Thank you. Good evening and welcome. Looks like my voice is working. Looks like the sound is working, which is really what I was trying to get across in the first place. And we're here this evening. Iron Fox, welcome.
6:04
We've got pinball. What have we got planned for tonight? So we're going to play some Rush. I have Sound Voltex set up. Hey, Firestorm, welcome. Firestorm is back.
6:20
Firestorm, I feel like I've seen you recently pretty active on the Twittersphere. And maybe it's just that I'm actually reading tweets now. I don't know if that's a recent thing for you.
6:35
And we've also got some fun music. I've got a, I need more suggestions for what to put in here. But it's like a retro playlist.
6:49
And I started listing things and then Spotify does a good job of like recommending other music that would potentially fit in the playlist. And it started with that cool song from the Stranger Things episode.

    sentiment_shift: Stranger Things Season 4 finale generating significant fan engagement, with viewers discussing Easter eggs and production quality

    medium · Extended discussion about show details, Duffer Brothers decisions, willingness to wait for part 2 release, visible enthusiasm from multiple chat participants

    • 7:05
    Got me kind of on it. I'm like, I think I can find more music that works like this. And that's what we've got for tonight. And then we'll silence that like this and then turn this up.
    7:19
    And this is the sound Voltex music. And really quick, just so that way you can see what that's going to look like, we switch over to that screen, and then we get to play some sound Voltex. Because that's going to be fun. Oh, wow, I am really close to the camera. I think I'm supposed to be back here playing-ish from right about here. Anyway, this evening... Where did that go? I just spilled. All right, it did not spill on the stream deck, nor on the GoXLR. I think it's on the floor somewhere over there. Yeah, it works had me bogged in winter, but we've hit a spring slump. So more time for pinball streams anyway. Awesome. Firestorm, glad to hear that.
    8:09
    Not sure what y'all are drinking tonight, but I have a blueberry shrub vodka soda. And this is pretty good. I'm very happy with it so far. This is from Dogfish Head Distilling Company. Dogfish Head. Yeah, they do some really good beers. So I'm going to turn that down, this music back up, and let's get a game going. Let's see how this evening fares for pinball. I have not touched a pinball machine in a week and a half, I think. So don't be expecting a lot. Hey, Brooklyn Pin, welcome to the stream. Hey, y'all, have a rush launch tourney next week. Tourney strategies, if you have them. We'll be on a pro. Thanks, Brooklyn Pin. We'll see what we can do.
    9:02
    There is one mode in particular. I think it's big money. That actually is big money. But we'll see how we do.
    9:14
    You know what? I should go ahead and log in. I'm going to do that. Yeah. Where is that? Pictures. I know I have a picture. I also just got back from traveling, by the way. South Carolina. Very warm. Excellent food. No idea in South Carolina what gluten sensitivity is or someone who might be sensitive to dairy. So that was a struggle, finding food at restaurants.
    9:54
    So, you know, just FYI, South Carolina. I'm in. Okay, that's back over there. Actually, that should go there. We're over here.
    10:09
    We're going to get some music going. If the music's too loud, I'm trying to find that nice happy medium where the music's hearable, loud enough without making it where I have to yell over the music.
    10:23
    So we're going to hit start. I have the music turned off here, so we're good. And let's do the thing.
    10:36
    All right, what do we want to do first here? We want to lock in as many of these colors as possible before we make our way into a mode.
    10:54
    So there's one, and it looks like it's pink. So I'm going to try and hit that shot, lock in a second pink.
    11:03
    That is a light purple. We have, oh, the pink now is on the right ramp. Let's see if we can hit that.
    11:14
    Right ramp. I don't know where this is. Hey, we found it first try. Right orbit. Oh, wow. Don't do that. Yeah, that right orbit was perfect.
    11:30
    Hey, it's still there. Let's see if we can hit it. Fine. Didn't hit anything. Still got that right orbit. Got to find that shot. So right now you can see at the top left side our shot values are at 10%. Hey, pinball princess Jillian, welcome to the stream.
    12:05
    you Thank you. Can we hit this extra ball? Boom! Almost!
    18:25
    Crap. I'll take it. I'll take it. I can't believe that nudge actually worked. All right, we just collected four million times it by seven. Like, I think that's working exactly like I thought it would. All right, let's go ahead and put our multipliers. I don't know what that thing is that we just put on there, but we put it on something. Cha-ching, right? Yes, I feel like Ray Day would be proud of that moment right there. I mean, that's nothing too crazy, but sorry, it was New York pinball. Was it New York? Like, there you go. Oh, it was Brooklyn Pin. Like, we're at 146 million on ball two right now, and all we did was play one mode.
    19:51
    What is going on right now? Just give me a shot, would you? There we go. There's a one, two, three. What do we need now? We've got extra ball lined up over there. Let's see.
    20:17
    We've got orange. Yeah, that's a lot of orange. That's a lot of orange. Let's change it up. There it is. Now we've got orange on all three of those shots over there. That's great. Let's see if we can hit an orange. Got it.
    20:45
    Crap, we got a pink. Pretty cool. If you can get all of the colors, if you can make them all orange, they then relight and you can do it again and continue increasing your shot value. How cool is that?
    21:04
    Alright, so we can start our mode. I don't want to yet. I want to get another orange because we're only at plus 10%. Alright, we got our second extra ball.
    21:22
    What do we got? We have no oranges lit. We have three oranges lit, though. I mean, hard lit. We need to do this again.
    21:31
    As I whisper in your ear I wanna fucking tear you apart Alright, did we get an orange? We did! Our right ramp is now an orange after all of that.
    21:57
    Can we get it over, though? Here we go. Crap. Got it. Man, was just trying to start the mode there. Wasn't trying to do anything too crazy. Charge up to time loop. Far Cry Lockshot is ready at the lit scoop. So I think we're ready here.
    22:33
    Live catch. We just received a fair amount with explaining the code to the Brazilian pinhead. Oh, on GNR. Okay, cool.
    22:44
    All right, so I think we brought in 20%, plus 20%. There's a shot. There's another shot. So you can hit this left core a bit. Totally got there. What do we need here? All right, let's go inner loop and then try and hit the... Sorry, inner hook shot. There it is. That sucked.
    23:18
    Now let's go there. What are we in, Working Man right now? That'll work. Try it again. Man, just... I literally dropped the ball there.
    23:54
    Not bad. I think we've got two extra balls here. Oh, geez. And we've got a replay. That's over there. Okay, cool, cool, cool. Also, I know we started off a bit early throwing it out there, but anyone else who is maybe having a beverage this evening, this is what we've got. We're playing with some Dogfish Head Vodka Soda with Blueberry Scrub.
    24:22
    And it has some descriptive text. Hold on. This is, this scratch-made cocktail starts with our in-house blueberry shrub, a blend of fresh blueberries and blueberry juice, a splash of sweetened balsamic and red wine vinegar. That's then macerated with our vodka. Finally, we mix with soda water for an all-natural tart and juicy refresher. I feel like there's something wrong with the grammar of that entire thing. I don't know. Hey, somebody just did something. RP Jr., thank you so much. Oh, that's right. Sorry, there's no sound on that right now. Normally there would be a sound with it beyond just a color, but all the colors just changed to purple for you, and you might be able to see that. It kind of changed purple-y. It kind of went blue there. But, hey, thank you very much. My hat's off to you.
