    medium · George discussion of MPT3K and Surreal dealing with 'massive updates' when 'Twitch keeps changing their stuff' and speculation that Twitch developers are deliberately making changes to force rebuilds

    • Dance Panda, welcome, who is all jacked up on Mountain Dew. Dance Panda, is it the thing I've been working on that you've been helping me, like, save videos? Is that Miley Cyrus who has the really deep voice?
    9:02
    Maybe that was George's way of telling his kiddo what to do. When passive aggression fails, you just tell the other kid how much their parents never loved them. Wait, I got to go back up because there was a simple fix. You match passive aggression with aggression aggression. Right, right. Well, and that even came up today because I was working and Zoe had some chores that she was doing at home. And she was making small clips, video clips, and then sending them off to her friends. Somebody just did something. Mr. Hardluck just increased the stream's XP by 500 by paying 9,000. That's going to get us to level three. Mr. Hardluck, welcome. We just hit level three. There is no video for this. We're going to – there's opportunity to really jazz this up a little bit. Yeah, huzzah. We're there. We're now at the glitch theme. We went from retro. Now we're in glitch. We also – no, I don't think three is a milestone. Now it's George's turn to do Pete Davidson's dance. You never loved me, Mom. No, that's – we're never doing that again. But, Dice, thank you. I appreciate the suggestion. I also want to point out let's not set high expectations at all in terms of playing pinball. It's been a month, and it was an actual break from pinball, and I mean that in just about every way. Was able to focus on family heavily, on Zoe, on relationship stuff.
    10:42
    Hats off to Dance Panda there. Yep, a lot of biking, a lot of working out, a lot of running. And, yes, we watched The Princess Bride recently. We just got back from seeing across the Spider-Verse for the second time, which actually is why things got so late.
    11:04
    And, yeah, do better. Yeah, end of school year is a wildly busy time for parents and kids. It is. Joe, you know exactly what I'm talking about here, which is that weird transition from your kid's good from 8 or 7.30 in the morning until 3 or 4 in the afternoon to, oh, my God, what do I do with a kid for eight hours? You just ran that gauntlet. Yep. George, do better in this economy. Yep. Dance Panda just subscribed. I don't think it did.
    11:35
    There was no triggers. I got nothing in Twitch's activity feed. I don't know who you're subscribing to, Jay-Z. It's nobody over here.
    11:46
    We didn't get, yeah, there's, I mean, Twitch doesn't even know about this supposed subscription to Dance Panda. that. I don't know. I don't know. I got nothing. Also, fun thing about working out. You need to eat a lot in order to actually convert. I didn't. Oh, no, my sorry. My hats off wasn't to you subscribing. My hats off was to spending time on the relationship. Right. Brooklyn Pin, welcome. And you can eat a lot too. Yes. Because you saw it. No, I didn't see it. There was nothing. There's nothing in there about that. The hats off was the fact that we had spent so much time on the relationship over the past month. Dice. Jack Danger quits. We lose notifications. When will this madness end? I know. It was a sad day in Hoonville. There was a lot of people stepping back. You know, I was going back and forth with Manu, MPT3K. And I know his break wasn't, I think, for personal reasons so much as Twitch keeps changing their stuff, and it requires massive updates on his part. There's a lot of – his tech is over-the-top amazing. But when Twitch changes stuff, his tech requires a lot of work, as I'm assuming both MPT3K and Surreal know. They've been through it a bunch. that was a sub to please panic flip okay see now wait a second it was a it was a sub to do that oh wait I should be going up here there we go random coincidence but it didn't come through there's there's no notifications even from twitch that that happened I'm sure they're watching my news and surreal and throwing darts at a board with a bunch of sticky notes giggling about the changes they'll make. You know what we should do? We should deprecate this endpoint and this particular version and give them nothing else in response. Like they're going to have to use six endpoints now to achieve this one thing. Just like that. Also, how is the video? How is the sound? I just kind of turned it all on. And if you were here early enough, you saw we cleaned off the game. I re-leveled the game, so maybe that will help. We're going off on a weird series of conversational tangents here. The video is very on. The sound is super audible. Dice, thank you. I appreciate that. Let's see. What else? I'm curious, what has everyone else been up to for the past, let's say, three to four weeks? Evidently, the ability to see subs has gone away.
    14:32
    Out of all of the streams I'm watching and listening to, you're killing it right now. Kisco, welcome, was just at a wedding in Madison. Congratulations to whomever got married. Congratulations to them.
    14:50
    I'm trying to think of what else on my side. Oh, I was talking about working out. Hey, my neck of the woods, says Dice. Your cousin. Okay, well, congratulations to your cousin. the obvious question there is that the no not not even gonna ask it i'm sure dice will as a follow-up uh kuzco kuzco topia um man what else uh oh so yeah i was talking about as a part of working out if you actually want to build muscle. You have to eat a lot. It is really difficult to do. And due to work getting kind of crazy, by the way, we're going to have another gap coming up. I actually have a big trip I have to go do. We're doing a big presentation out in the Washington, D.C. area. So I will be out for a week of streams at the end of June. So in two weeks. the poison, the poison for Cusco. Cusco's poison.
    15:58
    And, oh, but, sorry, working out, you have to eat a lot. So if you don't eat a lot, but continue the working out, it was very frustrating. But it was a surprising, like, lost a bunch of weight accidentally, because I just wasn't eating enough to try and maintain it, as Dance Panda pointed out. It was amazing for the abs, though. They really shone through for about a week there. It's like, oh, my God, that's, it's there. It's there. It looks amazing. It was an accidental cut. But it was also a big loss. Like, I wasn't trying for that. I was trying to bulk up a little bit more before we went into a cut. Kisco, yes, I do creatine. Absolutely.
    16:43
    Spyro just used their Prime subscription for the wrong account. I meant to subscribe to you, my bad. Spyro, it's all good. Thank you. Abs are made in the kitchen. That is absolutely true. You can work out your muscles all you want to, but abs must be revealed is how that goes.
    17:06
    And, yep, Kitsko, it's funny. Creatine gets a lot of crap for some reason. I don't really understand why. Thank you. This is a nice shirt.
    17:18
    Hey, Kirk Hobbs, welcome. I challenge anyone to hand me a knife. I'll find your abs. Dice, way to make it weird. Thank you.
    17:31
    I don't even remember that. That totally derailed my thinking. Oh, creatine. So creatine, exactly, yeah. Spoke to a couple of doctors about creatine and then did a bunch of online research. As long as you are hydrating, there are zero issues. It's thoroughly tested, and there's really no negative side effects. So it really is great. Show the book.
    18:02
    You can always count on me to make it weird. How much water is in a Mountain Dew? I'm not sure. Right? So how hydrated are you if you just drink Mountain Dew? Mountain Dew, the nutrition book. Oh!
    18:30
    Chaotix, welcome to the stream. So we've got two books that we've really been focusing on here, which are How Food Works and The Science of Nutrition.
