hey everybody we are back you can probably hear Eric in the background right now making final announcements so we are gearing up for 140 players to play a Mega Match play oh we're muted not anymore we're not I got us unmuted y set for reason but are you getting excited or what man this is a big one this is a big one all right welcome everybody to Eastgate holiday in here in Cincinnati welcome to the stern pro circuit and welcome to pincinnati yeah this is really exciting this is by far the biggest tournament we've had where this is also our first time on the stern pro circuit and with 140 players holy moly yeah that's a lot this is a lot so we have 41 Arenas meaning games we have 140 players this is going to be a big tournament and today 12 rounds we're not even going to try and get it all done today 12 rounds today and there were still players on the weight list yeah can you believe it he went through the weight list he got 100 players into the weight list and there were still more players beyond that so so let's talk about format we have 12 rounds today of match play qualifying in a 7531 scoring and teered swiss pairing do you want to talk about Swiss pairing and how that [Music] works it's not my my strong suit the different pairing Styles I know you have swiss you have balanced yeah uh Swiss uh correct me if I'm wrong is um a more you would have more even groups yeah exactly so they they similar points would be together and in a tiered Swiss similar groups of points would be together whereas in a proper Swiss it would be literally if you 39 you're with other people who have 39 were the closest thing to it so it does mean that you might end up playing the same people a lot whereas in a balanced pairing you're going to be playing everybody so people who having a really good day are going to play other people who are having a really good day and people who are having a crummy day might be playing other people who are having a crummy day uh our 12 rounds probably will take if I had to guess they the rounds tend to run about 20 to 30 minutes yeah it'll be it'll be a late night because we have the caliber of players that we have here due to the stern pro circuit y uh they the games could go on for an hour some of them they can y it's it's possible they're set up really difficult so that that is that that the likelihood of that is minimized but I mean when you have this caliber of player honestly we've seen forever we've seen it before we've seen 45 minute an hour games especially when we get further along and we start following those groups that are doing really really well and certainly by the time we get to the finals and then if I remember correctly the old the previous format was around 12 rounds total right yeah so we added rounds and players and Arenas this year so and and last year we went till 3 in the morning yeah right holy moly holy moly 3 in the morning on Saturday well there was the the power outage too that got in the way a couple years ago that that kept us up till 3:30 in the morning but this time cross your fingers friends no power outages it's just pinball that keeps us here um so we have a awesome uh night of pinball ahead of us we'll have a bunch of different commentators on here uh stepping in to share their knowledge and wisdom and I know our players are getting stoked cuz I've seen people sort of in that anxious you know it's all we're all getting ready to start phase so I think once we hit that go button it's just going to be a flurry of activity there getting psyched up in the elevator was yeah yep yep we already had a women's tournament earlier today the women's qualifying event uh just happened it went from 1 until 4 and we now have 24 women moving on to the finals which will take place tomorrow morning starting at 10:00 a.m. that's an amazing race format and The Amazing Race if you if you guys haven't seen it super fun pinball format where you're fighting to not get last on every machine every machine somebody gets last they're out you move on to the next so it's kind of a high pressure format I want to try and get a picture real quick all right Eric's taking a picture of our crew and uh then we'll start our rounds and you'll get a list of everybody who's playing everybody I'm going to put this cam on you're going to need a panorama camera for this picture I know there's so many people here how do you even shoot this how do you even shoot this you got the panoramic feature on the thone but I think like to you need an actual panoramic camera for this is crazy I do yeah I wish I could show you all just how many people are here well 140 of them but to try and understand how many that is well I mean you can kind of see in the player Cam that that's a lot of people yep yep there's a staright it's a very rare you also they're coming at just the right time because there was glare earlier today if you were watching earlier today there was glare from the overhead uh sunlights that's pretty much gone so we should have a clear view of every game and the game cam has been looking awesome today the games have been playing awesome fingers crossed uh that you'll get some really fantastic pinball to watch thank you uh from fellowship of silverball country glad to have you from South Carolina yeah so and it won't advance to the next player until you've played through that extra time mod please play that mod care if you don't know your and [Music] ask you earn a little bit extra time immediately after your third ball so predictions chat what do we got oh weit are we going to do predictions I love that yeah put them in there I mean we have some pretty killer players let let's do this while they're taking a picture maybe we could take a look at

    14:27
    too who's ready to learn the greatest game of all time I I am big game let's go please note this game is on updated code okay to plunge you're going to get one of three lanes b i or G that will work you towards spelling big game on the left here you can spell you can achieve game by getting G and a on the side targets M and E from the in lanes that will increase the value of this saucer up top which you collect by shooting the left spinner you can spell big game up to twice for up to 70,000 points collected at that upper saucer next you'll notice you have Bingo cards in the middle of the Playfield these Bingo cards are lit on a timed interval or hitting various targets around the Playfield slings rollover pop bumper top Lanes will also change the cards whichever card is lit if you hit down drop targets it will light corresponding numbers on those cards the one through three drop targets are here four five and six are here and seven eight and nine are here so you want to wait for two cards to be lit hit drop targets down get double your money and that will increase your end of ball bonus also if the X card is lit the left spinner will also be lit for 2,000 a spin that is a massive rippable shot for up to 100,000 points on a good rip also the right spinner right here will light if you spell Big G up top that will light for the rest of the game for a thousand of spin you usually can backhand this spinner from this flipper here for good rippable points also 2X and 3X bonus are achieved by simply filling up Bingo cards once you fill them up enough for 2x it will light once you fill them up enough for 3x it will light also if you have spelled big game and you have 3x bonus you will receive a 5x bonus most strategies involve trapping the ball here waiting for the left spinner to light let the ball roll down to the bottom flipper for maximum power and rip through the spinner collect up at the saucer you'll get around 100,000 for 50 spins through that spinner and collect at the saucer that's big game oh [ __ ] what did I do that's all right big goe all right all right everybody sorry for cutting that that motorial short there but just want to say real quick thanks so much everybody for coming our first year on the stern pro circuit hopefully everything goes smooth uh but thanks for everybody for tuning in I'm sure we got lots of people watching already so uh thanks so much again for uh hanging out with us thanks ni for helping yeah thank you for putting this on this is incredible it's an incredible show every year and just the sheer amount of players that are here it just goes to show the hard work that you put into this it's it's paying off yeah no it's um it's I I I do it because I love it so again thanks so much to everybody that's supporting the the tournament and all that kind of good stuff so we will uh yeah we'll get started here and thanks so much everybody Evans big gaming and this has updated code yes yes so um again I cut the menorial off short but essentially the cards are on a timer now instead of they'll still move with switches but um you can see here the cards might be lit and they're on a timer so if you want to trap up on the right here and then wait for the X card to be lit which lights this spinner you can do that so and the rest of the game is pretty much the same you can also get 5x bonus instead of a Max of three from before so to get that you want to fill up your your cards enough to get the 3x bonus and then you want to complete this Candy Cane Lane light up all those letters by hitting the various targets around the Playfield and then you can get to 5x bonus which gets pretty juicy and the bonus saves ball to ball so if you have a really big first ball you're kind of really putting your opponents behind the eightball and they got to they got to catch up to you so it's it's pretty big so the players have quite a few options in terms strategies I think a lot of players still go for this left spinner all day strategy because it's just most comfortable to them but you can get burn on it if you're not hitting it enough and and other people are building up a little base of bonus to using these drops to um kind of start off hot and then and then keep those bonus points coming those guaranteed bonus points that could be the difference
    18:48
    so yeah well I mean you'll see it can be boring while you sit and wait for someone to get the card They want lit but you'll see pretty quick watching this that you don't get to too many traps he almost lost one right there trying to Trav it but uh but yeah thanks again everybody for watching hope you enjoy it and uh we'll get to
    19:16
    it that was our Intrepid tournament director the guy who started all this Chuck W Eric wurger did you ever ask him why he's called Chuck no I guess it was a high school nickname that just kind of stuck he said he wrote it down as a joke like on one of those uh when you first start a class and the teacher asked you to write your name down and it just stuck from there on out he was like I was being a jerk and it's held for how many years so we're underway and you're watching Nolan play now it was nice to have Eric sort of go through the rules of this game to me like it's all about filling up those cards and getting that spinner when it's lit especially when this big game doesn't quite exactly play like some people are used to playing it with different yeah he's got that new code on there good spinner rip while lit very nice for
    20:09
    Nolan and we're so lucky we have players that came in from all over the country for this so if you are cheering somebody on from your neck of the woods give them a shout out in the chat let us know where are you from and who are you cheering for we got a player from New Zealand here that's so cool he was playing in uh the strikeout last night that's Arcade Legacy who was it who's the player do you know uh it looks like kiwi frenzy it's um could be could be from New Zealand um oh jeez I'm I'm blanking out on his first name okay his last name's R okay we'll keep an eye out for him very cool I'm excited to have our Memphis friends up here cuz I get to watch them on stream all the time but uh like to get to actually hang out with ypp and Scott very
    20:59
    cool I saw I should get my uh my match play up my phone too oh yeah follow follow along that way ypp is here let's go Frisco pinball oh yeah I saw how he was on the list very cool oh noan good save I'll tell you what for a young guy he is playing some really fabulous
    21:24
    pinball Mark row Mark row okay awesome and an ifp it's Mark row New Zealand to distinguish from the other one apparently yeah he uh came he's playing out of California so he came from California which is not quite the flight as New Zealand but that's still a flight that's a pretty yeah if you're going to come from somewhere in the US that's about as far away as you can get from the continental US so we're seeing those cards start to fill up a couple of big rips with a lit spinner nice use of a dead flip there with a little bit of extra energy to carry it over the Gap nice to see Nolan's getting a lot better at Classics play Nolan is uh very much a a modern Stern specialist has a lot of modern Sterns plays a lot of modern Sterns really well mhm um what was that the um at the amazing pinball race he uh get it re had a really close bout and uh gave uh it was in I think what was it I I'm not sure if it was the uh the strike tournament or if it was the actual main event but he took uh Los to the wire on uh John Wick oh is that right that was something else to see very cool yep yep thank you I love the sounds on this machine Eric was just asking we can hear it you bet you we can so he he was taking L right down to the to the wire you said on Wick Wick wow man that's a good trick that was a tough group y Jason Kelly fairly quick up and down there so after ball one you can see Nolan way ahead with a really great performance on big game playing all the basics building up that bonus and those numbers are going to carry over from ball to ball so that's not only a good ball one that's a good ball two and three already Evan Bingham runs the uh The Amazing Race tournament he holds that one uh in partnership with Deborah and with Trent up there in Columbus every year if if you haven't already that that one's been published I think on Facebook so they've announced it already the dates and all that so worth watching for I certainly will be there hopefully doing this very thing and uh hopefully you'll be there Ipsy will be there yep I saw Tyrus is here is there anybody else from the Ipsy crew here Tyrus is here and Chris is they should both be is Chris here too yep awesome I haven't seen him yet
    24:01
    but Evan has done a a great job making the Amazing Race format more public and and just turned it into a really big deal and of course it's an official ifpa format now so you can you can use it get your real Whopper points that's going to be a tilt and unfortunately on a big bonus game like that that's going to hurt that's going to hurt a lot I I mean he knew he was given that a good shove right and I think the second he did it he looked like uh I'm out mhm I think he knew that that was going to be a little too much but it is Mega match play format it is round one you can bounce back you can bounce back easy you've got till 1: in the morning is right and that's just the first 12 rounds we got eight more tomorrow yep I do like that this year that we're spreading it out a little bit that's really nice in previous years we would do 12 rounds and then immediately take a break go to finals and it was just the longest day ever so I am glad for that yeah and with with a mega match play format it can get grueling especially if it's a full day event start start at 10: a.m. and you'll go to 1 yep and this breaking I mean this is going to be till 1: in the morning anyhow it's just 12 rounds but breaking it up it it really gives the players uh some Breathing Room a break yeah to uh well not really today but more so tomorrow yeah tomorrow would be more helpful because it is consecutive 12 rounds with no breaks yep um but I mean to get all 20 in in one day that's that's a long day a lot of pinball I mean at that point it's this is an endurance hobby right at some level that level of focus with that kind of adrenaline for that long it becomes an endurance game so it's nice that we do get a little bit of a break there is no break today we're doing all 12 rounds just back to back to back oh Ian in the chat from Michigan cheering for the folks we were just talking about Chris and Tyrus Eagle awesome and of course kiwi says I'm going for Mark row New Zealand go mark so I took a maybe an accurate guess that kiwi might be from New Zealand uh Babble says Bob Ellis Dayton Ohio rooting for Jason Kelly well boy are you watching the right match right now you may have to send some better Vibes he started out a little bit rough on ball one and of course another cheer for yap yap and Scott up here from
    26:25
    Memphis all right good good catch and and shoots for uh for Nolan here in a in a game that's difficult to do that I think he was working hard to get it to that upper flipper so that he could he could uh time up his spinner shot maybe I don't know that was nice that was a well Ed flip to uh avoid yeah getting that uh left out lane good trap on the left he's going to go for that spinner he's been really consistently backhanding that spinner from the left unfortunately it's not lit but really good ball control yep Nolan has been working hard on fundamentals that's a nice dig can't do anything about that but yeah that's rough he could not slow that's a good lead right now going into about to be ball three the last ball that's yeah I mean you can never have a in in this type of a tournament with this caliber of a player you can never really have a comfortable there's no such thing as safe that's right but I would be feeling more comfortable than than not in this position with with 275,000 moving into the the next ball Bob Ellis let's see if your cheering paid off for Jason Kelly Jason his beard gets more epic every year and 2024 is no exception Patrick from Richmond cheering for Jason Gwyn hopefully we'll get to see Jason Gwyn
    27:56
    soon this game can be this can be a game of chaos and still pay off because there drop targets all over the Playfield we were talking about this cuz the women uh final or the women qualifiers just had a a showdown between Chelsea paloy and Laura suac on this game and Laura was playing just she was not playing catch and shoot she was playing high energy aggressive everywhere and on this game that can work because there's drop targets all over the place and so you can just sweep them you can just kind of go nuts and hit them but you do have to have really good save and Recovery skills to do that yes cuz if you lose control you you're in a world to hurt yeah I mean it's yeah you you have to just keep momentum but yeah you can't go completely out of control in this game it will which is why noan has this lead it's really it really comes down to ball control cuz if you can keep control the ball which I mean that's any pinball game but I mean for this particularly if you if you if you're able to get control you can make I I'd say more precise shots like how no one was backhanding the the spinner there like automatic I've known some some on the-fly players some really great on the-fly players I don't know how they do it I have to trap up and take my shots pretty intentionally and Evan showing showing some great ball control skills right there right there with a lit spinner and he's going to cash in all letters but one he doesn't have that a
    29:25