    25:19
    Man, that's good. All right. I think that's about the level we were with the music, and the music seemed pretty decent. Not like I was, it wasn't overpowering things while y'all could still hear it.
    25:37
    Ugh. Alright, there's a green... Crap. So I've got a lot of blue lit, uh, a blues lit, I should say. Wow, four blues are currently lit.
    26:05
    So in order to switch those up, I need to hit these rush targets over here. Yep, kind of felt that was happening there. And the reason I wanted to switch it up is because I want to try and increase the value of all my mode-based shots. Probably didn't have to do that, though. Hey, Taylor, welcome to the stream. What is the cat thinking? Excellent question.
    26:30
    Might be a little... That's... I don't know. That happened. It's a thing. That's a thing. Hey, Mr. Snail Man, welcome to the stream.
    26:59
    Whoo! It's thinking Vecna. Yes, yes! Mr. Snail Man's right there with me. Thank you. Hey, Captain Chuns, welcome to the stream, and thank you very much for that follow. Thank you. that seemed super intentional and it totally was totally please be an actual mystery and not a uh i did not want to start a multi-ball
    27:42
    Crap. Trying to get it in the hole over here, this captive ball that... Wow, that was just awesome is what it was. All right, so that's moving around. That basically acts on this left side over here. This acts like the, what's it called, targets?
    28:28
    The targets from, what's the name of the game? The Walking Dead. Oh! There it is. All right, we started the mode. I don't think we're getting any bonuses. I think I got a plethora of colors.
    28:53
    That was mean. So many great Easter eggs and stranger things. It was... I mean, there was a ton of, like, role-playing Easter eggs. I'm trying to think of what other Easter eggs there might have been in there. I'm thinking maybe I missed stuff.
    29:12
    I was good. It was good. Missed out on some pinball time. The Walking Dead. Oh, The Walking Dead. Thank you, Brooklyn.
    29:28
    Oh, man. All right, we need to get back into our mode. We've got one green, so let's hit this right ramp. Darn it.
    29:47
    If I right ramp, evidently I meant right orbit. Do I have any more greens? No. Do I really want green for this? We need one more to actually start the mode again. I think we do.
    30:13
    Is anything lit green? Nothing is lit green. We have two shots. They're both green, so we have to hit the rush target again.
    30:23
    Got it. And we got a green. Beautiful, beautiful. So we've got a green over here. Got it. All right, four greens.
    30:49
    What's it going to give me? Plus three ramp shots. okay shots at fame for 15 seconds all right so we just got 15 seconds dice welcome to the stream how the heck are you doing sir All right, so I want to catch up. 15 seconds of fame. Awarded value 800. We're at three. I don't know.
    31:32
    Um. Got it. got a combo jackpot. We're going to get that. No, no. All right, all right. I think that was ball three. George still goes live these days. Cool. I've been super busy. Currently flying back from Boston. Dude, I was just in South Carolina. I flew back last night. Weather in Colorado. It rained a little bit and everything changed.
    32:18
    Hey, live catch pinball. I'm assuming it's probably a poor assumption. I'm going to put your initials in here. And is it LCP?
    32:33
    I'll start putting that in there. But if it's not, you let me know. Going once, twice, sold three times. Live catch pinball. Thank you again so much for that raid. All right.
    32:51
    Everything changed when the Water Nation attacked. I don't realize the context of that statement, but obviously Avatar. Although the Water Nation, isn't it the Fire Nation?
    33:08
    Maybe. I don't know. But hey, let's do our first switch of the night. Are you guys ready for this? Didn't you say it was because of rain? Got it. Okay, no, no, no. I get it. That makes a lot more sense now. Hi. we're going to try something a little bit different tonight where we try and play a completely different game for a little bit in between.
    33:50
    And then we'll go back and play some pinball. But I really, really like this game. This is a game that Escher introduced me to. And still trying to find all the good songs with all the cool music. and I'm not good. Oh my, what is this? Iron Fox. Yeah, this is what we're doing.
    34:18
    And, you know, here I'm going to show you guys what it looks like without seeing the controller and then I'll show you the controller.
    34:25
    Hmm, hmm, hmm. Hopefully the music is not too loud. It's a really cool game. If you guys have questions about it, go ahead and ask away. As soon as I'm done, I'll catch back up on chat. And then next game, I'll show you guys the actual controller.
    35:41
    The controller is crazy. I ended up bringing this to Expo. No, was it Expo? No, it was TPS. And the cool knobs are awesome. When you're seeing this all move around all crazy. So, let me show you guys what this looks like here, because this is kind of fun.
    36:34
    There you go. That right there is the physical controller. And you can see, like, as you're moving, there's these knobs right here that you have to twist. and then you hit these buttons here and these buttons here that represent different parts of the game.
    36:55
    Let's see here. Be glad your skies are more decisive on what it wants to do because skies can't make up its mind whether or not it wants to rain or shine lately. I know, Firestorm. It's been rough out here in Colorado.
    37:08
    Oh my, what is this? I was kind of hoping this was your way of letting us know you bought a Pachinko machine.
    37:16
    No, but man, do I want to buy Ice Cold Beard, which is a game that MPT3K introduced me to. Mr. Snail, man, this game is very BA, and it's hard to set up. Yeah, exactly, guys, it's like Guitar Hero and DJ Hero had a baby, exactly. Let's do one more, and then we'll switch back over to pinball.
    37:40
    Oh, that's right, I touch things. and there's you you're only supposed to be able to play this in Japan so like we're obviously in Japan let's see if we can find that lock stuff I can't play yet no George 2022 oh that's right I've touched things Oh, that's the song. That's totally the song we're doing. Let's see what happens here.
    38:22
    All right, so now I'll let you guys see this with the controller overlaid with my hands. Sammy Higgins! We're eating with the Party of 13!
    38:37
    Welcome to the stream, guys. We are having a little bit of fun here. Why did the track crash? Hi, Sammy. I can't believe you subscribed to Don't Panic Flip. I mean, you're paying your money. Thank you. You must be a billionaire if you're wasting your money watching someone else play pinball. Sammy Higgins, my hat's off to you. Thank you very much for bringing people over here. Guys, we're doing something a little funky tonight. We are, you'll see here, we can go back here and you'll see we have pinball. And we'll play pinball, but right now we swapped it out to play some sound Voltex. And now we're going to play some sound Voltex. One more song in sound Voltex. I don't know why that song automatically failed.
    39:37
    But it's fine. We're going to do this song. Valid, Sakara. Yeah, I'm definitely confused. We'll get back there. So this game is called Sound Voltax. Sound Voltax is like, somebody said it earlier, Guitar Hero and DJ Hero had a baby.
    39:55
    So. And hopefully you guys can see the controller. Yeah, if you were expecting just pinball tonight, I apologize. You will be sorely disappointed. There's pinball and things happening. Oh, no.
    41:08
    I've got to remember to line it up before I start, though. Oh, my God. All right, we completed that track, and we'll just wheel that guy out of the way there.