    18:43
    And these are awesome. On top of that, the publisher is DK. And I'm just going to open to a random page. Here we go. Look, it's very colorful and detailed. You guys probably can't hear me. Let's just continue. Oh, yeah, look at that. I love when content in books is broken up like this with lots of cool pictures. Creatine doesn't make your genitals shrink like most other bodybuilding stuff does. Sweet. Worth a shot. Yes. Kirk Hobbs. Absolutely.
    19:18
    Picture. It is. DK makes amazing picture books for grownups. All right. Wait. Kisco, what's the lineup look like? Right now, Foo Fighters, Mandalorian, and The Walking Dead. And I have a, no, no, it's not, it's not pop-up pictures, Dice. So those are the three I have currently. Also behind, you'll see, I got that polycade over there. That has been played, I know, only three, Kisco. That polycade has been played almost exclusively the past two weeks. Realize that I've still got Pulp Fiction on order. I got an LE, and I have a selling one of my rentals, and a reward will be a fourth pinball machine while we wait for Pulp Fiction to get here. Yeah, Kirk Hobbs, three is definitely the lowest pin count in four years, let's say, four or five years. It's been a while since I've been down to three, and I'm really happy with all three of these games. Walking Dead is brutal. Mandalorian, we are so close to finishing. Should we all chip in and send you one?
    20:33
    We'll get a four. The problem is I wanted arcade games, and I've got all the equipment down, so that way we'll be able to play pinball and then go walk over there and stream from over there because we have all the wireless stuff. No Scooby-Doo dice. That's definitely not happening. But that's amazing. I love that. Right now, Ape Out is the game that I have been playing constantly. I am not, not only am I not a fan of the license, I'm, I don't think we're seeing Scooby-Doos go up in value right now. You do Escape Nublar or Defeat the Beast? I, I have, I'm trying to think, I mean, I've, I've done, I've gotten to both.
    21:17
    That's, oh, sorry, you're asking on the new pin, which one is it going to be? Is it going to be Iron Maiden or Jurassic Park? And that is an excellent question. I've been loving the F out of my Scooby-Doo. Sending George a saw and a hammer is much cheaper than buying him a machine. Excellent point. Yes.
    21:34
    Scooby-Doo. I'm glad. Dice, I am glad you are enjoying Scooby-Doo. As I accidentally told the entire.
    21:48
    Oh, my God. What's the manufacturer that makes Scooby-Doo? I'm trying to think of it. what's their name right now?
    21:56
    Wow. Total blank. That's how far. There's Stern. There's JJP. Oh, Spooky. Thank you. It rhymes with Spooky. As I accidentally told the entire Spooky team at Texas Pinball Festival, I need Spooky to demonstrate a successful launch of a pinball machine with really good software in a machine that holds its value before I'll invest in their company again. Is there anything stopping you from knocking a hole in your wall to your neighbor's house and storing a few in there? Honestly, the neighbors behind me would probably love it. I know, Joe, it was such an accident. I didn't know. Like, they were fishing for, we were eating lunch. And what sucks is everybody else at the table knew. Like, I had Amanda Hamilton, Michael.
    22:51
    It wasn't Zach Menny because he wasn't there. But there was, like, two or three other people from who were in that group. And I'm kind of forgetting who all was there. And not realizing that sitting right next to us was the spooky crew. The whole, like, the muffin squirrel, like, all of the people were at the table. And the one guy looks over at us, and we see that he has a pinball hat that says Scooby-Doo. And, oh, you guys are here for the pinball thing, too. Yeah, and they asked, what do you think of Scooby? And I just, I had had a couple drinks. So I launched into a little bit of a poorly timed parade. and we left shortly afterwards. It was great. I'll invest in your product once you do one. Well, no offense though. It was really honest. I mean, like I didn't know who I was talking to. So I just explained that I bought an Ultraman and I lost almost 2,000 on it. And that I'm lucky because other people lost four to 5,000 on an Ultraman by keeping it unfortunately too long with the thought that the software was going to get somewhere and that it was going to be an enjoyable bin. So why is that all that? Yeah, exactly. I'm not getting an invite to their next game review, which I thought was hilarious.
    24:18
    Good thing you didn't have a few drinks before your kiddo asked for friend advice. Yep. No, no, no. Started afterwards. I'm really hoping that she's falling asleep right now and not desperately listening in. She knows that she's not allowed to stream until she's older. so yeah she's not on the stairs thankfully if you want to embarrass yourself in front of me sometime soon I'm hoping to grab Dory Hill tickets for my kid and I when they go on sale this weekend Joe get in there for you and your kid so I'm bringing a pin when you bring a pin I think you can get up to two tickets and I didn't have anyone else to get a ticket for So I told him just the one. I am so sorry. Had I have known, I would have definitely just given you the second ticket. New Scooby code update. Final wizard mode is defeat George. Meta Knightman. Don't panic flip. I'm planning on going to Dory Hill as well. Got it. Okay.
    25:22
    Honestly, it's not even the paying. Joe, you would still have to pay, but it just guarantees you a ticket. So that's it. And, yeah, I know how hard they are working to organize it.
    25:35
    It's exactly it. I sent a big thank you off to Deanna and Snow. So what we're talking about is Dory Hill, which is a camping tournament where you bring, I think there's going to be 60-odd pins at this Dory Hill campsite. And it's in September, and it typically gets a little bit colder.
    25:54
    So you're going to want a tent heater if you're bringing a tent and you end up camping there. It is amazing. It is such a fun time, and it is three days. So you get there Friday. There's a tournament Friday. Saturday is pin golf qualifying. Sunday is the actual tournament. Dance Panda pointing out, if it's not raining or snowing, which it did both of the last time we were there, just make sure to bring plenty of warm clothing.
    26:19
    Do not forget the warm clothing portion. It could be an amazing weekend, and it could also be a real struggle. Like, Saturday for qualifying was awful weather. Sunday was gorgeous for the actual tournament. And that's also just Colorado. I'm going to try and see if people want to camp at the hotel. Meta Knightmen, I had done that previously. If you can't get a campsite, that is, you can go. The hotels there are fantastic.
    26:48
    What's the name of that? Blackhawk. Those hotels are amazing. They're gorgeous. It's a beautiful area. The problem is it's a 10-minute drive away when everybody else is drinking. So you kind of have to miss out on a lot of the fun where people begin to enjoy themselves in an early evening, and there's campouts in order to make sure that you're able to drive the 10 or 15 minutes away. And on top of that, it's mostly dirt roads to get there. So it's not that you should never drink and drive ever, but even more so it's pitch black because there's no lights. you are out in the mountains and it is not a very safe road on top of everything else.
    27:28
    Let's see. I'll get one of those houses you can just throw on a trailer and I'll rent rooms with games in them. Yeah, there you go. Watch this here. It will be 90s. Dance Panda, I hope so. We've had the weirdest weather in Colorado. It hasn't stopped raining in like a month. It's so weird. I'm thinking we may need to do the hotel. Not sure about transport. Like if, No, go hills. There are no lifts. I'm 90-odd percent positive that there are no lifts.
