TL;DR

Don't Panic Flip plays F-14 Tomcat at Titanic's arcade with gameplay, troubleshooting, and pinball design discussion.

Summary

George from Don't Panic Flip streams gameplay of F-14 Tomcat with Titanic at Titanic's home arcade setup. The machine is newly acquired, recently restored by Dave from a salvaged circuit board, and features LED retrofits and some missing/broken components (knocker, siren). The stream includes casual two-player matches, technical troubleshooting (audio echo, DMD camera contrast), and extended discussion of pinball game design philosophy, with commentary on games like Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory, Black Knight: Sword of Rage, and hypothetical Top Gun pinball potential.

Key Claims

  • Dave salvaged and restored F-14 Tomcat's circuit boards after the machine's board caught fire; the machine was acquired for two concert tickets instead of the asking price of a few hundred dollars

    high confidence · George explaining machine backstory: 'Dave got this pinball machine for two tickets to some concert... They were going to scrap it for parts because the circuit board had caught on fire... They gave it to him for free.'

  • F-14 Tomcat is extremely fast, with Titanic claiming multiple games (20+) could be played in half an hour

    high confidence · George: 'The first time I played this, I think I put up like 20 games in half an hour.' Confirmed during gameplay: game plays very quickly with frequent drains.

  • The machine has been retrofitted with LED bulbs, which are overly bright and lack warmth compared to original incandescent lighting

    high confidence · George: 'This has been retrofitted with LED bulbs... LEDs, they're not warm enough.' Discussion continues about light quality and glare on playfield protectors.

  • F-14 Tomcat is missing its knocker and has a broken siren

    high confidence · George: 'There's no knocker... Does it normally have a knocker? Yeah... The left speaker was salvaged for some other [purpose].'

  • Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory (Standard Edition) has intense rules, flowy layout, but ultimately lacks engaging gameplay and feels 'milquetoast' (bland)

    high confidence · George: 'every time I play it, I walk away from it like mad... It's boring. I don't like this game.' Later: 'Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory (Standard Edition) is to me like the definition of well designed milquetoast.'

  • Black Knight: Sword of Rage has an uninspired upper playfield, particularly compared to Black Knight 2000's upper playfield design

    medium confidence · George: 'The upper playfield, knowing that it came from Black Knight and Black Knight 2000, and arguably Black Knight 2000 had the greatest upper playfield I've ever experienced, it was a complete letdown. That upper playfield is uninspired.'

  • Gary Stern would be interested in acquiring a Top Gun pinball license based on the new movie

Thank you. And it will be off. Hello! My name is George, and that camera is way too low. You're not that much. You are that much shorter than me. I'm leaning down. And you're leaning.

This is the new pin. Ty has a lot of plans for this. So there's some playfield wear, but apparently it plays wonderful. And without further ado, let's just get going. I need to leave this up so that way... Digital Pinball Player! Welcome to the stream! And Micah wants to give you these 50 bits. Thank you, Micah. That is for you.

    medium · George: 'LEDs, they're not warm enough' and discussion of glare on faded plastic protectors from bright LED lighting