    42:15
    You got running on a VPN to place you. Yeah, guys, it was definitely a process. So I'm going to turn that music down. Now it's just us. Chaotix, I also really like music games. Yeah, rhythm-based games I find super fun, and this is one that Escher introduced me to, and I kind of fell in love. This game is a lot of fun. I kind of wish the music was a little bit different, but they're constantly adding tracks. In fact, I have to subscribe and pay in order to get anything more than just the default tracks. And man, does it get intense. I need to get Escher back over here. Now that I've got this all set up, to watch Escher play this, and it's ridiculous. To see somebody play it, like I was playing at level three, Escher plays at level 14 or level 15, and it's just constantly twisting, doing things. It's intense, and it's fun to watch on top of everything else. Firestorm says, bit much for me, though. I think my brother can go ham on that game. Firestorm, I get that. I totally get that. I'll stick with Rhythm Heaven, thanks. They need to make a version of this where you're playing DDR at the same time, doing the whole thing while also hitting the buttons and twisting the knobs. Does the whole base Oh here Hold on I can I think I can help with this Maybe Hold on So DroidCam is using 182 Somebody just did say, Chaotix dropping 100 bits. Those green lights, those are for you. Thank you. Thank you very much. My, my, my hat's off to you. Let's see if I can show you guys my, my current setup here. Hold up. That is, oh, also, I don't think I did, but Condales, my hat's off to you. Thank you very much for that tier one sub. You're fantastic. Sammy Higgins. Oh, I brought it upstairs. I got my Jersey in. I got my Jersey in. So I now can represent the team that is physically closest and closest in proximity to my current location. And I can support said sports team with a, with a URA URA kind of, yes, I can totally get behind it now that I have a jersey. Okay, Droid Cam. Let's see if mobile is set up. It is. Look at it. We're upside down. So sorry if I'm making people sick. So here we go. We got what we're looking at there, right? And then this is that set up. I've got a vertical camera over there. You've got the laptop, which is running both OBS and the game simultaneously right now. I need a third monitor. And this, I can't say enough positive things about this computer. I don't think I've gone over 20% CPU usage ever on this. And then there's this guy over here. And I've just got it set up on some wheels. And then there's this. And these guys turn, and you can see the lights change as you turn it. These, you press down and they light when you press down. And then there's the two buttons down here that also light when you press, and this guy also turns. So that is the controller for, what's the name of this game? Sound Voltex. And so what I'm doing is I've got two cameras up there, one in the play field and one specifically for this. So make sure I just place that there. We switch back over to Voltex, and you can see we're kind of, for the most part, aligned up. I, yeah, anyway, that's how, that's how this all works. Did you do a pre-show workout? Your forehead is glistening. Dice, I did, but I showered afterwards. I think it's just a little warm in here is all fine. I can, I can, I can, I can open this up, cool it off. hopefully that's not too loud I don't think that introduced a ton of background noise did it? no so how was everyone else tonight? we're going to play some more pinball and then we're going to come back and Firestorm just cheered a hundred bits my hat's off to you and thank you Firestorm uh way to rock dust in seasons for hat i know dice when i was in south carolina we went to a mall and spent the majority of a day at a mall and while i was there there was a store that i'm now in love with called box lunch i think is what it was called and it's basically just like disney and movie memorabilia and uh and they had one of these hats one they had one of these hats oh my gosh, we just hit a hype train. Mr. Snail Man dropping 100 bits as well. My hat's off to you. Thank you so much. And we are currently in a hype train. Biddies for the hat and awesome game. Mr. Snail Man, thank you. I've been meaning to do that for ages. You're welcome. Box lunch is a sister store to Hot Topic. That makes a lot of sense. Sammy Higgins also dropping 100 bits. I've got, I don't know who the baseball player is. It says Bryant. I've got that. Oh, wow. Joe Air. Gift. Oh, no. A bunch of nutsacks for watching someone play pinball on the computer. Are you kidding me? Come on. Learn a skill. Get a trade. I know there's a pandemic going on, but pinball? Geez, you could be playing pinball. You're sitting there watching someone else pinball? You're like the sad guy at the bar who didn't bring any frigging quarters. Hope you have a great day. Cheers.

    48:32
    There's something else going on here. I don't... What was I doing? I don't whatever I was doing it's not important hey pinball Howard welcome to the stream hi howdy uh I fear I steered you wrong on the Chris Bryan jersey he's been injured most of the year but the Rockies are currently beating the Giants if that makes you feel better I got a jersey like that's it. I almost wore it tonight, except I have to wash it. I have just not only like stomach sensitivities, I have like skin sensitivities and I will, I will break out, uh, sometimes based on, I don't know what's on certain material if I don't wash it first. Oh, that's right. We were putting the music back up. That's what it was. But yeah, that first junk of season four. Oh, that first chunk. It was so good. Nice. All right. All right. All right. This entire playlist I put together is all Stranger Things. It's based on the song from Stranger Things in season four. It's the most popular song on the Internet right now. So if you don't know the song, but you haven't watched Stranger Things Season 4. I don't want to give anything away. Everyone knows spoilers, but it's fantastic. And Stranger Things Season 4 makes me want to get the pinball machine again just to have the pinball machine. Also, I really hurt my shoulder. My brother beat me up in South Carolina, and we may have re-injured my shoulder again. Ooh, yes, Sammy Higgins, talking Stranger Things. Do you see my cool hat? Let's see, It's currently open in a tab on my computer, LMAO. It's so good. It is really, really good. I mean, I don't want to set high expectations, but it's pretty freaking awesome.
    50:30
    Anyway, Kimball. Hopefully the music's coming through nice and loud, but not so loud that you can't hear me.
    50:45
    Really? All right, there we go. Two tries. We've got a blue locked up. Let's see if we can backhand this. Nope. Totally worked. Yep.
    51:08
    Crap. Yeah! Okay, just enough to trigger it. Crap. We need another blue. It's the inner loop. I don't like that inner loop shot, but I'm going to try it anyway.
    51:29
    Or not. Whatever. Oh, it's currently... You meant the song. Got it. I finished the season that first weekend. I can't wait for the next one. I know it's like July 8th or something when it comes out. How about the scene where the character redacted, and that character redacted and information redacted happened?
    51:49
    Dice, I love that scene. That was such a good scene. Hey, go rewatch Stranger Things 4 and see the words in the opening scene's crossword puzzle. More Easter. Oh.
    52:02
    Okay, July 1st. Okay, we'll be able to watch it over the long July 4th weekend. Got it. All right. I need that dark blue shot.
    52:41
    Did I get it? Yes, I did. Darn it. And then I promptly lost it. Okay, we're at shot value 20% though.
    53:04
    The spirit is a radio shot. Why am I getting 30% but different colors? That's weird. 40%. Oh, the percentage is higher.
    53:26
    This is not the right song. Hey, I've collected all the level one emotes. Hold up, hold up. So what do we got here?
    53:44
    Ooh, that's not far at least. Oh my god, this song is not doing it for me. This is not supposed to be playing.