    28:00
    Hit me up, though. If you end up snagging a ticket and you're going to come out here, we can probably work something out. I don't know if you're flying in or if you're driving out. But, yeah. You can get a bus to the casino hotel. Yes. Okay. Let me know if you guys are going to fly out here. We'll figure something out. because I'm driving my camper and I'll be staying in my camper there, but we could drive a couple of cars out or something like that so that way you have transport to and from. So you're telling me there's an opportunity to be the only ride share? Yes, dice. I'm fairly certain there is no Ubers to and from the campsite. I say that. I don't know. Maybe there are. I don't think so. It's in the middle of nowhere. Like even, to give an example, Glenwood Springs, which has all of the most amazing hot springs, has like two people total. Oh, that's the other part. Dance Panda is pointing out the cell signal is real iffy in that entire area.
    29:03
    Yeah, exactly. Joe, hit me up. Okay. And, yeah, I would be amazing if it was the 90s the entire time. I would take hot. Oh.
    29:17
    We're going to hope for some. 11 raiders from Rain City Pinball. We just got raided. Rain City, my hat's off to you. Thank you and welcome. If you're coming over, Pepper Bowen, Retro Game Gal, Cell Processing, Homegrown B-Dub, welcome. Yep, first stream back on in a long time. Thank you so much for the raid. Rain City, how was your stream? what is your favorite color and what were you streaming? Those are the two questions. On top of that, y'all, if you are not already following Rain City Pinball, you should. Fantastic people, and they're just really fun to chat with and be around. So make sure you click the name. Make sure you click the follow button.
    30:06
    Homegrown, doing the family and dating and life with weird work stuff. Stream was good. My favorite color is probably purple. Yes, Retro Game Gal. That is also my favorite color. And we played Cactus Canyon Remake LE.
    30:24
    That's high up there on the list. Yo, I've got a question of the night for you. I've been sitting on some since you left. Dice, let's hear it. I want to hear what the question of the night is.
    30:36
    If you won't let me talk about cults, I doubt he'll let you. I was told you are a cult. Wait, wait, I'm a cult?
    30:51
    Let's see here. Homegrown's favorite color is blue. Spyro, I've seen a few other toppers on Pinside. Might buy one of those. The only way I would have the Stern Godzilla topper is if I won it, but even then I'd probably turn around and sell it. No red tossed over the bridge. I'm also not a fan of red. In fact, I, because of COVID, was forced to buy, I needed a particular car that met certain dimensions, and I ended up buying a red car, and I hated it after six months.
    31:20
    Chaotix. Yeah, purple is the only answer. Welcome to the Church of George Welcome All right buckle up y If a werewolf astronaut goes to the moon do they keep dipping in and out of transformation or are they a wolf from the time they land Interesting. Joe commenting, saying, depends on the phase where they are, right?
    31:42
    Oh, cell processing is colorblind, so can only see blue. I kind of only like white cars. Every car I've picked out has been white. I'm a retro game gal. Not only do you like purple, it sounds like people aren't a fan of red, and I just bought my first white car ever, and I am in love with it.
    31:59
    Pepper Bowen, pink, nice. Pink is a solid good color. Most cars look good in white. I agree. White and black have been the colors I typically stick with.
    32:11
    If a vampire cop with a warrant comes to your door, do they still need permission to enter? I guess it depends on, wow, Dice, are you throwing them out, just shotgunning all of these questions at once because you've been holding on to them for so long? Is that what's happening here?
    32:32
    The question is, what is the type of vampire? Because Twilight does not need permission to enter your home, right? But permission is required in many different, I guess, vampire ones. I'm trying to think. Even in the Dresden Files, vampires need permission, but also magic users in general in Dresden Files need permission to enter. And if they don't get permission, they leave their magic basically at the door. um and as far as i don't think that a werewolf is a werewolf on the moon i don't know what triggers it is it is it the light is it the on a full moon it's a gravitational that the gravitational adjustment is it just a higher level of gravity forces like their body can't compensate or adjust and they have to get more powerful and that's why they change So I'm inclined to think that they don't change.
    33:40
    Pepper Bowen, I really got into vampire stuff a while ago. If you're in a spaceship, the phase of the moon would look different. You may turn into one depending on your angle of approach. That's, once again, assuming that it's the light bouncing off the moon that's actually causing the transition. as opposed to some other impact that a full moon has on the earth. Hey, Hollywood, welcome.
    34:10
    All right. It's only been 30 minutes of chatting. Right, exactly. Joe, that's what I'm getting at. Maybe whatever force that a full moon, the full moon impacts tidal waves, so it has some sort of an effect on the earth. I haven't done enough – it's not geography. I guess that would be basic physics to know specifically what that force or effect is. But maybe that is what actually triggers a lycanthropic shift. Would that be the appropriate way to describe that? Talking about blood moons and stuff. Sounds like a cold surprise.
    34:51
    Hollywood, I'm good. Doing well. Needed a bit of a reset. Took some time off of streaming. Got the opportunity to focus on summer and kid. I was going to say kids, but kid.
    35:06
    Thank you, Pepper Bowen. I read a lot of science fiction and fantasy. I think there's a lot of people in this chat, though, that do that. George kicked my butt on this table multiple times at TPF and got my butt kicked, I want to point out. It's all about how the moon looks. Remember in Harry Potter, in Harry Potter, in Harry Potter, the moon behind the cloud is powerless. The moon that reveals from behind the cloud is the one that made him turn into a werewolf. Interesting. Kirk Hobbs, once again, is it the light then? Or can anyone suffering from lycanthropy shift whenever they want to? And it's some sort of a cultural thing. Like when I yawn, other people yawn, which is like some sort of an interesting trigger. Is it the same thing? And there are plenty of werewolf books where werewolves oftentimes find a way to change at will, that it's just a block. Like they're forced to trigger or move during a full moon, but once you gain control of the wolf in many of these, they have the opportunity to shift at will. Maybe have a moon umbrella, a paraluna instead of a parasol. D. Kaiser, I just yawned when you said yawn. Exactly. You just have to say yawn.
    36:26
    And some people, a lot of people might be like, or, in fact, seeing me yawn can trigger that. It's a thing.
    36:37
    BG is looking great. Stream upgrade. The background, BG. What's the BG? B, G, the Bee Gees. It depends on their level of empathy. One more, just one more, then I'll sit on the rest. Would you rather kick a brick wall with toothpicks under your toenails, or would you rather drink salt water with a tongue full of paper cuts? A tongue full of paper cuts, sir, because that's gone in 10 minutes.
    37:07
    Thank you. Spyro just yawned. Background animation talk. Okay, got it. Awesome. Homegrown, thank you. When you said yawn, I cackled instead of yawning. But a sudden, loud, unexpected cackle.