    yet got a cheer for Deborah tomman yep she's a great ypin supporter very cool I Love YG oh get it how about that how about that one you guys want to see that one again watch this replay death life that feels good and and just and keeps going with the flow doesn't you know trap up or nothing just no he just kept running he looks totally unbothered by the whole thing he just mhm keep pressing on the consumate professional that Evan Bingham is yep Ray is here I haven't seen Bowen yet but he's here somewhere deapo I assume is here he was here this week Travis Murray's right here Travis Murray yeah watching the stream y yeah we we've got some some Heavy Hitters Jane's down from Chicago Jane's an absolute killer I have't down to final four last night

    yeah oh he's got 100,000 lit on the left out lane see that Blinky thing that's the special it's 100,000 points at this point just shoot for the left out lane Evan oh no I saw what he was trying to do I think he was trying to dead flip that and and something something killed the momentum on the ball I think do you see he was trying to nudge it I think he was trying to dead flip that
    30:53
    one all right grant starting strong that's can't can't say I'm surprised about that great player number one in uh uh South Carolina is that right y
    31:07
    wow so here's Michael trombetta he had a really rough ball one and two this is a chance to make good on it but he going to really have to climb out to get ahead of both Nolan and Evan Evan just what a showing on ball three for Evan
    31:26
    Bingham yeah never trust the dead bounce on Classics that's the thing is if if your flipper has any give to it at all that that dead bounds can just become dead Y no bouns just
    31:39
    dead great performance from Evan it it was a clutch thing right he comes down he's he's really struggling them ball three he's well behind Nolan and then to to put up that kind of score as a clutch player there's our 100,000 Point blinking in the left out lane again yep you never shoot for an out lane but boy it's tempting in it uh I you know ball three right now got to get more points on the board yeah it's not going to work for him yeah he's going to need more points first now if um if Nolan gets some good flips in there and then gets that going it might be uh tempting to do he tries to backhand that spinner ends up accidentally getting the spinner anyway but uh off a
    32:18
    Ricochet but if it's got to drain it's got to go out the left out lane yep that's where you want it oh wow Save wow right off there that was almost death so this this right here this little spot right here is instant death most of the time on this game and he did a great job handling
    32:39
    that lucky enough to just get onto the tip of the right flipper yep he still needs two letters on big game he still needs the m and the E both of which are in lanes and quite
    32:55
    getable okay now outlan it that's right now you can outlan it
    33:02
    100,000 I mean really 100,000 is so many points on on this game that like you really hope it goes left out lane this has been a heck of a rally o I thought we were going right out lane
    33:16
    there I love this Evan threw down the gauntlet said I will not be satisfied with two bad balls in a row has a great ball three Michael says great I see you and I am going to try and set a new standard I think right now he's got on bonus alone yeah he then pulls into the Le I love when that happens building the lead even more can imagine that left out lane now 600 oh my gosh Go Get It Go Get It ooh almost takes the right out lane though he gets a great rip on a lit spinner there there's another one fantastic shot from the upper left flipper and death there but he wow what a comeback what a comeback and watch that bonus
    34:05
    go ooh this is such a big bonus game love to watch it climb like that not quite 7 7911 oh my gosh all right Nolan now Nolan knows this game Nolan has been playing this game great but he's up against two killer rallies back to back yep can he return that volley I I sure hope so
    34:29
    I got to see Christa Liam play earlier today I assume I don't know if Christa is in the tournament now yeah I believe so is is she as
    34:41
    well uhoh that's man that was one where it just barely didn't barely miss that flipper it's possible if he'd have flipped left then right it might have worked but who knows so in a strange turn of events Nolan ends up in at least third place but Jason can come along as a big spoiler here and do everything from put Nolan into fourth to put everybody behind him and take First
    35:12
    Place position matters mhm it really does that anchor position number four most people choose it because you have an opportunity to see what they're going to do and then rise to the challenge so now it's Jason Kelly's turn to do just that he's stepping up to the machine
    35:47
    right is that a post pass that was cool Coast to Coast that was cool that was that was neat Coast to Coast post to post I like it from an upper flippers clears his drop Target Bank building up that card
    36:02
    I completely agree Mr nerb tastic this is one of the best classic Sterns although they had such a good run everything from meteor to Stars again great save really cool that's all right let's see it again that really was a cool save you can see right off the bottom of that uh bumper and manages to get it back under
    36:24
    control and a volley of spinner rips back to back I have a button for that next time somebody gets a killer spinner rip you can hit this
    36:47
    one whoa that was a flipper hop oh no he was having a great ball watch this flipper hop just so much energy on the ball what was that Magic what was that Magic it phased through did it just passed through it incredible and does not pass Nolan you know what he was on a tear and I that's just heartbreaking because it there's nothing you can do to prevent that it just happens and it sucks so that'll wrap it for our first game first round and it was a darn good one if this is how our Pinball's going to look all night I'll be pretty excited that was that was pretty exciting so that's round one in the books we're going to see if anybody else is is still playing let's take a look at our matchups and see if we want to move somewhere I'll take a queue from Chuck here it looks like we still have four games going Judge Dread and Walking Dead yeah and a heads up we Judge Dread is in the annex we can't get we can't go to the annex games just so you guys know it's just a little too far for our uh our wireless technology to work it's in the other side of the building yep so Chuck is looking to see so we've got three three available games okay they're all too close to the end he says so we're going to hang out where we
    38:07
    are okay fall three for it's only going to be a couple minutes this does give us a good opportunity though to talk about um how this kind of thing happens and the way it happens is with sponsors so a real quick word of thanks to our
    38:25
    sponsors all right shouts out to Arcade Legacy pinball monk tiled music Comet pinball mad pinball pin Stadium Stadium lights uh speaker light kits.com and Stern Pinball yep thank you so much to everybody and I you know I'll brag I have bought from I think nearly every single one of these uh for every single one of these vendors Arcade Legacy is my home arcade it's my home away from home and they have just put so much into this and tilt amusements is a perennial sponsor of this Tire show and tilt has an amazing uh setup inside I don't know have you been into the exhibition Hall yet H excuse me I got in there for just uh maybe like five minutes just to uh find uh actually I was looking for you guys cuz oh really yeah cuz uh when um when 4:00 came around or 4:30 came around it was just opening of the floodgates and I was uh here at the broadcast booth and everyone like you're the sign up guy no I can't sign you sign up guy I've had to tell people many times I'm neither here to sign you up nor make a TD ruling nor unstick your ball I'm just a commentator guy but there are so many machines in there and uh tilt amusements brought a huge line of brand new machines in this really cool setup and they even have their own leaderboard just for this just for this booth to find so if you want to come and take on some of the best players in the country and sometimes uh perhaps in the world uh they're playing those too you can come put your name up against theirs it's an all weekend show there's 100 pinball machines in there from every era we have machines back to the 30s which I guess you can't call it a machine it's more a table at that point there's B ofel yeah there's Batel back there uh all the way through to games that are either Homebrew there's literally one in the entire universe games that haven't come out yet there's uh looks like there was a pin I when I was walking through there was a a pin that was made by uh the University Oh by UC yeah so the the there's a UC Professor who brings his homemade pin here and also teaches pinball as part of his curriculum which I think is so cool the engineering of pinball we have um I love The Homebrew machines we also have a bunch of collector's machines so machines that are rare that you'll probably never play anywhere else um that you can play in there there's a Varon in there if you've ever played one of those uh you probably haven't there's a I brought my rotation 8 again this year it's the only rotating pinball machine that ever got really widely produced uh it's a little cocktail you sit down and it rotates between all four players so come play stuff you've never played anywhere else it's cheap to get in and you can buy a whole weekend pass you can stay all weekend I'd say it's worth driving is a staright in the other room yeah we have a we've had a Starlight most years did did you see did Phoebe and Larry bring theirs uh in the main room I don't I don't know if it was the main room I know it's in the tournament but oh is there a Starlight yeah in the tournament mhm is it in the annex yeah it's in the annex oh cool apparently there's a star light here I I haven't been in the annex yet well uh Eric made an announcement on how it plays okay uh so I love that game that's got to be Phoebe and Larry's I mean there's just not that many of them out there theirs are gorgeous got a dragon fist out here yeah that's always fun I've never seen a dragon fist in my life until this moment but yeah dragon fist is in the tney there was one in the kin Classics uh turny really yep very cool it's I bet this is the same machine cuz they not the same machine no it's completely different machine you're kidding different owner yeah wow they were talking about it as if it was the this one came in from uh Jeff Wester Camp I didn't know Jeff had one cool I didn't know either one at uh Ken with Steven brues that He restored okay very cool but uh yeah yeah we're lucky enough in Cincinnati to have like a really amazing pinball community and we have people bring in Mach from you know from their homes and their basements and there's a lot of collectors around here so it is after all as I like to say the birthplace of pinball so I'm proud that we have such a great Community here um I am curious if anybody wants to do a little research how many rotation eights are left in the world I just curious to see if it's anywhere on the internet you you have to let me know I know it's not a lot if there's a ninja Eclipse here it might be through mad pinball oh cool I don't know if that if if there is one I know that they they've had um uh one and L from Turner every now and then so I they they might have it I'm not sure but if there is one you probably find it over at mad pinball for Ninja Eclipse yeah there's so many pinball machines here that like I have two in there and I still haven't seen all the pinball machines you know what I mean that's how many are here there's so many cool machines so I hope if you're if you're within five states just get hop in the car now you'll be here by morning yeah this is you you can see this space and this space has a ton of pin just triple that yep yeah one thing that's also unique about this show is we're lucky enough to get the whole Atrium to do the tournament so you're not just like a corner of a room or locked in a side room somewhere like we have this entire Hotel takeover we have the entire Atrium there's fountains it's really nice well somebody's making their ball three or ball four or player four is making their ball three really count yeah they sure are I'd love to know who it is so I can tell them to just walk away uh looks like if that's so we're iess Iron Maiden is it Maiden we're still waiting
    44:10
    on Judge Dread and the annex oh we're waiting on the annex okay I was looking around trying to find out but that explains it that's a that's a group though we should decide where we want to go next chat if you guys have any input anything in the main room you want to see let me know because the world is our oyster the only game I won't do is big game because we just go through just did it the lineup we got Grand Prix Bad Girls Game of Thrones Road Show solar ride Sharky shootout uh what's next to Sharkies can't see it's a classic is that Argy yeah that's Argy arasy yeah cheetah we have Pulp Fiction Mandalorian Stars fist y getaway [Music] Stars uh is that which which old got Le is that I'm looking Diamond lady I wonder if that's that's got to be Diamond lady he brings it everywhere he goes yeah Doctor Who jackbot that's a that's always fun love jackpot we got Atlantis Iron Maiden World Cup soccer uh what are the what are the two that are right next to it right here uh oh hold on that's far out at the very end let me see what this one is yeah oh yeah far out at the end cool em alien star okay alien star yeah I think if Twilight zones in here uh in this tournament it's in the annex right yeah we don't have Twilight Zone out on the main floor for sure um and I will I can post a link again to to the to the tournament so you can see the Arenas the players I'm just going to pin a link up so that you can look at it anytime you
    46:11
    like oh oh Jared August is blowing up Judge Dread that's the problem they're on ball three and we will be for the next 75 minutes or so possibly it could be this could be a while a decade so in the meantime you can enjoy enjoy just somebody playing big game just for funsies so um let me see what people are asking for Twilight Zone we can't do uh Diamond lady yeah that's that's a fun one maybe we could go there next you know you want to see Game of Thrones or Mando I mean it's the the best 85 minutes that you can spend watching a pinball game is Game of Thrones or Mando when Los gets on Game of Thrones I remember he had a game it was Los against Trent augenstein for like a playoff game or something right three ball game this was in the nky open and the the damn match went on for an hour it was like forever yeah I think what was it the at C and the score the game on the classics tournament the game on Scorpion went about almost two hours oh my God that's so long the uh they had this start the the uh uh finals for for the main that's nuts and uh the players in class it'ss had to go back and forth that's nuts just cuz scorpion was going so long oh my gosh a two-hour game I do like the rule that there is a certain level of runaway that you're allowed to tap somebody out on and just be like you can move on some people hate that rule I've seen very angry comments when I've been in tournaments where they've done it oh there were there were angry comments yeah but when you've got a when you've got a massive runaway on ball three I'm pretty okay with it so that we don't have two hour
    48:03
    games uh this is not a comp ball great question no we are actually waiting on a game from the annex to finish so we can't watch it because it's in another room so that's uh everybody right now is just practicing playing yeah they're just playing around got Matt Owen yep trying to make a run for states does he have a shot at it I I was going to say I haven't looked at his points recently this whole year he's been right there on the on the line let's take a look at our Ohio State standings I would love to know yeah Matt is also a great commentator just super good dude uh so if he gets a chance to sit down I will happily vacate my seat so that you can uh talk with him comes to us from the Northern Ohio area Cleveland area got a bunch of clevelanders down here and earlier um uh we were talking about super electric and apparently super electric is one of the most uh they have some of the most routed machines in the world in terms of number of plays that a machine gets in a given month yeah I can see that CU they've got that free play format take my and Valencia Kelly I guess is a tech up there so her ability to keep those machines running is pretty darn impressive y if they're that uh that well used oh there it is there's your super electric yeah I love that place if you're from the Cleveland area you know super electric do you want to talk about your stream by the way oh yeah the Cleveland area conversation well I'll I'll plug what we've got going uh next state championships oh when's that coming up that's coming up uh in January y I think it's uh the third week of January I believe I was hoping to be there I was hoping to join you and then I'm going to be out of the country unfortunately but but you'll be having fun I will be having fun but uh but yeah it's a bummer to to miss those we hosted those last year here in Cincinnati now yall are hosting those up north yep at um there'll be oh sorry um pastimes arcade that'll be at pastimes in Gerard Ohio Gerard pastimes if for those not familiar with Gerard somebody asked me to draw a picture of Heaven what I think heaven will look like if I'm the only one who gets to decide what heaven looks like it would just be pastimes arcade it's one of the largest pinball museums in the world you can play all the games pretty much except for the ones pre 192 I think yeah like pre-World War I or maybe even basically World War I era games you can't play but everything after is playable that's amazing they have they have the second ever arcade machine that was ever made oh really yeah it's computer space it was the second one off the line are you serious that's that's amazing that was the first arcade game released and that was the second one wow they have the second one off the line there and it's functional and you can play it they also have not like it's behind glass or something you can actually just go up to the machine and play it they work on it every day make sure it's operational if I remember right they have it's either a replica no they have like the original montue red grave pinball machine it might be a replica of it but I I remember seeing one yeah from the from the 1872 original design and I was like how how did you how does anybody get this maybe it's a replica I don't know they also have a log cabin which is like super early production pinball it might have been the first widely produced pinball machine they have a great selection of foreign games that are basically one-offs yep I think they may have a BAL who anyway get pin slake pin yeah just made by it was made by slake pin oh okay it's from Spain it was just a one-off game love it yeah they have a whole row of weird games from Europe that nobody has ever seen before uh you guys need to get up there pretty much most of the Zachariah almost all of the Zachariah games all in a row yep tons of them oh what's that Zachariah one is it farala that has all the butterflies all over it I love that one all right next round is up where are we going where are we going you want it at you want to be on Atlantis love it uh let me if Eric's not already moving it yeah oh he's I think he's still in the anex okay yeah do you want to move over to Atlantis all right friends we're going to watch some Atlantis and I am so excited because I love love love this game and our our fathom Vibe goes really well with Atlanta so