    53:56
    There we go. Okay, so after the wait during the pandemic, it's doable. Still a little miffed after how good the first chunk was and how long episode seven was, just to have to wait a month for two new episodes, even if the last one is two and a half hours.
    54:17
    Yeah, you know what? Hey, let the Duffer Brothers do whatever they want. They're putting out good content. I love Jaffa Brothers' attention to detail with exact, inappropriate material, prop songs. Mr. Snailman, it's interesting because I've tried to find issues, and I haven't been able to.
    54:37
    Although, with the walkie-talkie situation, they got around the need for cell phones. They basically have cell phones.
    54:45
    That last episode was so good, though. I'm totally fine waiting. I don't see how they top that, though.
    54:52
    Ugh, there's so many good episodes. So many. Like, the, the, nope, nope, nope, nope, can't say it. The only reason we didn't get the last two episodes in that batch is literally not done yet. They did forget Will's birthday in this season. Aw.
    55:10
    Maybe they'll, maybe they'll address it. This is the one that you can end very quickly by just doing this shot over and over and over again. Uno más. All right, now we're ready, I think, to start working on our shots here for our next mode. All right. We're cool. We're cool. We got the green. There's another green over there. Let's see. Can we backhand it? No, we cannot. Forehand it. Totally missed the shot. Hey, does anyone else smell like a really sweet cigar right now? I can't get away. But if it wasn't for your misfortune, I'd be a heavenly person in vain.
    56:41
    And I thought I'd won this nation. And I thought I had this dream. Crap. Hit the inner. Inner shot. No! Not at all what I wanted. I did not want to start that mode. Nor the multi-ball.
    57:00
    Uh-oh. There it is. There it is. We got an orange shot. All right, we still did not start a mode. Ugh.
    58:00
    The Duffer Brothers literally had to issue an apology and say they totally forgot. Really? There's something really cool about that.
    58:14
    Oh, crap. We're in big money. Great. That's the mode to get into. We need more pink. There we go. 2x big money lit.
    58:40
    And we're done. And the new season did give me a newfound appreciation for improvised weaponry. Skates, right? Oh, man. Yes!
    58:54
    Great song. We're going to turn that up just there. This music video is just fantastic. I've tried If we're gonna make it like it's true It's a vibe
    60:20
    you All right, let's go green. Green is now the right ramp. Crap.
    66:26
    Here we go. Right ramp. There it is. Hitting the rush targets. See if we can get some more green. What did we get? No more green. Let's see if we can do it again. Got it Now we need this right orbit This is a tough shot It may not seem like a tough shot But it's a tough shot Got it Beautiful Now we've got three green shots over there Our increased shot value is at 10% We're going to hit this left orbit There it is. Is that all five? No.
    67:26
    That's a lot, but that is an increase of 30% shot value, and our final shot is on that inner loop, but I'm not going for it. So instead, I'm just going to start it. We're going to go there. I'll take my 30%.
    67:44
    We're now ready for a multiball, it looks like. Yeah, let's do it. Oh, no. Let's not suck, though, okay? Thank you.
    68:05
    1981 Red Barchetta multiball. All right, all right. We've trapped up. What do we need to do now? FAMO meter, 35% out of limelight. Shoot the machine. Got it.
    68:51
    All shots lit for limelight again. And then we have to evidently hit that shot in the middle. Okay, there's two shots.
    69:13
    What do we need to do? Fame. Limelight timer four in the limelight. Shoot the time machine. Come on. We're at 65% of our fame meter. There's one shot.
    69:44
    Um, let's see, we're going to go there. Looks like limelight timer. Oh, no. Shoot the time machine. Got it. Okay. I wonder if that's it.
    70:18
    Nope. All shots lit again. You have to do it four times. Extra ball is lit. Oh, that completed the mode. Okay. We escaped the limelight.
    70:34
    Don't put it on that left orbit. Thank you. Not good. There it is. That's where I want to put that shot.
    70:58
    I dropped the ball so literally there. Felt really good up until then, though. So we completed a mode, 78 million.
    71:14
    All right, so we have one blue, one light blue. I'll take it. Man, that was rough. We need different blues. Let's go ahead and hit those rush targets. Wow. We got our extra ball. Good. We also moved the targets. We still don't have any of the dark blue. We're going to hit those rush targets again. We got a pink there. That was obviously intentional.
    72:19
    All right. And we've got now dark or light purples. I don't know what that is. Hey, Tracy from Outer Spacey. Welcome.
    72:32
    Morning. Man, we need to hit that again and get more blues. So hitting those rush targets totally missed it.
    72:53
    Thanks for the stormy weather. There we go. All right, now we've got dark blues on both the right side. Let's see if we can make this happen.
    73:16
    Darn it. There it is. Oh, and we hit the right target. All right, whatever. Light blue. We're just hitting all the shots now.
    73:33
    Oh, it looped. Okay, cool. Cool. Don't start a multiball. All right, we're at 30% in our shot values. Let's go ahead and start the mode, because I think we're ready to start a multivol. Hey, it's Scam Fraud. Welcome to the stream, and yes, this is placebo.
    74:17
    Oh, I just started the mode. Oh, God. This game is fun, and it's also super frustrating. It's so much effort to get into a mode. And you're no longer in a mode when you drain.
    74:48
    Tracy, oh my God, placebo. I know, right? Like, when was the last time you thought about placebo? Ugh. Who even needs extra balls? Not a thing.
    75:06
    I have a feeling that we are going to be playing sound vortex again very soon. All right, we've got dark blue, light blue. We've got orange. We've got a mode ready to go. All right.
    75:47
    I have light blue and dark blue. All right, we've got, yeah, left orbit here. Don't start the multi-ball.
    76:23
    Oh, man. I whisper in your ear. All right, let's hit green there. I don't even know what that was about there.
    77:12
    All right. We have hit a lot of shots. We have many colors lit. All right. So do many tables allow modes after draining? never played this table. Yeah, quite a few tables will, if you're in a mode, allow you to remain in the mode. There's usually a different type of timer. This one's timer is either in the mode, some of these have timers built into them, or it's when you drain the ball you're out, or you complete it. I don't want to fucking tear you apart.
    77:50
    Extra ball is lit. We're going to need that right there. Unforgiving. Yeah, we were playing great earlier.
    78:06
    It was just unforgiving this time. And you know what we need. I think we're going to need some fridge cam here. What do you guys think?
    78:21
    Let's go grab something really quick. My right side up? Yeah. And then we're going to fridge cam. I forgot to put the bent plastic back on.
    78:42
    There you go. Let's go over here really quick. Mmm. By the way, I face all of my drinks, I feel like, every day multiple times. Oh, geez.
    79:01
    Did not mean to do that. Let's go here and grab... Let's grab this Cutwater Rum Mojito. Bridge cam! Hey, Sammy, there is... I just threw out a bunch of food today because I left it in there when I went traveling. Is there... There we go. There is... There's a little bit of food.
    79:34
    Look at that. And I just took a bunch of stuff out of the freezer today in preparation for Zoe being here this weekend. So, this is what we're playing here tonight. On top of, we've got Rush.
