🎵 Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Hello! My name is George, and this show is Don't Panic Flip, and we have a special stream tonight. Here with me is MPT3K up there. I like that I can just I can just kind of point up and you can look down Mr. Kennedy thank you very much for that that is the that's a hats off although I can't actually take the hats off tonight and Dice welcome to the stream let's see here I wonder oh you guys couldn't hear that but that destroyed my ears i i apologize for not saying anything i need a second dice coming up strong immediately with a hats off for the subscription mr kennedy enjoy that wonderful sub. We'll get sounds here in a second. The sounds are now going to my headset, so I have to move my sounds over to... That's one thing we didn't check. On the feedback for that. To the headphones here. Boom. So now if you do something like this... Hold up. Boom. That actually did come through the desktop audio this time. Right? Okay, cool. So, before we get started, I'm sorry, no, no, no, this is straight up a duel, right? Tron vs. Tron, virtual vs. physical, Manu vs. Manu-E-Manu, has anyone ever said that before? Let's see how this goes Are you ready for a scene change? I am Scene change That was actually a really good scene transition We timed it nicely Pink Ninja Man, welcome to the stream Okay Okay, this is it. This is, you've got me down here in the bottom. You've got my score just above it, and then MPT3K's up at the top. And if you want to point down at your DMD screen, just to show them where that is. There. Yeah. Yeah. So, for the first duel, do you want to go... High score? Yes. Does this actually have to happen? Can we... Like, we technically did it. We don't actually have to duel, right? I know, Caviel, there are so many different things to look at right now. But... I should have my sounds, too. You should... Oh, yeah, right? Like, when somebody posts something, it should play the sounds in both channels? Okay. By the way, there is about a three-second delay between Manu and myself. That is really loud in my ears. I'm gonna change one thing here really quick. No, because that's also gonna make Manu more quiet. I just have to deal with the fact that those are really, really loud. Oh, wait, before we get started, MPT3K, what are you drinking? I'm drinking a wine called Cupcake. It's a mixed red blend. Where's it from? I'm curious because the only time I've ever had a cupcake and red wine pairing was in California. I think up closer to San Francisco. Ah. Well, it's just called Cupcake. I think it's from here. A lot of our wines are from here. well I'm drinking trusty old chillax from bootstrap brewing which is a pineapple golden ale and caviar yeah don't worry about it it's super loud and I'm just gonna have to deal with it you know you should do that just before I get into a multiball or something so I end up just dropping the ball oh my god are you good to go MPTBK yeah whatevs okay here let me just say this okay with this I'm not good at Tron okay George basically told me how to play it like moments before I'm okay I'm okay I've streamed the virtual before I played the real my high score 69 okay it's right there so we'll see what was the challenge do you just want to go a straight up High score for the first one. We'll keep it simple. And whenever, if you dream. Oh, my God, that's so loud. We'll have to figure that out. It's so loud. And also, Jedi Big Muffin, welcome to the stream. I hope you enjoyed the loving it sound because my eardrums are rocked from that. That's great. So maybe just go high score, and whenever you drain a ball, you have to finish watching the other person finish their ball. Okay. Actually, I'm relying on you for the chat right now, although I could turn around. Oh, that's right. Yeah, I'll try and read it off. So George is never going to do this again because he won't be able to hear anything. Oh, wow, same game. Is this a multi-stream Jedi McMuffin? This is using RTMP and EngineX is the software that I figured out while I was in an eight-hour meeting today, how to get functioning. Kind of the idea was initiated by Ken Cromwell over at Flip N Out Pinball. He posted the question if I knew how to do something like this. And we came up with a few alternatives because this one was technically really difficult to achieve. There's a bunch of videos, and even the videos that walk you through how to do it are kind of technically difficult. So, and I had nothing better to do and figured it out today. I'm going to simplify it completely and put it on the Discord so others that want to set up an Nginx RTMP server can do something exactly like this. But anyway, MPT3K, let's do it. Alright. I, uh... I have my game sound on. Let me know if you can turn it on. I can't even hear it, so I'm good. Are you plunging? Uh, okay. And Pink Ninja Man asked, what wine were you drinking? It's called Red Drink. It's a red blend. Right? Jeez. Don't bother me. I had a really good start so far. I don't know about you. Damn it. I missed the end of the line. I'll take that. Whoo. All right. How confusing. How confusing. I imagine a little confusing. What's funny is like everybody who watches streamed pinball, they're always like, hey, I wish I could watch. Yeah. Yeah, how is this not everybody's favorite thing, right? All right, so I've got light cycle lit. How are you doing? I got light cycle. I'm in light cycle. You see the hat? I am Mrs. Nesbitt. Come on in with me. The water's hot. And I am out, so I get to watch you finish up the rest of your ball one. Mm, mm, mm. I was just baiting you, baby. Yeah, you were. Apparently, that was just a, that was a for funsies stream earlier. All right, so while that's happening, I'm catching up on chat. PickNinjaMan thinks this looks good. Snivy Tries, welcome to the stream. Actually, I also realized the guy who still has functioning ears also has direct video to the backboard. Yes. Yes, he does. That was a choice we made so that the virtual looked more virtual. Yeah, by the way, on the left side of the screen, that is a virtual cabinet that MPT3K built. And on the right side of the screen is an actual Tron. So what you're seeing right now is virtual versus physical. And before we play ball two, let me finish catching up here. So I noticed on the flipping out screen that they had a little trouble coordinating Skype with the broadcast. Yes. And we're still – you're going to see me respond, I think, seconds before Manu actually says or does something. on the stream because we also have, uh, direct communication via zoom, a zoom meeting going on right now. And that's how we're communicating. Uh, and Hey, if I put in for 20 pushups, does George do them all? Or do you guys split them? Jedi McMuffin. So if you put in for pushups, we don't do it until the challenge is completed. And whoever loses the challenge does the pushups. So excellent question. I love that you asked that. It is like a real versus virtual comparison. How accurate is VPX to real life? I wish wax was in here right now. You tell us, guys. You tell us, really. And let's see here. Should have added some steaks like whoever loses each game has to shotgun lime white claw. I do have one lime white claw that nobody will drink upstairs. It's disgusting. And that is awesome. Or some steaks and winner gets sent a delicious package from Omaha Steaks. Do the push-ups accumulate? Snivy tries, they do. So, you keep using your stream points, which are tomfoolery points, to purchase push-ups, and they will accumulate until the challenge is done. So there we go. Guys, 20, 30 push-ups. 40 push-ups. Look at these, guys. Look. And so far, George is losing. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Okay. Okay. There goes 70 push-ups. I'm going to be playing. It's only going to get worse from here. All right. Fun. Fun stuff. Fun stuff. And there's more. Yeah. Let's pace ourselves here. I really hope I win this now. All right. MPZ3K, are you ready for ball two? Yeah, me either. All right, here we go. All right, so I go right into light cycle multiball. I'm done. I can't believe I just did that. I got my first gem shot. I just gave you a huge opportunity. Check. You guys got a... Oh, my God! There goes the second gem shot. All right. It's fine. It's fine. You didn't... We're going into ball three here on somewhat equal footing. But before we do it, let's catch up. So there's more where that came from. Might have to trade for some sit-ups. Mr. Kennedy, at 70 push-ups, I feel like we might have to split this one down the middle. I think he said to do more. Let's see if we can check our top best of 120. Yeah, that 120 was rough, guys, by the way. Oh, no. Oh, no. Oh, I can definitely see the difference in physical versus virtual. Jedi McMuffin, I think it's really cool that you didn't notice at first. MPT3K's son came in and couldn't tell whose was whose while we were playing. And I think that really says something about how, A, amazing the stream looks, but also how awesome and realistic the virtual pinball machine is. also you'll notice that that is an LE version with the red backlit recognizer I think that is that's just gorgeous it really is so how much to get this boy to