Icarus is
130:13
Maybe maybe the hardest of all the modes on the playfield because in order to successfully complete this mode It's comboing the left and right right. No
130:25
he didn't tilt but he walked away. You guys are treating me right. Thank you brother. Cheers. Man that was brutal. He walked away. He had not tilted and he walked away.
130:57
Alright, play three. This is our boy Albert. Let's see what he can put together here. He needs two more white arrow shots to get his mode going, which will also be Flight of Icarus, but you can change that, I believe, with the far left spinner, which is so stupidly hard to hit on purpose.
131:27
What are you going to do? What are you going to do? Shoot the pharaoh? What are you going to do, BB? He's ready for his mode, but... Once you get to the point where shooting up the middle ramp gives you the mode, once it's lit, you can't change it. So he is stuck with Flight of Icarus. But he's doing the very smart, smart stack here. Flight of Icarus is the left and right ramps, okay? So he's like one or two shots away from Mummy Multiball. What Mummy Multiball is going to do for you is it also requires you to shoot the left and right ramps in order to get your add-a-ball going. So it's just money all day by shooting left and right ramps.
132:17
Beautiful. Now, if he shoots the left ramp, it's going to add a ball, but it's also jackpots for the mode that he's in. It's crazy how sort of OP this stack is. Hopefully he can get that left ramp to get his add-a-ball going, because his ball saver is done. Get up that ramp. There it is. Ball added. Now he has three balls in play to shoot all these yellow targets. I'm not certain, but I think by shooting the left and right ramps again, he will get another add-a-ball. The score is currently... Oh, you can see the score. Oh, you mean the scores for, like, the standings?
132:56
We've already won. We won the first two games. Yes. Which is ten points in total, and the other two can't beat him anymore. Okay, so Albert is our winner. Great. So the gentleman playing right now already won. Already won. All right, cool. Well, way to go, Albert. Just make sure to put up a score that really rubs it in their face, you know? And he's doing that. He figured out the score. So what was the scoring system? It was like 5-2-1 or 5-3-1? 5-3-0. 5-3-0? Cool.
133:32
Well, Albert, you cocky SOB, you did it. You did it. So we're just playing for second place? Second and third, yes. Second and third? Great.
133:43
That's a brutal scoring system? Yes, it's pretty brutal. This is the machine I want to own. It's a great game.
133:51
The O-penis is... Oh, maybe I shouldn't say O-penis that loud. You're right. Alright. So, uh... We're gonna need one more lit shot to start our mode. And an unfortunate left outlander.
134:11
Ralph is not happy about that. Ralph just flipped me off. Feels good. All right, so here's Thomas stepping up. Let's see what he can do with 5 million points. We're currently playing for second and third place right now because Albert, who is player three, regardless of score, has won this finals tournament. Must feel good.
134:40
Why is it so damn dark? We're on a stage, and I like it dramatic flip mode. We're, like, literally on a pitch black dark stage. It's kind of cool. Yeah, it's a great theater. It's gorgeous. But this should be a freaking painting. Look at this. The seats. Oh, damn it. Someone decided to sit in frame. Come on, dude. This is art of the highest caliber. You know, I got Paul Ferris in the seats. He needs to take a screenshot out of this. We are painting this immediately.
135:20
Alright, so let's see what Thomas can put together here. We're at 30 million points. We'll move it over in a second. What does Albert get for winning first place? A pinball machine?
135:37
You don't have to bring anything over. There's a monetary value associated with it. Oh, I think someone forgot to hand out the children's trophies there. There's an award ceremony coming up. Oh, really? Yeah. When does that happen? After this one. For the youth and for the main? Yeah. And the lottery, I guess, or something like that. I don't know. Okay. Kind of, right? Cool. I just tried to convince Jim and Paul that it's sort of normal over here that you have You have to kiss the winner on the lip. All right, so Jim Patla and Paul Ferris will be kissing the winner on the mouth.
136:25
Open mouth, lots of tongue. All right, so, wow, Thomas is actually putting a run together here. He's sitting at $125 million. Great ball control here Even though he's like playing on the fly He's really making his shots like that Which is more of a work of art The gameplay or the scene Ooh, solo So, if you dare.
137:08
Does that voice sound familiar? Oh, that ball's coming back. Oh, my gosh. Mardu, the ball is back. Now, if you'll remember, on his first ball, Thomas walked away from the game. The ball was still very much in play, and he just, I think he just assumed that he dealt with it. And he just, like, peaced out.
137:34
This is not the case right now, so he seems to be doing all right. Folks, let me get some hearts in chat for everyone that's been watching today. Thank you. This has been an awesome trip, and I can't thank you all enough for tuning in and for the Dutch Pinball Museum and the Dutch Pinball Open to sponsor me to come out here and just do a bunch of social media for them and stream the finals here today.
137:59
Thank you all. Hope you guys like my bedroom voice announcer. Alright, so, announcer voice. He has a lock lit here. He's really trying to nail that right orbit. And it's not giving it to him. There it is. Ball three for multi-ball.
138:21
So, remember, we're playing for second and third place here. Which, there is a monetary value for it. so they really want to make sure that they can pull these scores together, and man, Thomas is just going for it. The score that he is battling right now is player one, who's currently sitting at nine million points after ball two, so this 160 is just quite the upset.
138:47
Player three with 22 million is Albert. His score doesn't really matter because he has already won this tournament.
138:56
I absolutely would love to come back next year. Maybe with a crew. And more cameras. And mouth hugs.