    • Testing. Mic looks good. Mic check good. Excellent. Awesome. All right, let's do this. Do you, I guess, two player? Well, neither of us know how to play this game. No one knows. I will go first. The only thing I know is if you spell time-task, the lights will off. Alright. How's the volume on the game? Yeah, can you guys hear the game at all? We can maybe turn up the volume if needed on the game. I'll just do that now. Okay, yeah, we'll turn it up a bit. The key came out. Right now, it's out.
    6:54
    All right, here we go. Very cool. I feel like we're in an F-14 Tomcat, like, on the carrier right now, about to speed off.
    7:09
    Is this your new manager? Yes, this is the new manager. It's on the slide, right? It is. We're slightly delayed on what we're seeing. We're seeing what they're seeing. Okay. or kind of like a when will then be now, soon kind of moment, if you're familiar with that. And howdy, voice is good, excellent. Who was the other guy? This is Ty, and his nickname is on this screen, Tytanics, because the first pinball machine he purchased was a Totan, which is Tales of the Arabian Nights, and he got rid of it. So he was Tytan for a while, and we got rid of it. It's now Tytanics, and we're just sticking with that. So we got a George and a Keith on the, we have Ty on the screen. T-A-I. Yes.
    7:59
    Cool. All right, good ball. That was a solid start. All right, so we're there. I don't have another one. Oh, another. Yeah, we're looking for places to put our beers. I'll get a chair Also, if there's anything wrong with this game that couldn't be happening please let me know That's right If you guys know how to play this game better than us you should tell us No Ball Save Era of Pinball Yeah, we typically have deer holders on the pins but this is so new that Ty has not purchased Have you purchased it? No, haven't even purchased it yet. Unlike me, who purchased... Doesn't bounce. Oh, don't bounce.
    8:52
    All right. By the way, tonight is brought to you by Whippy Brewing and their Light Shine Radler, at least for now. We'll be switching to something else soon.
    9:11
    All right, all right. There's so much music, and I feel like it's really pumping me up. Oh, my God. What was that?
    9:33
    You can still contact with either the lower target or the upper one. They're both connected. Okay, okay. Tom and cat over there, plus you got cat right there. So we've got the sea, and then I've already got Tom lit. You've got rescue there. Wow, I got the rescue, though. Rescue just lights your kickback. That is really helpful. Okay, but we know this now.
    10:02
    Yeah, it lights the kickback that's already on. Echo! Echo! Wait, is there an echo? We're in kind of an interesting acoustically... Acoustic room, I should say. Oh, our sound is... Oh, it's echoing! My bad. Hold on. It shouldn't.
    10:27
    Are you playing sound? Yes, it's repeating. It shouldn't... This is muted! All right. I guess I'm killing that. Okay. Has the echoing stopped?
    10:44
    So you can't see chat from this screen? No, I cannot see chat from this screen. Oh, this is obvious. Yeah. But it sounds... Has the echo stopped?
    10:55
    Stopped. Okay, great. So how do you see chat? That's a really... Well, normally I see chat here, but it failed to load actually in OBS. Okay. Which sucks. So I'm going to pull it up, I guess, on my phone. Can't you just open a browser? Well, that's what I have, but the browser... I killed the sound. Stop watching it. Pause it. Oh. Just open chat. Yeah, that's a good point. Does that work? I don't know. You're just making up stuff. Oh, no, wait. It's still doing it.
    11:28
    You have an echo effect set on your mic? No. There shouldn't be anything echoing. Hold on. General audio. We have microphone, blue snowball.
    11:58
    And testing, testing. Ha! I said that twice, you guys. Okay, no echo for digital pinball play. Uh, mpt3k says, I win. I can help, I've never... mpt3k, you have two browsers open by any chance?
    12:34
    Why are you killing it over here? I wasn't really playing when you were figuring stuff out. Heh, reload worked. Okay, cool. Okay, Digital Pinball Player has confirmed that in Australia it sounds good. We'll stick with that.
    13:10
    Back to playing. Thank you, Digital Pinball Player. You're amazing. What are you doing? You are blowing up this game right now. This is just a multiball. It's a four-ball multiball. All right. By the way, if that sound is not supposed to happen, we're not really sure if it is supposed to happen.
    13:36
    Did you just triple drain? Quadruple drain. Quadruple drain, I'm sorry. Is that like noise? Yes. We don't know if that's... So, the story behind this machine is Dave rebuilt a lot of the actual circuit boards. Okay. So something... We don't know. Weird. Yeah. Okay. In particular, the scone board.
    13:58
    So we have a relight kickback with the two center stand-up targets. All right. So what am I going for? The cat targets right now? B and P. Oh, you mean P as well.
    14:24
    That didn't bounce out there. This is great. This is a very fast game. The first time I got this, I think I put up like 20 games in half an hour.
    14:42
    And people lighting is interesting, yeah. So this has been retrofitted with LED bulbs. I'm assuming they look super bright. LEDs, they're not warm enough. I'll take it. Okay.
    14:59
    I don't know if I want to replace those. Wait, you would want to bring back, though, some warm color as opposed to keep it kind of ultra bright? Yeah, maybe.
    15:12
    I mean, just slightly warmer. I really don't like it. I think all white is a little stark. Free game. There's no knocker.
    15:27
    Okay, no knocker. There's some... Does it normally have a knocker? Yeah. Okay. Yeah. It's missing. I mean, like I said, the left... Oh, you won. Go first. The left speaker was salvaged for some other... Dave got this pinball machine for two tickets to some concert.
    15:46
    He got it from... I think Lion. they were going to scrap it for parts because the circuit board had caught on fire.
    15:56
    Okay. And he brought it back? Yeah, he soldered all these chips back onto it, brought it back, but they gave it to him for free. They were going to sell it to him for a few hundred bucks, but he had a connection to get them two tickets or something. And he got it. And he got it for free.
    16:13
    And it's not overdone like some G-Fits. Yeah, digital pinball players. sometimes man it can be overdone I'm that person though that does that I'm the person that says like you can take it to 10 or you can go 11 and I'm like but is 12 possible that's me that's my jack
    16:47
    Cool! I'm going to do the weird pairing thing. Alright. I'm trying to bring it over. I would prefer a mood rather than blindness. Okay. And I get that. You can see how many lights I have lighting up the playfield right now. Wow! That is faster than Rocket in Guardians of the Galaxy. And I thought that was the toughest kickback. It was really fast when the table was steep. Like, you could barely react to it. Like, you had to know it was going to happen and pre-react. Yeah.
    17:42
    Trying to get these targets. I'll win. Alright. I don't know if this is supposed to hit the... if you hit this, it does that thing and you can only do it three times. Is that supposed to happen or is it...
    18:07
    Is that just a glitch? Here we go, we got a bonus over here! We got the bonus! Uh, alright, we need the tea, and Tom definitely got it just then. We just need the tea.
    18:42
    I what? Yeah. I mean, I survived longer than 10 seconds. I'm going to call that a win. Hey, welcome to the stream. You finally have internet. Went out about 13 hours ago. Ah. I was mentioning earlier, like, I couldn't even do my job if I didn't have internet at my house.
    19:36
    That is way too easy. I got it. I got it! So, along with the left, or the right, scoop? The right orbit? Is it a scoop? It's not an orbit. No, it's a scoop, look at that. Alright, time to go. Well, which is the...oh, did I tilt? Oh, no, I was second. Yeah. Okay. Did you win? Nope. Oh my, 6,000! Darn it. Alright, alright, we're figuring this out.
    20:10
    Yes, and this is the last episode of Retro Week. Who knows, you may have fixed Batman 66 today. That's pretty retro. I mean, okay, it's retro-themed, but not an actual retro game. And how's it going? Thanks! Muffler! I'm boarding a 13.5 hour flight, getting one last pinball fix-it. I am so sorry, but I hope you're going someplace fun. Or even better yet, you're going back home and you're ready for it.
    20:45
    And then, nice. To what she said. Alright, we need the M in Tom and the C in cats. All right, now we need the M in Tom.
    21:23
    Here we go. Nope. Cool, cool, cool. Alright, here we go. Boom! Weapons system locked on. Enemy one. Okay. Cool. Did I just drain? I did, okay. You are heading home, Buckler. Well, I hope heading home is awesome.
    22:21