    52:52
    y I've always wanted to go on a deep sea adventure with a bunch of sharks and clams let's learn some Atlantis p Ball please note this game is on tournament ROM which disables the left orbit spotting lock the top saucer will continue to spot Target the Max jackpot is 1 million points extra balls are off but worth 500k all right when you plunge up top you can hit the A or B Lane that will increase the value of this saucer here when you hit this saucer you collect the value hits it up and this wire form goes down to the right in Lane when you roll through the right in lanane it will light the left orbit which normally would spot locks but on tournament code this is turned off to light locks you have to hit the banks of standup Target there's one two and three Targets on these once you hit all the ones it moves to the twos once you hit all the twos moves to the threes once you hit all the threes all three locks will be lit then you can lock all three balls on the left ramp you can do one lock at a time or stack all three locks you can also spot numbers by hitting this saucer kickout here this will also work you towards your bonus multipliers if you go through the left in Lane it'll light the spinner here for big points lastly the drop Targets in the middle of the Playfield completing these will give you various Awards once you hit one down is on a timer and you have to complete the bank to get the award once you complete this Bank five times it will lighten a million shot right here at the saucer once you are in multiball it spits all three balls out onto the Playfield then you want to hit this shot right here for the jackpot shot for a million points that's Atlantis that is Atlantis I love this game I love the theme I love the vibe I love the little sharks with inserts in their mouths it gives like really fun little animations across the uh Alpha numerics which I think is cool so I did my quick research um Matt is about three positions out right now of uh state finals oh okay so okay well we're about to see him do his thing here on this one let me get let me get our names
    54:50
    changed it seems like it would be a quick Tod do but there are so many games I have to look at before I can find the one I want there you go all right Matt Owen our number one our leadoff player on Atlantis juggling electron says I own it it's my first machine great choice man great
    55:32
    yeah you don't see this streamed uh per tournaments too often that puts up 41,000 so not a great start not unbelievable maybe Greg can do a little better drive that value up on the saucer if you complete both sides and then uh pick it up look at that we got back to back Jason Kelly game look at this some combos baby yeah we get some more Jason
    56:05
    Kelly oh Center drain so this is the one downside with with that shot is that it does potentially put you in serious Center drain Hazard it's really cool to be able to spot shots from there if you can catch that vuk but if you blow by this and get that center lane o that's rough so pleased to have you guys with us I can't tell you what a privilege and an honor it is to get to do this every year uh it's literally my favorite weekend of the whole year is getting to do this with you guys so thank you for tuning
    56:47
    pincinnati o nice yeah great job getting a little bit more energy on the ball to clear the Gap and then making a good trap on great spinner RIP by Jason yep
    57:00
    elk Gro thanks for letting us know about that yeah let me know if you guys are consistently seeing Focus issues I don't think it's the camera but it could be the Wi-Fi if if everybody is seeing it cuz from here the camera looks amazing but we're on this side of it there's no Wi-fi gap for us so you have to let me know if it's happening oh my gosh look at that Center drain is it pretty low yeah it's dipping okay it's it's the internet it looks like the internet but it's it's gradual dips so it's not or there's
    57:35
    um super consist it's not it's not consistent uh consistently dropping it's it's just little it's coming in spikes yep which is I mean that's Hotel internet for you that's just how it works boots were're super happy to stream for you yeah it's been constantly changing since women's okay good to know good to know we don't have a hardwire opportunity unfortunately in this room so we have to go with that's going to be a tilt or just a warning that was a just a warning warning [Applause] okay so we don't have an opportunity to get a hard wire but we can uh do our best with
    58:15
    Wi-Fi all right that's good to know y'all hopefully the pinball is still pretty watchable if it really does ruin the stream let me know and we'll we'll see if there's anything else we can do about it uh maybe get a several hundred foot hardwire I don't
    58:40
    top again that top that saucer can be worth quite a lot if you drive the value way up you can get you can get a lot of that saucer and it's a pretty safe shot up
    58:52
    there let me ask about that turny ROM question it may not be on turny ROM I know that we do have the ramp you can't spot uh multiball shots on the ramp but I don't know if it's a full turny set of rules or not Eric would know yeah I'm not familiar with
    59:26
    thanks o again rough feet down the mle m not much you can do solid points there the rumor is Eric said he believes that it's set to only give you a certain amount every time that it's not the whole big Progressive jackpot but um we'll have to take a look we are getting some Focus issues from the camera on the score by the way but it it finds its way back into Focus oh he tried to get the tip over to the right side just didn't quite have enough on it and another Center
    60:02
    drain we'll parse out some pinball terminology for you he said nice slap save do you want to tell everybody what a slap save is oh it's when you
    60:15
    uh is it not when you give it a nice little slap to push it out of the way that's exactly it possibly can yeah that's exactly it yeah slap saves are cool because they are a way to move the table under the ball so if the ball looks like it's going to go dead center for instance or it's going to go maybe just a little off center you can slap while you're flipping and it moves the table just enough that the flipper might touch it that's a lot more technical than uh I'm used to no but it's exactly it I mean you're just slapping it just slap it as hard as you can and it's a little different without the intention of tilting yeah you got to keep that in mind but there are some nudges where you are trying to kind of influence the path of the ball this is one where you're trying to influence the table under the ball you're right oh look at that look at that what a bummer he gets himself trapped with a just an unfortunate flip there and it hangs up what a
    61:17
    bummer what is the hardest surface to slide save on carpet with no uh with no sliders perhaps
    61:33
    save I don't think you're slide saving anything here not at this tournament the tilts are way too tight maybe on the uh dragon what's it called dragon fist the new one dragon fist he he did make the tilt a lot more accessible on that one so maybe on that
    61:56
    one rubber feet on carpet yeah that's that's tough all right so all right the jackpot it says is at 520 not sure if it's going to award that or not again Eric suggested it might be set to a a set jackpot but we we'll see lot of
    62:26
    work good combo again end of the saucer nice that that left in Lane lights the spinner so if you can do what he just did and rip it right off the Left End Lane you get a bunch of points watch maybe try for it
    62:45
    again love the sounds on this one good utilization of the post
    63:00
    so right there when what what you saw Matt doing was he was kind of hitting the side of the or the front of the cabinet a little bit he's trying to create just a little bit extra momentum to make sure that he gets that dead bounce across the Gap he wants just a little bit or sometimes you do it depending on the timing you do it to actually take momentum off the ball mhm it just totally depends yeah and a really great player can time such that they're either adding momentum or taking momentum off like that that good that sling in that instance it was uh uh removing momentum but I did not catch what he said I didn't catch what he said
    63:42
    either all right this is ball three for Greg he is behind by a little bit on Stewart so he's starting out in fourth but uh it's not much of a climb to get where Stuart pomoy is it is more of a climb to get where M and just got so that is probably going to be a fourth place by the time he's done no real bonus done at
    64:09
    314 all right Jason wants Redemption from that last game I love the artwork on this I know somebody was saying earlier they didn't like the art I love the art on this I think it's super fun mostly the
    64:38
    Sharks goes for a shot on that left ramp unable to get it and cannot save it that's going to be a tilt warning and not enough bonus to get into first place hey Pat good to see in the chat man I wish you were
    64:57
    here another fantastic streamer his presence in the booth is missed well we just saw Jason take a good run at it but could not uh catch up to Matt Owen but not a last place but not last that honor is likely to go to Greg duffner I can't imagine Stuart would have to plunge and instantly
    65:24
    tilt for instance he he got it right there so now he's going to first play catch up to Jason at 464 and ultimately trying to go for Matt at 576 feeling it right now some good
    65:41
    shots yeah I think uh I think he's going to catch up you think he's got it yeah yeah uh-oh that was nice though good I think that might be the the play of the game right there yep that that was a save ah let's see where does he end up his bonus is not much 539 is not enough to pull ahead so he's going to take second place Stuart pomoy for Five Points yep that puts Stuart at six points Matt at a total of 10 uh Jason is going to end up with four and Greg is also going to end up with four at the end of round two let's look around and see what else is playing and see what else we can move to
    66:47
    right I'm getting this on my phone so I can follow along our matches we've got Road Show Sharky shootout Diamond l Grand Prix World Cup soccer Argy there's a lot of games still going on five ball Stars jackpot hot
    67:11
    tip Mandalorian there's there are options on the table here alien
    67:29
    Grant Sabrina Tyler and Charlie get that changed up all right we're on Maiden wow that's loud and we're going into player two ball three so we had a little bit of time left to play on Maiden these are not in alphabetical order no they are not they are in completely
    68:01
    one of these has got to be it here I'll look with you and whoever gets it first wins I wish you guys could see what we can see but we're working with tiny texts to try and find this game in our list oh wow the one all right Sabrina oh we we turned our head and it was up and down for Sabrina so she's going to finish at 7.8 Tyler Becker is up next that's going to be an unfortunate last for Sabrina yeah Sabrina you can see at that ifpa number there not just you know a brand new uh pinball player so she's just had a bad ball it
    68:42
    happens Tyler with a skill shot right off the bat we'll show the tutorial for this when when we do a full game but that is one of several skill shots you can get probably the most common skill shot
    68:57
    correct me if I'm wrong Tyler's playing out of Illinois the Chicago oh is that right yeah I don't know Tyler's uh Tyler story I'm pretty sure that's correct chat you can correct me if I'm wrong
    69:16
    yep Tyler made it to the finals in uh Mega Match play Oh fabulous yeah P time at pastimes yeah I'm so glad they're doing one up there they just have so many great machines at their disposal that a Mega Match is exactly the right idea yeah and it's only it's only getting bigger that's so
    69:37
    cool I think the next one's in March I think oh that's cool end of
    69:45
    March so we've got a lot of power features blinking right now which means there's a lot of big points available on the table he may even have one
    69:55
    finished and if I remember right if you get enough power features you go into a multiball that's just for completing power features right I forget the name of the multiball but that can be really really
    70:11
    lucrative almost gets that right ramp it's hard to see from this angle but that right ramp is super steep it's similar to the ramp on kiss where you really have to pretty much nail it perfectly in order to get it up that ramp and and in this game oh nice shot whoa look at that look at that triple three-way combo all three ramps in a row I love that this might be one of the hardest games to play ramps on and they are so lucrative you can see the one on the left is you have to get through that little bumper nest and up a super steep ramp and through the turn around ball is lit I'm assuming that sent to some big points could yeah it's going to be points awarded yeah I don't know what those points awarded are but it's going to be points awarded is it called cyborg mode you get all the power features I don't to
    71:02
    call he gets a Revive on the outside he'll get that back really really has this ramp styed in oh watch it trickle over and a center Shot cyborg multiball thank
    71:23
    you 65 million on Aces High that's fantastic there's nothing to shake stick
    71:43
    at so with that top flipper it's really tempting to to flip at it and sometimes you do and sometimes you don't want to you can kind of get a clean feed to the right flipper from there but you do have that bonus X shot those little spot targets up there that often times that's the one I miss is that one so I end up flipping at it and draining a
    72:03
    lot yeah the Borg shot that's exactly right through the pops and up the ramp and the same is true on the right ramp it's not uh it's not through the pops but it's a really hard ramp shot so on a mode like where that's the point uh it could be a little
    72:22
    intimidating but Tyler didn't find it intimidating apparently he just cleaned house good good double danger and tilt oh he put just a little too much that tilt amusements logo showed up and cursed him based on what I'm looking at Here Charlie is also playing out of uh the Chicago area oh fantastic I love all these Chicago players that are coming down it's a it's a healthy drive five and a half hours or so from Chicago kind of a boring drive too there's a whole lot of just flat between here and Chicago yeah that's true yeah it's just corn fields yeah lot of fields you see a lot of corn look at the score differential on this Tyler finishes at 211 million with 65 million alone on AES high that that single mode by itself would have been enough to beat the competition on this one let's see where we're at in our
    73:21
    matchups uh Sharky shootout is still going World Cup still going
    73:30
    look at that bit quite a bit still going man I I looked at Jackpot and they were on ball three but they're apparently still on ball three uh I couldn't speak to where the other ones are at World Cup I might go peek at that and see where we're at I'll be back it's right next
    74:13
    what's what is still going what is not out I got a question for Chad can you figure out which minor league baseball team this baseball hat is
    74:47
    from you a few moments and we'll go back to our matchups we'll have proper pin heads trivia soon
    75:04
    in all the games are looking pretty ah ball three player three or four across the board so probably not worth putting uh moving the rig over and disrupting for one player or whatever I asked chat to figure out the minor league baseball team this baseball hats from the duckies the rub rubber duckies the rubber duckies I made that up I have noidea is that true yeah was that correct it's correct I just made that up that's awesome Sol Espeon got it oh nice I get it cuz it's aan it's rubber Town yep makes sense this is their alternative uh hat for their alternative Jersey that's really fun akan also has a really fun arcade in it what is it called I was up there a few months ago and I played an arcade up there whole bunch of good pinball if you guys are aconites acroni let me know it was right next to another fun like a Billiards bar if that
    76:14
    helps all right I have a trivia question oh oh go ahead um oh gosh are you still thinking of the name of the bar is it by chance uh quarter up that sounds familiar that could be it that's a really fun uh arcade and Barcade yeah that could be it it's kind of kind of in the heart of akan more or less it's a no it's a little out out of there so they must be that must be something new but okay quarter Up's a great place they got they've got ifp tournaments every now and then it's got to be quarter up then cuz that totally sounds familiar and there there's a Billiards bar like right next door if I remember right okay well cool cool uh okay here's a trivia question for you all um I would love to know I should actually bring up we have station 300 yeah an awesome list of trivia from pin head I will bring that up but what was the first factory produced pinball game what was the first factory produced pinball game it was produced in Ohio in Youngstown
    77:33
    wait I think I asked this this exact question last night yeah did you ask this one in trivia as well yeah and it wasn't like a pin heads or anything I just came up with it on the
    77:48
    spot I'm not going to spoil the answer though I think I've got the right answer I think I've got the right answer all right
    77:57
    you guys can go hunting on the internet if you want all right so we are
    78:10
    waiting we have everybody is on ball three player three across the board or player four either ball three player three or ball three player four shies is done okay Sharkies is in wait Road Show I think we are done on world championship soccer or World Cup soccer depending on which machine you
    78:41
    annex let's see what's going on in the annex oh okay everybody's in we're just waiting to restart our next round all right everybody round three is up round three is up please find your groups your games and your players thank youy
    78:57
    to sh yeah friends let's let's go to Sharky shootout I've always wanted to defeat the Black Widow in a game of pool and I'm here to help you do it so let's learn some Chucky shootout pinball first when you plunge you're going to go up top and the skill shot is the top middle Lane up here make sure to dial that in because if you can get it on every ball it goes from 5 million 10 million
    80:33
    shot right here inside the upper orbit to complete that opponent once you've done that the trick showed mode starts which will light two of the drop targets at any point in time and your value of those trick shots will increase by increasing values you can build that up to a maximum of 30 million points which is collected right here inside the upper right orbit also collecting a trick shot will immediately start your next opponent please also note that the trick shot value carries over from ball to ball so if you've not reached that 30 million Max and drain your ball you can continue to build up that value on subsequent balls that's Sharky
    81:07