    37:20
    I like it. Joe Hill isn't down with the system, doesn't allow the, I don't know, doesn't adhere to the norms and the cultural requirements. He does his own thing.
    37:38
    Let's spin this the right way. Let's get a game in. All right, so the sound is not very high here. I'm going to turn this up just a bit.
    38:05
    There you go. Now you've got to stay curious. I know why that went that way. All right, is that too loud? Is that a good sound?
    38:19
    Never, I laugh in the face of your open mouth. Never become a slave to your empathy. Cackle at the weakness of others. Dice, I need dice in my back pocket. Just for those moments where I'm reaching out to my brain, to the open gray matter of my brain, hoping it will respond back with something witty and awesome. and instead I get something really stupid like a lycanthropic switch or shift or something like that. And instead I want to sound awesome, like never become a slave to your empathy, tackle at the weakness of others. Yes.
    38:57
    A homegrown commenting could be louder, but I'm hard of hearing. All right, we're going to turn it up just a bit.
    39:07
    All right, is that too loud? Can you still hear me okay? Okay. Oh, Dice saying you might have to go down half a smidge. Sounds like the sound needs to get on my level. I'm on my third blunt and second cocktail. I'm going to put it back.
    39:21
    I don't want to overpower. Oh, Queen Dark Lady thinks it's good now. Okay. I'm going to turn it up a little bit. If it's loud, if it gets too loud, y'all let me know. Okay, and I think at this point there's a good chance my kid is actually asleep. it's been 40 minutes since the last time she called me up, so we're good. Oh, guys, I'll just take my headphones off better. All right, let's do it. This is literally the first game of pinball I've played since the last stream. All right, in this, we want to hit the white shots. So let's hit white shots. Solid start. All right. Lots of fun things happening. Uh-oh. So, log in. My God, you forgot everything.
    40:30
    We'll log in at the end. I'm so not, I needed to log in beforehand. I think I'm set up. Wait, what, please tell me, is the log in in response to, or is the problem in response to the log in?
    40:45
    I'm assuming it is. We're going to go Los Angeles first. That was the problem. Okay, good. There's one.
    41:02
    Alright, that did not work. One. Wow. One. Two. All right, how many more do we need? I think 34 seconds. I don't know if that's the progress bar. Maybe one more shot. Yeah?
    41:47
    All right, let's hit. That shot and... All right, we've got to hit the middle shot. There we go. Got it. Woo! First mode is done. Los Angeles. I still haven't learned the actual city tourist optimal strategy. I just always choose New Orleans because it reminds me of... Joe, I do the exact same thing. I do the exact same thing because I like New Orleans food. I complain about New Orleans food not being spicy, but even though it's not as spicy as I want it to be, it is still better food than what I'm normally used to. Pepper Bowen, yes. Starting off good. We have a mode completed. I'll take it. So we're going to go middle and try and capture...
    42:45
    All right. I was going to say that other thing, but we're not doing that. So I'll go... Oh, no. Yeah, our food is the best. Southeast Louisiana boy here. It is very good.
    43:13
    Tap the pass. All right, what are we doing? We're doing that. There it is. All right, now we've got our mode prepped. also we've got that flashing yellow all right uh we have a multi-ball prep so i'm going to go to new orleans i think to prep the multi-ball which is just like every shot
    44:11
    All right. All right, what do we need here? What do we need? All right, that's good. All right, so we got ourselves an add-a-ball, which is great. I'll take it.
    45:03
    Okay, we're cool. We're just calming down for a second. Oh, no. All right, we're cool. We're cool. Now I'm catching up. All y'all from Louisiana. Wow, I can't say that word. Need to mail me a case of Boudini. Oh, my God. Boudini is so good.
    45:26
    All right, so we completed New Orleans. Wow. So now we're just having fun in a multiball. Who does that? So I'm going to try a little under, over, and then try and hit this right orbit.
    45:41
    Did not get there. That'll do. What do I need to hit? I think I need to work on that. Okay. Now we're ready to capture again. Got it.
    46:11
    Oh my god, and I double drained. Ha! Alright, solid start. Sammy Higgins, welcome to the stream. It has been a while. Nice, went to LA Tech. My memory of Lafayette was going to see Pulp Fiction there in a weird small theater that had columns in it. Were the columns in between your view of where you were sitting and the actual movie, did it obstruct your vision?
    46:48
    Let's see. My family is from Louisiana. Pepper, Louisiana cooking is definitely my all-time favorite. Did we get an extra ball yet? No.
    47:06
    So we got a hit. Nope. Ooh, that was an interesting ball. Okay, so I think we did get our extra ball. Now we're on ball three.
    47:36
    And now we are ready to actually start our third. So let's do... I don't know. Let's do Seattle. Let's see if we can grab another multiball.
    48:02
    Grab that right ramp. Ah, we got to get back up there. Darn it. That is so cool. Combo Tron. And that's fine. We got ourselves a double danger. We may have moved the machine just a bit. No big deal.
    48:46
    Dude, your pimple... It could have been... Thank you. But... First game in a very long time.
    48:58
    That'd be super funny. That poster lied to me. They said John Travolta was in, but I only heard his voice. Wait.
    49:06
    We are actually from a much smaller part. Use that as a landmark. Oh, yeah, Pepper. When people say they're from Chicago, they don't actually mean they're from Chicago.
    49:16
    Right? Like you are in a suburb just north of Chicago. Let's see. Catching back up. Dice, thank you for sharing the Discord. You're more than welcome to join and chat about all the things. No idea, but boudin tastes like happy, and I just used my last of it I bought last year. Yeah. Dice, that, yep. Lots of boudin. Boudin is also made from bread. So what we need is a boudin version that is gluten and dairy free. Blue hat wearing penguin, welcome. Finally, you guys are on. It's been a while. I'm sorry. It has been a while. Took a break. And feeling much better about streaming. Also, in the near future, I've got all the gear. Wait, wait, wait.
    50:03
    I've got all the gear. so in the very near future that over there that arcade cabinet, the polycade will absolutely be hooked up and we will be streaming and switching from pinball to that and man I am trying desperately to get better at the game Ape Out right now which is just fantastic it's very bloody but oh it's so fun and it's a game that it's brutal it's like you think to yourself if you've not ever played or seen Ape Out, you're like, I mean, how brutal can it be? No, it is gorgeous and horrifically brutal. And it is every, every second of it is fun. Yeah, self-processing. So I've been through it, the first record once, and I haven't played through any of the others. I'm guessing there's like eight different records you have to play. It's gorgeous. It sounds amazing. It's visually fun. And every time you beat it and go back and play it, it gets a little bit harder. It is, it's exactly, I feel like the kind of game that, that makes me want to go, it has that one more game feel to it. So I am super jazzed to play that.
    51:11
    And then of course the, the poly cave is just, it's awesome. I'm loving it. And I've got some controllers coming, uh, which will allow me to play games that require analog joysticks as well. A lot. Oh man. Self-processing the, yeah. When you, when you pull the door out and then you're just and smash and destroy somebody with the big metal door.