    Let's see here. I hear wine is good for an eight-hour nap. I can't see where these... Oh, so I'll point them out here in a minute, especially now that Todd just drained so wonderfully. So there is a T-O-M here and C-A-T here. The camera's over here. I've got to remember that. And then you also have a tom up there and a cat over there. Yeah, it's pretty hard to see. So this is way brighter than the actual machine. Yeah, the machine is actually super dark.
    22:57
    Oh no, greasy finger is on the button. Woo, lock! Oh, no! All three. Fire! No idea what I'm doing here. Be careful. Why do I have to be careful? Just watch. It'll be very fast. Check it out.
    23:53
    So, thanks God, again, for the release. Ah, I see it. Can you post-transfer? Yes. Totally. Got it. Nailed it. Alright. Danger, danger, danger, Will Robinson! Target sighted! Destroy enemies!
    24:16
    Fire! The top and the bottom are connected. So you can hit the bottom and it'll count the bullets. Also, there should be a siren going off on there, but it's broken. It's like, it'll look like police lights.
    24:32
    Yeah, I'm trying. Give me it. Give me, give me, give me. Did he give it to me? No. Yeah, so that noise might not be until your ball's over. It's a bug. That weird drum roll.
    25:05
    Okay. Like once it engages, it's done. It's in. All right. They said it might be because you didn't get any jackpots, too.
    25:20
    Let's see. Table looks good. I really like the light patterns. Does the top spot the bottom, or do you need both? No, they're connected, You just need one or the other.
    25:30
    And, I mean, they're the same, I should say. LOL. My fave. You know, I can't tell. No, I mean, you can see it. That's just... What? I'm trying to think, is it like out of focus? It just seems almost a little blurry. I think it's the X-Train's... Just too much light? Yeah. Maybe we don't have enough light. I think that is probably the issue! Let's see if we can do the... No, no, no, what's happening is the lights... These are playfield protectors, because the bottles pop up. These are kind of faded.
    26:27
    So the bright light directly on them is causing a little bit of a glare or a little bit of fuzziness. Like right there and right there. That kind of actually helps it a little bit. Can we add more light? Like directly up?
    26:46
    Here we go. That is all the light that we can bring to bear. here. MVP pre-pay! It looks awesome. No, it looks good. Okay. That looked like a drink.
    27:06
    Chat? Yeah, alt tab is there. Alright, here we go. Are we raving right now? The bright white was a little much.
    27:41
    Color off. That turns them white. All right, so launch bonus. We just got 50,000. Whoa! That's what I mean by careful. It just happens. Okay? Yeah. If there's a ball in there, and it's not a lock, it's gonna kick that out, and the other ball is moving in. How else? This is really fast. Yes it is! This is a very fast game. Who won? I won! I won!
    28:14
    Got some nice, uh... I've never heard this. Okay. Alright, here we go Player one Color Disco Yeehaw Even if you lost, you are a winner in my heart Thank you Color Police Digital Pinball Player We Oh my gosh
    28:49
    Oh! What'd you say? This game makes you panic flip? Whatever you do, don't panic flip. Alright, let's do something about the colors here. Color grade? No? How about something like purple or color... what is it? Slime green? Is that one? No. Uh, color serpent, cream...
    29:26
    No. Darn it! What are some of the really good colors? You want multi- oh, you want multicolored. Here, this one.
    29:35
    You want bicolor. You need more multicolored things. Yes, we do need some more multicolor thingies. Get up there.
    29:56
    And stroke. Well, if you do... Did you just tilt? No. No, totally. No, no, not at all. Dude, you're a machine. You can tilt if you want to. There needs to be a remake of that song.
    30:14
    Oh, God. All right, what do we need here? We need bonus X. All right, we just need the M in Tom. Just like that.
    30:42
    Is there any way to safely get this down? I don't think there is. Is there any way... Hold on. Oh, no.
    30:58
    Somebody did something. Oh, we're getting raided. Who was that? Boop, boop with the host. Thank you very much You hot stuff Hats off Alright let see if we can post Oh yes With that lockshot!
    31:25
    Voov, how is your evening? And what is the next game that we can expect Voov to... Oh, no. What's your next streaming game? Or maybe a better question is, what are you enjoying streaming most right now?
    31:55
    Color, new car, oh, yeah, sorry. Digital pinball player is going to say what you need to do is go to colors. That's not how you do that. Colors, there's a link to all of the colors we have available. And this is a shot away from wizard mode on Pinball FX3 on Castle Storm, unfortunately. Oh, that sucks.
    32:20
    Muffler, thank you so much for joining us, and thank you very much for those vids. You have an amazing night, and hope to see you again. Oh, that's right, wait. No. Yeah.
    32:37
    I'll take it. Nicely done. That looks like a lot of panic flipping, personally. I don't want to do this. Faulty ball thing.
    33:05
    Oh! Now that noise is going to play forever. Yeah, it is. It's a great noise, though. It's like there's, it's like the little drummer boy is just going crazy right now. Someone said solo, and he's like, oh my god, it's this one thing. It's the only thing I know how to do. And the guy's like, just do it. Just let it go.
    33:28
    I am not... How am I mean? I don't understand that. I can understand that. I am quite literally the nicest person I have ever met.
    33:44
    I should say, we are the nicest person, or I'm the nicest person we've ever met. I don't know, I feel like I've got to get we back into the conversation somehow.
    33:55
    Joe Soap, super mean. how much time you got, George. I have... We're on for another hour and 25 minutes, at least.
    34:08
    Sorry, can I... The noise, is that it? No, no, that's great. It's like we're about to take off. Whoa!
    34:18
    What? How did we just get a free lock? Oh, wait. You can flip. You can get a free lock. Go, go, go, go, go, go. die! That's awesome. I'm really mean. Color, heatwave... What the... What the... Where did you get that? What are you talking about?
    35:11
    Let's see here. Uh, Mean George. MPT3K, Color Mean George. Now that... that's just rude. I need a script for color change. I don't know what's happening. So there is... So there's a bunch of commands. There is... Does this do it? Look at that. There you go. The bot commands to this channel. That is where you can find all of the commands we have. And we have a ton of commands. Like cake and furties. Hello from Colorado in the U.S. Hello to France. And welcome to the stream. Oh, crap. Joe Soap is grossing. Gross!
    36:01
    That was... He won that one. All right, all right. This is WeLovePinball's command. Not mine, but drink. Yes.
    36:09
    WeLovePinball came on and started using his commands on my screen, so I made something happen. Purdy, thank you very much for that subscription. That is awesome. The purple lights and the hats off, that's all for you. You're amazing. And thank you for hanging out with us. We have no idea how to play this game. This is Ty's brand new game. He's got a lot of work planned for it right now. And at some point, at least he will get good at this game. Yeah, right. I just got to fix this and play around with it.
    36:47
    It's fun, though. It is so fast. Like, I thought T... Whoa! I thought T&A was fast, but this is really fast.
    37:03
    And Dice, welcome to the stream! Sorry I'm late, I was watching Deathless stream from today and lost track of time. Nice to see you in the chat there, George. Guys, it's great to see you as well. It's Thursday. I actually got work done today. Like, I said I was going to have something done two weeks ago that I actually got done on time. And it felt amazing. So I came into this dream like, you know what? We're just going to play pinball and have a good time because tomorrow is Friday. I have more things that are going to be due tomorrow. But that is tomorrow George's problem. That is not Thursday George's problem. So instead, we're just going to have some fun, drink some beers, and play some pinball. And we take our hats off. Digital pinball player. Cool. Digital pinball player. What happens on my color is it assigns, for every light in this house, it assigns you a unique color. And then it memorizes it. So that way, the next time you do my color, it will assign those same colors to those same lights. and why do you fan your head when people sub oh that's a it's like I'm leaning over and I don't know like if I had a hat I would do this and take it off but you never have a hat but I never do have a hat we can get a hat around for you I brought Skynet online didn't I Dykes yes that's the goal is to get I love this sound like we could just listen to this all day Now I see why you say we. One is Thursday, George, and the other is Friday, George. Yes. All right, this is all we have to do. We just have to beat Ty. It's no biggie.