make me a virtual table says Snivy Tries oh my god it's just no it took six months of straight work and then years of refining over time. So you can buy them. Yeah. In fact, when I was at, I think it was TPF last year. It sucks that TPF isn't happening this year, but there was a guy who was selling them, and they weren't bad. I don't think they have anywhere near the same level of quality that MPT3K has, and all of the changes you've made and adjustments. Yours is quite nice, but yeah most of the people who self-build them they're like cars they just keep putting stuff in and keep putting stuff you know what i mean uh or 500 and buy an oculus quest easier and cheaper yeah with all the the vr pinball machines that are out there it uh it it is it's not bad and i was about to say uh mpt3k you have have you streamed playing any of the any of the vr stuff yet? Uh, sorry, VR pinball machines specifically. Yeah, I did this, I did actually this, um, maybe two weeks ago. That was the one that gave me the, okay, cool. Yeah, I'm remembering it now. Yeah. Okay. And what if I buy MPT3K some red wine and cupcakes? Oh. Even then, Still no virtual cab. I'm out, so we can talk. And a Beatles fan in Arizona just said, great to see you again, MPT3K, and welcome to the stream. All right, you ready for ball three? All right. Yeah, whatever. Here we go. What am I going to do? I think I got to do... I think I got a two. That's awesome. Or at least I need to prove that I have a tilt. I feel like people don't believe that I have a tilt. Woo! We're good. We're fine. We're fine. Dice just gifted a tier one sub to Beatles fan in Arizona. Dice, thank you very much. that is a hats off. Um, it is like, there's actually something, something on this, right? All right. You got it. 9.5. I'm sorry, but you, you have to sit here and watch the rest of this, right? Ooh, there's a gem shot. I just started gem. God, that feels good. Oh, really? You said, you said I got you, but I didn't have you. That's, that's not bad. What am I at? 10-9-1, you're at 10-4-20, so don't tilt. Alright, so we said we'd divide them in half on this first one since people went crazy. Alright, so that's 35 push-ups apiece. And Beatles fan in Arizona, enjoy those emotes. Feel free to throw them out. Those emotes are, those are, I think they're some of the better emotes out there. But 35 push-ups coming up. Right back. Yes, but let's switch over to the other scene really quick. So, scene change. Action. Yes! Look at that timing. That looks awesome. Okay. Very nice. You like it? I don't know if I can make it, but let's try. All right, 35. Here we go. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30. 1, 32, 33, 34, 35. All right. Someone called Steven Spielberg. George is ramping up the production value. Dice, thank you. Had me. You never had me. You never had your car. Dice, I don't actually get that. One more. You know your pinball playing skills only improve as your muscles get more and more tired. Stream. Talk. Oh my God, that's awesome. Your face. I want to take a picture of that or clip that somehow. You're fine. I'm okay. Oh my God. oh man can I do it everything's perfectly alright we're fine we're all fine okay kinda red there yes how are you I'm very red mpt3k you're a little red as well so we get that poor man some water beer instead alright okay no more wine that's from the first Fast and Furious movie It's a dialogue that Vin Diesel had with Paul Walker. Well, now I have to go back up. Oh, yeah, you froze. What happened? Oh, did you do a scene change? No, actually, that's... Houston, we have a problem. Uh-oh. The Pinsomniac, that was great. The problem worked perfectly. Okay. Okay. Okay. And Pinsomniac, thank you very much for clipping the push-ups there. That was great. He's drinking a lot of water. That's all. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. When you come back in, let me know, and let's switch over to the other scene. I guess plan to start off on the other scene. It's the never-ending water bottle. It's kind of like Archer when he holds up his biggest, and he has to finish his drink first. It's the longest final swig of whatever it is. Can we get a zoom in on the water bottle? enhance. Nice, Cavio got it. Zoom and enhance. Guys, what if he's actually frozen in real time? It has a wave in it. Yeah, that's a good point. The water does actually have a wave. You know, the stuff as a kid that used to really bother my mind was one of those things that goes back and forth, and it has a liquid in it that moves like a really slow wave, as opposed to an actual wave. I don't know how to describe that any better, but that was just one of those things that I could stare at for a while as a kid because I couldn't wrap my brain around what I was seeing. George had him do push-ups and it killed him. Way to go, George. Alright, I am switching over to here. uh apparently that did not work i i'm gonna come over to sources and i'm gonna turn off your screen turn it back on and there we go but you're on the chat now okay you're back okay i'm going back to chat oh wait wait no no now we're in chat okay enhance and we can't see his table okay cool are you ready for round two and and i could just do the enhance all day enhance enhance and scene change coming up go action boom look at that timing that's awesome like a pro uh do i see a dragon slayer in the background, Beatles fan in Arizona says. You see Space Ace. Space Ace. Do you want to go into what the difference between Dragon Lair and Space Ace by any chance? Sure. One's in the Dragon Lair and one's in Space. Apparently the push-ups really took something out of that PC3K, because when you screamed it last week, you were much more in-depth about the difference. Oh. Yeah. I'm pretty pissed right now. Well, Pink Ninja Man has already redeemed ten more for this next game. Alright. What's the game? What's the game? Tell me the rules. You know, why don't we make it fun? First one, so you get three balls, and first person to disc multiball. and this one you don't stop as soon as you drain plunge right away it doesn't matter if you do it on your third ball or your first you just want to be the first one to initiate it okay? beat the whole game in one ball says Dice alright and I'm going to count it down 5 4 3 2 1 go just plunge huh slap save I'm gonna beat you like Pinsania All right, so I have opened my recognizer. Mine is open. I got one in, two in. Three in. I got three in, but I got... Oh, so do I. Darn it, darn it. End it, end it, end. Okay, give me the ball, give me the ball. Where's the money, Lebowski? There's four Four One more Five One more Now I need one more apparently Cause it was seven and I started it Got it Wait you also got it? All right, we got to give it to chat. Chat, who got it? Who got it first, chat? It's coming down to the wire here. Who initiated it first? The problem is I'm delayed, so they won't see mine. MPT3 got it. MPT3 got it by seconds, okay? And there's the delay you got to feed in as well. But Caviel says by a country mile. All right, I've got ten push-ups I've got to do. Yeah, yeah, I let it drain. Well done. Virtual high five. And, all right, scene change. I'm going to put it back over to the chat. Action. Perfect timing again. Ten push-ups coming out. Let's see. Let's see. I don't know. 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10. I only do good form. I thought. You're obviously not a golfer. Thank you, Mr. Kennedy, for getting my Big Lebowski references. All right. Switching back over to the main display. And action. And that's to help... Yes, yeah. Also, Jedi McMuffin says, exclamation point, help. Jedi, what's going on? Pez Johnson, welcome to the stream. Anything I type tonight is sponsored by Peach Crown Royal, because work sucked today. Woo, that's awesome. Jedi McMuffin, oh, nothing. Was curious what your bot commands were. Oh, go to exclamation point commands, and you'll get the entire list of everything that's out there. There's, I want to say, at least 50 different commands. There's a lot. We are gathered here today. Somebody typed in exclamation point, Roboctopus. We are gathered here today to commemorate the life and untimely death of our beloved Roboctopus, taken from this server far too soon. Though you are gone, your functionality will never be forgotten. F in chat. Be right back. The system is acting up. I'm sorry, Beatles fan in Arizona. Manu as a voyeur. The Pinsomniac just clipped that one. I might have to hold on to that clip. Jedi McMuffin, thank you, I think, for being the first person ever to use the multi-pass command in chat. Multi-pass? Yes, it responds with, she knows it's a multi-pass. Come on, you know that movie, right, Manu? Oh, no. Oh my God You don know where the multi reference comes from Hang on hang on I usually on the side of the chat where I make fun of you Yes I know I jumping on this one Multi-pass. Thank you, Mr. Kennedy. Come on. Not that it is the fifth element. Otherwise known as die-hardened space. Yes. One of my... Actually, I'm going to go... I'm going to grab something. Let's switch back over to chat for a second. That's a Chris Tucker movie, right? I like it. It's a good movie. I just forgot. This guy here. Wait a