    51:36
    It's just great. It really is. Dice, when I make it next, I'll gladly send you some. It would be cheaper that way for sure. I would definitely send you a Wisconsin care package in response. I'm assuming there would be lots of cheese dice in that one.
    51:50
    Oh, I'm also out of a drink. So give me just a moment here. I don't actually know what the intro for this looks like. Give me a second. Let's see what happens.
    52:05
    Fear not, for you are found. You are home, and there is no going back. No one leaves this place. But what is this place?
    52:18
    The answer is the Pinball Network. Surrounded by cosmic gateways, TPN is on the edge of the known and unknown. It is the collection point for all lost and unloved things. Like you. But here on TPN, you are significant. You are valuable. Here, you are loved.
    52:40
    Where once you were nothing, now you are something. You are the property of the Pinball Network. Congratulations.
    52:49
    You will meet with the Pinball Network. Seconds. Prepare yourself. You are now meeting the Pinball Network. Ah!
    53:11
    That was actually perfect. Level three is the perfect duration for a quick break to go grab a beverage. Joe Hales, I can't believe Zach Menny didn't strap George into a chair in front of a green screen and reshoot this. Zach knows what he's doing. He actually gets it. He knows how to make some fantastic videos. Also, Pepper, what are you making and how do I get in on any kind of just assuming whatever it is is Cajun-style spicy, and I'm talking like sweating that kind of spicy, how do I get in? Don't panic, Cliff. I've been curious. Are you allowed to embed your fake ads that you've created now that Twitch is cracking down on that kind of thing?
    53:57
    That's interesting. I don't know. I've been out of the loop for the past month on Twitch and what's going on.
    54:05
    I don't know. Their fake ads were not actually selling anything. Oh, you're making boudin. Okay, here's a question. Pepper, do you make it with raisins?
    54:18
    although I can't get in on budin there's just no I don't know that there's any any way to make it gluten and dairy free you and Zach could do that whole bit from scratch Hemsworth be damned give me like another six months and I still will look nothing like Hemsworth but I I'm hoping to put on like another five pounds in this in the next six months of of of muscle I'm I'm I'm at the point right now where I'm going four days a week consistently and sometimes five. We pronounce it boudin and it's sausage. Oh, no. Interesting. So boudin is, my ex is Puerto Rican and I've only had it her way of doing it, which is a Puerto Rican delicacy. And it's a sweet, it's a sweet dish. So it's raisins with almost like a sweet bread mixture that you often have cooled as opposed to warm. Like you make it, you put it in the fridge, and then you can eat it for a week kind of thing. Watch the Arnold documentary on Netflix and get swole. Dr. Kudlitek, I've actually seen quite a bit of it. As much of a joke as Arnold can be, he actually has throughout the past 30 years some fantastic advice about working out and like staying focused mentally on the muscles that you're trying to engage it's it's awesome and pepper i'm i'm so sausage and rice no gluten i'm in i i mean if at least send the recipes so that way i can make it at the very least because savory and spicy is that's that's the world that i want to live in yeah my mouth is watering right now. You can eat it, George. You just have done the toilet post-workout. Okay. Let's switch back over. Let's get another game in. All right. The Pretender's good.
    56:27
    Times Like These is pretty good. I think that's what we're going to go with. All right. Let's try it. Round number two.
    56:34
    Solid start. That could not have gone more perfectly down the middle. Loved it. Love where the game's head is at.
    57:00
    All right. We are ready at this point to start our first mode. Got it. I'm going to go back to Los Angeles.
    57:20
    No, I'm not. There we go. Are you going back to, like, Friday night streams? Because I'd love to come back up there soon. Meta Knightman, that Friday night was just for you. I don't do Friday night streams. I don't do Friday night streams because they, oh, I guess we're doing Los Angeles. Honestly, because Manu does Friday night. That is the big reason I have avoided Friday nights for like three years.
    57:52
    All right, there's one maybe. Let's try it again. One. Okay, now we're going to backhand and then on the fly. Ah!
    58:27
    Not good. Wow, that was very wild. I really, I struggle hard with that right ramp. Man. Let's see here. We've got, oh, yeah. Night bot. I'm ignoring you. All right, so we've got to get back into the mode.
    59:00
    Got to find that right ramp, honestly. Like, that is my... That's my kryptonite right now. Oh, hey, you got a job doing IT at my... Congratulations, Meta Knightmen, on the new job.
    59:29
    All right. We're going to do it again. There we go. Got to find that right ramp. So we're going to go left ramp, right ramp. Left. Wow, it was very late.
    59:46
    Also, very late again. Count it. Which one's it going to give to me? Oops, somebody just... Stealth Processing just cheered! Thank you very much, Cell Processing.
    60:19
    Thank you. Oh, and you just hit level four. You never lost me, mom. All right, we're going to try this again. Twelve seconds. One.
    60:43
    Two. Three. We got it. We got it. We did the thing. Oh, wow. And we just hit the hype train. What? Oh, no. Cell processing. My hat's off to you. Welcome back. And I hate commercials and Jack's not working anymore. So here you go. Thank you. Although, to be fair, I think Jack is actually working. Somebody just did something. Oh, wow. What just happened? Okay.
    61:15
    We just leveled up. Sammy Higgins, you subscribed this year, right? You just subscribed this year. Jeff, welcome. How are you doing, Jeff?
    61:24
    Brian and I were just talking, man. You definitely need to go grab some drinks here soon. Homegrown just cheered 200 bits. Self-processing. Resubscribe with Prime. Wow, I missed out on a lot here in the past 60 seconds. That all says one minute ago. And look at us. We have just hit level eight. We are now in Windows XP mode.
    61:50
    Homegrown, hope you stream this more. Going to lurk in place of Melvira. Homegrown, enjoy it. I need to see this game more. Kill it, George. I'm trying.
    61:58
    What? That is not a cheer. It was a cheer. The cheer came through. It just took a second, I think. Oh, just not on Twitch. And yeah, he's still, yeah, yeah. He's still, he's doing his, I mean, we're playing some of his work right here.
    62:14
    Oh, no, Jeff. Miserably sick, but feeling better. Definitely should go out soon. Done. Jeff, as soon as you're ready, man, let's set it up, because that would be fun.
    62:23
    Okay, what was going on with FX3? Did they just make us repay for content? May not be seeing this right. Ooh, can anyone help out Blue Hat Wearing Penguin? Uncle Rich, welcome to the stream.
    62:40
    All right, so we're going to go middle. Wow. Misjudged that. And that was ball three. All right Had better What are we listening to now?
    63:05
    Riku, welcome. How goes it tonight? It's going well? Ever long? Yeah, ever long. There we go. I've had better.
    63:27
    There's one. Two. God, that's so fast. Three. There we go. I did not drain it. So we're going to stick with Los Angeles. I want to do this because I want to hit those ramps.