    shootout well it surely is Sharky shootout so this is not a game I see a lot in tournaments and so I'm really excited that it's at this tournament I don't even know if we've had it at pincinnati tournaments in the past uh it sounds like there was a a problem with the sound there hopefully we got that figured out did it come back by the end it sounds like
    81:26
    is that Chris Warren why aren't you here we need you here now it I wish you could be world eightball deluxe with more code and a ramp yeah boy it kind of is it hadn't occurred to me but you're right it is eightball Deluxe layout you're exactly right how about that I like this game this was it's fun yeah this was an interesting period for stern uh where they they had some dogs and some winners this one I think is a pretty fun game the lock shot is really really satisfying Chris we miss you in these parts just like Pat would love to wish you both both could be
    82:12
    here building that prize money value picking up a couple of major
    82:18
    shots walk a satisfying shot to make oh my gosh right right off with that uh upper flipper starting that multiball lock process I think we'll see most players get multiball here I think this multiball is pretty darn accessible ACC yep oh chocolate covered bacon that sounds fantastic oh that sounds good now now I know what I'm having for dinner oh little miscalculation there I think that might have been savable but a slap save or something might have been able to keep that in play but it just was not enough for a tip pass I know what I've got for later what's that hot sauce oh what is this I got eat hot sauce sauce on screen just has to be oh no oh no we got Hawaiian Hawaiian lava did you go to jungle gyms oh no I've had this part of my collection and uh Budapest fire dag on with names like that can we expect it to be pretty spicy uh I hope so safe bet it's going to be disappointing if uh Hawaiian lava sauce is not spicy that's so true
    83:34
    very good all right so uh Sam Arnold just starting off here wait that's not right that's not Sam oh this is is that Sam okay I knew you could do it yeah this is right I thought we saw somebody else with that name earlier but that must have been same jungle gyms is the best grocery store I think it's still the biggest grocery store in the country yes it is right yeah it's worth going if you guys have not been to jungle gyms it's an absolute trip it's similar to like um St Leonards in Connecticut where it's just massive but unlike Stew Leonards it has more than one aisle so you can explore your own way your typical aisles are departments yeah they aren't TI that's true like the hot sauce Department yeah hot sauce takes up an entire section of the store it's massive a maple syrup Department yes they do they actually have it it is so strange they've added a gashapon department what's a gshap pone it's uh like uh coin operated games from Japan really put in in basically a whole Department's worth like that sounds fun it's like six seven rows of just basically coin operated uh uh what they basically be like collector coin game machines where you get uh oh okay little figurines really yeah that sounds fun I know they have a couple of pinball machines there I've never played Gosha pone I mean it's not really like a a game it's more of just it's like the your your quarter machines that you put the machine and it gives you a little prize like where you put your oh yeah yeah I got you it just gives you something out B gives you uh you know there's a specific theme to each one yeah
    85:30
    I Department of those that's awesome I would like to see more Pinko in the US we don't see enough Pinko here this game you're watching Sharky shootout it is an Stern from the basically the Lost AR yep yep rightfully called in the chat eightball Deluxe with a ramp yeah baby and and interesting multiballs had come out of nowhere
    85:57
    as far as I know I've only seen one penko parlor in the US I'm sure there are more but there is one in uh in the
    86:08
    Carolinas all right I got to play penko only once oh really did you like it was it in the US yeah where' you play it was a traveling like machine somebody brought to a convention oh cool it is interesting yeah it's I mean there is skill to it I it's much like pinball it looks like there's no skill but people who are really good at it are really good at it uh people are really good at cheating at it yeah maybe they're good at cheating I do know that when I was in Japan I went to a Pachinko place like it's all they do and there were hundreds and hundreds of people there it was like a four-story building people playing Pinko yeah it's a casino people playing Pachinko all over the place it was really fun I have one at home uh but it was more like a collector's item I haven't played a lot of it yeah binko uh spawned from uh pinball yeah right original pinball right bag Bagel yeah similar Roots I think basically if my story is correct if I if I remember correctly um it was a bagel game was brought over to Japan and then they basically you know did some reverse engineering and made their own version made their own version and that's penko yeah I mean we did the same thing that's how pinball came about right it was just bagel and then it was like okay let's tilt it up put a plunger on it and let's add some flippers put eventually put some flippers on there it's wild to think about but we didn't have flippers on pinball machines until 1946 maybe um with Humpty Dumpty so before that you would just plunge yep and it was also a form of gambling then just like Pachinko is still today yep Pachinko is funny though CU you don't win money from Pinko you just win more Pinko balls and then you trade that and you trade those in for other things Humpty Dumpty thank you Humpty Dumpty was that Harry MBs is that who designed that one there is a Humpty Dumpty at to to bring this conversation full circle at pastimes arcade you can play the original flipper pin yep fun
    88:16
    game speaking of Humpty Dumpty why don't we have a an egg head at this tournament an eggh head what's an egg head is that a game it's a it's a uh it's a game that um oh was uh the middle featured at Pin Brew this past year oh okay and uh I didn't see it or actually maybe it wasn't this past year was the year before but um yeah it's it's a classic G where it's just you basically plunge and it's just pins there's no real
    88:57
    depend I think I have a vague memory of seeing the back glass for this super old right yeah super old
    89:12
    yeah all right after ball two Sam's going to finish at 21 with one ball left to play and JN started out pretty good on ball one so let's see if he can build on his Good Fortune so far finish those locks and start his multiball we had said early on that we expect to see a lot of multi balls have not seen a whole lot just
    89:35
    yet nice yep good control way to kind of see it over the Gap make sure you got it to a flipper I have a feeling it's going to be a really lucrative ball three for everybody I think so too it's a drainbo Tic Tac Toe them yeah it's great
    90:00
    fun to get to see Joe Rice play I get to play with uh Joe quite a lot and uh really good player and when Joe goes on a tear you just better get out of the way cuz he he can every once in a while I'll see him just mop up but go on a terror and just absolutely destroy a
    90:22
    tournament first time you clear that queue it adds value to the bumpers can start collecting that value immediately and then it just adds more and more value to uh to clear Q up at the top cuz the pop bumpers get hit a lot in this
    90:46
    game we are also seeing a whole lot of action from the pops directly into that scoop mhm oh my goodness it reminds me of a little bit of Rush where you're just in the scoop for half the game waiting for it to come out good reaction time on that that could have been a nasty drain there we go multi ball here it is we've been looking forward to this so you can see he's got all these shots lit all over the Playfield
    91:16
    there he's taking on his opponents during multiball going for those big shots and then also building his value for uh uh for the other mode the name I'm blanking
    91:32
    on oh my gosh everybody out of the pool ball save is still on got it back on ball
    91:43
    save see how much longer that lasts that upper flipper shot anyone utilized uh the uh posts to uh to make any outline outlan nice you're good oh interesting I haven't noticed I haven't noticed any outlane pegs here that you can and if you hit them both at the same time you will get that you'll get the center up too you'll get the center up nice see that would have been a good time to do it if he had I don't know if he had it but well not terrible he's going to get some bonus out of
    92:22
    it and end up at 127 after ball three so that's uh that's Greg final score on this Sam's had a pretty slow start on this
    92:32
    game but again this is not her first rodeo could have a big ball three comeback tries to go for that upper flipper shot into the lock just didn't make enough connection there maybe it was a little too late mystery could give multiball though what does it do what are we getting what are we getting just some PR not a whole lot
    92:56
    I mean don't get me wrong I'd love $100,000 in prize money but in terms of points not a
    93:08
    lot that reminds me I was watching uh a movie called uh tilt now she's in control I don't know if you've seen it I've heard of it it is the latest in the uh pinball movie genre it's like high stakes pinball uh $30,000 prize for a tournament that has I think people in it and you can't like nudge or anything if I remember right can't do anything I don't know it's not a good film friends it is made with love it is clearly made with love not a good movie if you're a pinball fan not a good movie they spend quite a lot of the movie playing with the attract Mode still on like comp competitive playing with the attract Mode still on so if you're if you're a pin fan yeah don't don't rush out to see it I I will however put in my 10,000th plug if you haven't seen pinball the man who saved the game Pinball colon the man who saved the game it's uh the story of of Roger sharp and the famous shot heard around the world that saved pinball in 197 s about right um but don't search pinball colon don't search pinball colon I don't know what that's a sounds like a disease uh but that is a fantastic movie if you're here you probably already like pinball but even for people who don't like pinball it is a terrific love story and a story about Second Chances and it's really really great and Court drama and a little Court
    94:41
    drama taking risks I knew you do it soier yeah baby I was lucky enough I got to see that movie in Columbus at uh the Columbus Jewish center with the sharp family they were there the people all the people who were in the movie were actually there and it was
    95:10
    awesome did they at least have the glass on the game and tilt I think the glass was on there because they may not have had the keys and the only reason I think they didn't have the keys was because they didn't seem to have any credits in any of the machines so maybe they couldn't you know open the door and add credits that's why they left it in mode the budget maybe didn't include enough for quarters I don't know again made with love not a good
    95:38
    film yeah baby doesn't sound like it was made by pinball people no it wasn't sadly it's like a college art film it could be it could have been could have been a project film the way they shot pinball the man who saved pinball was awesome say more about that Pat what did you like about I loved it that was released on Apple initially right Apple TV I'm pretty sure initially released the pinball the man who save the game uh it might have been I saw it first on Amazon I think but or might have been Amazon I might be wrong it is so worth it is so worth whatever the rental cost is so worth
    96:22
    it so we're watching John Ramson now keeping a good thing going he's at 155 in climbing which puts him into first place here we'll see it with some bonus don't let the scores fool you they're a little confusing in this game because they do a little subtotaling for players one and three and players two and four but don't let that confuse you the four player scores are the ones at the top oh yeah the documentary style with Raj interrupting yes I thought that was great and honestly any body who either knows Roger or has seen footage of Roger the actor who played Roger was so perfect so perfect it was almost creepy he did such a great
    97:15
    job all right so don't ever count Joe Rice out he is a shark here playing Sharkies very good do it again and uh could could go on a tear here to win this one
    97:36
    oh I should note tilt now she's in control that's the new one there is another movie called tilt with Brook Shields from the late 70s very different film well now you can count Joe Rice out if you want cuz he did not win that one so let's see how our scores came out and then we will look to move do you want to go peek around Nick and see what might be good to move to well let's see what's what's on the docket but I think JN went ahead and secured a win on that one and he's going to take seven more points for a total of 13 into round four when the time comes but I think we still have a lot of round three left if I had to guess cuz that went pretty fast
    98:32
    fun we might move over to Diamond lady I want to see it okay that one's done already is there anything still playing that we should go
    98:42
    to thank you everybody for joining us for those who are relatively new to the stream in the last few minutes um I'm Justin and uh here with Nick who's who's hunting down a game for us to watch but you're at pincinnati 2024 this is Cincinnati's big pinball show and competition this is already our third Tournament of the week if you can believe fourth Tournament of the week so we started out Wednesday with the road to pincinnati tournament at Arcade Legacy then we had Thursday our Strikes Tournament our Classics Strikes Tournament also at Arcade Legacy then this morning we had women's qualifying for their Amazing Race which was going to take place starting at 10: a.m. tomorrow and now we are in our match play qualifying rounds 1 through 12 out of a total of 20 rounds we're going to do the other eight tomorrow all of that for our Mega Match play qualifier then to move into finals so you are joining us at a perfect time to watch some amazing pinball and uh we have some really really Heavy Hitters here we have some folks who may be kind of a surprise maybe they're Regional folks that you you may not know if you're not from the area who are just fabulous players that could take the whole thing so um I encourage you I have the the link Pinn I think or at least at one point I did have the link pinned um to the tournament and if not I'm going to post it again now oh go to Road Show um go check out the players go check out the Arenas this is a hell of a tournament Torx thank you so much for that subscription four months love it great stream great tournament weekend good luck all thank you so much so we'll be moving over to Road Show Road Show I love Road Show I got it and and we can talk Road Show strategy uh when we watch a full game of Road show but we will give you a little bit of strategy here it looks like Scott Woods is on this one up from Memphis Jesse Baker oh Jesse Baker this is his favorite game ever I'm excited we get to see Jesse on this are we and we're starting with Jesse is that right yeah player two ball three mhm so my my guess is this one's going to go long cuz Jesse knows this game very well now Eric doesn't want it interrupt uh Steven who is uh playing Game of Thrones right now yep Steve Bowen is uh right in the middle of a game and those two machines are pretty close together so Steve locks a ball that buys Eric enough time to move in and we are playing Road show Jesse Baker is the owner and proprietor of Arcade Legacy kind of uh one of the centers of the Cincinnati pinball Community Arcade Legacy and sponsor of this uh show he knows this game very well and the fact that he is behind at this point must be uh a little frustrating cuz I know he knows it basic strategy on this is that your multiball is built in the middle right here by hitting this thing over and over you'll see it goes Monday through Friday that builds toward your multiball lock then your lock is right here the other strategy is to do what he's doing right now which is to play modes and those modes will just tell tell you what to do on the screen right now it's uh it's ramps but he's doing the Ohio mode which is frankly not that good you can see where you are in the country down here and it's a really cool game because the various colored spot targets around the Playfield will decide where what city you're going to go to next the real trick is there's a hidden one right here so if you let it come out of this feed and hit that one it's going to put you down here in the South and that's where the best points are and uh one of the selling features of this game it does but Jaws doesn't eats the ball eats the ball it does eat the ball just now yep in fact both of them will eat it red and
    102:38
    Ted so some of y'all might be familiar with fun house this was like a follow-up to fun house using similar technology right so we have the two characters that their eyes follow you around the Playfield and they talk to you and they swallow the ball there goes the jackpot so now he's going to look for his his opportunity to hit red and just alternate red and Ted there's another one you saw it he just picked it right up 45 million now Ted's a little bit more difficult to hit in so much as he has that thing going up and down in front of
    103:15
    him Red's not too easy either you got to yeah from that upper Flipper the upper flipper that's true whoa sneaks it in a last minute sneak in shot on that jackpot let's see what that was worth the big one 55 mil how about
    103:35
    that replay well he gets oh no oh no can he get it can he get it can he get it he did oh my gosh oh he no Jesse look at this man he knew exactly what to do here he shakes it it's back an he shakes it it actually he he had it kind of in a good spot for a second for a second but it wasn't all the way over where it needed to be not going to pass up Scott tried to shake out couldn't get
    104:05
    it all right is up Christa we saw Nolan Liam earlier playing in our first round now we get to see Christa playing here in round
    104:16
    three I got to say I love her hat I'm a little biased Scott Woods when we were starting this round had 380 million against Jesse's what was it 110 then Jesse comes back at 368 but it's not quite enough not quite enough if he had not tilted if he had just let that ball drain he could have passed probably he probably would have passed
    104:46
    yeah but that's okay with 12 rounds today and eight rounds tomorrow that's a whole lot of match play I think it's possible that just he could have paused looked at the score and figured out to just let it drain but that man intentionally letting it drain is so hard to do especially if you have experience on the machine and you feel like you feel like you can do more if you had the opportunity yeah maybe you've you've done that exact nudge back in 100 times before all right well what a murderer row now Ryan McQuade he's in Striking Distance really yep right there with 240 look at these have three players under a th000 on the ifpa ranking Jesse Baker at 184 Ryan McQuade 434 and Scott Woods at