    79:56
    I actually really like this song. But, this is going to go away for a minute, and I'm going to switch back over to chatting. Hi, welcome back. And then we're going to play some sound Voltax. Let's do this. Tracy is in. I like that. All right, so first thing I have to do is pause this because I like this song.
    80:18
    All right, that is paused. We're going to go back up on this. We're going to move this guy back over here.
    80:30
    Now, do you guys actually want to see the controller or do you just want the game itself? because right now you can see the physical controller but I can take that off and you guys can see the entire the entire game and it gives you a virtual version at the bottom over here right here it'll give you a virtual version of that so I guess I'll leave it on for the first one you can see actually what's happening All right.
    81:23
    I'm going to turn the volume up on this just a little bit. That's right. We were going down the level threes.
    81:35
    Gotta find a good song, though, right? No. Wow, that is a really slow song. Nope. All right, all right, yes, hey, MJ Smith. Wait, is this the MJ Smith? And yes, this is totally a rhythm game. I hope you like it.
    82:14
    This game is called Sound Voltex, and man, is it hard to get actually set up. Escher walked me through this multiple times, and here we go.
    82:29
    Crap, I messed it up already. Thank you. This is a pretty cool song. I'm just not very good at this. Like, if you see anyone else play this, they play it at a much higher level than I do.
    83:32
    MJ! Okay, cool. That is you. Hi, MJ. I need to get you back over here, man. So MJ has a podcast where they were going over minute by minute Jaws. And they would spend, I think, an hour going over each minute of the Jaws movie. And they just finished it after... MJ, how long did you do that for?
    84:03
    I think it's called Jaws for a Minute. Was that the name of the podcast? Started in September of 2020. Yes, it is. Yeah, that ends up moving over there. so that was really easy at this point I feel like I'm a level 4 we're going to try a level 4 and yeah Firestorm that is minute by minute hour for each minute and I'm guessing at that point it's like 120 episodes over 2 years let's jaws for a minute ok cool awesome day by the way
    85:01
    All right, so now we have to go down. All right, now let's go find four. I think a lot of these are the same songs. They're just more complicated.
    85:31
    Hmm. So it was roughly a minute, sometimes two or three, 80 episodes, like 98 hours of content. That is awesome.
    85:44
    Oh, whoa. Love the double bass drum. Okay, we're doing this one. All right, if I suck, I want to apologize, because I do suck. Sorry, there's no question I suck. But if I don't make it through this song at level four, we'll see what... I apologize ahead of time.
    86:10
    Here we go. Already, I am loving this song. I missed it. That was a really, really slow burn over there to the right. Oh man, if I had this at home, this is all I would do MJ Smith, it's such a cool game Alright, alright, let's do one more song And then we'll switch back over to pinball for a bit
    88:33
    Ooh, force plus I don't know what that means But I'm happy about it Uh oh Button got jammed up There we go.
    88:58
    I barely used this. Why are the buttons getting stuck? All right, four was definitely doable. Let's scroll down a little bit. Ooh, what is Starlight Express?
    89:09
    No, way too fast. Oh, yeah. Yeah. What are we at? Oh, man, I'm at 1.0. All right. What we've got to do is turn this up a little bit. Asher was saying, I should start at 2.
    89:44
    All right, so we're speeding things up a bit. What's the highest level of difficulty it goes to? I don't know. I've seen Escher play a 14 and 15, and it's ridiculous at that level.
    90:14
    Thank you. That was fun. Okay, I liked it. Messed it up a little bit there. Okay, all right, all right.
    91:07
    Room for grow. I actually kind of like this song. That was a really fun song. I actually kind of like this. I look good.
    91:51
    Okay, so moving this out of the way. That's actually really easy to do. And here's what's fun, is I actually have the next time we have somebody. So both Ty and Asher play this. And for when that happens, we can be playing pinball and sound vortex at the same time. It'll be good. I've got that all set to go now.
    92:15
    All right, so we're going to go back here, kill the music over there, and bring back up gaming music. I should say pinball music.
    92:26
    Turn that down a hair. Actually crack open this beer and just check in with everyone for a second. How's Tuesday treating everyone? It is Tuesday, right? Yeah, tomorrow's Wednesday. Okay. Cheers. I will now be drinking over here. There we go. Come on, focus. Cup water, mint and lime rum mojito. It's a very good drink.
    92:56
    It's a descriptive tent. Oh, it's a vacation state of mind. Hold on. This is pretty good. Notes of gently muddled mint and lime are enhanced by natural cane sugar topped with cut water, Bali high white rum and soda water. It's a refreshing and easy, and easy escape year round.
    93:20
    Hey, Joe Air, new Minecraft update. Pretty exciting Tuesday. Look at that. That's awesome. Oh, I think there is an update for this that I'm not playing right now. They just put out a new version.
    93:34
    While I was on vacation. Natural cane sugar. No sugar. That does sound weird. Made with award-winning something.
    93:58
    It's gluten-free. It says so right there. There's that. That was toe not toe. All right. Hitting the start button. Now, pink is the way to go, man. Right off the bat. Perfect. So if I can lock in all the pinks and initiate big money, right?
    94:38
    Ah, so it changed the spirit of the radio. There's a pink. There's another blue. What do we got?
    95:03
    Another purple. I don't know. We've got a lot of shots here right now going on. You know, I'm just going to start the spirit of the radio. Well, rum is made from sugar. Oh, thank you. Thank you.
    95:37
    Obviously, that was the most epic playing you've ever seen. It's unfortunate that y'all missed it. All right, so I'm going to go there to there. and then is there money in this mode?
    95:56
    I don't think so. I just want to complete it. So I'm just going to hit that shot over and over again.
    96:12
    Jackpots. Three of five. 4 of 5 Uno mas There we go 5 of 5 and now we get to place our What is that all about Don't know what that was about as well
    96:41
    So we want to put it on this shot over here There it is. Retro Game Gal. We got it. We got the play field cam, right? Right? Yeah, yeah. We're good. Sorry. Thank you. It's MJ for pointing that out and Retro Game Gal for calling me out.
    97:00
    Got to be better about that. Okay, so we are first motive done, spirit of the radio. Now it looks like we're working on La Via Strangiata. No, Strangiato, which is a made-up word. Get up there!
    97:27
    Okay, one more try. Okay. I mean, another try. What's it going to give me? Ooh, lit Far Cry lock. Okay, I don't know what all that was about. That's fine.
    97:59
    We've got one. It's pink for big money, which is over there. So I can start big money right now, but there's no bonus on it.
    98:13
    The two acts if I can hit it. Still on big money. And one more to light. It's a different pink, though. The inner loop is currently pink. Yeah, I probably should have nudged or something. Flip stream. Ha, I seem to be in a bit of a rush tonight. I like what you did there. I like it. Flip stream, how the heck are you doing? Whoa, that is an empty can. Yeah, you're good. Oh, all good, all good. That's an empty can we don't need falling all over the GoXLR.
    99:09
    Mmm. That sucked. I hit that shot three times. All right, so we got a Far Cry ball lock. That pink shot is still lit.
    99:33
    One more to light. There goes ball two. Hey, finally done with work tonight. I can relax for 10 minutes before I have to go to bed. Well, thank you for spending those 10 minutes with us. That is appreciated. I feel like my playfield iso is just a little too high. We're going to fix that.