    64:02
    Definitely hitting them. There's one. Wow, I am really missing that ramp by a lot. Try it again. There it is.
    64:32
    Okay, and get up and around. Looking good. Wow, okay, that mode is complete. Sorry, I had to move the machine there. Wow. I didn't want to move it again, though. Good to see everyone crawling out of the woodwork for Jilich's triumphant return. It's like a family reunion, but no one's been arrested yet. I like it. Wait a second. How goes it? Oh. So did... yeah. Okay, Homegrown commenting on the fact that the FX3, they were being asked to basically repay for content, which is BS. That sounds frustrating. And, yeah, thank you, everybody, for coming to hang out. This is... Needed it. I've been missing this.
    65:36
    Let's see here. Finally fixed that broken GameCube. It's modded and working fine. We had a Captain Zanzibar's wedding party on Saturday at the Icebox Arcade. Recube, that's awesome. I've seen some great pictures online about those two. So congratulations to them. I have to send something off the sand.
    65:58
    Really moved the machine on that last one. All right, let's try that again. We're on ball two. Thank you, game. Uh-oh, it gave me two balls.
    66:23
    And immediately drained one of them. Okay. Around. All right, great. Now we're ready to start second mode. Got it. All right, we're going to go New Orleans again, because that worked out really well for us last time.
    66:58
    There it goes. All right, what do I need to hit? That, that, I'm going to let that go. Got ourselves an add-a-ball, which was on the two left targets.
    67:28
    What do we need to hit? Middle for, I think, a super jackpot. We got it. Or maybe we just completed New Orleans. We've got our extra ball over there, which I definitely did not miss. Oh, my God.
    67:54
    All right. So we got our extra ball on a purposeful extra bounce there. That was definitely on purpose. Yeah, we were going to go to Zant, but I couldn't work it out. Looks fun. Whoa, Pin Monk, welcome to the stream. Hi.
    68:10
    Let's see here. 08 table or the new one. They were both turns. No sounds, no nothing. Just drops. Drove me nuts. Wait. Oh, that drop out. Yeah. Yep.
    68:21
    All right, what are we doing here? We're going that to that. There's one. So we've got the V and van. We've got the A.
    68:35
    I need to start the mode first before I start the multiball. Good. Got it. All right, so we've got Roswell and New Orleans done. I'm going to go for, I think it's New York.
    68:57
    All right, so now it's moving. The shot we got to hit. Keep going. It's in the middle. Missed it by that much.
    69:27
    What else do we need to do? I kind of want to hit the multi-ball, but no. Screw it. We're in it to win it.
    69:43
    Got the combo. No, missed it. I'm going to hit it again. How many more? We need two more shots. Hit it again. One more shot.
    70:05
    I don't know. Yeah, I think that was it. All right. So we are on to our first mini wizard mode of the night.
    70:21
    Yeah, I really didn't want to start the multi-fall. That's coming back. There we go. All right, DC or Austin? We're going to do DC.
    70:42
    Is your statement in David Ward, at least? Nice, it's a new arcade that just opened up northeast of Tacoma.
    71:27
    I have no idea what I'm actually doing right now. I feel like maybe I need to hit the middle targets or something.
    71:57
    Oh my god, find the shot! All right, cool, cool, cool, cool. We've got two letters. I need one more in order to finish spelling van. Catching back up. Let's see, going into D speed with the speaker upgrade and then the Lighting 2X makes it a points monster. Okay, I need to check that. I need to... It's been a while. Don't hold it against me. I wasn't really thinking anything beyond just hitting all the pretty balls and keeping things flowing nicely.
    72:45
    So we'll go... Oh, no. I guess right orbit. Well, we are ready to start our fourth mode. Ah, and we get to go to the cool song mode.
    73:21
    Uh, let's do Roswell. Crap, we have that multiball. Ready. I don't know. What do we need to hit? We're getting... We're close. Probably should have waited on that one. I think maybe it's that inner orbit.
    74:19
    What do we got to hit? Oh, I think it wants us to hit this right ramp, maybe. How did I not hit it? Alright, I need to hit the middle And Roswell is done There we go Okay, alright, alright We got four done Four done, we're good All right, so it was bots and spam spinners, bot targets. Spinner is at 40K right now. Okay, there's one, and spinner.
    75:00
    And there's that. Okay, now we're on to Seattle or Chicago. Let's do this, hit the right ramp. I can't believe I missed that.
    75:18
    We're going to go center, spinner. Looks good. Oh, man, that was nice. Wow, it was almost a million.
    75:37
    I'm very frustrated with the fact that I think I did that. Awesome. Riku, thank you. I know, I know, that was definitely ouchy, but we got... We're still on ball two, and that was an extra ball. So let's not ruin things.
    76:01
    There's one. What do I need? I need two more letters. Just going to let that go. Here we go. Chicago. He said that was great.
    76:48
    There it is. We got our multiball. We're good. Man, this is for certain a brick fest right now.
    77:30
    All right, we're good. And I think that's done. Okay, Seattle is done. Now we're just in a fun multiball.
    77:48
    All right, let's hit this right ramp, shall we? Let's try that again. Let's see here. Get that 2x started. I don't really remember how to do that. I know it has something to do with the battery shot,
    78:08
    which I just tried for and missed. That'll work. Let's try that right ramp. Nope. All right, we're going to try the right ramp again. Got it.
    78:45
    That's fine. I'm going to let that time out. We are now ready to complete Chicago. There's that. All right, we need that shot over there in order to complete Van. Got it.
    79:19
    Good. Okay, now we're on to Chicago. Yeah, the right orbit. Got it. Pepperbone, they have over 30 classic arcade games set to free play along with 20 pinball tables. It's $10. You can buy an all-day pass and come and go as you please.
    79:34
    All right, we are very crooked right now. I'm just going to move that over slightly. We're good. Much better aligned.
    79:43
    Hurry up, shot will spread if you take too long. Clear all shots for 2x progress. Is that going to go all the way around? Around?
    79:59
    No idea where... Okay, so that's timing. That did not trigger on the sling at all. I think that he had the...
    80:20
    You really just need... I do. I need somebody who knows this game kind of in my ear. Just... That kind of thing. Oh, no. We have to hit all these shots again.
    80:42
    All right, try the right orbit. Got it. Now we're going to go middle. That is the easy shot.
    81:04
    Wow. I've had better. We've got a bottom ward. I guess I could do that. Evidently, it's not going to give it to me. I have to hit that shot.
    81:30
    All right, Chicago, you and me. Mono e mono. Right ramp. Need this right ramp a lot. Got it. Didn't get it. I think that was ball three. Darn. To be continued. Not an awful game, though.
    82:15
    Not awful. I'll take it. George, secret skill shot. Plunge the ball into the left in lane for 2.5 million and an additional ball save time. Plunge the ball into the left out lane for 5 million and it qualifies overdrive. Okay.