second. This happens to be one of my favorite films, and I used to collect movie memorabilia. So that is Mila Jovovich, Gary Oldman, and Bruce Willis inside this amazing Fifth Element poster. I will hang it back up at some point. Alright. Here we go. So that was Titanic, right? Yeah, dice, of course. It's okay, Manu, I didn't realize that was fifth. Pink Ninja Man, come on! I mean, Manu... I can't say that. He's not young. How about that? I didn't think. I should have known that one. But Pink Ninja Man, yeah, nothing. Anyway, you guys, by the way, there are several other streamers on this evening. There is, of course, MPT3K, and then there's the Pinsomniac, Pink Ninja Man, and Jedi McMuffin. You guys, if you have not checked out these other Twitch streamers, you definitely should do so. Give them a follow. Check out their streams. throw them a sub if you feel like supporting them, especially right now. I know everybody is looking for extra content as they're stuck at home, and it's kind of fun doing things like what we're doing right now. Like, I was just so excited that MP3K was willing to put some time into helping figure this out, because this was funky. I got to say, it was a little weird to get it set up and dialed in, and I think it's been super fun all evening that we've been working on this. So, hold on. Youth Impaired, I've seen The Fifth Element and enjoyed it, but it has been a long time. Pink Ninja Man, totally understand. Does MPT3K have a Xenon on his virtual? Yes, he does, okay? Wait, wait, Xenon. Oh, that's the one that goes ooh, ah, ooh, ah. Yes, a lot of... sounds. Yes, and the tube shot, exactly, yeah. And, oops, excuse me. Negative, I am a meat popsicle. That's from the fifth, by the way, have you seen the fifth element? MPG 3K. Yes? Okay. Yeah, I did. I also saw it in the theater. Bro. And then, I have probably seen it 200 times since then. It used to be my go-to-bed movie. I don't know if you guys have ever done that, where you have a movie that you typically like fall asleep within a certain amount of time on. And I've had two of those in my life, which was the fifth element. I would almost always fall asleep right about the part where it says negative. I am a meat popsicle shortly before the moment where when you use your emote to do a hats off. It's actually from that where when Corbin opens the door, there's a person who's been sitting there all night with a hat that looks like a hallway. So if he happened to look through the eye hole to see if there's anybody out there, you would just see the hallway. So he was... My name is Inigo Montoya. Sorry. You can't watch me. We're waiting for Chorkizu. Chorkizu, welcome to the stream. So he's wearing this hat, and the second he opens the door, the guy looks up kind of like he fell asleep in that position and holds a gun up. And Bruce Willis kind of understands very quickly what happened, and he's like, you've been there for a long time? Yeah, yeah. And the guy is, he's a tweaker, so it's a, I love that movie. Anyway, that's about the moment I fell asleep to it every night. And the other one was Harry Potter, the very first one. I used to... I was going to say, you know, George, at my age, pretty much any movie I try and watch, I fall for it. Okay, let's play. Let's do this. Switching back over, scene change. What are we doing? Action. Look at that. Loving the timing. Cheesy Wiz, no, you did not miss the dueling trons. Here we go. All right. Now, what are we doing this time? Do we want to try to get to Quora multiball? Do you remember how to get to Quora multiball? There. Yes. And you hit that enough times, and that will light Quora on the scoop. There. That's it. All right. So first one to Quora multiball, you only have three balls to do it. Oh, wait a second. I have to drain my existing ball. Hold on. I never started my third ball. where's wax when you need him i know it's really hard to tell the difference okay now i'm letting it go shoot again is gone bonus you're you're although your play field is at 60 and mine is at not quite when are you oh 60 frames per second right yeah the ball movement of mine is going to be less organic than yours. Eh, I think it still looks pretty dang good. Yeah, yeah. This is good. All right, here we go. First to initiate, that means start Quora. All right, here we go. Five, four, three, two, one, go. Did you take a skill shot? I did take my chute again though Immediately Uh oh Sounds like somebody's got a case of the moon booze Wolfman is here So who do you want to be? Keith Elwin or Zach Sharp? I guess I'll be Zach I can't help it. I'm like a happy person. So... Yes, he is super sad. Not sad, sorry, he is amazing, and I don't know if he, I'm not saying that he suffers from depression or anything. He's just, he's very quiet, right? He's like the walk quietly and carry a big stick kind of person, and that is not me. I'm close. I am not close at all. Oh! Oh, how did I think that was going to friggin' drop? I mean, bounce pass. That's the bonehead thing to do. My ball one is always decent. Oh, I saw the light cycle. Damn it. Well, I purposefully went into light cycle because you can work on it. Yep. You can build on Cora? Wait, I'm almost there. Shh. Shut the front door. I just drained. Don't drink, don't drink. Don't drink, don't drink, don't drink. How do you like hearing me in your ear with a hole? Darn it, I cannot get in there. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh my god, no, no, no. Just post-transfer, thank you. Oh, fourth lit, fourth lit. Core's lit. She is lit. Well, you still gotta start it. That sucks, though. I am... Ah! Got it. Got it. Excellent job. Excellent job. George 2020, darn it, I cannot get in there. Dice. All right, dice. I will definitely do those push-ups. You guys, if you're just joining us, interesting... Okay, that's great, Pinsomniac. 20 push-ups, then. This is totally beginner's level. So here's how this goes. We are dueling, and whoever loses the duel has to do the push-ups. So there's 20 push-ups. Anything else that gets added at this point going forward will get put onto the next one. And Wolfman asks, which one is the virtual pin? That right there, I think, is a testament to how awesome your virtual pin is. I don't think he's being serious. I think he's being a turkey Wolfman also says he wants a toilet paper roll so Pets Johnson said he said Elwynn has a big stick Pets, thank you so much alright, 20 pushups, hold on but we have to switch back over MPT3K, scene change action okay you do your pushups I think I'm going to channel Nick Stein. I'm going to go get my Nick Stein outfit. Okay. I don't know who Nick Stein is. That's Sheepwalla. Okay. The Nick Stein Sheepwalla outfit. Oh, you're going to do the hoodie. I got it. Okay, cool. One sec. I mean, I don't need a toilet paper roll myself, but if you're giving them away, I wouldn't say no. I also wouldn't say no. Every time I go to the store, my wife's like, I mean, at this point, if there is toilet paper, get it. That's just, it's a standing order. Oh, my God. You know what? Don't get toilet paper, guys. You should go and buy a bidet. They are game changers. I am not kidding. Not with a bidet. How do you dry yourself off? It dries. So you want the one that has the heated seat. All right, I'm going to ask you a really technical question on that. Sure, sure. If the fan is going to dry you off, and let's just say, for argument's sake, that the bidet wasn't really thorough in the cleaning, where does the excess debris go? Like, I gotta say, bidets scare me, okay? Well, I think, okay, let's start a game. I'm sorry, before we start a game, there is a butt-cheek flipper just joined the chat, and I can think of nothing more perfect. Butt-cheek flipper, welcome to the stream. All right, scene change. Action. Okay. We will poop normal. We don't all of a sudden need a year's worth. Yo. Yo. And wow, I lost internet, and I came back to a chat, and a really weird... I can tell you my wonderful bidet story. Oh, yeah, that's right. I've got to drain these guys. Okay, what is the next challenge? Yeah. Does the chat want to give us a challenge? Or, George, I'm sure you have... I could probably come up with more. I mean, the next one I would say is Zeus. Okay. I'm getting ball save after ball save right now. So since Zeus is the next challenge... Okay. I will share my today's story. Actually, I'll share it when we start, because it seems to be I'll play better if I can not focus on... All right, do you have a ball queued up? I have a ball in the shooter lane. All right, five, four. Three. Starting Zeus. Two. I don't know how to use my fingers to count down. One. Go. All right. So I went out to my buddy's. Did I drain already? We'll see. I went out to my buddy's place in Austin. Oh, you've got to be kidding me. I just drained, so don't feel bad. And I've only got one letter. All right. How many letters do I have? I went out to my buddy's house in Boston. Oh, my God. Two letters. three letters as I tell no no no did you drain three no okay you haven't drained three times yet not yet I got a couple hours he has a crap I drained two balls I can't I can't tell him the day story and alright so I just started light cycle and I've got