    Don't get distracted. Nope. It's not distracted. Oh, my God! That hat is ridiculous. Indiana Jones hat, one dollar on Tide for the win.
    39:14
    That's a little late, Digital Pinball Player. We're going to need you to get those bets in before we start.
    39:21
    We're playing money. We can't do that. No, we actually can't play for money on Twitch. That said, now you will find no evidence of said screams ever existing, but we have had screams where there was a lot of alcohol involved, and it was a, like a, where we had things you had to do if you, alcohol-related things you had to do if you walked.
    39:49
    And those will happen again. Oh, somebody tilted! There's no G-bounce? Okay. So if that tail bob hits the side and ricochets back, it's instant. So don't hit it hard. Okay. Whoops. Okay, questions. Any way to increase the contrast on the DMD cam? The numbers are a bit tricky. Yes.
    40:15
    Give me two seconds. This is, I can do this. Yeah, that's a little hard to see. Let's see what we can do about that. That is camera game properties. We're going to configure video. Wow. That, uh... I already think... Look at that stature! It's up, man! And... Yeah, there... No, that didn't... Go all the way. Go the other way. Go down. Now, maybe white balance? That's set to auto. Hold on, we're almost there.
    40:57
    Nope, that's not going to do it. Let's just bump up that saturation. What if I put the saturation... No, that's definitely not cool. All right.
    41:12
    MPT3K, that is better, but I'm sorry, that's kind of hard to see. Contrast? Maybe? Yeah. It's technically better! Oh my god! Woo! Probably at least readable. Cool! You don't seem to see the number of digits. And that's enough. Hmm.
    41:47
    Yeah, I'm switching back over. Oh, that is really difficult to see. It's that same shade of blue that when you're driving around at Christmas time and somebody has put up those blue lights that make it impossible to see anything clear. It's that shade of blue.
    42:07
    Uh-oh, MPT-3K is shutting the lights essentially off. It might be this light. Nah, it was that bad, I think, earlier.
    42:26
    Look at this guy, just getting into his multiballs like it's nothing. No biggie. There we go. Oh, MBT3K likes it better now.
    42:36
    I am getting texted. This is stuff about a Rick and Morty costume. That's not bad. It's okay. Nice shot, Ramrod. Did he call you Ramrod? Yeah. Oh my god, 1.4 million? Alright, digital pinball player may have had something with that $1 bet on Pied of Wind.
    43:11
    Oh, you started off on me. No, I didn't turn them off. MPT3K turned them off. God, I love that sound. Jeez!
    43:43
    Oh, it is this light. It really is that light. It is that light? Yeah. Let's turn it off. That made no difference whatsoever. Well, does that have to turn it off? Oh, yeah. Hold on. We're switching over here.
    44:04
    All right, that's a lot easier to see. All right, all right. It's better. Let's see. You guys think we're going to get a Top Gun pin when the new movie drops next summer? I think that, uh, what's-his-face, uh, Stern, Gary Stern would get behind that, no question.
    44:24
    How many ball locks do I get? It's like 20! How many do you deserve? The first time you fill Tomcat, you get two. And the next time, you get the third. Okay, so I need... What do I need? I need the speed.
    44:51
    What? I need the speed. Yes. You can post, but put your right on, like, the tip. I'm not trying to post, actually. I'm trying to backflip. You can try to backflip, but it's a very steep game.
    45:07
    Got it. We're cool now. That was not the result of the game. It was unintentional, unrelated.
    45:18
    Alright, now we need the M. Got it. Obviously what I need right now. Like, from here, is there any safe way to get it back down?
    45:52
    Luck? It's very, it feels very luck-based. I don't know, play with it. See if you can hold a pepper up and have it drop down.
    46:06
    That's scary. It got me a little bit. I'll give you that. Yeah, those two targets are pretty dangerous just for that reason alone.
    46:16
    And not for the machine, but... No, no, yeah, just because you're hitting something. Yeah, exactly. It's just you're hitting a stand-up target so close. Much better. Good work, Ty. That's a Tomcat. Ty is mean. Ha! Ty is mean! Thank you! This game is dang fun. My dad had this one for a while.
    46:34
    It's another game that's quick and brutal and has that one more time. One more with feeling this time. I mean, every game I've played. Well, except for Willy Wonka. Willy Wonka has no one more game feel to it. Despite what Mean Ty says.
    46:55
    I mean, you might be right. Death Stranding came out, so I'm going to go Lurk mode and go after it. Go for it, Faye. That looks amazing. So, I have the internet again. It's a lot of walking around. Yeah. Color Mean Ty Color Mean Ty I hope you don't program that We should program that I should totally program a Mean Ty And Mean George I still have yet to play Wonka It's interesting Now I'm trying to think of The toys a Top Gun pin Would have That's interesting If it's based on the new movie, I don't know any of the technology anymore. I think you need the jet turbine.
    47:45
    Somewhere. Just like this? Bring back the whirlwind thing. There you go. But, I mean, it needs to be leaf lower power. When it comes on, literally you're fighting to hold on to the pin. Jet turbine.
    48:02
    Got it. Okay. Wait, wait, wait. what I missed, what I missed. Wonka is... No, I disagree. I don't think Wonka is awesome. I think it is... It's a game that had so much effort put into it, and the rules on it are intense, and the game has a really nice, flowy layout, and every time I play it, I walk away from it like mad. Like, they just didn't... It's just... It's boring.
    48:35
    I don't like this game. I don't feel so bad. Dishonor, dishonor on you, dishonor on your cow. The whole thing. Yeah, I don't know.
    48:49
    Maybe it'll be the same thing. You know, I didn't like dialed in initially, and then I ended up buying one. So it could be the same thing. It could just be that a firmware change totally gets me into the game.
    49:02
    A fat bell killer multi-ball. Oh my god, but at that point, I don't know if you guys have ever seen Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, but he plays a character called Gay Terry in that movie, and he is amazing. I want him to play that and Tombstone. What was the name of the character he played in Tombstone? Doc Holliday. He needs to play Doc Holliday as well. Like, he should always ever be those two characters. That would be the ultimate multiball, ten ball, multiball. I know three of the top 50 IFPA players do like it, though, there. That's fine. We can have disagreeing opinions about games. You know what game I... It's funny, I thought of it the other day. If I had a dollar and I had the opportunity to play Black Knight Sword of Rage or... These are exciting Black Knight. Yeah, it is.
    49:57
    Black Knight Sword of Rage or Wonka, I would play Black Knight Sword of Rage. I need to fight that, Alvin.
    50:11
    It's a lot of effort, whoever said that. I said that. Oh, okay. Woo! All right, all right. now there's some moving 1, 2, 3 targets. Huh, you can backhand that. I basically am at the point when I get it up there where I'm like, I just don't want it to drop. Just stay up there indefinitely. Alright. I don't... What lock is this? The third lock? How many locks am I going to get? The first one. Okay. George, it's been like 50 minutes since we've played... I don't get it! How many ball locks? So I get all three locks right now? Yes. Oh my... I have the fourth lock? Yes, four balls left. I think we've played like 10 games in 15 minutes, maybe more. I mean, I can't argue with your logic, it's sound, but I'm still a little surprised at what's going on. Like, how come I got four free ball locks?
    51:33
    You get at least two. Just because. The third one is if you spell Tomcat multiple times. You need to get jackpot for the drumming stuff. Thank you.
    52:00
    Good job, Remrod. One more left, Super Jackpot. Alright, we've got to get back in there now. It does change your progress.
    52:18
    Okay. Obviously that was intentional. Oh. Okay. Of course this is a seizure. Of course. Uh, dialed in. It's a smorgasbord of fun and a casserole of laughs. Dice, I'm taking that. I want to use that when I describe fun things for the rest of my life. That was shborga's borg of fun and a casserole of lights. This is probably the best replay animation that I've ever seen. Okay. It just went insane. Oh no, don't drain, that would... What was that?! Don't worry. Probably went through some rays. Okay. I love Giz Giz Me. Faye, I am so...you know what, I'm not even surprised. I'm not surprised in the least. Oh no!
    53:19