    82:29
    I like this song, Chicago, but I wish they hadn't truncated it so hard. I honestly wasn't even listening to what that song was. I only got into the Foo Fighters by playing this game locally. Uh, 568 is respectable. Okay, I'll take respectable.
    82:46
    Uh, from a code standpoint, maybe if it's the last ball, it shouldn't say to be continued. Joe Hills, good thought.
    82:56
    Uh, that's that. That is how, um, what's the name of it? Um, oh, I don't want to spoil that. All right. We've got one more good game in us, I think, for the night. 5.86 mil. Higher than I've seen anyone hit on this in a tourney on location the last few weeks. So we're at 7.24 degrees right now, and I just actually balanced the play field. I think that made a pretty significant difference. A. Ogden. Coming in.
    83:30
    Not the right thing. My hat's off to you. Thank you. Welcome and thank you for subscribing. For 23 months, we are very close to a two-year-old baby.
    83:42
    Upgrading van can make scoring much higher. And the van is over here on the drop target. All right, I already qualified the multiball up there, which I don't want to use just yet.
    84:23
    All right, what do we need? Oh, we've got, we're ready for our first, our first. Let's do Los Angeles again.
    84:34
    Somebody just did seven raiders from surreal underscore seven just popped in and we just hit level ten. We're at the pretty mode, people. Thank you. Surreal, how was your stream? How was your evening? How was life? I got double maxed out.
    85:00
    We're going to go there. To there again. For some reason, I'm going to be patient and wait for it to come back. Hit there and try.
    85:20
    It's okay. We'll hit it next time. How many more? We've got 27 seconds left. Man, I did not want to start the multiball with one shot left.
    85:47
    All right. So we're going to work on the van, I think, while we're in here. Are we actually doing anything to the van?
    86:27
    I can't tell if we're actually upgrading. Oh, we have our 2X going right now. Um, let's see. Let's go there.
    86:49
    Mamma mia, that's a spicy meatball. What was that? Healy Frenzy, welcome to the stream. Great to be back. Thank you. Oh, no. I'll take that ball save that was very weirdly timed okay we've got a lock there for multiball we just wasted that multiball, that sucks but whatever, we made it through Los Angeles it's nice, we need the ball I like my, QB, I like yours too that graphic looks decidedly Scooby-Doo-ish, Kirk Hobbs, which graphic oh, I think there is a lot of Scooby-Doo references in this game.
    87:45
    Uh-oh, we got something from Riku. Not cool, man. All right, and... Wow, that was... That was not cool. There it is.
    88:17
    Also, I think we're actually kind of aligned. I'm going to flip back just a bit. I think we're okay. And Riku, collecting 10 lightning targets, hits starts a 40-second time super lightning mode. During Super Lightning, the left and right ramps are lit to award 10x the lightning value that was built up through target hits or combos prior. Chasing the monster and being chased by the monster across the screen. Okay. Well, the Foo Fighters did guest star in a Scooby-Doo cartoon. I was unaware.
    88:53
    All right, we are in a mode. There's green for a multiball. All right, what do we need to hit? We're going to go green there.
    89:23
    All right, we're going to go... Oh, no. Got it? Okay. I'm going to hit that and give me a shot. Let's see if it can set myself up for another.
    89:41
    Nope, it does want me to continue hitting those shots, which is fine. We're going to go right orbit again.
    90:01
    you You Got it I definitely hit the extra ball. I'm not sure why it's still lit. Do we have two extra balls lined up? Is that what's going on? So we need to hit this other drop target. Missed it by that much. I was like, oh, it's coming. Hold up the flipper. Shoot, I'm holding up the wrong flipper.
    93:49
    You have to hit the extra ball like you really... Okay, no, no, no. I do have two extra balls. Okay.
    93:55
    They're queued up. I did want it. That was such a bad overdrive fail. Thank you. Thank you. Uh, what have we got? A bot award and extra ball.
    94:22
    We have another extra ball There we go One extra ball completely wasted. To waste an extra ball like that requires such finesse.
    94:46
    There we go. Let's do New Orleans, and let's see if we can grab ourselves this extra ball. Nope. There we go. We got yet another extra ball.
    95:05
    What do I need? Oh, I need this multiball. Cool. Nope, nope, nope. That was frustrating. Okay, spam the spinner. Got it. I need to do much better about looking up to see who's giving me suggestions. Welcome back to the Panic Room. Enjoy the ad-free viewing and olden a month's worth of breath. Oh, sure. We emote. Surreal. Oh, I missed the subscribe on top of the raid. Surreal. Coming in strong. Thank you.
    96:00
    Let's see here. Thank you for the way. I don't know if those are my overlays you're talking about. Yep. I see that. Surreal. Welcome back. You beautiful bastard. Thank you.
    96:11
    Oh, man. Oh, pin monk. enshrining that wonderful, delicious veil. Thank you. Sorry for any secondhand weed smoke you got from that month-long break I just took. All good, all good. Honestly, I need, if anything, even more opportunities for relaxing.
    96:44
    And... Nope. There it is. New Orleans. Let's finish this. I have no idea what that was all about just then. It's fine.
    97:14
    Oh, now I've got to spam the spinner. There it is. All right, so now I've got to hit that shot.
    97:44
    So now I've got to try and spam the spinner. And then I'm going to go there. Was that? That sound definitely seemed Scooby-rific right there. And.
    98:27
    Got it. All right. Mode is done. New Orleans, we're ready to get back to our mini wizard mode. Pin Monk, have a great night. Thank you so much for hanging out.
    98:48
    Thank you. Good luck at the doctor tomorrow, my friend. Enjoy your rest. Yes. Did I? I don't remember what I saw earlier, but it sounded like you had an event, and I hope it goes well. I hope you're recovering well.
    99:04
    Isn't that what New Orleans is all about? I don't know what that was all about, but I certainly had fun.
    99:35
    Okay. I need one more shot, and it's kind of hard to find. There it is. Up and around, combo, Tron! Yes! So we're going to go into DC again, because I'll be in DC in two weeks. Looking forward to that. With you and Manu being out, I felt that I needed to step up. I've done more than 50 hours in the last two weeks. That's awesome. That's surreal. Well, well freaking done. What am I supposed to be hitting right now?
    100:36
    Thank you. Okay. Somebody just did something. We're going to get that ball saved. That's good. you
    103:06
    you Thank you. a favor and chat just to make sure I didn't accidentally ban you right now because I just like I touched the wrong thing still here okay cool this has been your PSA please don't drink and scream well what's the fun of screaming your band no no I'm not touching it because I don't know how to get out of this little screen that OBS has in it, because one of the options is definitely to ban or time you out.
    105:51
    Hiya, Peanut. Welcome to the stream. All right, let's do some Seattle. Uh, right ramp. Got it. Alright, and...
    106:21
    That little... I did not anticipate that, but that was ball three. Yeah, we wasted a lot of extra balls there. And it's 11.48. What do you think? Do we have one? Pinball Princess Jillian, welcome. Higher Peanut, are you roasted again?