139:11
3x cannon shot. Wow. Great job. Ooh, the ball control, though. Right there. Perfect. Get up there. Get up the middle.
139:26
That was a masterful drop catch. Alright, so trap up, wait for the aim to tell you what to do. You're in hollowed by that aim.
139:37
So you shoot a shot, and then shoot what it tells you to shoot. So for like hollowed, it's like shoot a shot, then shoot the drop target. Shoot a shot, shoot the spinner. Shoot a shot, blah blah blah blah blah.
139:53
How's the tournament set up? So there was a big tournament that happened in a separate room, but now it's a three-player best-of-three game. I believe it's 5-3-1 as far as the points are concerned. And since Albert came in first place in two of the games, that awards him ten points. No one can beat him, so he has won the game.
140:24
I'm glad I learned some first names here. I love that Albert one. He looks like such an unassuming monster pinball player.
140:42
Look at this painting. You know, I'd go full screen, but there's so many eyeballs on the game that I would piss off pretty much everybody. so all he's doing is trying to upset the point value of what's going on he needs one more light arrow in order to light his mode and he nailed it and gets a ball lock his first block for his multi-ball.
141:19
Holding that flip rep is pretty important when the ball's coming down, because if you leave it up, there's a good chance that you can smack the drop targets. This is Iron Maiden.
141:30
Let me do something on the fly for it. Outside of burping into the microphone. I love drinking beer and doing commentary.
141:43
Hope this doesn't freeze anything. On the fly. Boom. Albert was world champion years ago. That's awesome. Yeah, I heard, like, in the... was it late 80s that he was the world champion? That's great.
142:08
What a beast. late 90s, that's what I said, what are you talking about where is the Dutch Open held? we are in Drunen Durnen, Drunen Drunen, Drunen everyone says it a little differently to me and it's hard for me to yeah, Drunen, there you go
142:39
We are in a facility called Diversvene. So he has four balls around the playfield. Diversvene, yes. Started multiple from center shot instead of giving mode.
143:02
That might have been a bug. I'm going... Oh yeah, Radium, if you haven't been to the Dutch Pinball Museum, you need to go. It's fantastic. Fantastic.
143:14
I could have spent more than all day there. It was awesome. Ask for the tour. Your idol will hook you up.
143:26
Get hard. Like, the Dutch names are so hard for me to pronounce, and then when they tell me they're American names, it's like, oh.
143:35
I'm sorry that you have to give an American name. Do you have any fun facts about Drinan? Yes. There's a... Great job, dude.
143:49
There's an all-you-can-eat tapas place. That apparently is amazing. Kierad. That was a great, great ball. $258 million. Albert showing exactly why he won this tournament already after two games.
144:30
Masterful, masterful left ramp shot. Alright, so this is our boy Ralph. That was a fun shot to the captive ball that also went around the mini-orbit there. His mode is lit, he just has to shoot up and an unfortunate drain, and that means, ladies Ladies and gentlemen, we have our first, second, and third place players. Can I play with madness? Can I get a... a manka shake with a guitar please?
145:29
Nice. Quick little loop jackpot there. Poguesy Thank you lemonade 12 I appreciate it there's there's going to be a wait did they turn off the monkish shape I'm so upset
145:58
Great nudge from our dude So Thomas here is sitting at 203 million. His focus is pretty crazy because he gets really close to the game.
146:12
MonkaStrike is still there? Yeah. I'm surprised you can't see the top of his head, but you can. A little bit. He really gets in there. I dig that. That's like full pin immersion.
146:30
Is Elbert going to play or is he going to plunge? Yeah, bro. You probably can't understand what is going to be said, but I'm going to bring the microphone around anyway.
147:16
Not bad. So, I'll point this at this. I don't know if you can make that out. I'll increase the quality of the face cam here a little bit. Oh yeah, you can read that.
147:38
Kind of. Beer's on them. Wait, what? What? Da-da-da-da. You're going to see a little bit of a freeze here, and then it's going to kick back into place. There you go.
148:38
in Luleå. We're going to do the prize ceremony, but I want to take a moment to give attention to the team that has been organizing and preparing for this event.
148:53
And most of you have been there before, and you can guess how much work that is. So we had the seminar section hosted by Jonathan. And we're very glad to have you. Thank you, Jonathan. Thank you very much for coming here and for our broadcast interview. We've been watching the screen and listening to the internet broadcast. Thank you Jonathan. Then we have the one that has been preparing a lot of the machines that we've made and organizing that I've got here. But, thank you to you. Come here, Jonathan.
149:34
And this year, apart from organizing all the people that help in this event, we have made an upgrade in how we do the scoring of our tournaments. And the way we can look at what your scores are and where you are in the listening. And that is a big achievement from our Redmaster, Werwisch Koen.
150:04
And as he sat in the room, he really took the day off. So we had Junker hosting the tournament for many, many years, and he always, well, he always frames, he always soft drives. He said, I want to take part in this seminar, I want to do some things for myself as well, and we kept that in mind once we recognized that we had somebody else who liked organizing tournaments. So where is Victor?
150:34
And when the team is good, the job of the one who is more or less coordinating is easy, but I know how much time and effort and potential is. And helping us all win that with all the communications and public relations. Peter, thank you. Thank you. And as a small token of appreciation, you're going to get me, you're going to get some beautiful flowers. Ah, nice. Ah. Tune, tune. Thank you. Oh. Come and take a look in the corner. You're going to be on the pictures with the flowers as well, eh? Thank you.
152:03
We have a microphone, right? No. I have not eaten. I was what? I was not eaten. You don't have to wait for me. Pardon me.
153:13