    100:04
    It's because I put some extra lights up there. Sorry for the crotch cam for a second. I think that's better, right?
    100:23
    Yeah, yeah, that looks better. Yeah, I'm going to go with yeah. Ball three. What do I need to hit? Pink, pink. I've got the other pink, that inner pink loop.
    100:53
    I hit it again and it still didn't register, darn it. Ah, good. We moved it. It's now in the right ramp.
    101:16
    Got it. And now Far Cry is lit. We can start our multiball if we can get into it. And we're in big money. Man, we so, so want to start that multiball. Got it.
    101:51
    Uh, nope. you Right ramp, right ramp. All right, this is the weird version of this song that I've got to figure out how to get rid of. So we've got, and we ended up grabbing a darker, a slightly darker purple instead of a pink.
    108:26
    And if you're just joining us tonight, we are not only playing pinball, we're also playing a rhythm game.
    108:34
    You like Mandalorian? Hard game machine. Hey, Cameloo, I do like Mandalorian. I had the pro. I got to, played it pretty well, almost beat it. I didn't get there. and I think I want the premium, but I don't know what I want anymore. I'm in a weird position where I don't know what games I want.
    108:59
    Pink. Oh, so I needed the rush targets to adjust what is currently lit. Hitting them again. Again. Nope.
    109:17
    Nothing is lit pink right now. Big money is still lit, so we can start the mode, but we're only at a 20% shot value.
    109:30
    Crap. There it is. I guess let's just hit this right ramp. It really wants me to hit that inner, the upper inner loop right now. We're at a 30% shot value. I'm going to say screw it and just start the mode. We're good. Want to work on that play field swap for stars? I just want to get stars functional again.
    110:17
    Really? All of that to start La Via Strangiato, and I have to do it all over again. Ugh. Flipstream, it just constantly is restarting right now. Crap, now we're locked on Tom Sawyer?
    111:04
    Oh, man. There are a few gameplay content on Mandalorian. If you have the machine, try to bring content with it.
    111:17
    Try to bring content with it. I didn't actually follow that. Hey, Jedi, how goes it? How goes world domination? It's okay. We're not killing it tonight. But it's the first time I've played pinball in, like, a week and a half. All right, we started Spirit of the Radio. I think we have no bonus on score here.
    111:49
    Oh, but this is the easy-peasy mode. We're just going to loop this shot a few times. Check fuses. I haven't pulled it open yet I've got two pins that have issues right now
    112:29
    Extra ball is lit. Alright, and it looks like we need two more jackpots. There they are. Okay, that mode is done. And then we put our cool every color thingy on that shot. which is great. We've got two oranges lit.
    113:11
    Beautiful, beautiful. Did I accidentally change scenes? No. Sounds like your five-volt line might be having issues. Check your fuses. Okay. Did you try turning it off and back on again? Yes, Retro Game Gal. I did, I did, that's literally the first thing I tried. But I love it regardless.
    113:32
    Let's see, what's, uh, gameplay, what else, uh, what else might you want besides Mando Premium as Retro Game Gal? So, um, Mando, honestly, I kind of want a Mando LE. Like, the Beskar, the Beskar look is pretty frickin' awesome. Outside of that, I really want a Cactus Canyon right now. I just don't know if I should. I like Cactus Canyon. I have played probably, I put about maybe 10, 15 games on it. I really like that game. So I think I want a Cactus Canyon. It's just, do I, should I get a Cactus Canyon? Which is funny because Zach from Flippin' even has a Cactus Canyon right now.
    114:28
    All right, orange on the right ramp. Okay, I need to remember how I did that, because that was an amazing way to get the ball over.
    114:43
    Saw that happening. That's dumb. Queen Dark Lady, welcome. Now, Frisco, I've seen... I mean, I feel pretty confident about what the topper is, and it looks fantastic.
    115:07
    You'll hate it once you realize how broken shootout multiball is for scores. Well, but realize that new code is coming. And it's code from the late Lyman Sheath and Josh Sharp.
    115:21
    Wasn't expecting your tears for fears. Tuning into a rush stream. Queen Dark Lady. Yeah, we got a cool playlist we put together because of Stranger Things.
    115:31
    I played a CCRLE at Northwest Pacific AS. I don't know what the NNW Pass is, but you played it at a pinball show last weekend. Super fun. I like it. I like the theme. I like the way it plays. I love the layout. And knowing that there's an updated rule set and code that Lyman did all of the kind of, like, broad brush strokes on, I think I want it. I just don't know. I did put two games up for sale today and I had three people send me messages about one of them. So we're going to rotate some stuff out in the very near future. I'm excited to see Lyman's Vision. Yeah, Northwest Pinball and Arcade Show. Okay.
    116:28
    Um, you know what? We're going to swap over. Here we go. If you are just joining us from Frisco, this is where we switch things up when we play a slightly different game.
    116:41
    And because I really like the music we have on right now, I'm going to pause it. and then we're going to try and play some sound Voltex here.
    117:12
    Slightly different, slightly different. All right, so this is the sound Voltex controller, and this is a rhythm game. Now, before we get too far, let me give you a much better view of what we're doing here.
    117:31
    Which we do that by going here and saying go to mobile. Right? So this is the controller. There's a twisty knob. There's a couple of these guys and another twisty knob. You can see that it's gorgeous. And then we've got this screen over here, which is what we're looking at.
    117:55
    And now we're back here. Would be really funny if Bumper Nugget snuck up to the door and just screamed inside. That would be very funny.
    118:09
    Okay, so that's good there. Let's... Now I'm afraid the bumper nugget's going to be... going to show up back behind me.
    118:24
    All right. Let's pick another song here. Level 4 seems to be okay. I'm hesitant to jump right into level 5. But we're going to pick a level 4 song here.
    118:41
    No. Really like that last song. Oh, wait, what was that? Flipstream. It's not as complicated as it seems.
    119:08
    That's not bad. We might come back to that one. Ooh, virtual sunrise. Nope, we're doing virtual sunrise. Okay. If it's anything like DDR, you can probably do a slightly harder song as long as the BPM is lower. so we're at 175 beats per minute we're at level 4 so it's not super complicated but you'll see what happens here
    120:12
    Not bad so far. Okay, it's pretty easy. This is a twisty knob. Oh crap, I was looking... I don't think that button's working.
    121:49
    Notice how I blame the controller and obviously not my playing skills. Oh yeah, that button is just hard not working anymore. You can see how these ones are all lighting up.
    122:10
    Ah. Well, that stinks. Who needs that button? I know, right? Back to... I'm going to give it... Just hit it really hard, right?
    122:32
    Seven crates. You broke it! I know. Now, I think... Did this just come off? Which one is it? That one. Oh, the one that just totally fell out?
    123:18
    Well, that would be why it's broken. I don't know how to get it back in there what's holding it in place
    123:50
    Time to get the super glue. Crap. Hmm. Well, this is fun. Yeah, these ones all seem pretty locked in there.
    125:06
    That's weird. Nothing looks broken. It just looks like it popped out. Hmm. All right, give me two seconds here.