    106:41
    What happened with roasting? Fix the refund. I, yeah, that's what started it. I was trying to refund Frisco the points for the 500 extra points. We're at max level right now. which we're, oh, right there. Yeah, that is really tiny. Stream level 10, and we hit, we're at 5,377 stream XP. Pinball Princess Jillian, how the heck are you doing? Toasted and roasted, got it. As long as I'm not the one doing the roasting.
    107:18
    Also, Queen Dark Lady, how close are you to me getting another tattoo? Because I'm ready. I am very ready.
    107:30
    Okay, the refund went through. Whoever refunded, thank you. Okay, Dice. Dice is there. Dice has got you. All right, last game.
    107:45
    Yeah, my hero. My hero is definitely the one we're going with here. And one. Two. Is it just, oh, I can just hit that over and over, huh?
    108:23
    Oh my god. That was crazy. Expo tattoos. We can have Deadflip give them to us. What could possibly go wrong?
    108:39
    Yeah. We have one stream tattoo. Jillian, I got the emote. And now the ball's about to drop. But I feel like I'm ready for the next stream tattoo. All right. There we go. We've calmed it down. There's a backhand. And little premature.
    109:18
    Got it. and up and around, right ramp, I meant right orbit. Try the same thing backhand. Nope. Hey, but that'll count.
    109:49
    Okay. Oh, no. No! We got that last shot ready to go. Deathflip was at the arcade pinball show in Tacoma. Almost got Sabina, but never went to the show.
    110:11
    That was an unexpected plot twist at the end of that sentence there. All right. And three.
    110:43
    Three. Got it. All right. Los Angeles. Let's mist it by that much. There it is. No, no, no. Yeah, we don't want to... No, screw it. Let's do it. We'll start that multi-ball. I can do it.
    111:16
    I think this mode is ready to complete. and we got ourselves the save there. All right, we're cool. We're cool. We're going to backhand and then go for that upper ramp.
    112:11
    Right ramp. Totally got there. Okay. Got it. There we go. Did... Nope. We did complete something, I think.
    112:44
    Is Los Angeles done? Is that our first mode? Yeah, okay. At least Los Angeles is done. I'll take that.
    112:55
    Almost 2 a.m. Razor, have a great night. Thank you so much for being here. And, yeah, it's awesome to be back.
    113:05
    On that note. It would have been easy. Look for the... What? It would have been easy. Look for the one guy that could hunt geese with a rake.
    113:26
    Oh, right. Because he's tall. Got it. I understand that sentence now. There's one. Don't start that multi-ball.
    113:50
    There. Sure, let's do New York. There it is. Two X jackpots. And let's go for the middle. Middle. Oh, and this is the one that moves it.
    114:32
    There's that. Okay, so we completed New York. Ooh, that sucked. Okay. And did we just upgrade the van? Yeah. Okay, so we upgraded one thing of the van there.
    115:30
    We're on ball three, so let's grab the extra ball. I think we have two extra balls now. And there we go. We used the overdrive. It worked out well. I cleared your request queue for you, George. It's been a few months. Thank you.
    115:56
    Let's do Roswell just because that's what it's telling us to do. I don't know. Do that. Let's see what happens. I really don't know what I'm supposed to do this mode. That helps.
    116:24
    There's that. And we got ourselves an extra ball. So we are making some progress on Roswell. Thank you very much.
    116:46
    All right. And one. Two. Three. Four. And. All right, we are ready to get back into Roswell. There's green. Green.
    117:46
    We'll take that. How many more do we need? I don't know. Let's grab one more. Side ramp and... There we go. We completed that mode.
    118:03
    And there's one. Ha, ha, ha. Wow, that really got going fast there. Is that going to go all the way around? Nope, that's coming back. Beautiful. We're going to try for that right orbit. It's been a somewhat notoriously difficult shot, but we found it. And there we go. Now we're on to, let's try Austin. We've done Austin a bunch. Either whisper or have someone reach out to Pepper Bowen. I already have this shirt. What just happened? I can't see it right now. Dice, did you just redeem a shirt. And you're giving it what? Wow, that was a beautiful double drain there.
    119:19
    Oh, no. All right. Calm down, George. What do we have here? What's the goal? I cleared your request. Okay, so you, even though I can't see it right now...
    119:50
    Yeah, because I don't know how to close the weird little pop-up that's there. That's very irritating. I can't see what happened.
    120:01
    Have you updated the table code for May 2nd? A little. Okay, I'll check to see what that is. Out to Pepper Bowen. I already have this shirt. I want them to have it. Okay, so we've got to get in contact with Pepper Bowen and make sure that he redeems the shirt then. Shoot red, get to success, X. Shoot blue, add a ball, repeat with more X. Didn't quite make it. Oh crap.
    121:01
    Oh, somebody just did something. Dice just redeemed random first chap sound. Assign random... I talked over it, I didn't hear it.
    121:20
    Yadda yadda yadda. Dice. Dice, are you just using up all those points right now? Oh, and now I see that it came down a little bit so I can see that dice redeemed. Don't panic, Brick.
    121:44
    What is going on? Are we in all the modes at once? We're in Chicago. Got it. Okay, it did skip the lock to the mode. That was really weird.
    122:15
    There's one. Two, three. And then in. We're back in Chicago. Hit. All right, right ramp. Woo, that was rough.
    122:46
    Eh, not bad. Not awful. for a first night back. If it's weird that that skipped the intro and it went right into the mode, but eh, not going to complain too much. Everyone, thank you so much for hanging out this evening. That was a lot of fun. Dice?
    123:08
    All right, it's going to play it over there. Dice, I will make sure tomorrow to hit up Pepper Bowen and let them know that we got a shirt for them.
    123:18
    Thanks to Dice. Night. D. Kaiser, thank you. Thank you, everyone, so much for hanging out. It was good to be streaming again. It's been a while. It took like a month or so off there. I think it was a month. So, yeah, it's fun to be back and chatting late at night. You guys, have a good one. Let's go find someone to raid. And looking forward to being back online again at some point this week. Remember, I'll be headed out to D.C. for a week, so I've got another week off coming up here in the near future. But that is work-related. That is not personal.
    123:57
    Hopefully we'll be on Mando or Walking Dead tomorrow. And at some point we'll make our way over to the Polycade, and we'll find a way to sneak that in here so we can get some good ape-out time trials in. You guys have a good one. Thanks again.
    124:17
    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 f*** 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 you have evidence of that? It might be a tumor. It's not a tumor. Evidence?
    125:12
    Evidence? Richard, do I have a mark on my face? Right here. Not here or here so much, but right here. That's evidence.
    125:28
    Again, request for more evidence. You can't handle the truth! Do we have evidence of that? Nobody makes me bleed my own blood. Nobody! Evidence? Scott TDI clean diesel, about 814 highway miles per tank. Do we have evidence of that? Evidence?