one letter left to complete this crap I just said crap that's so appropriate um he He has a bidet, so I avoided using it the first day. All right, so I just started Zeus. Oh, no. So you're done. No, you got a complete Zeus, I thought. Oh, no, it was just start Zeus. Oh, it was just start Zeus. And I just drained my third vault. I can't tell this bidet story. I failed. I failed. But I'll tell the story anyway. And how many push-ups do I need? I just completed Zeus, so regardless. And no push-ups. So that was just a straight up, just me versus you. Okay. Screw you, Nick Stein. The Nick Stein did not help. Okay, by the way, so that was hit the four Zeus targets, Z-U-S-E. And then once the mode initiates, you just have to hit them all again. And then that lights Zeus solid, which you can see on my playfield. Zeus right there is lit solid. Now, I would like to hear your bidet story, sir. Well, it's just a continued education. Can you stack? How much can you stack? I think most of the modes you can stack. Things get a little... Ow. That's awesome. Dice, just gifted a cheer one sub to Pinball Wiz. Pinball Wiz, both welcome to the stream, and Dice, you're amazing. A gentleman and a scholar. And Pinball Wiz, wait, really? Thank you. Pinball Wiz, enjoy those emotes. Use them to your heart's content. T-Rex Pinball, welcome to the stream. And I think you can Flynn, Jem, Clue, Zeus, all four of those. also recognize... Sorry. That is so loud. And then add... Hold on a sec, Dice. And then Tron and Recognizer. I think all of those you can do all at the same time. Quora and Light Cycle you can do at the same time. And Disc, you can, I think, do anything... God damn it, man! I swear you guys riff on me 13 or 14 more times, I'm out of here. Al Nautimus, welcome to the stream. The only one it's weird with is disc multiball. You can't, I think, run disc along with Quora and or Light Cycle, but you can do Quora with Light Cycle. And Dramatic Hamster being so dramatic. I got to go back. Dice, thank you again. Dice just gifted another tier one sub to Al Anonymous 43 subs in the channel Dice, once again, that is a hats off to you, I almost fell down I'm going to need yet a third beer I think this evening and Al Anonymous, enjoy those emotes they're quite fun and they all have sounds associated with them which are playing so loud in my headset, I actually can't think I feel like I'm one of the characters in the short story Harrison Bergeron with the loud sound thing that stops you. All right, I've got to turn that down. Thank you, Al, for that. Oh, I see what's happening to you because I'm watching this stream. No, no. The problem is you're coming through kind of quiet, so I have to turn it up loud enough so I can hear you, but everything else is so loud, it's awesome. I can boost me, though. If you can boost yourself, that would be amazing. Yeah. A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, P, A, B, C, D, E, F, G. Nope, not at all. Remember, I can't hear you through the stream microphone. It's the Zoom microphone. No, so Caviel, thank you, by the way, for redeeming the highlighted message. And the problem is if I turn down Windows, I lose the other sounds as well, and I need to hear those. I can either turn down all of the sounds going to my headset or I can turn them all up, but I need my news to be louder so that way I can turn everything down and they're more consistent. And it's louder on your end. That's right. So you did just make yourself louder to the stream. Okay, I don't want to make myself too loud, though. The stream is, if this is loud enough, then I won't touch it anymore. Zoom. Yes, Alnonymous. We have a Zoom meeting going while we're doing this so we can communicate. And then we set up an RTMP server so that way MPT3K could stream to my server, which is hosted on my laptop. And then I have that as a media source in OBS. And then I overlaid my stuff on top of his media source. And we did some cool playing around with shared desktops to get everything to align. And then I stream it back out to Twitch. and then to make it even more fun you can then combo that with something like Restream so that way you can stream to multiple channels at once so it's pretty technically cool but the bidet story I apologize that was like a 20 minute diversion digression well all I really wanted to say about it was that my buddy had one and I didn't use it the first I was at his house for a weekend and then the next day I went in the bathroom and I said, hey, bro, what's the deal with the bidet? And he walks in and he looks and he goes, it's a game changer. And he walks out. All right. All right. Challenge accepted. Challenge accepted. Target acquired. So basically, you know, I sat down, I did my thing, and then I'm like, all right, let me try it out. And this just has an auto button. So I hit the auto button. first thing you do you hear things are starting up and you're like the anticipation is just insane it's like what's gonna happen it was the most amazing thing that ever happened to me since I got my ear I had an impacted ear so my ear doctor had to suck the wax out of my ear. Good stuff. I have always wanted to do that, but I have not done it yet. It's also bucket list. Bucket list. Yeah. So when I was done, of course, here's what you do when you're done, because it does go, ooh. It's not enough to blow debris around is what you're getting at? Oh, my God. I was thinking a hair dryer or maybe like a leaf blower kind of a situation. George, no, I didn't slowly lift off the stool. No, it's not that bad. But, of course, you don't believe it at first. So I went, I got some TP, and I went, I just wanted to check. I just wanted to check. Okay, how good did you do? And I just did a little check. and I came back and it was like nothing it was like so I put it back on the roll can somebody please clip the nothing the nothing from FBT3K because that's going to be his noose round when he logs into my stream going forward awesome oh wait wait wait really quick Cheesy, I want to throw this out. Cheesy was going to ask how we did it, that we just said it, and he was like, wow. Cheesy, if you're interested, join the Discord. I'm going to throw together a document because the few videos that are out there don't help, and what's on OBS isn't enough to actually get you there. You have to intuit a little bit more. You have to understand a little bit more of what's going on because the directions are not simple. and it was genuinely kind of complicated to set everything up so I'm going to go through and I haven't gotten to the point where I feel comfortable doing videos like MPT3K so I was just going to throw together a Word document and throw that up on the Discord so anybody else who wants to do a dual stream like this while we're all in isolation slash quarantine is totally capable of doing it once you figure it out It's not that difficult. And as you guys can see, I think it works out really, really well. Yeah, I think, George, whenever you're ready, we can do, I also have Harlem Glow Trotters, and I also have TNA, and I don't remember the rest. And Jedi McMuffin is going to try to recreate, not like wiping a marker, eh, Caviel says. George, it's not like Tim the Toolman Taylor worked on the pressure for every bidet Dice, that's how I imagined it next one no no Tim Somiak, thank you so much for clipping that that is going to that's definitely going to go into my next big stream summary nothing that's happening that's so happening and T-Rex says might be able to duel with you at some point a friend has a Tron and we've streamed it with another friend but that's on hold with the current situation also a JP may resolve out in a few days, awesome, T-Rex that's great, I probably won't have Tron for much longer though, making a trade happen either this weekend I think or next assuming I don't have COVID-19 anytime soon and oh, so the next one Pinsomniac mentioned earlier How about first... Too big for you to handle on your own. I lost my train of thought because that was so loud. Wow, that was really distracting. Have you read Harrison Bergeron, the short story, by any chance? No? Okay. I got to put a reference to that on the Discord as well. It's a wonderful short story by the same guy who wrote Slaughterhouse-Five. I can't think of his name right now. Dirty Toes, welcome to the stream. The next challenge is first person to complete Clue. And you initiate Clue by spelling Clue in the inlanes, and then you have to hit the scoop to start it, and then you actually have to complete all of the shots that have Clue on them. So the scoop, the right orbit, the left orbit, and the Quora shot. So this one's a little bit tougher. Jedi, thank you. Kurt Vonnegut. Appreciate it. And T-Rex, I have not gotten Portal, unfortunately. I almost got it before the stream started. I completed Flynn, Jem, Clue, Zeus, Quora, and Light Cycle, and Tron. I just didn't complete Recognizer and Disc. I was so close, and I made it about three quarters of the way through the Disc part of Sea of Simulation. and drained almost immediately. It was actually embarrassing. Okay, so are you down for Clue, or we can try something else? Clue it is. Clue, let's do Clue. Dirty Toes, I'm