    105:35
    794 and you better believe there's a whole lot of points on the line for this
    105:46
    tournament I did not look to see what the projected value of this tournament is I'd be curious oh almost gets it to the outlan but keeps it in [Music]
    106:02
    chat I realized I just now realized I think I left the trivia question on the table what was the first factory manufactured pinball machine whizbang I believe was the first man Factory manufactured Pinal machine is that what you uh is that what you recall whizbang Youngstown Ohio um the Whopper value is 188 to the winner 188 that's a lot of points that's a lot of points you could take all of my combined collected qualifying scores and would not even come
    106:37
    close if you take 126 you're getting at least two Whoppers that's awesome I knew I should enter this tournament all right so here's here's the trick man that hurry up that blast shot looks so tempting and it is and it can be worth a lot I don't think it's worth it I don't think it's worth it that happens more often than not when you hit that blast shot you get what just
    107:07
    happened to Ryan mcade Scott Woods gets to put in his init always a cool sign in a tournament oh he opted not to Jesse Baker gets to put in his aits also opts not
    107:23
    to Wy K welcome to the chat thanks for joining us we're moving off of Road Show and potentially to Grand Prix maybe is that what he's looking at Grand Prix is he eyeing Grand
    107:40
    Prix Grand Prix oh look at that this will be the new Ohio record clein has the current Winner's uh Whopper points record at 152 180 would be a new Ohio record very cool all right you are looking at Williams masterful em Grand Prix consistently one of the most loved popular EMS in the greater Cincinnati scene and certainly the other tournaments I do in Ohio so glad to have it in this one what makes this game so popular one word it's Spinners Spinners make this game popular you've got these dual Spinners on the left and right orbits similar to like Pulp Fiction for instance and boy are they fun to ride when you rip a spinner you get cuz it's an em there's a physical mechanism right that's counting those points and it feels so good people love this game and then when you hit the bonus that if you've maxed out that 50,000 Point bonus you get to hear it count down with those old school Chimes dinging ding all the way down it feels so good this is one of the more satisfying games in pinball in my humble opinion wow I can't find Grand Prix for the life of me well it might be maybe they listed as Williams Grand Prix just to distinguish it from Stern Grand Prix okay I will help you look for it cuz these are very tiny
    109:09
    words it's here somewhere that's Shawn Davis in case you're wondering if you're wondering who you're looking
    109:22
    at wow it doesn't let you do F oh Grand pre em there it is see if that does
    109:29
    anything now I'll keep my eye on the game you keep your eye on that drop catch from Shawn Davis on the right to a great spinner rip on the left love those I'm about to spin a rip oh no but sea unfortunately did lose it sorry that I blocked your view with that I'll show you what happened there is a gap on the left and it just went out that little Gap sorry
    110:02
    Sean oh no Lewis has a quick up and down nothing to do to save that he gave it his best but it just wasn't going to stick you hate to see that
    110:18
    friends I saw you calling for a roll did uh did somebody roll this did it go all the way around oh no oh two house balls I mean technically Lewis didn't have a house Ball but it was close it was basically a house ball and then another house ball o hate to see that that is so weird that Grand Prix does not show up on here in
    110:48
    our almost almost gets it at the saucer there that saucer will collect but he didn't really have any bonus to collect to speak of here if you want to pull this window over there I can look at this that's
    111:02
    okay all right well it looks like that might be it that's all of our players all balls and that is the end of our grand prix we're just waiting on our next round to start uh player one did roll it awesome
    111:22
    awesome I love this game and I love like when when you saw sha Davis do that play where he basically he had a perfect drop catch on the right caught it like a baby and then fired it up that left spinner Lane holy moly that is how to play this game and it just feels good so let's take a look at our matchups and see who's still playing what that
    111:47
    strange all right next round is up next round is up please find your games and your players thank you all right round is up let's see who's playing what you pick it man go solar ride solar ride let's take a look at how to play some solar ride and we'll come back to this
    112:10
    part who wants to take a ride on some solar I know I do let's learn some solar ride pinball okay when you start out you're going to plunge up here and you're going to want to aim for the top lit Lane if you do that that will advance your bonus multiplier each time you collect a lit Lane up top it will move to a different Lane and you can collect more bonus multipliers that way standard scoring around the Playfield almost everything advances bonus you got rollovers you got drop targets you got in Lanes out lanes the top lanes and the saucers will all Advance your bonus stock ROMs allow you to advance your bonus to 20,000 points if you have modded ROMs you can get up to 39,000 points in bonus those are obviously multiplied by the Bonus multipliers other ways to increase your bonus multiplier would be to increase your bonus to increments of 5,000 so if it's on lit on 5,000 points the in Lane will be lit red that will allow you to advance bonus multiplier as well so at 10,000 points 20,000 points 15,000 points you will have the lit in Lane here that will advance your bonus X drop targets if you happen to hit all the drop targets down they will not reset you have to hit it into either saucer to reset the bonus you can collect your bonus mid Ball by hitting the top left saucer here and finally you want to watch out for the double flippers on the left here the ball can escape through them if you have them lifted up the ball can go through between the flippers don't get scissored that's solar
    113:39
    ride that's solar ride don't get scissored those scissor flippers on the left hopefully for our players sake we won't see a whole lot of action on those but we'll we'll
    113:51
    see we'll see if anybody's going to fall for that one all right starting us off oh great Ian said um I just watched the tilt trailer good Lord it looks horrendous yeah honestly the Brook Shields tilt isn't that great either uh but the yeah the new one is really over here really it's again somebody's labor of love and I'm so glad they made it but it's not a good pinball movie uh so oh my gosh look at that he was going for that left most obviously if you can nudge that get that Bon multiplier instead what does he do he gets punished with a straight down the middle drain one lane
    114:38
    over we got a diverse group here Bob cell from St Louis playing out of North Carolina I was just in St Louis last weekend love that town reminds me a lot of Cincinnati as a matter of fact
    114:59
    all right so Jim Dal Salvo here may not have an ifpa rank displayed because he may not have an ifpa rank yet this could be his first tournament yep that would be the case yep look at that really nice it's certainly not his first time playing pinball looks like cuz he's uh he was pretty quick on that save look at that he was really banging up that bonus uh the rollover like everything else in this game adds bonus everything adds bonus so when you can get like off the off the bumper like that and and just drive up that bonus that's fantastic and because it's a solid state and not an em You Can Count every single one of those they're all going to
    115:53
    count going for that skill shot no dice or as it looks on these particular systems the shill shot CU they didn't have a good way to make a
    116:05
    k all right guessing he's going to go drops yep he goes drops and he hits exactly where he shooting at the center drop gets bonus collects that
    116:19
    bonus unfortunately it's going to kick it to the left out lane and and
    116:30
    done Sarah playing out of the Pittsburgh area so we have uh looks like get that get that very nice oh oh looks like we have a group of players all not from Ohio is that right all four of them fantastic I thought we were going to get a ball back on that I thought we had a second chance but I don't see the ball in the shooter Lane oh no maybe the ball is in the shooter Lane it is yeah okay so she get a second chance ball back yeah we had uh Sarah is married to leis beevans right we had Lewis on earlier commentating with
    117:25
    those midwesterners I need some good Midwestern words you guys know any good Midwestern words I want to be able to do an impression of midwesterners being a midwesterner
    117:42
    myself bonus is building yes sir oh nice looked like a little nudge there with some Ricochet energy pull it out of that left out lane that's been killing everybody else just waiting waiting on that special oh could not get that this solo ride plays really really nice I got a chance to play on it uh before the tournament started and I I liked how it was shooting yeah it feels pretty good it looks like it it looks like it's shooting great I have not played This One op that's right op I think op is like when you're surprised by something right like op that's going to be a second chance
    118:19
    yep Bob knew he was getting that one back Bob won the uh road to pincinnati Classics last year oh nice nice yeah the road to pincinnati tournament is becoming just as much a part of pincinnati as as the the other tournaments that we do that just happens to happen offsite at Arcade Legacy Steve bowon got the win this year yeah how about that he came in and cleaned house then Holly cinan got the classics win last night the strike or the strike the strikes win thank
    118:50
    you that was a really good game of Galaxy I heard I need to go back and watch the footage on that I had to work oh just let me sneak past you here that's wouldn't be so cold out if it wasn't for that wind huh I believe it it came down to uh Jane uh John delao Bill Mason and Holly what a showdown what a showdown really mhm man again a murderer's row yep all right reset those drop targets at the saucer it's the only way to do it oh a slight miscalculation there but this is what happened is he happened to hit the knuckle and when you hit the knuckle sometimes it just deadens the ball he thought this was going to be a drop catch or dead flip and it
    119:40
    wasn't it was instant death yeah that happens oh now I'm going to be saying no you guys have to tell me if my Midwest accent is on oh am I saying it right I don't it's not for some reason it's not in my vernacular I think I live too close to the South so I get a tilt Ys oh I hate to see
    120:08
    that bill Mason back up Bill know that t yeah he does he's he's taking a pause yeah Pittsburgh is a that's where they say yunes right Yun meaning
    120:23
    y'all if you're in Cincinnati you are inches from Kentucky and so there's enough Southern influence that I picked up y'all y'all is definitely a big part of my vocabulary saying you all would feel very weird 37k lost in bonus ooh
    120:41
    brutal I'm overdoing it to make it Wisconsin or Minnesota oh not you Yin Yin that's great oh
    121:00
    no Center drain on that one Sarah comes back up thank you Indiana is also we are also inches from Indiana inches tri state area it is a tri state and we happen to have a great uh pinball arcade in Indiana too flippers is in Indiana and they also brought a bunch of games to the show so thanks to those guys we've got Arcade Legacy pinball garage flippers we're lucky to have so much great pinball here all right here we go comes down to this Comics to games quick game yeah boy we're getting a lot of quick ups and downs on this it's playing like an em and this era of solid state was right after the EM transformation I mean we're talking 1978 through 1980 at the latest so it they play like EMS
    121:51
    mm they look like it too yeah they look like them oh I'm going to keep working on my op that was a nice shot to get it right up there in the uh in Lanes again
    122:14
    yep oh get in there reset those drops there you go getting some really good bonus there and 29 o that's a that's as much as you can get out of this that was look like good 40 it might have been 39 if it added the 20 the 10 and the
    122:36
    nine oh almost got that flip on it I want to see that again I wish I had a slow-mo here cuz it looked like he actually had that and I don't know I don't know what went wrong maybe he dropped it a little early just missed it yeah just missed it it a little too early yeah yep we do have a bridge between Cincinnati and Kentucky that Pats refer referring to which is a uh it's a double decker so I know they have these in Pittsburgh as well but one set of lanes goes this way and then underneath the other set comes back from
    123:08
    Kentucky nice dig oh didn't couldn't save it again when I was a kid I asked my dad why we have a double-decker bridge and he said it was so if you were driving this way you could drop your shoes off to your uh cousins who were doing the night shift they could wear the shoes to the night shift
    123:31
    let see if Del can make a comeback not having a a really good game here yeah 69 and climan is going to put him just right now behind Jim to Salvo hopefully with a little bit of bonus could clear that but boy bonus potential so big on this game nice
    123:55
    good use to the dead bounce there very good use a triple dead bounce yeah and you saw he gave it a little bit of extra energy to to clear the
    124:06
    Gap that's not going to be enough to really get there it's going to pass gem up but not Sarah so that's going to be a third place yep all right need it's a little over 130 to get there we are not seeing folks land that skill shot as often as I thought we might that's a tough skill shot thanks guys for letting us know about the stream issues and my apologies it looks like we are having pretty rough internet uh so I'll see what we can do about this I'm I'm about to swap out for another commentator here and I'll see what I can do about this but thank you for uh for letting us know to have this it might be fine The Hot Spot time it might be to have this quality and caliber of player this quality of machine and to have a a stream suck on bit rate is a
    125:12
    bummer so we'll get it worked out stay tuned pick it up pick it up she got it right off the left tip of the left flipper and then straight down the middle off the pop bumper so that'll do her that's ball three going to end up with Bob Caldwell picking up seven points for a total of 22 Sarah's going to get five points for a total of 24 uh then we're going to see Bill with three points for 18 and Jim is going to pick up one point for a total of
    125:43
    14 so not bad let me see what we're doing on our matchups see who's playing who and playing what still Lots going on on lots of options
    126:00
    here although I'll say I'm surprised I guess we did move through that pretty darn fast so let's see we still have all of these to look at we could move almost anywhere it looks like Eric may have gone hunting it's looking like Pulp Fiction is it pul fiction he's waiting on W on P all right we'll move over to pulp on so that'll be Hannah Schwab st e wonger uh well it keeps moving around on Mew St ner Frank young and Joe bear a lot of uh Columbus and Cincinnati in there so let's move over to Pulp Fiction and in the meantime you can look at the brand new carpet from the newly renovated holiday in Eastgate well I make the switch
    126:57
    here's our four players as you know this is tiered Swiss pairing so you'll see players with sort of similar totals in sets so you have two 17s and 2 13s here Hannah and Stu at 17 Frank and Joe at 13 Joe comes to us we were talking about Indiana earlier Joe comes to us from Indianapolis has uh an awesome pinball bar out there that whenever I go out I'd try and see if Joe's there so looks like we're waiting Stewart right now is player two looking like he's got 735,000 yeah and he just got locked two in the pawn shop and yeah right now that's that's the lead right now in that group this carpet makes you feel like you're on psychedelics yeah I get that it is a little
    127:48
    trippy boob newart says I want to see y we can make that happen maybe next game we'll follow yop
    127:54
    trouble is if we wait until they announce who it is then it sometimes they have to wait a long time for our tutorial but I think it's worth it have to uh really figure it out ahead of time and stop that group yep I want to see y too here's Stu Stu you know Stu must have held the flipper and just waited for the rig to go around him cuz he's still
    128:19
    playing love PP fiction we can talk strategy for just a second uh but right now he is finishing up his pawn shop lock for lock three so he's about to go to a multiball you'll see all his big opportunities will be lit around the Playfield uh certainly multiball right here is a big opportunity for pawn shop and then uh it will light other opportunities around the Playfield lot of points right
    128:49
    there we wouldn't wouldn't have been able to watch yach this round anyhow playing in the annex eightball yeah if he's in the annex uh then yeah we can't go watch him but I would like to watch Scott play though Scott came up as well from Memphis we just missed watching Scott uh play uh a little while ago we did yeah just finished just finished
    129:16
    up so the red the red indicated shots are called payoffs and uh he did a just a fine job spamming those
    129:26
    30,000 for that lock right there still playing some was so he does have his briefcase locks as well so you can see right here you have to knock down these inline drops and work your way back to this vuk right here
    129:59
    yeah ejecting the balls to the be the music look at that save wow that was I know it ended up being a drain anyway but watch this save this was super
    130:10
    cool it comes back at a weird angle love that that was Zippy hey Eric could you have the post in on this one uhst is there but there's no myad okay no fine I don't think we have yeah oh is it okay we can fix I can fix that hey Eric I'll fix it on here yep yeah be able to make it a little smaller he said we can probably see a little bit more uh Playfield so let's do that we just got to find it yeah so the the post is there you just can't see it right now but it is in fact oh yeah just barely
    130:52
    oh no it's not it's technically not in frame it's not in frame oh it's so close now just just barely out of frame yeah right there on the line
    131:17
    itself yep post no rubber you got it you got it exactly right uh yeah so we actually do have outlane rubbers on Believe It or Not uh for the for the left side of the outlanes or for the outside of the outlanes but we do not on the inlane out lanane divider because uh the Eric's a jerk that's
    131:41
    why oh we can't be here all night right well I mean I guess we can I mean we we undoubtedly will for some portion of the early morning yeah these guys right here are very helpful not having anything there very unhelpful rough who wants some 5 a.m.