    125:33
    Phone scan? We're going to get a knife. because knives fix everything. It's pretty low voltage. I'm assuming I'm going to be okay.
    126:00
    Okay. That popped back out. There we go. It's facing the wrong way. All right, we're good. We're good. I think it's fixed. There's still a knife over here. It's fine. Hey, look at that. Look at that. It's done. We did a thing! We fixed something! Look at us! Tech stream success! Thank you, Queen Dark Lady. Alright, let's give this game a go. Level 5, here we come.
    127:03
    What was that? Nope. Totally judging all these songs by the covers. Done. Well, back to soundvoltex.
    127:42
    Let's see how this goes. A little worried. We're fine, though. We're probably fine. This is hard! This got way harder!
    128:30
    Very weird music. And I'm sucking. Oh, my God. It just got faster. Why is it getting so much faster? and yeah I got an A plus on that there was a lot of missed shots although it also gave me a lot of criticals
    130:00
    so it's kind of hard to see I can't believe Big Red Pimp, thank you. Don't panic, Flip. I mean, you're paying your money. You must be a billionaire if you're wasting your money watching someone else play pinball. Watching someone else play pinball. Big Red Pimp, you're amazing. Thank you. All right, five is most definitely harder, by the way.
    130:35
    And what just... Oh, Flipstream. Just changed the color. Thank you for that. I know. Rest in peace, Gilbert. And, hey, Thorax Senpai, welcome to the stream.
    130:57
    You changed it to Flipstream Blue. I like that. Oh All right all right found a song found a song I like this We going to turn this up just a hair
    131:33
    Cool song. This is really fun. wow are you ready No, no. I'll take it. I will take that. I don't know what I got. That was pretty bad. I dropped the chain at 420? Really?
    133:30
    Hey, Thorax Senpai. Ola, I haven't played much Sound Vortex myself, but I am a big rhythm game nerd. DJ Max is probably my homeboy, as is Groove Coaster. Thorax Senpai, we don't normally play these kind of games. In fact, we're going to switch back over really quick to the more normal game for this channel, which is this guy over here. So that goes off, switching back over to this, and then we'll, yeah, normal, right?
    134:07
    Some music. Normal. That was really good, though. Five is definitely where I'm at right now. Like six would be too much. Five I can work up to. And then I'll hit six eventually. And then one day I'll never get to Escher and Ty's level. I think Ty was at 12 or 13. And Escher is, no joke, 14 easy playing level 15.
    134:39
    Oh, I was brought in from Pinball Wiz originally and watched you do, I believe it was either Star Trek or maybe Stern. Yeah, yep.
    134:46
    Hey, RuneWord, welcome to the stream. I hope everybody's enjoying this shift between games. I have a feeling there's going to be more sound Voltex in the future.
    134:58
    So you're saying you're a 5 out of 20. Yes. I think I'm a 5 out of 20. That sounds about accurate. And hey, TSTechAngel, no, TSSTechAngel, welcome to the stream.
    135:19
    There it is. Here we go. Round two. Did we lock anything? Okay, we've got a green, which is the right orbit. Let's see if we can do that again and get into limelight.
    135:43
    What did I do? that works all right green got it all right so that's two greens do we have any more green yes now we have the right ramp lid
    136:08
    crap we're at 10% on the shot value there crap oh we do have another green though There. Sure, that's fine. Crap. We adjusted it again. So we've got three greens, 20% shot value. Two oranges and a partridge in a pear tree. No idea what just happened. All right, We hit the rush targets again. Darn it.
    137:20
    Did we hit them again? No. All right. Got to hit the rush targets to rotate up the colors. Got it. And I think accidentally started limelight.
    137:32
    That's fine. So we hit green shots. Ten seconds. Zero. So we timed that one out and now we're ready to collect on our limelight. So now we can initiate another limelight opportunity here. And it's all about hitting consecutive green shots. Did we get it? Looks like we did. We've got two.
    138:31
    Ugh. Crap. Not what I meant to do in the least. Man. Oh, thank you. I should probably log in. Thank you, Brian.
    138:57
    Log in. Oh. There we go. Big red pimp dropping 30 bits. Imagine not logging in. All right. Now we're out of limelight. It sucks. We got our Far Cry ball lock.
    139:34
    What do we got now? Big money. Let's grab a pink shot. Or not. There's a pink shot towards big money. Big money is where the big money is at.
    139:57
    Do we have any more of those pink shots lit? We do not. There we go. Second pink shot. Right ramp is lit pink.
    140:32
    We're going to try that again. Crap. Locked in orange. Ah, that left ramp was so lit right there. Hey, we're raving right now. Did we just rave?
    140:59
    Yeah, I haven't programmed up rave into the second light system. All right, whatever. We're in big money. I don't think we're getting any bonus to our shots. That kind of sucks, but whatever.
    141:23
    But we're in a multi-ball, so we got that going for us. Red Barchetta. We're going to get both of those back. That's fine.
    142:05
    Well, that stinks. What is that at? That's 4X. That's not bad. What do we need now? Oh, we're already on multipliers. Great. That should count.
    142:49
    That does not, although we're at 7x here. Do we collect? I think we collect. Yeah, 7x on whatever that is.
    143:06
    And now we do it again. All right, let's see if we can hit this right ramp. Did it. Left orbit.
    143:35
    Beautiful. Now we're going to try right orbit. Got it. Nice. We're at 8x. That should be 9x. Beautiful. Let's hit this left orbit.
    144:01
    Nope. Let's try right ramp. There it is. 10x. Crap. Right orbit. That's 11x. And we just got our 12.
    144:14
    That right there should be 12X on three. Yes. That should be 36 million. 40 million. There we go. That wasn't bad. I'll take that 40 million.
    144:39
    You think you're elite? This guy thinks he's elite. See? Nobody cares. Where's my drink?
    144:50
    What happened? Oh, did we... Apparently they aren't stopping at the router like they're supposed to. Hey, with this music, it feels like Depeche Mode pinball. Oh my god, Jedi Kill. How amazing would that be?
    145:08
    Why is everything flashing all crazy there? What are we getting? Oh, Big Money Champion, huh? Hey, that's got to go to Frisco Pinball. Frisco, if you're still on, what are your initials?
    145:41
    Yeah, Big 80s. I could totally get behind a Depeche Mode pinball. Honestly, I can get behind an 80s pinball machine.
    145:50
    Let's assume Frisco is something with an X. I mean, I know he's... Maybe not. Maybe Frisco, you go with hottie something.
    146:06
    You know what? I'm going... Yeah, Frisco, since you're not on... Frisco is hot for hottie it's not spelled at all like that nice both Jedi and Flipstream jumping in with he spells it Flip or Jedi alright let's do that again but suck a little less this time oh good song a lively tune. I'm inclined to dance.
    146:47
    What are we going for? Orange is something. I don't remember what orange is. Working man, that's right.
    147:10
    Uh, no more oranges lit. I gotta hit those rush targets. There we go. Rush target hit twice. I was thinking that was gonna jump over. No, that sucks. I'm not... Yeah.
    147:31
    No, thank you. Game, don't freak out on me here. Oh my god, it's late. Alright, I'll be... Last game.