    Not that safe in this machine. Let's see, BK store, but I don't love it. I also don't love it. Are you putting on a fourth hat now at this point? I just really, I'm kind of so and I'm going to use this word again. I used it earlier today and now it's a thing but Wonka is to me like the definition of well designed milk toast. Boom. Nailed it. That is your special word of the day is milk toast.
    53:48
    What is milk toast? It means bland. It literally means milky toast. That sounds delicious. What was that?
    54:04
    We'll throw in milk toast. I think that's great. It's bland. Is that an actual word? That is an actual word. M-I-L-K-U-E-T-O-A-S-T It's an actual word to describe something very bland Milk You Toast Milk Yeah You added a U in there Well M-I-L-Q-U-E-T-O-A-S Milk toast Why is it spelled like that? I Because milk toast combined Would it be too simple? I don't know That's not a real word Alright Google Hey Google Define milk toast.
    54:46
    Uh-oh. That came up. You've looked it up. No. A timid or feeble person, feeble, insipid, or bland. A stoppy milk toast composer. Bland.
    55:01
    My chat didn't see that. That was a friend thing. If you guys were ever into friends, there's Ross. At some point, decides that, like, it's something from his childhood, but when he's like, I win, you lose, he goes like this and throws his hands up. And I don't know why, but we do that.
    55:26
    Faye and I are in, oh, wait a second. Faye and I are in agreement here. I do like how difficult BK's store is, but I don't exactly think it's fun while playing. I think it's fun after playing if I do well. Yeah, it's not. It's a really boring layout. and Steve Ritchie, who has put out amazing games, kind of phoned it in on that one. The upper playfield, knowing that it came from Black Knight and Black Knight 2000, and arguably Black Knight 2000 had the greatest upper playfield I've ever experienced, it was a complete letdown. That upper playfield is uninspired. There's another great word I feel like to describe that. That said, I would still play Black Knight Sword of Rage premium over a Wonka. I would play the eh, the pros actually I don't know, I don't know I don't want to be so harsh, I lied I'm going to eat dinner and hang out and then get after Death Stranding awesome, Faye tastes like cardboard, yummy, bland, stoppy amazing, ah, friends the show from a time where even a struggling actor could room in a New York City apartment and still have expendable money, exactly it didn't make sense, you don't have to think too hard about that show In fact, I feel like that was a defining characteristic of the show, was don't think too hard.
    57:00
    Do I lose that, or do I have to block when I get back? You will lock on block. Oh, I'm locked. Oh, that's a hat! That is a really cool hat, by the way. I love it. It was really amazing for Halloween, and it was the best thing I could have bought.
    57:22
    Alright, let's catch up here. I thought World Poker Tour's upper playfield was boring. Until I played Black Knight Sword of Rage, it ruined my marriage.
    57:38
    and why would I not think too hard? We were on a break! Yes, I've watched Friends way too many times.
    57:49
    Like, I think I've gone through all, what is it, nine or eleven seasons? Probably three times. That said, I have re-watched Rick and Morty more than any other television show.
    58:08
    The premium that is, is an Instar wow typing. I've watched Friends four or five times. I deployed a lot. Faye, were you in the military?
    58:23
    I feel like I knew that, but what branch? You were. What branch? My brother is, he, I get to hang out with my younger brother. his National Guard, but deployed to Afghanistan and someplace else that he won't tell me. And he still lives in South Carolina with, like, everybody he ever met in the military, and he's still active military right now. So whenever I go out there, I get to go on, like, mini hunting and gun trips with those guys. It's a very weird, close-knit group that I get to be a part of because my brother is a part of it.
    59:13
    Air Force for a decade! Oh my god! Well, thank you. And Air Force. Out of respect, I won't say all the funny things that...
    59:31
    the Navy, the Army, and the Marines say about the Air Force. Dude, Joey Pinball. Forget friends, we need a Joey Pinball machine. A machine that no one is asking for, for the spinoff that nobody watched. Like, everything that that actor has ever done, including the movie where he played on a baseball team with a monkey.
    60:05
    That's what I want. I love the Lost in Space. That line, this cold war just got hot, I don't know, that line reminds me of the 90s.
    60:20
    Yeah, he was totally in the Lost in Space remake. It had so many great people. William Hurt, the amazing actor who was Dracula.
    60:34
    Every once in a while I'm watching this, and then I see that you're wearing that. Like, who is this? Oh, it's Ty. Okay.
    60:42
    That's the replay animation. That's a pretty cool replay animation. And the music isn't bad. Pink Ninja Man! Welcome to the stream. I lifted my arms up and my shirt came way up. That was awesome.
    61:02
    And... Oh, that's right. I don't know how many ball locks I'm going to get here. Like, 16? There's two. Maybe three.
    61:09
    Oh my god! Is it random? I have no idea. All right! Cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool. Lock's on. Here we go, here we go, here we go.
    61:29
    What? How did I even know that lock was lit? I think it's because you're one letter away from turning on the last lock.
    61:37
    So you're made up to scoot. So I'm in that position right now where I just want to keep it up here forever. Like, it's not safe to let it go down. Let it go! No! It's trusted. No!
    61:59
    Oh, what is rip-off? Oh, that'll start your emulsion as well. Okay. Here's me just letting it go. See? I'm like Elsa.
    62:20
    Oh my god! Woo! Oh! We did things! Oh yeah! Woo I don know if it counted Oh it did Did it Did it my people
    62:47
    Darn it! There is no breakthrough. There is nothing! This game's like, You are not good enough to play this game!
    62:59
    All right, all right, I'm kind of figuring this out. One, two, three, four, five, six. I missed it. I should have swung it. Did I get even close to catching up? No, but that was only ball two.
    63:20
    We have room to grow. Room to grow here. Hear me out here. Home improvement, the pinball machine. Dice, I'm going to need more information about what would make a home improvement machine a good idea.
    63:36
    Master Chief Pinball, digital pinball players with Tim Allen. Wait a second. Can we have home improvement, but instead of Tim Allen, we get Master Chief? What? I mean, if we're just making up crazy stuff, that sounds really interesting. Can you imagine Master Chief walking off and needing to have a conversation with his neighbor where he's got his arm up and he's having a heart-to-heart with the neighbor who you can only see the top part of his face?
    64:06
    Tim Allen is up there with Facts of Life, and Tim Allen and Richard Karn are still alive. Let's get some new call-outs. I would play the shish kebabs out of Facts of Life. Jersey Jack needs to do HR puffin' stuff.
    64:23
    Richard Karn, I don't think so, Chief, is his neighbor and elite. That's interesting. No, what if he ended up... Oh, wait a second, wait a second. Is his wife the digital AI that he, like, kind of fell in love with or continues to survive for?
    64:44
    But, oh my God, And that's part of the issue, is she doesn't have a corporeal body, right? So he constantly has to... He runs into issues.
    65:13
    Here we go. We got ourselves a lock! Yes! How many locks are we going to get? We're getting 32! Nope. That's it.
    65:34
    Oh my god! I don't even... I just don't know what to do with that. Oh! Oh, jeez. Game? Any day now. Any day. Oh, we lit the spinner.
    65:56
    Get there. Woo! Another lock. Another lock, another day. extra ball, we're catching up we're doing this oh shoot this is ball three and I'm player one
    66:32
    I don't know I do just stay up here, never come down Oh, we have Locke again. All right. Boom. All right, this has got to do something. Come on.
    67:04
    There's a lot of you, though. Oh, you can just break. Launch bonus fire! Here we go. We've got to hit this rip-off.
    67:47
    That is a really hard shot to hit. Targets destroy enemies! Got it. That voice is so it. Whatever. I got the super. Woo! 2.5 million. Somebody did something. Yeah.
    68:34
    I definitely got it, but I don't know if it was lit, but I got that shot. Oh, you have to do that three times to like super. Oh. Now he says that. I said it a long time ago, you can check your screen.
    68:51
    Fire! It sounds like you weren't listening. Got it that time. Where you going? Nowhere. Got the tom.