    132:01
    pinball let's hear it in the chat who wants 5 a.m. pinball pretty soon this will just be a 24-hour tournament like the anium and oh there you
    132:15
    go picked it up on a gold watch I cannot see on the back box uh if now if Joe's in uh 2X or not 2x scoring a lot of times so if you if you happen to hit these two Targets up here and then hit the watch right here you can do 2X and even 3x scoring for the remainder of the ball which is just incredible but uh couldn't see on the back box if that was the case all right start of ball three here's Hannah Schwab you may have seen Hannah earlier in our women's tournament she uh soundly made the final it was like in the top eight or
    132:58
    something Pat I have not yet played the new Metallica I'm curious to know how it plays relative to Old Metallica it's in the Next Room the new one oh I haven't even been in there to play I need to go play I haven't played a single game of pinball but day I've been enjoying doing this so
    133:17
    much oh good play there Hannah I thought that we might see that sail over and she was able to get it to calm down she's got her lock ready on the briefcase you can backhand that if you want she decides to go for a big old spinner rip on the right side I don't know that there is a juicier spinner in all of pinball than the opto Spinners on Pulp
    133:42
    Fiction you can get both of them going full speed at the same time with one
    133:49
    ball she picks up Mr Wolf so you'll see in the middle of this you got these characters if you collect all five characters you get to start a character chaos multiball which is worth a ton but it resets every ball unless you freeze it so actually getting to character chaos is really hard I think mhm I think I've gotten there like
    134:14
    twice I haven't played it enough to do so yeah yep it's a really fun game this if I had money for a new machine tomorrow I'd run out and get this one I really really love it so Jimmy's lit she bounces back up and lights this she already has Mr Wolf so she can right now go and collect those all right here and she still would have to get two more or she could try and get back up to that saucer oh oh trusted the post but there's no rubber yep it'll come back up with the momentum let's see boom not enough just could could have potentially flick that away but that was a toughy with no rubber it's not bouncing much a little bit more okay I made my adjustment so this may be all I'm getting out of it okay
    135:06
    okay there's a local Stargazer on Super Lube that rips something rare nice yeah so Eric recommended a a a spinner juice to me that I use now exclusively and it might be the same stuff that just it just it goes for days
    135:24
    and we have I I assume we have Grand Prix uh with made with that spinner juice on it right
    135:43
    right Stewart in the Ohio state championship mix for sure yeah ste's been playing some great pinball local Cincinnati area main stay he's been in Cincinnati competitions for as long as I've been around and just has gotten really quite quite good at
    136:05
    pinball yeah love Stargazer totally agree oh nice tip nice way to hold on to it St so he's got Vincent lit I don't know if it's worth going for he's only got two characters left is it worth going for maybe not not maybe you go back up top and try and light Mia first but if you can he's close enough to that character
    136:32
    multiball he goes for a shats pass straight to the briefcase how about that control for St wer okay he's got me it now is a great time to go for those characters now he's going to he's going to hunt this down right here cuz if he can do that character multiball holy moly what speed wow that came down quick jeez doesn't quite get the shot he wants oh no that's right worth
    137:02
    it come on Ste I want steu to pick this up I want you guys to see this multiball that's it that's it there we go he knows it too he knows he done good he is awarded all five characters and goes to character chaos so keep an eye on the Blinky red payoffs all over the the Playfield uh or rainbow payoffs you can see right now one he I think just picked up at the vuk there's one right where he started character there's one on each orbit there's a lot of points to be had right now and I didn't see what Stu had coming into this multiball but he's going to have a whole lot coming out of it if all goes well nice way to pass him over to the other flipper keep him in play loses one loses two still two in play
    137:57
    this is when multiball goes from Pure chaos to strategic as when you're down to two
    138:07
    balls loses one and down to one but I bet he's going to be pretty happy with his net of around two and a half right now steu is making these lightning tip saves and lightning slap saves so he added what about a million points then thank you Game
    138:29
    Boy that may not sound like much in modern game parlament but this is built like an old solid state so million points is a bunch of points yeah when this came out and um Mark Richie was at uh pinbu as a guest yeah he told me he was uh in in designing this game he uh actually end up staying with uh Quinton Tarantino for a while for you're kidding inspiration what he really said yeah you know what's funny about that is most people would be like holy [ __ ] I get to hang out with Quenton Tarantino if I were Tarantino I'd be like I can't believe I got to hang out with Mark Richie like you get to hang out with Mark Richie that's awesome he said there was a lot of what a dream a lot of pictures of feet I guess there would be sorry I shouldn't be swearing on this feet my apologies children and parents
    139:31
    Mark if you're watching nice job on this one I love this game so much what a run for Stu neiswonger let's watch that bonus add up he's going to finish at 2.5 on natural and when you stack the bonus on top of it he's going to add another 392 for just under 3 million points great showings to here on all three of Pulp Fiction Frank young another main stay in the Cincinnati
    140:00
    area he also helped me move a bunch of pinball machines so yesterday so thanks
    140:08
    Frank he is part of the Northern Kentucky pinball League uh that Eric runs if you guys aren't involved in a pinball league in your hometown do go look and see if you can find one they are so much fun you might play six or eight games a season or uh you know it's probably three or four hour commitment at least in our league Max and uh so rewarding and it builds your skills while creating a great network of friends so uh there's also like bells and Chimes leagues in most major cities and in a lot of smaller cities so that's an all women's league ours happens to be on the first Sunday of every month here uh but those can be really amazing as well there's children's leagues there's beginner leagues there's so many great ways to play Pinball I found the best way and I don't know about you is to go ask around at the arcade yeah just ask if you've got uh a pinball arcade around chances are somebody's trying to do something there mhm and I'll use the term arcade Loosely we had a league at BC battle Lodge and they had four machines and that was enough that was enough for a league there's uh quite a few Knockouts here in uh Ohio at at local bars uhhuh y one of the akan scene tournaments is that uh a bar uh called Rays yep and those are great especially if you're newer to pinball like this right here could be massively intimidating right you've got a 140 players and all these machines you've never heard of but a lot of really great local matches happen with four games and they're all newer and they sometimes do lessons on them beforehand yeah they got about six games and yeah that's it that's it that's all you need that's perfect my my first tournament was at Arcade Legacy back when there were four games and it was so great so I think leagues are where pinball becomes personal like it goes from being a thing that other people do to yours when you start doing League Play that's been my
    142:04
    experience it turns from a nice distraction into a hobby and if you're nervous that you're not good enough at pinball don't you worry about it this is such a friendly Hobby People don't need you to be good they just need you to love playing pinball you can be terrible I lost my first like last place my first three tournament last place doesn't matter so fun quarter up in akan does small knockout tournaments every Monday awesome awesome some of those smaller tournaments also use really fun formats you'll have like a flipper frenzy format or something like that that you don't normally see at these big events and they're non ifpa over at uh quarter up at the Monday uh knockout tournament so there's not a lot of pressure for that that high level competition you can just play with uh with your friends yeah they're not necessarily going for points right for Whopper points you're just going for
    143:01
    fun I agree Pat pinball people are just some of the nicest people
    143:17
    uhoh all right what's happening now I think we're going to Game of Thrones cuz this is a bar burner group you're kidding wow okay well we'll bring up our Game of Thrones players yeah it looks like Eric's all lined up on Game of Thrones I can see St is that Sterling playl on it yep Sterling's a
    143:41
    killer he came in was it second or third at the uh road to pincinnati tournament uh he was he was up there oh yeah Gary Harts Nathan Travis Murray and Sterling we got a group jeez all right guys I bet they're only wonder I was going to say it's ball two player one or something over there yeah yeah these folks know their
    144:10
    pinball and after this round I may take a break I think we may sub in a couple of other commentators uh so you don't have to look at my face all day everybody uh but don't worry we are going to be swapping in and out over the next couple of days uh with a lot of different commentators in fact here's my replacement okay
    144:43
    so all games exactly the same stand Nam over here and I'll do it in just a minute I want to wrap this around and then uh we have all of our call outs on separate deck which is really so they're all just waiting
    145:18
    lot um I click interact right there and then all right
    145:26
    Gary all right friends I'm going to welcome my replacement how did I do on spelling first try got it right uh Jay
    145:39
    denim say again here that's awesome okay cool I'm going to take my leave for just a little bit but you guys enjoy Jay denim our local Cincinnati area Arcade Legacy commentator
    146:04
    this what's up Jay what is up am I live live I can hear you sweet chat should hear you we're in the middle of a barn burner group just moved on to here Gary Hart's just wrapped up all three got Nathan brand out of Indiana
    146:26
    right Blackwater multiball I think I chance to see what the scores are 63 mil that's a okay so he's got that's a pretty good score grey joy and
    146:41
    Lannister I had to guess uh this one of those dmds where you don't get to hear see the score very often it's uh let's see all of the animations yeah yeah which are wicked they're great for
    147:00
    DMD cradles up just before the uh send it upstairs nice before the air of of screens and LCDs
    147:23
    all right all right so back in the single nice goes for two battles of once little two for one oh right down the middle wow that was just a single danger that's that's a little nicer than this game can normally be set up and a pretty crazy
    148:38
    the lock and the mode so let's see how far has Travis gotten here he's got bunch of
    148:47
    houses got to be with that score you got to be really far in I have just been running around playing pre-war pinball machines and games I've never seen before I've heard the I haven't really gotten a I got a chance to do one like not even like I didn't get to play anything just one walk around the room and there's just a lot of cool stuff in there yeah wild selection
    149:25
    replay just now getting a replay with 1.8 okay so the bar must have been set really
    149:46
    high so I've only ever played this the premium version a couple times but I was told there is a multiball up in that upper play field have we already got to see that I think we're seeing that now oh really Castle multiball okay y so are the big points up like is the jackpot upstairs or it looks like it's all over the place huh I have not actually gotten Castle multiball because I I've played uh a couple times on uh a premium but I've spent most of my time on the pro so I'm not really sure certainly not gotten a castle multiball
    150:28
    before but looks like there's some good uh good jackpot shots on the uh the Playfield yeah and his uh two times Playfield looks like it's just going to go and snap that one okay that did not register that gone oh there we
    150:48
    go oh there's still active up on the in the castle oh they
    151:14
    upstairs whoa 40 45 million times three on that just racking a point
    151:24
    just making it that much more difficult for Sterling uh what's up Manny Costa I'm not the one to teach you the the rules of Game of Thrones but it seems like Travis is probably showed us a lot of it a lot of this game in just one
    152:11
    point okay so just going through his options oh he's timing out a mode looks like it I thought he was looking for another plan of
    152:26
    attack spending too much time waiting you can only assume for that right orbit oh tilts but with that score I pretty comfortable even though Sterling's coming up that's that's a lot the pressure is on
    153:03
    lost let's see if the 38th ranked player in the world can overcome this hurdle
    153:34
    okay stacking up some houses what's he going lanister and gry joy grey Joy is your uh left orbit is that correct I believe so
    154:06
    Ian says uh Sterling's more than capable of doing it oh yeah oh single
    154:17
    danger Sterling can definitely do it but will Sterling do it that's the
    154:25
    well not question there Sterling certainty that it's Sterling dad Sterling dad son son yep so this was I got here a little early I was ready to do rounds five through what did I commit to 5 through eight 5 through nine um is there going to be a a break in between rounds tonight or no it's just straight through straight through and how many rounds are we doing tonight 12 okay and then we'll finish with eight rounds
    155:01
    tomorrow all right where are we going to go next that's a good
    155:08
    question I don't know if Eric's going to move it looks like he's getting up he's gonna let's go ahead and check the standings after that round looks like he's getting up for the move all right everyone next round is up next round is up next round is up already that was the last one group your games and your players thank
    155:25
    you anything specific you guys want to see did you guys someone was really asking to see Tennessee okay let me see where he's at he's been in the annex a lot so
    155:46
    right we're going to Diamond lady which we haven't been to so let's really quick run the mini torial for Diamond
    155:57
    lady which is right here oh you got it yep while that's running can I still go to Studio mode and yeah let's go to Studio mode
    156:07
    [Music] now Diamond lady time time to learn about the classiest pinball machine from the 80s Diamond lady to start off when you plunge you'll get one of three modes you will get the spinner modes which Advance your bonus you will get the ace mode which drops these two drop targets and reveals a standup Target behind there you can hit that Target repeatedly for 100,000 a piece or it will light the diamond hurry up which which drops all the black drop targets here in the middle and you can hit the outside drop targets quickly as possible to collect anywhere from 5 million down to zero for the diamond hurry up you can also start the diamond hurry up during your ball by hitting down every single drop Target that is shown once you hit all the drop targets down they will reset drop the black drop targets only and the hurry up begins outside of that is very important to understand how to get your ball saves lit you have a center ball save between the flippers and you have an out lane ball save to the left to get the left outlane ball save you shoot through the left spinner and go around the back of the drop targets for the center save you hit down the drop targets that are at the bottom of the left and right banks these ball saves will only last a certain amount of time you have 20 to 30 seconds and these ball saves will turn off so it behooves you to continually collect these ball saves to restart the timer to play multiball you want to hit down all the red drop targets which are on the ends of the drop Target Banks once you do that lock lights at the right lane and you will plunge into your multiball during multiball it is the same rules as single ball play outside of the Playfield multipliers that are shown in the middle of the Playfield those are active during multiball only to Inc increase Playfield multipliers you roll through the lit lanes that are up top the lit Lanes up top will change with pop bumper hits you can increase the Playfield multiplier to up to 15x during
    158:31
    and and that's Diamond lady oh I don't know if is Eric doing anything with the camera I think you go take a look oh that menu on the menu score cam oh
    158:48
    no so if you've ever played in one of Eric's uh uh Northern Kentucky opens you have probably played Diamond
    159:02
    lady uh skill shot I mean we I know he just went over them menorial so I guess I won't be too redundant I guess one one thing you'll want to watch out for is this um Kickback it is not always uh friendly
    159:59
    nice spinner rip great tip over nudge finishes the upper Bank it's a little tough to see those um side Banks of drop targets it looks like we're just one left on the right and maybe just that bottom one on the left as
    161:07
    well boots this is one of the best players in Kentucky right here we can't see we got it as an international rank ranked just just outside of the top
    161:44
    dig another friendly kicked back tried to kill him straight down the center he's put quite a move on this thing and and no tilt very
    162:06
    Tim um Jason balls are I just standard balls um I think there is a game in the anx that has a like a black eight ball but it's probably just the lighting we got Willie another Kentucky player he comes up to Arcade leg Legacy every uh now and
    162:31
    again I don't even know how they got that menu on there thank you for your service Nick
    162:41
    mhm Tim had himself a ball there yeah really he's got the hurry up going Center drop saves him
    163:07
    right just trying to get control there we go working the drops
    163:30
    tries to backhand it yeah that finished it oh straight down the
    163:37
    center not going to catch Tim but that is a really good ball one all right Mr y we had some requests for him uh in the chat he's been uh over in the annex right yep Game Club Central thanks for the raid hey
    163:59
    Marty what were you guys doing today over at game club where are they based out of Columbus OH
    164:16
    sweet Ohio really is a hot bed of pinball ah he thought he had that right on the tip
    164:31
    some Howard the Duck heck yeah oh Howard the Duck all right all right got Ste player four he likes the
    164:48
    pressure I'll never forget the fun time at game club Cent that was uh ice Pirates that's a movie so steu started the mode where he just has the drop Targets on the edges lit he's got three left one on each
    165:18
    drop Ron Perman should have gotten an Oscar for that movie oh a lost momentum right down the
    165:41
    middle all right back to top of the lineup Tim hoping to extend his lead mhm
    166:00
    we got to get the camera angled up a little bit higher we had the women's tournament today so it's like shorter now we got all the guys their heads are getting cut
    166:13
    off I'll see if I can't move it up just a little bit just a hair I do love to see an action button in the
    166:31
    shot so I think Tim's in that same mode that we just saw stew in looking for a final
    166:52
    we got a replay button yeah another good dig oh jeez oh there is there it is it's probably too late now we got our eyes on it okay completes uh drops saved by the kickback oh and right back out the hitting the the button all night and I haven't gotten to really take a good look at the layout you
    167:30
    and Willie is starting the same mode that we've seen the last two players
    167:36
    in let's see how Willie fars almost gets up to the uh upper left ramp oh and down the
    167:48
    middle we've seen a some moves on this we I haven't seen anyone tilt you get a single Danger on this maybe uh I mean I haven't gotten to play this one at all okay so I'm not quite sure this is the first time we've seen it all night too okay oh no oh
    168:12
    no yeah he has realized Playfield validated and gave him his bonus and S him packed
    168:26
    all right let's see what ste's going to do now gets the plunge off and okay so this is the mode where you're going for that Center OH the center Shot
    168:49
    yeah let's see if Ste is he gonna go for it it down looks like try rip some
    169:01
    spins he might be weighing the option there of making that shot yeah it goes to the safer option which is the spinner nice drop catch he might
    169:17
    yeah definitely going for the spinner strategy going to try and send it up top
    169:29
    play well I don't that okay it's fine yeah he really battled that one there rough ball too so far enough to take second though points
    169:43
    matter your final position oh tilt Queen you were at Arcade Legacy last night
    169:50
    I don't know who that is but they liked Stew's fit stew always puts in the effort oh yeah to put on a
    170:24
    all right the safety uh drop of the middle down and he's out the right out lane okay he's he doesn't feel too confident with that lead knowing who's behind him yeah that is catchable there is a way to relight that Center drop
    170:55
    Target cannot remember but I do love having it if I have to play diamond lady oh just wanted to get control and ladders out just right between jumps out hate to see it
    171:18