just going to get to Portal before then. That's the hope. All right, here we go. Five, four, three, two, one, go. All right, so you kind of want to hit... You've got to spell clue. So any... That's awesome. No ball save. I just drained a ball. So that left ramp, I feel like, and the ramp from the upper flipper are kind of your friends. All right. Yeah. Come on. Can you brick the right ramp? It's still... If there is a way to brick a shot, I'm sure you can definitely do it. All right. I got a jump shot. I never get... And I don't. Fuck. I never get jump shots. Here we go. I just have to hit the scoop. There it is. Now, I've started clue, so now four shots to complete. There's one. I've also got light cycle lit, so I'm going to go ahead and hit that if I can. I've got light cycle lit. Nope, instead I'm going to drain. And I lose out on clue. So I guess on this next one I have to get back into clue. So I see what I'm doing wrong. I Oh I totally misunderstood The inlanes yeah I'm on vault three And I can't get one more in lane Oh you lose all your inlanes when you drain Trying to hit the ramps here Alright give me a shot Oh It gave me clue Wait what I'm in clue okay I'm in a multi you're in clue and a multiball that's a good place to be inconceivable I'm not sure if I know when I got it oh I gotta hit the scoop Uh, so apparently I have to keep spelling clue over and over again. Vertzilla, welcome to the stream. You can extend colored borders to the playfield cans for next time. Uh-oh, I think I have one more shot for the playfield cans. Oh. There, thank you, Vertzilla. Uh, so I guess I need to keep doing this. Can I lose clue? So I already lost clue, and I'm trying to get back into it. Let's see. I don't know how many times you have to spell clue on your inlanes. Oh, for the second time? Come on. Maybe you can get it on a mystery. All right, it looks like two, because I just relit clue. Crap. Got it. All right, so you restarted it? Wait. No. All right, I just started it again. Oh, crap. I'm laughing. All right, there's one shot. Two shots. Come on. Come on, baby. Two shots. I just need one more shot. I'm in core now. Okay, Clue. And done! Clue's done. Yes. I got it by getting spotted shots on the inlanes. Bravo, sir. Hats off. That was a good one. That was a really good challenge, too, because it was not easy. We had to get back into it. All right, catching up on chat here. Let's switch back over to the chat screen. Boom. Those theme changes are perfection. Very well done. Okay. Very well done, George. And back at you. Were there any push-ups, by the way, that Manu has to do? I'm just double-checking here. No, there was no push-ups. Okay. Can you extend the colored borders to the play field next time? Titanics, yes, we can. Honestly, this was, I wouldn't say last second, but it's like we were so focused on making it the technology function that the look and feel, there's going to be a lot of room for fixing that later, I think. Yeah, he had it lit. Can I get in on the Zoom meeting so I can coach Manu? MPTCK, do you want Insomniac on the Zoom? I need it. He can come in. I'll be able to hear him. You'll be able to hear him. The stream, unfortunately, will not be able to hear you. No. It's okay. It's okay if the stream doesn't hear him. Yeah. Hear him. Hold on a second. George, I wasted a lot of time because I forgot the inlanes like clue, so I was hitting the shots and wondering why I wasn't getting into clue. But then when I got it, I got it pretty quick. Hold on a sec. I guess you don't need to see the screen anymore, so I'm going to stop sharing. Oh, that was... No, no, no. The problem is that I couldn't get out the invite, unfortunately, while I was sharing my screen. So now I'm going to go back over here and jump into Discord. And Pensomniac, this is incoming here. This is insanely fun to do side-by-side trying to hit these goals. I don't know how many places have two pinball machines exactly the same next to each other, but if you ever get a chance to do it, guys, try it. Sorry. Look at her butt. That is Siri Bai. Welcome to the stream Now I going to go back to sharing my screen so that way you can get your feedback here mbt3k okay or yeah i can hear my phone okay so we back okay and dirty toes i afraid to get too many people in on the on the zoom meeting for coaching at this point uh how many points do i need to make george do push-ups mid-game cheesy whiz you can uh you can check it's uh it's so it's tomfoolery points are the stream points at the bottom uh and i think it's 1200 points uh accrued uh to to do 10 push-ups and the push-ups go to whoever uh whoever ends up losing the challenge and jedda a virtual says jedda mcmuffin owned one for a couple of months it gets old very quickly but it is fun uh to place once in a while if it's set up fast for it's a i don't actually i think i missed what was being referenced there uh you can get a lane completion per mystery there's one by me only asking $1,300. Okay, so that's all in reference to a conversation about a pin. I think I missed what the pin was. Let's see, F14 Tomcat, yeah, fund system 11. I'm not a person that can tell you value. Oh, F14, got it. And Vertzilla did have an F14, so that all makes sense. Sari says don't do it. Oh, yes. And, oh, and make changes. That would be a great, Anyway, so Pinsomniac is on, and I could give him remote control, and he could come in and make the scene changes happen, so that way we don't have to. That's actually a really cool idea. Ah, Cheesy Wiz just redeemed ten push-ups. Okay, for the next challenge. All right. We'll do next challenge, because that was a little late. You have to do the push-ups kind of like while we're talking about the challenge or during the challenge for that one. So for the next one, we'll do ten push-ups. Okay. Okay. Dirty Toes is in. He's like, I want in too. I could do scene changes and stuff. All right, we'll work this out next time. It might have actually been... You guys realize you're seeing this stream late, right? So all I can do is get strategic help. I can't really get... So now we have Pinsomniac in my ear. Unless you're sitting next to George, you're still doing it late. Okay. Okay, so what challenge are we going to do next here? I don't know. Maybe Nick can come up. I mean, Pentomniac can come up with a challenge. But you have to repeat it. Oh, you know what? No, gem. That's a really tough one. First person to initiate gem, which I think is three different gem shots. Okay, gem shots being? Switch back. Ready? Okay, so Jem up here, if you can see, it's that shot right there. That, yes. Yeah, they're all really, really close together. All right, so next challenge, who can game over the fastest? That's cheesy, Wiz. I'm going to move my table over a hair. There we go. All right, so we know we need to make three shots on the gem, and then after this it will be first to maybe see a simulation, if you wanted to try that as well. Isn't it impossible? In mysteries, that's good. And do you know, and Pinsomniac was saying you can get gems. By the way, the chat can't hear you, unfortunately. But do you know how to light mystery by any chance? How do you like mystery? That's a great question. Right? Okay. Or first to 25 million. That's actually not a bad one. So not just high score, but the first to a specific score. T-Rex says it's the right orbit. I've been waiting for me to get to 25 million. If you want to get a ball loaded, you do. Count down. Five, four, three, two, one, go. Shoot, I full plunged. So it's impossible to hit that gem shot from that flipper if you can bounce it off the Tron targets. I think. I'm asking Pensamia right now. All right. I'm going to start pushing this thing around. Four. Yeah. Okay. Do you guys like that Laz, by the way? 500,000. You got it last. Oh, it's none of them. I'm trying. Over here. Got one gem. I'm on ball three. Oh, no. Get out of there. All right. I just drained. Whew. Tintamia, should I go for life cycle? Get some kind of multiball gun? No. Got second gem shot. Well, I'm done. I haven't got there yet. I think it was two lasses. By the way, you can get it from the top flip. Oh, you're done, and then you finish three balls. I've drained all of them. God. That is a really hard one. So, during practice, I managed to hit gem twice from bouncing it off the O on Tron. I did it twice in a row. So, it's not impossible on this one. And that's actually Don't Panic Flippers, the guy who told me you can get that gem shot from that bounce. You can't hit that gem shot from this flipper. You can't. Oh, yeah. All right. I got two different microphones. We might have to split those ten push-ups. I am on ball three, and I have not gotten there. Well, I'm not over yet. Do it again. Get back down. Is this better? Get up there! I got to watch George. Not yet, not yet. If I don't do it, I think we got to split them. wait we still do it give me gem that was gem I just started gem boom got it got it in the mystery alright no splitting loser does pushups okay bank shot the bank shot is very doable T-Rex absolutely that is another way to do it that's 10 pushups before you do the pushups can we go into chat so I too can be a voyeur yeah okay and all right yes fertility