    69:44
    Oh! Three million! Bring it on, bring it on! Woo-hoo-hoo! All right. Where's my beer? There we go. All right.
    70:02
    Dice says I buy this game. Wait, it's a game we were describing. This conversation, wait a second. I gotta scroll back up here. Okay, so... Richard Karn is the Saber and Elite Ex-Con in the Witness Protection Program. Cortana, thank you! Yes. The three kids are played by grunts, absolutely, who are just constantly bickering. Uh, this conversation... We just done Rule 34 fantasy stuff real fast. That's how we roll, Big Bitch. Uh, but you would... Let's see here. I'd buy this game, But you would probably buy a lot of games you watch. Great save. Thank you. Cannabis the Pin instead of Midnight Manus. 420 Blazes. It mowed.
    70:46
    Bong on the Loops. Only salad in the fridge because bugs kill. Nice bumps. Boondock Saints. Yes, of course. Hey, if that's... I mean, it's Boondock Saints. It's Troy Duffy, the writer slash director. At least for a while, lived in Fort Collins. I never met him, but everyone says that he used to frequent Old Town. That's a nice day.
    71:11
    Was that mean George coming out? No, that was for real. I don't hand out compliments unless they're true. No, you were saying that, and then you stopped and said nice day. You're about to say a mean George comment. I am never mean. There is no mean George. There is only awesome and wonderful George.
    71:34
    And where are you going? Nowhere. Let's see here. Fake $1. Thank you, digital pinball player, finally put a dollar on me.
    71:51
    There is only honest George, yes. I don't know. Yeah, I... Depends on who I'm talking to. My wife would describe me as brutally honest.
    72:08
    Oh, no. There it is. That's not mean. Oh, no. That was competitive, George. That's not mean, George.
    72:25
    Yes. How many balls can you lock in this game? That is a really good question. Three? You can lock three balls, but you get a four-ball multiball. Is there four total balls in the game? Yeah. Okay.
    72:40
    There's three locks, four balls. Savagely nice. I like that. That's another thing I'm going to steal. All right, you ready?
    72:51
    Here we go. Four million. Got it. Four million on ball two. On ball two. That's where it's at. Why does it look like you keep locking, like, eight balls with no multi-balls? Hey, Digimon, that is exactly what I was saying! I don't understand how the locks work in this game. Like, you perform a lock, and then you somehow get a random number of follow-up locks?
    73:31
    All right. Seinfeld pinball, George's getting upset. Now, Seinfeld, it's a pinball machine about nothing.
    74:08
    Like, I can get behind a Seinfeld pin. Digital pinball player says, come on, Ty. I'm trying. Oh, those drop into salt. Yes, they do drop into saucers and scoops. Oh.
    74:29
    It's not even worth doing that. Seriously, you're going to do... Oh, by the way, we have a big tournament this weekend. We're at Fall Flipout this weekend. And that's at Pinball Jones. If you can make it out to Fort Collins, you should come and swing by Pinball Jones. It's really great.
    74:47
    Anchor management, yes. What is it? Goose Fraba. Oh my god! That just started sliding, like, going and going, and it was just leaning.
    75:17
    What are you doing? Oh, it's the 32 locks. But you don't know when it's going to stop. You don't even have your hands on there. It's going to come out. How do you know? Look.
    75:29
    These red lights? Oh, now you know how the lights work. I asked you earlier, and you're like, I have no idea. I literally just noticed this as I walked up to the machine. I'm 100% serious. I just noticed that. Okay.
    75:45
    You guys all saw that, right? This is mean time. What? This is mean time. Who figures out how a game works but doesn't want to tell? I just told you right after I figured it out. Sure, just figured it out. So you don't have to be George.
    76:04
    Is that a concrete floor? It is not a concrete floor. It is a wood floor. It's veneer. Veneer. I couldn't tell you the difference between, I guess, like, wood, laminate, and or veneer. Oh, laminate. It's laminate? Okay. Can the Seinfeld Final Wizard Mode be yada, yada, yada? Like, did you just seriously yada, yada, yada wizard mode? That would be amazing. Newman, wow, you're scratching up your wood floor!
    76:40
    Oh, that's on first. Wait, did you win? Yeah. Okay. And it's on furniture sliders The whole game does slide really easy
    76:58
    I like where your head's at Here we go Oh, I looped it! Alright, what do we need? We need the M. Can we backflip?
    77:40
    Got it! All right, all right, we're doing some things.
    78:10
    Wow. I was trying to... Yeah, probably should have just wrapped up and hit it. Probably should have just wrapped up and hit it. Hey, so, if you look at the instruction manual, long tramp lamps, red equals locked, blue equals landing. Number of jackpots. Okay. You need three landings to win spider jackpot.
    78:33
    Okay. I told you we should have read this. We should read this, yes. I mean, there's so many key words that you have. You have to read it in order to understand everything.
    78:45
    Yeah, take Ninja Man. The music is pretty dang good on this. I did replace the speakers, so it sounds very nice. It does. Nice save. Although I haven't gotten to, like, the really fancy replacement. I guess you can, like, install a switch to control, like, the bass and the treble. Like, you can separate them out and control them. Okay, so kind of like Dave's TX Sector, where he's got the separate bass speaker that made it sound all nice. Yeah.
    79:16
    I would like to do that with Dungeons & Dragons. But I feel like I don't know enough to make it actually sound good. Like, sure, I could separate out. I could install a bass speaker. How about that? Make it like Star Wars, where each character has objectives. One of Kramer's mystery items is a bottle of Henneken scotch. Yes.
    79:48
    Are you going to wear it on Saturday? Halloween is over. Thanks. All right, so I'm going to get one more lock.
    80:00
    And then the third one is going to kick out. What do we need? We need the M and all and the T. M and the T.
    80:20
    I think you need the T. All right, we got it. Now we need... It's lit. See, it's post-pass! You can technically post-pass.
    80:44
    Boom! There's our third lock. You light locks by spelling Tomcat. So you hit all the red stand-ups and all the blue stand-ups. And then the three top stand-ups for each color are tied to the three bottom ones. We only hit one or the other.
    81:14
    Alright, what do we need? We need the O and the C. No, you just need to release. You just need to... O!
    81:22
    Oh my god! Not do that. Uggh! Get over there! Go! Alright, just stay up there and never come down.
    81:41
    Boom! Alright, alright, alright. We're ready. All right. Now what? Two more times. Two more! We got ourselves a safe landing.
    82:45
    I don't know. Things are happening. Yay! All right, so that was the third. Now we let... Fighter? No, Spider Jackpot. That was it. That was it? You got 937,640 points. Okay.
    83:09
    Now do it again. Cool. Alright. Seems easy. I don't know. Just keep doing this over and over and over. We're good here. Jamie's as old as I am. It's not going to be too complicated. Alright, now we're kind of stuck.
    84:00
    There's two. Alright. Uh... Broke it. That's how I roll, apparently. We're doing things here, guys! What? You got a nil for that? I know! AHHHHHHHHH! I'm dying!
    84:42
    Alright, that's only ball two. We got ourselves a good bonus off of that. Have you killed General Yago?
    84:49
    What? Killed General Yago. Four lit kill targets to advance kills toward extra ball. So, in-link light kill, and kill is right there. Okay. And then these are the kills.
    85:05
    Hitting lit one through six targets lights fly by bonus. Light insurance returns last ball to play for fly again when lit. That's turned off. Okay, got it. All right, thank you. Yeah, I felt like that was a pretty decent ball. We're starting to figure things out
    85:30
    Yeah, this is a really cool kind of brutal game. I had to play this in Pinbird and I got my butt handed to me
    85:41
    Thank you, Faye. Thank you Well, now you know how to play it. I think that's it. That's it. Because that jackpot was a million points.
    85:55
    We're good. Good times. That bonus is not helpful. All right. So we've got to figure out what's a good score on this game, though. Let's see the high score. All right. highest scores 5.2 million by Dave and Dave has JKO, EJB okay, alright so 5 million that's what we should be targeting right now that was fun to watch we liked it the royal we I guess I get to go first
    86:39