    happen all right one ball game let's see what happens do you watch uh flip side streams yeah when they're on I'll I'll catch a a stream every now and then I haven't seen David uh you know rip the Vape right before he comes up to the table yeah that's like a signature move oh oh oh tilt okay we did see a tilt that would have been a Lazarus not for the Tilt look like
    172:26
    stew and the wig yeah that's a special occasion when St brings out the
    172:35
    wig I have yet to see that you know it's got to be for like pin golf or something special maybe we'll see it tomorrow the pincinnati weekend is still young nice
    172:54
    catch this might be the right time to go for that yeah with the the little bit of protection in the middle okay so what is this hurry up here is that the I have a feeling that's
    173:16
    now oh lost lost safety there again lowest drop okay on the two left and right Banks let it time
    173:40
    out so I guess it's just not an option solar solar Espeon maybe it's not always available because oh you already had the wind that's right
    173:55
    all right let's see what we've got going on right now Aaron who is tilt Queen I don't know who this is but they're a local oo Sharky shootout if that's still going there okay yeah looks like we got uh Nate gr on Sharky shootout
    174:41
    Nick camps uh trying to find us another game looks like maybe he's eyeing World Cup soccer
    175:52
    okay yeah looks like we're going to World Cup soccer we are just waiting on the table next to us to free up has to not interrupt those players
    176:42
    Maiden so ball three player two we just watched Shawn Davis wrap up finish with 200 million
    176:52
    as Bill Taylor steps up so we are doing a Swiss tiered matchup tonight so we're going to see a lot of players uh with similar accumulated points in match play get to see Bill Taylor from Cleveland we got Mark row all the way from New Zealand and Ken Grant from South
    177:16
    Carolina oh I saw uh Mark yesterday he helped set up some games
    177:50
    Delaware pinball Collective I think a lot of people would agree with you I'm not one of them I'm a big Jaws stand but this game is really rad people really like Godzilla oh yeah it's it would be hard to pick one of l1's best games Jurassic Parks grave they're all great tournament games is Brent playing tonight Brent mhm yes Brent is inde playing
    178:30
    tonight got that jackpot lit so a lot of uh regular commentators and uh pinball screamers are participating in a tournament instead of uh sitting behind the uh the
    178:45
    camera did you get on the wait list for this tournament uh no I did not want to do do all of the tournaments so did that's fair Wednesday Thursday and this morning in the women's tournament yeah I saw the weit list for this uh and I was like H I don't think I'm going to make that it was pretty deep uh Sean ker was like 76th on the weit list and he showed up and he got one of the final spots and there was uh I think there's at least another 30 more spots though right after Sean so this is it was crazy crazy weight list TBM another Jaws
    179:34
    fan upper left Flipper on this copy is jacked is it not Oh you mean like the angle that it's
    179:42
    at I I felt like it was a little friendly didn't have much trouble getting in those Lanes I wouldn't I wouldn't put B past uh Eric to have done something to tweak something yeah make it just a little off I was surprised with how long the ball save is on this that pretty pretty generous all right getting multi ball
    180:24
    checked off a couple of his power features that was Spinners and pop balls lit for some good points two times play field passes Bill trying to hunt down Shawn
    180:43
    now oh and that's a double danger this was the first table I played on this morning
    180:53
    it's pretty tight does not want to tilt out bonus collects the extra ball and tilted yeah those little upward nudges after that double danger not going to catch
    181:14
    Shawn Ken with only two million going into ball three all right pretty surprising TBM wants to see a big Ken Grant comeback let's go ball
    181:45
    uh well they had uh and they just recently had ball legalized is not gambling no way how recently uh pretty recently they were the last to
    182:04
    uh the last to declare it is not gambling let's uh take a peek at our matchups I think that was it think we got a a few more still playing I World Cup is done they probably have 100 so is bad girls so those are wait no never mind looks like we're on ball oh no it's that just finished up bad girls just finished up we're waiting on hot tip and ACDC in the
    182:46
    room chat where do you want to go is there a particular player you want to see or is there a particular game that we haven't gotten to see or something you want to see again what's some
    183:19
    no I don't think we have an arena but Queen has a request for ACDC and we unfortunately can't get to ACDC it is in which is on the other side of the
    183:34
    building really I did not know that I didn't know that that uh tattooing was illegal as
    183:42
    well okay South Carolina conservative uh I to see some Doctor Who Doctor Who Would beol seen we have not played uh Doctor
    184:00
    Who our uh Sun's gone down we don't have a a glare issue on cheetah any longer I heard that was something that was happening earlier cuz we have uh that's right these have uh these um I guess they're what they would be sun
    184:20
    I have no clue what they're called they're like uh natural lighting um Sun lamps it would be
    184:34
    called yeah I'm at a loss as well yeah they're basically uh like moon roofs building with
    184:44
    uh yeah they're for natural lighting to come in I'm sure somebody in in the chat uh knows the proper terminology for that but they're not uh oh from San Juan San Juan okay that's really nice that is uh zephen he's a Arcade Legacy player he couldn't make it to pincinnati cuz he went to San very nice how is the weather friend
    185:21
    it's got to be a lot nicer than here it has just been absolutely frigid here which is not really that characteristic of uh the Cincinnati area it's usually kind of warm compared to everybody else yeah it the weather around here can be a little
    185:44
    dramatic looks like ACDC is the last game which they have a heck of a group on there
    185:55
    so TBM says it's still long got to be at least 18 to play Skylight I think that's correct yeah Skylight thank you
    186:06
    Jason zbk says it's 80 and great in San Juan I wish it was 80 and great here instead of it you know like 26 or something it's pretty low
    186:22
    it gets pretty warm in these tournaments though yeah I were all crammed in here in this uh this room I walked by during like the introductions when Eric was gathering everybody up and it was packed standing room only up here it's crazy we 140 players and 188 Whoppers in this tournament that is a Ohio state record right now this is the this is the largest this is the largest Whopper points tournament in Ohio history wow now it just keeps keeps getting broken every couple months so we were debating about this earlier which uh pincinnati is this the fifth the sixth I have noide seven this would I mean according to the shirt yeah it's the sixth okay okay but I mean all right Diana if you're watching it was the
    187:24
    six were there pincinnati before pincinnati well there wasn't there was not a 2020
    187:34
    pincinnati yes good morning what's up that's uh Bill Bill Pa 50s in South Dakota okay that's nice let's do
    187:56
    yeah that's what I I was expecting South Dakota weather here do we have the match play link uh it should be pinned in chat was it not pinned um might be able to uh copy paste into uh I think it might still be on the clipboard the clipboard which which is just the computer's internal clipboard so if you copy paste mean like uh yeah yep okay great that's well there's the players if you just uh Delete the players part that should just be the tournament just this part yep and we it let you pin it so guys we are uh you're just now joining or listening we have just one more game of this round get the rig off of there and I'm going to see if I can't get it over to Doctor Who before the uh
    188:55
    so go ahead and take a look at the match play link if you'd like to see a game that's not listed in the annex or if you'd like to see a player uh as long as they're not playing in the annex we will follow
    189:48
    Jesse next round is up take a look at the matchups Mr Baker Mr Baker looks like he is on World Cup uh but we are going to go
    190:14
    round what's craping and everybody let's learn some Doctor Who okay to start off you have a choice between one of seven doctors most players will choose one of Dr one Dr six or Dr s starting off with Dr one Dr one makes video mode easier to qualify you qualify video mode by hitting these Escape standups right here or by hitting the ball back into the pops dropping it into the scoop behind the standups to get progress towards video mode Once video mode is lit you hit it back into the pops area if it drops into that scoop you start video mode which is one flipper for short jump two flippers for long jump can be worth big points if you get through lots of video modes with a 4X Playfield multiplier Playfield multipliers are increased by the upper ramp you shoot the ball up to this dead end Lane and loop it around the ramp here each time you do it will advance your Playfield multipliers in the middle of the Playfield if you have doctor 6 it will make advancing your Playfield multipliers much easier players will also Loop this ramp 10 times to start the sonic boom mode which will light the W shot into the H shot into the oot for a three shot combo worth up to 120 million points if you have 4X Playfield multiplier if you choose Dr 7 that makes getting to multiball easier you lock a ball in each saucer up top the time expander will raise revealing a bank of targets here to shoot at which each time you hit them will fill up this grid of Lights in front of them if you have Dr 7 you have to it takes less shots to complete that grid and raise the time expander once again to reveal three Windows once you shoot one of those three windows multiball will begin the three windows will reveal themselves again during multiball and each time you hit all three that is a jackpot worth an increasing amount of points that is also multiplied by your Playfield multipliers in the middle of the Playfield that's Doctor Who all right all right like Caleb just picked his doctor we're going to start doctor
    192:39
    7 all right what's the strategy that Caleb's going to go for oh oh he that's not a strategy to go for so hit this metal in Lane right here he was thinking that was gonna hit that
    192:57
    rubber all right Adams up it's going to go with do six uh if a player is going to start with this you can assume they're going to go straight for locking those balls
    193:11
    right and that's both locks go the benefit of Dr 6 is you can hit these targets up here in any order doesn't matter which one that you do hit it's going to get you to the multiball
    193:27
    faster oh no and there they go and they will be virtually virtually locked for him moving forward we'll come right back up Todd's up also chooses doctor six so that means that's going to be a lock ball strategy most likely yep got the lightning flippers with fat pink rubbers on them this game is set up bouncy uh single tilt warning on this as
    194:05
    well just barely makes it around that W ramp look like Todd also picked Dr
    194:17
    6 oh down the middle that's a perfect example of how those lightning flippers will screw you up standard flippers that would have been safe with a little tip over
    194:34
    Kennedy just pop a Kennedy in the house nobody's got to worry about getting matched up against Greg tonight
    194:49
    okay Dr 6 the common denominator against three players Nicks currently got his spot right now in uh state championships holding that that spot pretty strongly here so if you were to see this table in person you'd see a lot of fun like Doctor Who toys you might have saw um that one there on the left move a little bit when Nick uh hit that in Lane um just some just some fun features on the
    195:42
    second all right going to go for that lock shot most likely going to make it
    195:52
    and he's going to go all the way out the Left End ouch but that's still holding the lead when I was over there uh getting the rig set up Caleb told me yeah of course the stream's got to be on the game uh that I don't like playing well going into ball three right now as of at least right now he's winning yeah
    196:23
    so maybe this uh this is just the right Doctor Who for him oh had a tilt so yeah that went oh it did tilt I haven't seen that seen that animation before so it goes straight to double danger to tilt Todd's going to let that sit yeah
    196:53
    hey Greg got finals next week okay got your priority straight bummed you're not here it's always good to see
    197:24
    all right okay dror five Dr Dr five is going to build up this Playfield multiplier
    197:42
    faster uh yeah zbk these these tilts are very tight players really struggling and this I I haven't seen this one go uh the distance all day this has been not one of the games that we've been moving to uh at the end of the round it's really hard to to cradle up and punishing uh misses on these okay maybe see some Loops that seems to be the strategy here
    198:21
    Nick has this game at home so definitely familiar with the game has a strategy in mind it's just is this uh machine just set up that crazy difficult that the uh oh okay the strategy is not feasible I think that might be the case here well you want to move that we had a request for uh uh world soccer World Cup's a fun one and it's been playing long
    198:57
    yeah if it's still going we'll move the World Cup and if not we'll move World Cup next round this this will be a big ball three if it doesn't
    199:16
    move oh that's double danger but keep keeps it alive double going to try that uh lock again let that that tail poop settle that
    199:37
    was tried to backhand it tries to backand again backand again it's
    199:53
    it okay couple million from that he like all right we'll take that one way or another it gets up
    200:11
    right nice takes a a very generous bounce back in oh straight in there right into
    200:23
    multiball does not want to tilt during multiball though all right marvs would like to see some jackpot jackpots a good one too and it's right next door
    200:58
    increasing oh okay staying alive back into single ball play but doesn't tilt out bonus so that's it's a great ball three
    201:14
    okay going to finish with 64 n Adam so looks like multiball is the uh the proper strategy here no no ball save or short short ball save
    201:44
    okay brings Todd up Todd's still got a lock to go I think Todd's definitely going to go for multiball here get that lock shot in and try not to
    202:02
    die yeah I mean that multiball really helped Caleb Cena's lead so big points there
    202:19
    okay went with Dr four spot your repair shots made of oh boy and a
    202:31
    drain okay so Nick is trying to get out of fourth place now all right going to go with Doctor one two four where we going
    202:52
    seven no we're changing the mind going back okay I think he's gonna go back for that Loop
    203:05
    Strat sets himself up good Loop shot okay Loop into a locked ball it's not so bad I think he might you think he's going to re-evaluate the strategy and you just go for the lock shot we're going to continue Loops yeah going to continue going for Loops he's he's been working to find that that side ramp he can get it dialed in and that's what
    203:37
    happens okay and that got him out of last straight to Second and I guess uh Caleb's uh disliking uh doctor hoot just a little bit less right now now with a pretty solid win all right let's see if I can't get the jackpot or World Cup sounds
    204:21
    shout out to all the sponsors uh that have played their part in pincinnati down here in the
    204:46
    corner Nick waiting patiently until uh ni neighboring game finishes
    205:29
    all right player three ball two Sal Travis um couple rounds earlier going for that short plunge get it straight to a
    205:48
    flipper oh yeah it it was in I maybe it's coming back I think it's coming yep we're
    206:12
    good oh you're trying to unlock and move it oh wait try this no try it again okay it all right Nick's gonna get that camera lined up a little a little bit
    206:55
    better John and Jason um very close scores going into ball three look like Joel is going to give the game a second
    207:31
    all right uh Joel just grabbed the skill shot there 15 million sorry about that oh and straight to the out lane oh we got a ball save love
    208:01
    nope oh oh and it just bounces right out the right outl really was trying to work for control there got a lot of points in that short amount of time though John's up now holding the lead right now racking the league super awesome
    208:36
    [Music] saucer okay all right double it okay Cashes in takes it takes the points so if you double that saucer this ramp will lift up you have an opportunity to double your uh award by hitting up underneath that
    209:02
    ramp all right Jason not too far behind lock short plunges again and Perfect Nails it one here we go multiball
    210:12
    up nice loses multiball but that's a great uh live catch that's enough to take the lead right now and that's a pretty good lead going into ball
    210:24
    three Travis and Joel are more than capable of catching but it's going to be uh it's going to be tough we going have to put a lot of work
    210:37
    in yeah just joining this mid game we don't know like what progress they made right
    210:50
    let waai on Travis's coming on over right now okay oh he's watching on the screen over here yep
    211:29

    houses we're going through all of their uh attributes and this is a four ball
    222:39
    multiball just in time for Wizard time yeah right on time slow bro you love this game this game is definitely growing on me I don't have a lot of experience on
    222:58
    it uh first time playing the premium version I do love that upper play field
    223:24
    here one target left upstairs he'll come back down man these these payouts are huge 25 million time 4 combos are the five
    223:46
    times yeah the the rules are a lot of fun I like I like the different houses and their different strategies um there's a common denominator again like amongst players um but if you ask enough players I I feel like there's a lot of variety at what folks are going to choose to start
    224:13
    with and that that tells me that nothing is really Juiced
    224:22
    up um this is a Steve Richie game each mode has its own like pros and cons I think it just depends on you as a player what your strong suit is and if you're Raymond Davidson you can play play them all play it all the way through
    224:54
    okay charge now I'm not familiar with what that payout
    225:36
    up there it is second clear on the upper play okay go straight for Baratheon
    226:04
    Barian but that value is increasing heavily where's the where's the
    226:13
    payout I'm assuming it's right here oh okay staying alive was quite the move for this
    226:29
    copy ball is just hanging out up in the pop bumpers here we go back
    226:37
    down great shot great catch back to the upper play field there's one shot up there to make good
    227:15
    that castle multiball y your standups completing those man is
    227:22
    fearless all right what do we got going on here battle battle wall
    227:51
    it's almost harder to commentate when everything is lit yeah of Endless
    228:05
    Options you can't really talk strategy when all the strategy is available to do so and there's no doubt that uh Raymond knows every just about every strategy you this game definitely
    228:34
    targets breach that was big white times one Super Jackpot okay where is our
    229:22
    bill has anyone gotten the iron thrown on Eric Bounty we'll see if uh Ray they can't get
    229:44
    there right now uh seems like he's really comfort with this setup yeah he's making this table look really
    230:39
    ow yeah he's played this um Targaryen mode a few times now back downstairs collects on the left flipper right back upstairs this man definitely has a game plan so you're saying he's timed it out that's why he um keeps going back for the center ramp to restart that
    231:48
    oh I'm just now noticing on the DMD the okay Iron Throne ready oh
    231:56
    wow oo almost had it who was asking for that uh load of breath there it
    232:12
    go yeah you guys should start asking for more stuff to be seen on stream
    232:32
    thing and a very difficult setup to oh great little tip deadly back in the multiball got a little bit of ball save that's gone
    233:33
    up so when we started when we jumped on this it looked like Joe Joe and Ray were uh pretty close their two scores were pretty close so Ray did a lot of work on Ball three yeah Ray started out with just just shy of uh uh bill is at like 900 think 60 something thousand or a million
    234:13
    rather uh Patrick why did he stop seems like he was t out he was tapped out um you know I I suppose getting to like the second wizard mode during tournament ball three it also depends on the uh the scores of the other players scribble says Eric just didn't want Ray to take his uh GC that is
    234:41
    funny but yeah how long has this round been going on seems like long seems like the round have been on average about 28 minutes or so not this one we've been in this round yeah so this round is going 46 minutes so about 15 minutes over the average play
    235:17
    Deo Deborah always with a a fresh tune before she steps up and while Deborah plays um Deb's got right where she wants them s Robin Hood this is the uh the last game of the round so if we've got requests for a new game this is the time to start making them yeah did we we didn't get a chance to um follow Jesse if he's not in the annex we can put him on next we have seen Jesse today okay we had a request earlier for him we saw him on Road Show on his favorite game oh yeah that's he blow it up uh no he had a he had an unfortunate tilt that uh prevented him from winning I believe he took is his Road Show so maybe he forgot that we tightened all the tilts up when it came over here give us Preston okay Greg wants Preston
    236:17