yes i did win that one i'm ready can i tilt this down i shouldn't even bother i'm gonna catch up on chat here uh warner black and white george because he has not tilt bob wow sary by that that was uh that was that That was a great statement right there. You just made your third grade English teacher super proud. And I meant that, by the way, in the best way possible. I realize this, I said that I sounded like a complete jerk, but I didn't mean it like a jerk. That was a funny bit of sarcasm. Did you just tap out? I just did tap out. You good? Okay. It's only 1130. We've only been going an hour. We've still got plenty. We've got plenty to do here. So you can get it from the top flipper. It's just tight and easier with the disc open. Oh, good call. With the disc open, it is way easier. It's a bigger target. I never thought about that. I take it back. I don't want to be in the Zoom. I feel like I'm missing. You are missing 33% of the conversation, though. My third grade English teacher was a fake. Mrs. Thompson was amazing. In all caps. Sari, I also, I think your third grade English teacher was great. We'll pay back George with the air horn. Oh, thank you, Caviel. Yes. Okay. Nick is requesting remote control. Okay, this could go wrong. You've been approved. You've been approved. And there is clapping. Uh-oh. You're doing things. All right. So, in the meantime, MPT3K, what is the next challenge? Oh, my God. That mic drop was so loud. Thank you, Caviel. The first next challenge is the first person whoever in the chat wins who can name these symbols. Go. The artist formerly known as Prince and Michael Jackson. Boom. I didn't say chat, but I feel awesome. Alright. I don't know. You're the one controlling my computer right now. So, George, here's what we're going to do. You know what? Wait, hold on. Pits Omniac, don't. Let's just leave it. I will deal with the really loud noises today, and I will figure this out. I'm really scared that the stream is going to drop or something. Michael Jackson had a symbol? I'm also surprised. Yeah. I mean, kind of. Dirty Toes feels like he was robbed. okay sorry so uh mpt3k you mentioned a challenge um light as many as possible Yeah, yeah, we're getting instructions I guess, I don't know about bottom up but maybe it would just be easier to say try and get to see a simulation and light and light them all I don't know if that's what you were getting at MP23K I don't know Uh-huh. So I don't... I don't know the... I don't know the rules too much, so me getting the Sea of Stimulation will be tough. Okay. You got me? Tinsomniac's going to help Manu with the rules, and it's going to be first one to Sea of Stimulation. And... All right, first... And Caviel then throws out first to 15 million as many games as needed, keeps you both playing the whole time. You like that one? Let's do that first. Let's get a little bit more warming up, and maybe we'll do the last one first to see a simulation. Okay, let's do it. Scene change? Help. Oh, scene change. And action. And there we go. All right, guys. I totally just faced... Oh, first the 15 million. Done. And that doesn't mean... So there's no waiting on ball drains. It's just you've got three balls, get to 15 million, do it as quickly as possible. All right. Five, four, three, two, one, go. I'd be better if I actually started in the name. So I'm going to go for Lifecycle and Quora. I've got some extra shots of that and Clue all together. And get me a... Damn it. I messed up my end of the line, but it's okay. Yeah. Okay, I got light circle. End of the line combo starts at, what, 850? Or does it depend? Okay. Man, I cannot hit the advanced quarter shot at all right now. There it is. Damn. Okay. Come on. Come on. Let me go clue. Cora? Don't tilt. Oh, good! Oh, God. That was a huge move I just did. That was bad. Yeah. There is an actual tilt bump. Yeah. I don't have it terribly tight, but if I do a big move like I just did, it's going to rattle around. One more to start. There we go. Oh! That was insane. Okay. Let's see control. Okay. Yeah. Sometimes the shots get a little weird. I'm going to be patient here and wait to restart disc multiball. Just restarted, so now it's a two ball for me. Oh, should I go for disc? Get up there. Got it. What's that, 500? Why was that only five? Hey, Tanya, I'm not sure if I should try that friggin' disc, but maybe I should. Here we go. All right, being really patient here. Cora, that's not good. So I'm at ten. I don't know how you're doing. Zeus. Oh, you got it. What the fuck? Oh. Yeah. I'm sorry. I don't actually. Oh. Oh, you tilted on your third ball? Oh, yeah. I just got it. Damn. Boom. Well, he would have got it before me. 15. Yes! Caviar says George is getting smoked. Oh, look at that. Yeah, you were at 10. All right, were there any tilt-bob confirmed? And there was no push-ups on that one. All right, so that's an easy one for you then. All right, so that was 15 mil. We could just keep doing that over and over again if you want. Here, and I feel like doing this so the chat can see. Because I'm... Oh, that was ball one, too. I mean, not to add insult to injury there. So, just so the chat can see, I'm going to do this. I'm going to show you, I'm going to take a picture of the Tilt Bob in there. And you guys will get to see the level I have it set at. Tilt Bob? there is a tilt pop in here there's no question mine is still still but none of my cameras are on auto oh you know what that one is hold on alright alright we're doing picture comparisons yeah but it but my feet are like on slideys they're not on rubber so I could drag the machine across the floor if I want, which I did. All right. There we go. Damn it. Damn it. Boom. If I hadn't tilted the first ball. I'm sorry. You can't say anything else about that. I took a picture. I showed it. They are equivalent. I think we're good. Yeah. What? What was that? Why is the wire disconnected? Yeah. That, what you're looking at next to it, is one of the contactors which makes the fizzle noise. I saw Tron's tilt-bob before George removed it. Because I knew that somebody one day would ask me to confirm the presence of said tilt-bob. All right, next challenge. We can... I don't think there were any questions. We've already done Quora. We haven't done first to Light Cycle Multiball. That's going to be a quick one. Ooh, no, that is a tough one. I think it's way easier to finish Quora than Light Cycle. Light Cycle to finish requires two three-way combos. But it's also really easy to get back into Light Cycle, so maybe we could do that one. Wait. Light cycle to finish requires... Two three-way combos. So think of it, the easiest way for me to think of it is hit Quora, then hit the ramp shot off of the upper flipper, and then hit it into the Tron scoop on the way down. Yes. You've got to do that twice. During a multiball. During a multiball, yes. I'm learning a lot. All right. Let's do it up. Here we go. Oh, God. Ball at the ready. And counting down. Five, four, three, two, one. We're plunged. So, are you trapping up when you do that? Yes, I would trap up. That's just me, though. But I can't stage. I can't stage. No. I can't stage even if I could stage. You know what? That's going to give me a recognizer. Oh, I got a ball of stuck. Yeah, thank you. That was wonderful. So, Pinsomniac's on there. George is about to drain. Well before I have any intention of draining. All right, there's a freebie there on the plunge. We're going to start Clue. And it gave us the Zeus. So we're in Zeus. Clue. It's a bowl of strategy, Cotton. Let's see if it pays off for us. I took those shots. Those shots are clear, though. I need left orbit. I need left orbit. All right, left ramp. There we go. And four a shot. I'm in bad shape. And now we have light cycle lit. Which of course I miss Oh come on I can't play under pressure like that Alright here we go Light cycle I'm strapping though I'm pulling off crazy cool moves There we go Backflip into light cycle Now two three way combos You know what? That was depressing. That was depressing. That was depressing. Did I get it? No, I did not get it. Yeah. Yeah, you did. I started Light Cycle, but I didn't complete it, so it's still flashing in the center right there. All right, finish any multiball gives you a choice of strategy. Oh, that's a really good one, T-Rex. I like that. So next one is any multiball. I think George is up like three games to two or something like that. Well, come on. So does Manu. Yeah, but I own this and 400 other ones. Nice, it gave me a light cycle hit. There's another, and Quora missed it. Oh, almost got a free gem shot there. I'm going for it again. I don't care if this one doesn't count. I'm going to do much better this time. Wow, I have to hit the gem shot. But... Boy, those... If it was Zeus, I'd be doing really well right now. Wow! In order to start Light Cycle, no joke, I need to hit the gem shot. It's the only Light Cycle lit right now. Got it. Don't flip away. Don't flip away. so I can try the bank shot because the bank is real I gotta say one thing though in my defense there is a little bit of flipper lag always inherent really struggling here to complete this mode if I was in virtual reality though there's actually no flipper