    Just stay up here forever! If you like Tomcat, you can get your bird lock. Got it now! This game doesn't have anything on me. Famous last words though. You're gonna put what? Ugh, lightning flippers. Alright, there's one, and two, and then... OH MY GOD! Just when you think you know a guy!
    87:45
    Is that gonna give me a lock? It's lit! It's lit! Even though... We can only get one more letter and it's bought a new letter. Okay.
    87:59
    What? You panic-flip! That was not Not a panic flip! That was a controlled double flip in order to save the ball from draining!
    88:17
    Oh, we're a little misaligned. Keep it going, a little bit more, a little bit more. If you could shake it, there you go. Perfect. Thank you.
    88:33
    Show us how it's done, Ty. Yes, Ty. Show us how it's done. Uh-oh, somebody just raved, and it's a my rave.
    88:46
    So these are MPT3K's colors. By the way, you guys, we have a few streamers in chat here tonight. We've got Faye, we've got PinkNinjaMan, and MPT3K. if you guys haven't checked out those three streamers, or if there are other streamers that I have not, that I just totally missed, like, feel free to A, shout yourselves out, and then give these guys all a follow.
    89:19
    Streamers, I'm not familiar with what streamers mean. Digital pinball players, you have a name, like you stream, do you stream?
    89:30
    Or do you just play digital pinball games? It's cool. Here we go. What do we need? We need that.
    89:48
    Not cool. That was it. That was a shot right there. Our games have gotten much, much longer. Yes, they have. I thought you said scream. Oh, stream. Yeah, screamer, scream. No, I did not say screamer. Sorry. But that said, wasn't that a movie? Screamers about like a post-apocalyptic future where humans were killed by little robots that drill underground and try to kill you? Wasn't that Screamers? I don't know. You don't scream. Okay. Screamers. I just had to make up a new Twitch. Okay.
    90:32
    Well, it's a great Twitch name. I'm not saying it's bad. That was cool. All right. What was that about these games getting so much longer?
    90:51
    No, more than anything, I just want to make sure I'm not forgetting to mention anybody that streams that is in chat. That's always awful.
    91:05
    I was surprised to get the name. I like my other name better. Do you feel comfortable sharing? Parking my car here. That's a great case.
    91:17
    Is that a reference to move your car? Sorry, I was gone for a bit. I was looking up top 100 pins, denoting that Wonka is 17, while BK is sort of raised, is 41. But I'm back. What did I miss? Hi. Yeah. No, no, no. You know, when it comes to the top 100 pins, like, I have played Star Trek The Next Generation probably about five or six times now. And, you know, I kind of feel the same way about that game. Even though it's in the top 15.
    91:52
    In the top 15? Yeah. It's right after Star Trek, the Scorn game. So it's like 12 and 13. I don't think it personally belongs there, but that's just me. Man, you got... Sometimes theme does it for you, and Wonka should have done it. I love Wonka. We just read Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory to my daughter, the original, and then we watched the original movie. Did you win or did I win? I won. Woo-hoo!
    92:21
    Look at me go. Me and my bad step. Wow. No. I just said it's better than parking my butt. Don't panic, Cliff hates chocolate and bubble gum. I'm actually not a fan of chocolate. I do like milk chocolate, though. Great books to read just before Halloween. Yep. Wait, I'm starting to sound like Wolfman. Yikes. Yeah, turkey.
    93:14
    Hey. Awesome. I like that. Let's go for M. Got it. What are you doing? Are you messing with my computer No I just looking at the colors Wait I starting to sound LOL Woo Colors Oh Fertzilla Oh, who's... Oh, you're Fertzilla.
    94:06
    I don't want to watch this stream. That's awesome! Let's go, exclamation point, color... what was it? Let's just do some random ones. Hashtag, 66644. What is that? Very green? is yellowish-green, not cool. We're gonna go exclamation point color, hashtag, uh, MF9999. Okay. Alright. What just happened? Oh. No, we're good? Oh, I totally missed. missed it, yes. Are we still lined up? Yes, all right. What do we need? We need the M. Got it.
    95:43
    It was very unique is what it was. Unique New York. Sounds like a hair dryer. All right. Weapon system locked on. We've got ourselves a lock. We're going to get like 30 of them this time. And there's one. And there's two. Oh jeez! Oh my god. You just quit your full trade? Huh? You just quit your full trade? I... it shot it right down the middle. That was not my fault. Sounds like my CPU fan trying to keep my CPU from overheating. Burtzilla! Coming in with a subscription using your Twitch Prime. You're amazing. What the hell is that? I wanted to change the color and not...
    96:30
    Well, you did it all at the same time. Did I? Did that work? That didn't work. Well, it worked, and then it changed it to white because I have to work on the event stuff with Roboctopus.
    96:44
    I don't like this app. I didn't mean to do that at all. I just wanted to type in a color. Yeah, the Twitch app needs some work. But Digital Pinball Player came in and saved us with a really good-looking orange? I don't know what to call this.
    97:01
    And maybe odds... Yeah, this is... It's orange. Definitely orange. Fire! That didn't work too well. Red, orange. Okay. All right.
    97:22
    Let's go! color redhead red. That did not work. That did not work, Pink Digimon. Oh. I am so sorry. You did win.
    97:38
    Did you? Really? Ah, 40,000. All right, all right. That's cool. I think we're up to, like, 20 games in one night. Okay, okay. It's a very fast game. Dang, pounded fun. It really did. All right. FF681F That's a little bit more on the red side But still very Mood setting I want Phillip's hue lights All throughout my house So that way I can change the color at will And not tell Jeff No, I mean She would figure it out She knows me It would be hilarious Oh my god While she's home alone And I'm out on like a business trip or something No Changing all the light colors on her That would be me It's the red orange again. But, yeah, just surprise it the first time. Right. Here we go. Here we go.
    98:51
    All right, we need the tea. Totally got the tea. Got it. Ah! Hey! Ah! Hey! Princess Perfume. That is also a really good shade of purple. I like cool purple. Pink. It is either really cool purple or pink. That's fine. You can't say that. Did Chad see that? No, Chad didn't. No one saw that. No one saw the ball. Castell pink. I'm with Ty. Yeah, it's probably pink. Everything shows up way more colorful than it actually is in real life on the screen.
    99:56
    In fact, while we're in here, I'm just going to go ahead. It does. That, I think, is still my favorite.
    100:06
    Now, it doesn't look good. probably look great on camera. These are good-looking ones. Remember that. They're slightly off-color.
    100:26
    Alright, we need a lot of letters here. Ooh, that is cool. What color is that? Smell the roses. Smell the roses!
    101:08
    That ball... no, that was not ball for the snake. Alright, alright, we're gonna shove this just a little bit that way... there we go, okay.
    101:22
    Forgot the number symbol. Oh, yeah, you've got to put the hashtag. Oh, right. I didn't stop the test.
    101:27
    Forget it. Working the furniture sliders. LOL. Didn't do that. Nope, nope. Don't look. I'm not looking.
    101:39
    That went right down the middle. Yeah, I'm bad at doing that for some reason. With the hashtag. All right, that was a good ball three. Solid ball three. Chat did not see that.
    102:04
    Oh! All right, I won. All right. Are we putting money on this one? No, we're not actually putting money on this. Seriously. No money. There's no money on this.
    102:21
    Sorry. What's up? We need the M, the C, and the A. We got the M. We got the... That is... Yeah, it's kind of brown. I don't know.
    103:11
    Yeah, I'm bad at doing that. Yeah, we saw that. That's just gonna drain. That felt good. That looks darker than black, doesn't it? It's just a pretty dang dark.
    103:35
    Guys. Number symbol. One, one. It's like my cute combination to my luggage. I guess it'd be zero... One. Hashtag 01111. No, 010101. No, you didn't say that. Is that off? That's close. Zeros is black. Yeah, so that was slightly brighter than black. I'm going to go, uh, exclamation point color. Hashtag, let's go, 336699. That is as gray as gray can get. it. Let's go color. What was that? Lavender? Is it Lavendar? Yeah, I think it's color lavender.
    104:37
    Apparently, I have no idea how to spell lavender. Oh, and five seconds. Alright, what do we still need? Tom and Cat?
    105:02