    147:46
    Last game. And then maybe... I mean... Maybe one more of that game. But last game. All right, another working man.
    148:13
    Anybody else miss placebo from back in the day? Orange on the right ramp. Got it. Woo! All right, all right, we're doing things. We got three oranges. is we're at plus 10% on the shot value.
    149:01
    Are we dropping frames? I have not checked my stats here in a little bit because I'm evidently not viewing my stats.
    149:17
    Where do I want stats? There we go. OBS is like, really? You wanted to put your staff there? I may crash.
    149:37
    Okay, I'm at less than 1%. Oh, what do I need? Yeah, left. you
    155:50
    And I suddenly can't find that shot. Got it. Clocked out. That's done. All right. What do we got lit? We've got a colored record, multicolored. Oh, no.
    156:57
    Go back into limelight. And that was ball two. We don't have any more greens lit. Oh, it did it. Hit this left orbit.
    157:45
    Darn it. Got it. There's two. Two. We still have green over on that right orbit. Let's see what we can do.
    158:19
    All right, now we're going to try right ram. No, we're not. Wow. I think that's ball three. All right. That did dump the working man champion. Okay.
    158:45
    What song is this? Uh, Cherobin Regain Control. Yeah, this song's awesome. All right, so, mute that. This goes back up.
    159:08
    We switch over to Voltex. Last game on Voltex here. And then we'll call it a night. Here we go.
    159:30
    Another level five, and let's see what happens. Pure evil. I mean, the song's called Pure Evil. How do you argue with that?
    159:59
    Coors K. I'll try to keep the controller as centered as possible. Okay. How did I mess that up?
    160:40
    Thank you. There were some things I had not seen there before. It was a little messed up. Not going to complain. That wasn't awful. I think I hit 400 or 500 maybe without a mistake. A significant mistake at least.
    162:21
    I'll take A+. I'll take A-plus on that. That wasn't bad. All right. And I think that works for the last sound Voltex song for the night. I don't know that that was pure evil. That seemed... I don't know. didn't quite seem pure evil. But everyone,
    162:42
    Game Club Central, welcome to the stream. We are playing some sound Voltex and that's what you walked into. You got time for one more? You got time?
    162:56
    One more, one more. Come on, it's not going to hurt anything, right? Right? We can just do one more.
    163:06
    Let's do one more. Uh-huh. Oh, wait. There was one really good song we did, right? That was a good one.
    163:20
    That was okay. That's the one we just did. We've got to find another cool song. Do we try a level six? I don't think I'm ready for six.
    163:37
    I was gonna start up, but this is fascinating. That might be a little too fast. Oh, there it is. There it is. That is definitely the song to end. You can do it!
    164:07
    All right, we are centered. Turn it up to 11. Yeah, we're going to turn this up. All right, starting over here.
    164:29
    Oh, yeah, definitely digging this song. Thank you. same time, but, man, this is a fun song. Yeah, yeah, so Game Club Central, you guys, if you're just joining, and you're like, what did we just watch? That music there sucks, but the The music that we were just listening to is super fun.
    166:36
    So what do we got here? This is the controller. And notice, you can watch the lights up there, but when I twist this, it twists, and you have to twist it in time with the game as it's showing you the music moves one direction or the other. Then you got these guys.
    166:56
    And then you've got this down here. Oop, this one's a little stuck. I may have to pull that one apart. And then you get a second twisty dial, and then this is your start button.
    167:09
    So that's the setup. Buttons and dials. Sheepwalla, is this your first rhythm game? Sheepwalla, I mean, I've played a ridiculous amount of Guitar Hero and DJ Hero and Rock Band and Between the Drums. So this is the first, I would say, Japanese rhythm game I've ever given a go.
    167:34
    And bop it and pull it. My ADHD is in heaven. Yeah, so Game Club Central, you can see kind of what's going on in here. Hold up.
    167:44
    So if we switch this back over here, this is just magnets and... And it's this one. Ah, there we go. Wasn't locked in place. Now it's good. We got it. All the shiny lights. Yep.
    168:08
    Well, I mean, now that it's fixed, we do. Yeah. Now that it's fixed. Oh, my God. That's so much better. So much better.
    168:23
    Yeah. Seems to be a recurring theme for the controller. Well, I mean, it's also very fixable. Like, that's the first time... Yeah, okay, we gotta test it, right?
    168:34
    Make sure that we fixed it appropriately. Yeah, we fixed that button earlier. That button we just fixed. These seem to be doing... Oh, geez, no, don't adjust those.
    168:48
    You know what, let's do another, I'm not going to search. Yeah, we're going to do Infinity Overdrive.
    169:01
    This is a good song. What does this button do? All right, you ready? Here we go again. This is much harder! a little bit more fun.
    170:41
    No! Don't mess up! This is fun! Oh my god, that's such a fun game! Oh, man. That was really, really cool. All right. I'm going to turn this down before it gets too crazy.
    171:20
    Tested. All of the buttons are working, obviously. We played that so much better. What is that, A plus on that? That's awesome.
    171:31
    Catching back up. Is it fixed? I mean, what does this button do? I'm sorry. I got hungry, so I pushed the button that said lunch. My bad. You are not Geddy Lee, but I will take it. Hey, I'm really happy with everything that just happened there. That was a super fun game, a really fun stream. Thank you, everybody, for hanging out tonight. I came back from South Carolina yesterday. Could not, due to weather, get back in time to stream last night. But we're back on our standard schedule. What do we have coming up? We've got Thursday on the Pinball Network. I might be taking over for Jedi McMuffin on Saturday, also on the Pinball Network. And then Monday and Tuesday next week, I think, are going to be standard streams. And then we've got episode two of season two of Iron Pinball next week, Thursday. Right now it is me versus Joel from Just Another Pinball Podcast, a.k.a. Just Another Pinball Stream on some Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. I'm excited. I think that is going to be a wonderful time. Is that bumper nugget? Oh, ha ha. Well done.
    172:44
    You guys, have a great night. Thank you again. Let's go find someone to raid. And, wait, Flip, Game Club Central, are you getting on?
    172:56
    Because we can just send people your direction. and gotta check gotta check you know who's who's on right now firestorm have a great night uh-huh okay oh yeah you're on cool hey we're gonna send everybody over to game club central so you guys have a good night we'll see you around there's a there's an exit button here somewhere oh there it is Have you been inundated with ads and questions related to TPN's now famous homemade pinball pudding line of puddings? Questions like... TPN's pinball pudding is so good, it must be illegal, right? What the fuck is pinball pudding? How can a collection of content creators also be a pudding? That makes no sense. And we hear you. You want to know what makes TPN so special? The answer is in TPN's secret ingredient. Simply, proof. Other puddings may say they have it too, but watch as they're unable to back those statements up. Well, I'm not a crook. Do we have evidence of that? It might be a tumor. It's not a tumor. Evidence? I'm gonna give you up. I'm gonna let you down. Evidence? Richard, do I have a mark on my face? Right here. Not here or here so much, but right here. That's evidence. Without this city, I'm knock and roll.
    174:41
    Again, request for more evidence. You can't handle the truth. Do you have evidence of that?