lag yeah because you can't have lag in VR and when you render to VR it just makes sense that the updates are immediate here we go advanced core nope so my preferred way of playing this cabinet from now on is in VR not only is it no flipper lag but man let's try in the bank VR. It's like... You know, it's... I've done it a couple times. It looks weird, though. If you check my stream... Oh, I hit a gem shot. Give me a gem. Give me gem. Give me gem. Yes! Yeah. I just did two games completely, but George has won. But no, like I was saying, when I play in VR, when I hit the flipper, the flipper engages. I lost the playfield? Oh, you lose the torch? Yeah. Oh, almost got the bait, too. Oh, no. Look at that. I'm... You can't read that, is there? Oh. Hold on. Get in there. I can no longer hit the core shot for whatever reason. All right. It seems as though, as the challenges have been getting harder, George is doing better. So... Yeah, but I can't hit Quora at all right now. Insomnia goes, so let's make this really simple. Flip the ball twice. I can do that. I can do that. I might struggle on that one. Houston, we have a problem. I think I can handle that. All right. Here we go. Switching over to stream. This is going to be really fun. We'll do... And going... So let's close the stream lab group. Close the players group. Playfield is good. Doing this all with my left hand right now, which is great, because I am not a lefty. So putting that there, and then putting it back to... Thank you. Is this the first time you're seeing how I have everything set up? There we go. It's still going. Here, let me watch. There we go. Okay, good. We both failed on that one. I apologize for making everyone go through that awful experience of me not being able to hit any shots. Or see the play field. I played two games to your one. I played two games to your one game. I mean, I was taking my sweet time. So, yeah, that doesn't seem like a good comparison. Okay. The next one was first one to complete any multiball. There is Quora, which requires completion of the gem shot. There is Disc Multiball, which requires hitting the disc a ridiculous number of times. You just keep hitting the disc, and then when the Recognizer comes up, you hit that. And then when it goes back down, you hit the disc one time to get the super. Or there is Light Cycle, and Light Cycle requires the two three-way combos. All that to drain out on the LC Core Sacklet. Yeah, I know, T-Rex, that was awful. Clue is not a multiball. Clue is not a multiball, no. So those are the three multiballs you could get into, though. Okay. Are you ready for one of those? Which one? Which one should I pick? My coach is telling me. All right. Okay. Guys, here we go. First one to complete any multiball. Caviel, this was a great idea. Count it down. Five. 4, 3, 2, 1, go! Go, Shazam. Oh, shoot, it felt like it just launched it instead of letting me use my plunger. Here we go. Look at that! Look at that! Okay, did it on my right? I know, I'm completely... It was a move. It was definitely a move. I will give you that. George's tilt sucks. George took a picture of someone else's tilt. Yeah, I can't actually flip my left flipper very well. It's jammed up against the table next to it. George took a picture of someone else's tilt. What's he going for? I got light cycle. Oh. I am in light cycle right now. Oh, he got it before me. Yeah, but you got to finish any one of them. Oh, jeez. Really? All right. Oh, that looks bad right there. Alright, let me see if I can trap. Well, it's, uh... Damn it. Okay. Uh, it's a little hard... Oh my god, this is so hard to flip right now. Wait. Did I finish anything? No. Okay. Yeah, then it's on. I just caught the significance of that statement right there. Alright, so here we go. I'm going for Quora right now. And I lit Quora. As they're pointing me doing this, I'm just going for stupidness. You have to finish the multiple off. Of course. That's fine. That was ball one. I'm going to soft plunge into Quora. No, I'm not. This flipper... Oh, my God. Wait, I got Quora on it again. All right. I got Quora Quora what do I have to do again? or no Gem completes it so I am also in Quora I'm gonna catch this shoot it into Quora and then try to hit Gem right off the bat so hard with these blimpers Got it. Done. Okay. Oh, he got it already. Yep. You finished? Seriously, the gem shot, man, in Korra, I feel like it's the easiest way to do that. What was it? Tron. No, we have not. Three times on the drop targets? Yeah, you just gotta spell Tron a bunch, right? Yep. Complete Tron. Targets to start. Oh. What's the chat back there? Gem shot to win. Thank you to you. And we were both there, too. Yeah I just couldn get control There certain flipper tricks I mean I just suck first of all but there certain flipper tricks that are a little tricky but I just suck I not even going to say it was up to flipper tricks You can do a lot of flipper tricks in virtual though Yeah and I just switched out a ton of rubbers on mine so mine I feel like it has a ridiculous amount of spin right now that it doesn't normally have. There we go. That was a significant move. I will give you that, Insomniac. Gemshot, you could also use the Zen combo to spot one Tron. The Zen combo. T-Rex, can you go into detail about how you can spot a Tron with the Zen? Oh. Interesting. Interesting. All right. I got to drain this third ball here. That's great. I just started inadvertently light cycle and gave myself an extra ball. So let's hope that doesn't happen. You know what? It is way easier to just do that. Oh. Yeah, mine actually says Zen. I didn't even know that was there. Yours does not have that. You can see right here on mine, I've got plastic that says Zen on it. Yeah. Interesting. Can you hit the Zen? Like, how do you purposefully hit the Zen targets? I guess put it into the pops. That's a way. Okay. And Sari has almost completed the throw blanket. Sari, I'm excited to see the progress. I hope you throw that into a picture, rather, into the Discord. Yeah, so say it one more time about the bank. You can bank your Zen switch rollovers, which is this. Uh-huh. So if you do three without hitting your Tron target, you can hit your Tron target and, I'm guessing, collect an entire Tron. Oh, and collect all three Trons. Interesting. That's weird. All right, so I guess you can get two right away. All right, you ready for this? Yeah. All right. Sure. So we're trying to complete Tron, and the easiest way to do it is just to hit the Tron targets on the left. I mean, the most straightforward way, I should say. The other way to do it would be to short plunge and hit your Zen three times before you ever hit the Tron targets. Yeah. That was kind of hard. Okay. Oh, shit. No, no, no. Okay, that's fine. No, no, no. Go, go. I'll plunge. Okay. All right. Oh. Come on, come on, come on. Come back, come back, come back. My plunger was nuts. Soup. Get over there. Get over there. Let's see what it's going to give me here. 500. I bet you I'm going to get gem shock all day now. I got double scoring and I'm not even... So I got the T and the R. Ooh, I just banked for the gem shot. Not helpful. I got the O, I just need the N. Wow, that was so not even close. All right, so... Shoot. Do you get to continue? Or you lose it all. It's a drain. Look at that. Wow, I just accidentally started gem banking. Did I get it? Dang it. Okay. I don't like how this kicks out of the scoop, so I'm going to let it bounce. Shoot. I can't seem to catch it. Okay, here we go. Look at that. I hit Jem again. Yep. I'm murdering Tron and Jem. Come on. All right, I'm starting a light cycle while... What? Am I done? I did it. You did it. All right. Yeah. All right. There's ten push-ups. That's awesome. So, yeah, I know. I completed Gem. Look, Gem is solid, but not Tron. I think that's kind of funny. You may be there. Is it solid? Excellent job, Manu. Ten push-ups. Here we go. I'm going to switch back over to chat here for a second. All right. And action. Here we go. So I can hit Tron, apparently. You can hit Tron. Okay. Which is fun. So we've done Gem. We've done Clue. We've done Zeus. We've done Quora. We have done Disc now. We've tried Light Cycle. Recognizer I think you get for free. We just did Tron. Now you know how to do all of the modes towards Sea of Simulation. Yep. Right? Okay. Yeah. You know what's interesting? So, if you want, I guess before you start a big mode, you can hit Tron targets once and get double scoring. Huh. All right, that's not cool. Huh. All right. Yeah, that's Zen. I got a Zen, like, out of... Yeah, it's actually kind of hard. Like, when you want to hit Zen, it's hard to hit. Yeah. It's really hard to hit Zen. But when you want to get into Flynn's Arcade, you can't help but hit Zen. And Sari says, the next pick I will post is when I'm done, George. I'm so, so, so close now. That's awesome. And congratulations on getting that close. I imagine at this point it's just like, please be done. If it's lit, yes, or just plow through the mall to get to 2x. Okay, so what are we doing next? Do we want to do another score, like trying the first one to hit 15 million, or do you want to do the Sea of Simulation? I say let's go for Sea of Simulation. Now, Sea