    And now we need... Oh, we... There we go. Oh, come on. There we go, we got ourselves a ball lock. Lavender. Okay, I feel like I said that.
    105:48
    The colors look more accurate on screen than in real life. Brown. Okay. Ooh, I like that one, Digital Timbal Player. That's a... I like gray. That's a... that's like a... To me, that's a code for lavender. Okay. To me, that's thickly white. Okay. That's what Totem originally had all of its lights. It was like a slightly purple-white. And it was... it was gross. And it was... I thought it was gross. But I mean, this is me. I don't like subtlety when it comes to light. That's why you made this program. That is why I made this program, yes. So if I go... I was thinking about that... Uh, color purple!
    107:03
    Background's not working right now. Game over, man! Game over! Uh, so if I do that, will it go out there and grab it? Oh no, I broke it, that's why. So the stream changing color requires a little bit more effort to get to work with multiple people. It was only working just with my account. And we did get MPC3K set up.
    108:03
    Okay, so just trap all of the balls on the right. Don't tell me I don't live my life. Nice, there's one.
    108:19
    Where's the other ball? Don't worry about it. Is it stuck somewhere? No. How old is this kid? 32 years old, that's how. Wow. It doesn't have an auto-chip. Okay.
    108:33
    Oh, is it sitting in the air? Can I get a ruling? over here? I love shit. I love shit. Don't judge me. Oh my god! Alright, you won again?
    108:59
    Then we played 100 games of F14 in one night. Yeah. Alright, I think this is going to be the last game. It is 12-20. This is assuming you don't just, like, tap out. Which Ty could totally do right now. Just kind of, like, pinball-style give up. Which is just drain almost immediately. That would be really, really bad. That would be horrible. I totally agree. Nice, nice, nice. Oh my god, I watched the Dora the Explorer movie, the live action movie. Uh oh, somebody did something. Max power, 60,000, coming in hot. Like, kinda hot in these rhinos hot. With a host, thank you so much. It's a hats off. And welcome to the stream. We are finishing up an evening of playing F-14 Tomcat. This is the last in a three-part series of playing retro-style games. And the reason the series exists is because I just made it up, and we're playing, and why we're continuing it or doing it all in the first place is I had nothing better to do waiting for my code to compile, and that's what I came up with. So anyway, perfect dodge. That was like it was planned. Like you get it. Like you're forgetting it, and you hit the lower target. Digital pinball player, I definitely picked that, we, we picked that scene, mpt3k and Faye know what I'm talking about there, the royal we, but anyway, yeah, I, hey, I love Jim Carrey, Ace Ventura 1 and Ace Ventura 2 are amazing, and I was trying to find different things I could say to people, Like, you know, in that scene, it's kind of hot in these rhinos, and you're coming in hot with a raid or a host.
    111:14
    That's unfortunate. That was a very good ball, though. Wow, interesting refresh rate on the controlled lamps on F-14. By the way, I have watched Max Power's 68,000th stream. Dude, first of all, if you guys haven't checked out MaxPower68000, you definitely should. Wonderful streamer, super chatty, engineer to the core.
    111:43
    Are you saying I can change how fast you slicker? Maybe. I don't know. I just got this, and I have no idea.
    111:59
    Boom. Launch bonus. Whoa. Really, game? I think you did it so far. All right, we need the end.
    112:42
    Missed it. Toad's missed it. I'll take it. Whatever. Oh, we got spotted. I guess the M and we got the lock somehow.
    113:13
    Yeah, it'll give you a letter if you don't have it. Alright. Peppers! Welcome to the stream! Wow, interesting refresh. I don't cool a fast game. Yes, very fast. I'm Max and Pepper Williams. We're known for fat. Yeah. And this is a Steve Ritchie. So it's super fast.
    113:46
    I do need to continue. Wait, the three ball block music in this is one of my favorite pinball songs, okay?
    114:04
    Did that kind of make you throw up in your mouth a little? A little bit. No, but really, I can chase the refresh rate on these. Yeah, no, seriously, Max Power 68,000, is there anything that Ty over here can do to slow down how frequently they flash because it gets a little crazy.
    114:45
    Change your exposure setting on your camera. Oh. Oh, camera refresh rate. Yeah. Come on. That is all I can really do right now.
    115:22
    The strategy? You can't change the strategy? I did change it. I dropped it down. It was at 125, which might be causing... So I dropped it down from 125, I think, down to 100, which hopefully is a little less bothersome.
    115:52
    Oh, that was ball two. That was just ball two. Just ball two. All right. It's like, yeah, like filming a CRT. Exactly.
    116:12
    So did the 100, did that fix it though? You can get an LED OCD board. You can be LED lights bugging. Okay.
    116:28
    And DPP, typical pinball player, did not notice it. Oh. Yeah! Look at that! Didn't notice it looks the same, and you're on a 60 hertz monitor. Don't worry about the physics, they're real, this is real life. Oh, what?
    117:36
    Nice. Alright. You doubled, I think, on that one. I have no idea how to tell. It's so fast. It is. Kill it! Pull up! Pull up! I can't! I can't! They should start building clay fields with bumps. Alright. That would be cool. Be a pan of us manufacturers, eh? Cause you'd have to like, make some kind of thing, glue it on, and then put fear over it. What do we need? We need the tea! Tea!
    118:32
    I don't think we can hit that from there. Apparently not! There we go. I'm leaning towards getting a brand new slice of it. This game is pretty fun.
    119:08
    It is pretty fun, yeah. I gotta agree on that. Darn it. This is the first time I've actually really played it for a long time. There we go. Third ball! Here we go, here we go, here we go.
    119:40
    We got it there. It doesn't matter how it gets there, we got it there. Alright. That's fine. We didn't even need those. I'm going to need you to get a jackpot to make that noise stop.
    120:26
    That's good. Thank you. Totally stopped it. We're just going to be patient here. We're going to be super patient and wait for the ball to come to us.
    120:51
    That definitely worked. It was a really, really good idea. Yeah. It sure would be a shame if the... There's no slipping happening here.
    121:08
    Whoa, what is going on there? The inserts are raised. I gotta heat them up and drop them down. I got an alpha kill, is there enough?
    121:29
    Oh no, I think I didn't get it. Oh no. Does that, and it takes us to 1233. Pistol, oh, Pistol Whip came out! That's the new Oculus, the new Oculus game that came out that kind of seems a little bit like... An Oculus exclusive? Like, super, super hot. Oh.
    121:52
    It's good to watch. I love the lighting. Is there any play field made of all lights? Digital Pinball Player, there is a pin from the same guys who do... Oh, wait, I can switch to this. From the same guys who do the P-Rock. I can't think of their name right now. They put out their own pinball machine as well that is just a giant LCD screen with pinball on top of it. and then you can switch out or swap out the back fields, which is where you interact with a bunch of stuff. So that's a pretty good one. I'm just curious to see what this looks like on stream. Oh, hold on. Let's switch it back. This is no additional lighting. No additional lighting. What does that look like? No, but... Hold on.
    122:38
    Oh, that's not what I wanted to do. But that's not bad. That is very flashy. Also, you can really see the scores now that it's dark.
    122:48
    And then this would go... Hang on, this would go... Oh, sorry. Oh, just the extremes. Hold on. So this is just the extremes. Okay.
    123:02
    Yeah, those extremes. So these are the pin stadium extremes. If you're going to stream pinball, they are super handy. Now, this is great lighting just by itself. It is awkward because you can't tap the side. True. You can't hit the side. Well, my name is George. Thank you guys so much for hanging out. and for hanging out this week. It's Thursday. I want everyone to be safe and have lots of fun this weekend. We're over here tonight at Ty's Place playing his F-14 Tomcat. We will be back on Monday, I think, playing some Batman 66. Batman 66 might die on us, and we know that going in. We're hoping that we fixed an issue, but if we didn't fix the issue, we want to be able to send a video to Stern of the weird flipper issue that we were experiencing previously. So without anything else, You guys have an amazing weekend, and thank you so much for hanging out. See you all later.
    124:18
    Thank you. Thanks for watching!