of... If neither of us get there, it's going to be score... Bottom O. That means that whoever completes the most from the bottom up. Got it. Okay. Now... If we don't get it there. Now, completing means solid? Because I don't think I've ever seen any of these. Well, you just lit Tron solid, but now you've got to get Flynn, Gem, and Clue solid. Okay. See if simulation. See if simulation. You just have to start all the modes, yeah. Yeah. Okay. Yeah, so what we're going to, and just to reiterate what we're doing then, so we're going to, first one, to see a simulation, which means also don't hold up after each ball. And if neither of us get to see a simulation, we're going to gauge it on who completed the most modes from the bottom up. Meaning if you completed Zeus but not Jem, you only get Flynn, assuming Flynn was completed. You don't get Zeus if you skipped Jem. So here we go. Manu. All right, I'm just going to play as best I can, and I don't even know. All right, here we go. You ready? All right, and action. Nope, that was my bad. You said action. I'm like, yeah, let's play. Oh, that's right. That's our keyword for Speed Switch. Okay, ready? Five. Oh, wait, go ahead and hit the start button. Five, four, three, two, one. Let's do this. Business as usual. Oh, that would be great. That would be great, yeah. So Pentamonic is going to re-chat for us. Man, I got to stop tickets. So I got Flynn. yeah Flynn is lit it's solid I did Zen right left ramp got it we have lit light cycle missed it by that much okay uh what are we gonna wow Wow, I just hit Zeus unintentionally. That was great. Yeah, I kind of did too. Here we go. Let's see if we can get into light cycle. No, we cannot. Sure. Ah, you stumbled. Come on. There we go. Light cycle. I'm good, I'm good, I'm good. Oh, it went right past. I didn't get Zeus. Zeus is lit. Zeus is solid. Ah! heartbreaker after heartbreaker. Really? Yeah. Aw! Man. Okay. So, yeah, I go to properties and I set it to one of the 920s and then set it back to 4K. And then set it to the 4K. Oh, you know what? That's too bad because it went into a track mode and I don't see... Okay, so now I'm going to Quora here. All I had was fun. There's a gem to the outlane. That happens so, so often to try and complete it. I wonder if I can increase the I can probably increase the contrast while he's still playing yeah you're good you guys are going to get to see how the sausage is made real quick that's what a that's what a virtual pinball table looks like It's crazy. I have all layers of... of... So this is the environment emission. I can make it brighter... and I can make it... that's ridiculous. Does it really? I don't... I don't know about that. George does so Pentomniac is saying George does way better in competition than he does when he's streaming and I don't know if he's being sarcastic but I'll take his word for it so George is I am not a competition player though competitions like this specifically sure I'm good with that I'm good with competition like casual competition play. This is the basic layout of Tron. So, in this mode, to complete it, you just want to hit the hell out of the disc. But, this is a boy. You can. Absolutely. I mean, but we're not playing for points here, right? Alright, you guys can tell me if the contrast is a little better. Is it much better? Can you see the ball, though? Because the ball gets dark. I can see the ball just fine. Alright, a little over-under here. Shiggy, shiggy, shiggy. My playfield... Oh, everything died. Yeah, what just happened? The tele... Sorry, my television, like the second screen that I was displaying to just died. Oh, dude, I am destroying it right now. Wait, so is my playfield down? Okay. I'm like, come on, I'm playing really well. It would suck if you guys couldn't see this. So what do I need? I need gem. I think I just need one more shot on gem. And I... I'm playing an exhibition game come on George I'll stop playing so we can all watch you just want to do a post transfer but sometimes post transfers are not easy there we go I certainly do and I'm supposed to be part of it I feel like I feel like I can get there otherwise I would give up no keep going man Oh. Oh. Come on, post-transfer. There we go. What? There we go. Okay, so we're in Quora. That's good. I can't see anything right now, but I am in Quora multiball, so we want to complete Quora. We just got gems started, which also completed Quora, by the way. And we've got light cycle lit and started. Okay. So, recognize the last one, huh? Alright, so we've got a four ball going here right now. Ooh. we have to you know what we have to do we have to set up a theme switch to go back to single play mode when this happens that would be cool sorry when George decides that he wants to play pinball alone I don't know what else to do while I'm in this right now besides I guess focus on trying to get more try to finish Jem. Yes. So I haven't finished Jem yet. And I don't think I'm going to. Oh boy. Okay. Wait, it was just to get to Sea of Simulation. Yeah. Yeah. He's right. Two cameras. Yeah. One plate filled and a DMD. Yeah. Okay. Do I try and play Sea of Simulation, though? Yes, there's a gem. He hit gem with that flipper. Holy smokes. Now we need to do zoos. Of course. Ha! Nope. Okay. I know what I have to do. That's good. All right. So now I got to go back here. I don't know why that other television turned off. I'm going to turn it back on. Hold on one sec. And what is... There's a ghost in his house. ...closer to 1230? I'm going to plunge that guy. Yeah, I get worse. I get worse as the evening goes by. As the evening... Oh, man. Look, look. No more. There's nothing in this glass. There's nothing in this glass. This was my mojo. So frustrating there. But this was my pinjo. Where did this go? There we go. Okay. So it is 1221. We got one last one. What's the last challenge? Oh. Straight up. High score. Okay. And do we hold off for each other's ball, or is it just play through three and high score wins? play through play through three in high school wins I feel good no just the one we're already at 1221 so we're going to probably Caviel says lowest score wins that is you purposefully have to dream every time that would be do you have enough time to at least attempt that to see who can get the lowest score Alright, let's do that one How do you do that? Exactly Okay Go, sorry Okay No tilting, by the way I'm just going to throw that out there Oh, crap Alright, I was about to And Okay I'm winning I'm winning And here we go Crap Oh no How do I get No And I'm draining The stakes I I hit the scoop on accident. So I'm at 836 to your 724. Oh, no. No! Okay, we're good. We're good. And done. I win. I think. No bonus. No bonus. Oh, I lost. But significantly lost. 966 to 1-1. Okay. Yeah, and Caviel says, but not just drain. Cradle until the ball save expires before you drain. Yeah. Keep those switches down. I'm good at no point. So the real one here, last one, is one game, high score wins, and this is what we ended up on. Okay. Okay. Are you ready? five i'm ready four three two one let's do this all right so i'm going for light cycle right away i don't know about you Oh my god, that was crazy. What's it gonna give me? 500,000? Oh, damn it! It just walks across the friggin' playfield, man. Yeah. I'm doing sideways nudges. which is the stupidest thing you could probably do. Plus, I'm going to tilt easier that way. All right, so getting a couple shots on the recognizer, going for a... Oh, no, and then right into the outline. I know, right? You don't have to think... Caviel, that is a really good point. We didn't have to think start. Here we go. So I'm going to go all the way around. There's that. I need one more shot to initiate light cycle multiball. Keep it in there. Apparently, that is the shot right now that I am unable to make. There we go. Ah, fuck. Okay, okay. Nice and easy going into light cycle. Totally got light cycle. Yeah. So I think a good test of my skill would be to see how many flips George does versus how many flips I do in a typical game. Because I think I'm flipping way more than he is. He waits for the settle. Take a breath. Oh, that was BS game. All right, game. We're... I'm fine... I'm fine losing. That isn't the... That isn't the issue here. Nope. Nope. Too soon. Or too late. That was awful. I'm going after Cora and I'm getting my butt kicked 7-9 What ball is he Okay he's on ball 3 Alright alright Nice and easy here Oh my god I didn't tilt I didn't danger I moved the friggin table across the floor Yeah Yeah Where's extra ball? Three more to start. multiball. One. Woo! That was close. Two. And three. There we go. Core shot. I shouldn't have given that ball up. Damn it. Yeah. Did they recognize it? Yeah, the Quora adds a ball on the Recognizer. Yeah. Pentomniac is... He's in my ear. He's an excellent coach right now. It's just, I have to... So this is an excellent example of me playing too fast all the time. I think that's basically it. I play way too fast. Also, I'm really dark right now. I don't know why. Oh, okay. But I restarted multiball! Alright! Oh, it's because my battery ran out. Oh! Alright, I'm going to let that drain. You guys... Welcome to Flusting! In paradise, Jedi McMuffin.