    I've seen him over in the annex as well so yeah we haven't seen Preston out here too
    236:38
    much I feel like as a player going up after someone's been tapped out like you got to put the hammer down for two people the person they tapped out and the TD that tapped them out all right Balian effort from Deborah she will take third I'm going to get up there oh actually bring yeah go study Greg let you can watch Preston and then do like 30 minutes of studying and then you can come
    237:19
    all right next round is up next round is up please findes and your players next round is up Eric trying to move things along here making the announcements uh where is Preston
    238:01
    got one more set of matchups to scroll to okay all right Preston is on Iron Maiden we've seen some Iron Maiden but it's a fun one to watch
    238:17
    I see you geek gamer uh standings are here they are insanely overwhelming to look at uh so if you want to click that link that we have pinned in the chat uh you can scroll uh on your cell phone why do we pick Iron Maiden uh because somebody by the name of Gregory Kennedy wanted to see his pal he wanted to see his pal Preston oh so I was just the secondary huh okay well I'm player one so if you you said you have to all right well when I'm not playing I'll I'll commentate and then you don't you can take your time yeah it works youj got it all right well I'm first on Iron Man okay we got Min uh yeah let's show
    239:15
    the flight of rickus let's learn some Iron Maiden pinball okay you're going to start out and plunge into this Center Target for a skill shot next you have five modes in the center of the Playfield you qualify these modes by hitting the white Eddy triangles across the Playfield once you hit enough of those the center ramp back Target will light hit that to start the mode follow the instructions on the screen for the modes if you just follow the lit shots you should be okay multiballs you have Trooper multiball the locks are lit by Center drop targets here hit those enough to light the locks locks will light on the right orbit and the spinner Lane next to the upper flipper lock three balls for Trooper multiball once you're in that multiball you're going to hit jackpot scatter on the play field you can hit drop targets to be able to hit the cannon up up the middle which will spot shots for you and eventually light the Super Jackpot which is the tiny shot off the upper flipper mummy multiball Captain balls in the back you can hit these enough to spell mummy and then lock a ball up the center ramp hit the captain balls again a bunch to spell mummy to start multiball hit the ramps for adab balls and it's a switch base mode so once you H enough switches hit the captive ball for a jackpot next the power modes if you hit anything ramps if you hit a bunch of spinners if you hit a bunch of Pop bumpers if you hit a bunch of the orbits you will qualify the power modes once you have started those you will complete them by doing more of the same once you've done enough in those it will light a power jackpot at this target the yellow insert will light please pay attention to that Target it can become very valuable the LCD screen on the bottom right will tell you what that's currently worth and the current multiplier Playfield multipliers are qualified by the four standup targets with x's on them there's two in the back here by the upper flipper one in the middle of the Playfield one through the bottom Spinner by the pops hit all four of those to light one of the in lanes that switch with your flippers to start 2x Playfield if you hit all four targets again before starting the Playfield multipliers it will start 3x Playfield when you go down the lit in Lane once you're in Playfield multipliers hitting all four targets again will increase the timer on the multiplier if you're having trouble hitting one of the targets feel free to shat through the Left End Lane and hit this target here will spot you one of those that move will also spot you help during modes main strategy of the game combine some modes with some multiballs keep the ball alive and always keep an eye on the power jackpot to score big points that's Iron Maiden it's almost over all right we're back with not Nick camps I am Nick camps oh no I'm not I'm Justin Masterson but I'll change my name but we're about to watch some Iron Maiden a yep we got a request to see Preston very nice request fulfilled see how easy it is folks uh anyone you want to see we'll make it happen man that's playing in the tournament I will get my name changed while we're here flight of brickus that is smart that's
    241:58
    smart all right I can still watch watch Matt over here here here's what I'll do I'll move this so you can actually okay thanks Justin see what's going on a little bit whoa oh quick
    242:14
    drain and I I think Elizabeth will join us here in a little bit too we just have such a great commentating team over the course of the weekend we're so and me great including especially you all right there we go I'm getting I'm not I'm knocking the rust off Patrick wants to see more Diamond lady and more Jason gwy okay all right certainly more Diamond lady I don't know where Jason's going to end up but if Jason ends up on diamond lady that'll make that easier so we heard from Eric on Eric's strategy what is your strategy on playing IR
    242:54
    Pro I would want to get some practice games in see if I can find that spinner so I can change up my mode uh this spinner right here okay tucked tucked in nicely over there it is tough to get if I can get in a Groove I can find that I'll go that rout a tough shot yeah and if it's not there I just won't waste my time going for
    243:20
    it I generally follow what what Eric talked about I look for those white shots get my mode started and if I can stack a multiball with a mode especially if it's a ramp mode def yeah if you can make some progress on your mommy as well as start your mode yep that is ideal um this is one I've been learning more as well but you got your power features over here um those are big money yep those can be really really nice those are really uh like a foundational into getting a stellar game and you can collect your power jackpot like Eric talked about that could be worth a whole lot and that's a that's right next to that spinner so if you can if you can kind of figure out where that is on The Flipper those are two really invaluable shots for sure two quick ball ones so far spinner here all right Greg time to close the book watch your boy Preston I love watching Preston Curry play obviously fantastic player very disciplined very disciplined great nudging skills beautiful Drop
    244:43
    yes yeah often times watching Preston is like watching a strategy plan because Preston will work slowly through each thing that he wants to do so it's like watching a strategy in real time true very methodical
    245:05
    mhm all right so we picked up a lock there and activated the collecting mummy starting the fear of the dark mode okay our first big battle here this is looks like we've got some purple shots yep got ramps got some orbits but after hitting that first shot now you have to go to the right oh okay so you got to go spinner now you got to go up that uh right ramp I think don't you okay well I'm just I'm looking at the L LED you are correct look at that spinner award collected right ramp yeah now the spinner value is at 250,000 very good
    245:50
    and now we can see we've got the um Power feature lit here yeah and again those power features can really add up right they can mean big points not just on the power bonus collect but also on whatever feature that is becomes a lot more valuable okay he's going to let that settle
    246:18
    someone someone was commenting earlier that this upper flipper here uh looks like it's been tweaked it has been tweaked in fact Eric intentionally offset that flipper a little bit so those shots that you can make from that upper flipper they don't seem harder to get but it it does look like it's maybe made it harder to get through that orbit yeah what he was trying to do is it it there was a time when you could hold that flipper and pretty much easily
    246:47
    and now if you hold that flipper up you're feeding the right outan so's he's giving you a little bit more hard to do yeah no freebies around here y so it's less about the locks it's more about can you get a safe feed Ace is high two ball multi ball very nice everything's
    247:11
    lit picked up the add a ball there very nice why stop at two when you can have three and that um Power spinner is also lit
    247:26
    now nice ramp shot good cradle separation things got a little bit wonky there they down to two ball loses
    247:42
    climbing oh beautiful shot on the left ramp while juggling that feels so good when you can hit that ramp C gosh that ramp hard yep the Borg shot as it was called earlier tough ramp right through the pops great drop catch on the left while handling a ball on the
    248:04
    right okay uh yeah no oh hi want to type the name in what's that yes yeah I'm ready for you we'll we'll get your name swapped out here uh thanks for having me Justin oh absolutely come back real soon I will uh yeah I'll be back around I'm going to play some pinball for fun cuz that is a thing that is a thing you can do um and you can do so much of it around here in pincinnati a great ball one from Preston there yeah really nice so we'll bring in Elizabeth geki to join us here on our commentating team are we i before e i before e except before SK and e thank you all right intentionally before SK awesome thank you Jay we'll see you shortly enjoy your
    248:57
    pinball got it got the spelling right the first time how do you like
    249:02
    that all right so now we get to see Howard Dobson step up here at 24 points and take on Iron Maiden Pro I love Iron Maiden this will never not be a great game right y even crazy about the band I didn't understand the theme and it doesn't matter such a great P
    249:22
    yeah do you have a preferred strategy on this one um I think I it's the same strategy as everybody else start a mode don't forget about um you know your cyborg uh progress your power power modes yeah I think I take I do take uh cyber um uh um mummy multiball a little bit more seriously than some other players I I tend to do well in that mode and I like focusing in on it and yeah it's just there's a little bit of everything in this game you're always close to something and then you just go after that that thing that you're closest to so I have long undervalued the power modes in this and I'm learning my lesson on that yeah this is a beautiful beautifully balanced game all of the modes can be very valuable this one is probably one of the best modern feature uh on a spinner so you know you shoot a shot or shoot one of the r and that feeds the flipper that will be able to hit a spinner mhm and then um that feels great but if you get both Spinners spinning at the same time it's like quadruple or something crazy really fun rules there was something similar in Pulp Fiction I think too where if you can get both spinning at a certain rate Awards you extra yeah I just think it's really clever mhm I'm one that I'm just like yeah I just hit the spinner like I don't really uh I don't go big as much the loops are scary um I'm one to hit the loops just because I don't trust a lot of the times I don't if you were to practice a thing on this game it's how is the feed from the right orbit down to the bottom flipper without flipping the side flipper that's really important to be able to trust that and if I don't know then I don't want to trust it y I have seen a lot of people in this game flip away just cuz for that very reason and then they end up over in the left out lane sling chaos exactly yeah I have seen people do up a power jackpot there's a a maneuver I I don't know what it's called exactly it's almost like doing a drop catch on the upper flipper as it's coming around oh and it's a way to get the ball it just it it loses speed and it uh ends up bouncing to the left flipper really softly that's really interesting so so how would it it would come in it's coming around you have your up your upper flipper up and then you drop it as soon as it makes contact as if you're doing a drop catch so it in my mind it doesn't make any sense I've never done that from an orbit feed like that right an orbit from a side flipper um i' I've seen it done repeatedly by a very good player probably like I don't know Jared August or something or and they're they're doing that all right nice little tip over get some control he's got um so this is a pro which means that for mummy multi you just need to hit the center ramp yeah he didn't have that activated yet yeah well for the The Mummy multiball usually it's on the left ramp if it's a premium have before they'll start counting your mummy heads don't you have to hit the the center ramp to start counting your mummy heads uh you hit a few uh you get you have to spell you have to hit the cap ball a few times and that lights the lock you know and then you hit the center and then you yeah you go in and hit some more mummy yeah that's what I was thinking so now you get your lock now you respell mummy for the multiball okay gotta so I guess you kind of spell mummy twice but you have like three letters to start off with at the beginning of your game okay and then let's see we got two more for Eddie those being the white shots around the play field nice dead bounce that was a good decision yeah way to slow it down all right yep just goes right in for his little Pharaoh award which is something I don't know the rules to how you get the pharoh awards I have no idea yeah not really I just know it's like lit up their death blows I know the phoh shots the center one and sometimes I get a pharoh Award right but in my mind they're never very much valuable although the game feels like it's telling you it's so valuable cuz the light are going yeah it's telling you it's a big deal a lot of hurry ups are like that he just started his mod drain there yeah they make a big deal out of your hurry up and then you hit it and everything goes crazy and they're like that'll be 200,000 Point yeah you know what game suffers from that maybe they fixed it but Avengers for the Hulk hurry up yeah oh the game's freaking out such a big deal yeah the the lights the sounds it's like oh I better hit that and then it's like spinner for 10,000 spin 10,000 points I'm like what wait why did we do this that I got to show off my Stern shirt there we go oh yeah you got to rock the stern merge all right into a trap we got control that's okay we get some mummy progress I think he was aiming for the center ramp though he has a mod lit and since this is in well I guess every player is starting on the same mode but if you wanted to change it you would hit the far left spinner which is something that some people do on purpose but I never do so we're going to see a lot of fear fear of the darks no I mean ultimately you're trying to play through all the modes any so unless you have a mode that you're just going to blow up yeah and they're all they're all valuable sometimes it's nice to be in the safety of a multiball so acis higher rhyme of the M Mariner is nice Y and you can get progress in your double danger tilt never mind oh Dar but you can get progress in cyborg multiball while you're in multiball so yeah that's nice yeah a lot of times people forget and then it's like all right I'm in this MTO I'm slogging away and I'm like ah just hit some orits just do some do some ramps there's nothing that pauses the power features right like you're constantly building the power Fe this is everything is stackable y I think yeah wait are you able to stack the multi balls I don't think you are no I don't know if I've ever stacked multi ball M balls and your power features yeah those are but mummy and Trooper are separate o I'm getting a call I'll be right back nice dead bounce it makes me wonder if the left out lane has that skill shot
    255:18
    I've gotten a cyborg once after I read the rules it's so much fun yes roller coasters I love cyborg it really fills out the game in a way that um makes I think is why this game feels so full even though there's really not that much going on there's kind of three features you know modes the multiballs and Cyborg but cyborg is always running it's always in the background it's this passive constant thing and I'm glad Keith brought it back that idea for um in jaws with the Bounty Hunter stuff that's kind of a similar concept nice oh okay we're all good okay a little power jackpot those are important just to collect as you go so you can make more progress towards cyborg multiball a lot of times I forget to collect them and I'm like oh why are why are I feel like I've been hitting so many loops yo yo yo yo yo yo oh hey how's it going oh it's going you're a weird looking Justin Masterson hey it's me Justin masteron nope this is
    256:27
    mad you can stack them if you you time your last Trooper lock with your last mummy hit that's right that's actually um more of a bug a unintended feature if you will yeah yeah yeah you have to uned feature you have to kind of just scoot it but it's something that they could fix if they wanted to but they left like having that in there cuz it's actually kind of fun you don't have to fix every bug some bugs are are happy [Music] bugs happy accident features happy accidents yep I really uh I love the rules to Mummy multiball it's different um you know the lit shots aren't your jackpots they're your adall you know that's kind of different ramp ramp I like it I can never hit the ramp ramp like he on his the start of M mul ball he left ramp right ramp so nicely got the ATT ball going that's where I struggle single ball play though he's got his 2x ready I wonder how he's going to utilize it he's going to be careful not to accidentally um start that so he's flipping wisely oh and he starts it so now maybe he's might he's going to kind of rush into something cuz he doesn't want to waste his Playfield multiplier mmy surely not he's so far away from no he's close to a trooper though oh nice yeah but with that flipper being weird it's hard to just nail that Trooper evidently okay he's going for the power jackpot right now which is 3 million at two so it's a 6 million shot it's tough playing game at 125 million stack a few points on intimidation Factor
    258:07
    sure oh extra ball though 2x is is that 2x probably I have no clue maybe 10 million it depends depends on how they uh CED it okay he's close Trooper indeed okay takes a wild shot at the The Mummy multiball it's always interesting seeing how people deal with the feeds all right Hollow the name this is a great stack cuz it kind of requires you to shoot some a little bit more dangerous shots a little bit more um demanding shots you have to clear the drops so getting multi ball would be great right now there you go that should be ball three yep Tri multiball okay so Trooper on its own really in my opinion isn't a great um scoring multiball it's typ difficult you have to hit that stand up in the back this is all the way yeah it's great for focusing on your mode and your cyborg progress yeah so is ball sa just going to let two of those go so he has a cleaner shot smart he's playing smart and controlled imagine strategy that pays off instead of just wildly flipping nice good dead bounce nice STP over how have your games been going by the way I haven't played I I'm not in the tournament oh jeez what a surprise mhm oh there you go I was like why did he I didn't take interesting that was an interesting intentional drain that he did just there cuz he wanted to feed the upper flipper I assume so he could have a shot at the jackpot up there oh I didn't see that that was a interesting choice 3,000 IQ play he is catching up the upper flipper nicely hon nice he collected his soul Shard so he beat um his mode yikes yeah he's lucky to get away with that one yeah wow sorry you were saying Soul Shard um it's interesting I find I have better luck hitting the super drpot from the lower left flipper and just kind of sneaking it in there I can never hit it on an intentional upper flipper yeah I mean it's a squirly shot one way or the other but hey whatever works for you sometimes will say ah you can't make that shot from that byebye well I mean you're supposed to hit it from the upper flipper it's just like whenever I need to I can't and then of course like single ball Play Jesus oh I think Justin's back 27 yeah let's get Justin here not that I very lovely no you're good because I to play anyways have fun do well hopefully we'll
    260:36
    see yeah Preston with the old man train how about that Matt gets to watch watch Preston blow it up and then gets to fire back his own volley here in a minute I'm loving this chat the comments are great what's an old man drain I don't know I kind of forget um I know there was a drain where he uh he just uh well there was an intentional drain that he did on at one point to feed the ball in the upper play upper area and then another one where he bricked the right ramp and hit the left out lane That's my kind of drain old man drain I'll take it I'll need some more clarification uh ber bookie as an old man I will take playing like Preston as a
    261:21
    compliment okay so's back up ramp at uh what are we at 15 mil in counting where did Preston WP I didn't see his score 218 good so yeah formidable playing playing a a lot of the game yep he has his 2x play field flit really interesting rules lighting I love these rules man don't tell I said this but he's pretty freaking good at making pinball games yeah making pinball fun he made that goofy Jaws game though I don't know if that one yeah that one is Su codes all over the place yeah a real tarnish on his good name real tarish on his otherwise pristine record so he is wanting to go I would I assume he's going to want to get an in lanane so he can light his 2x play field for sure for sure and oh he keeps flipping away I know I keep waiting for it to happen there he's got to he's got to Blink it okay so now getting a power jackpot would be good and of course all the other ones and maybe a 3X oh wow this is going to be big if he hits it it's 10 10 million times it's already 20 million time two if he can hit it and now he had it there too so it's still there this mul does not matter just hit that cap the ball hit that that didn't do it okay I don't think he's aware ofing at okay this is high we can just bounce right into it just BP right on over there for sure but what we got to get it while that 2x is Flash yeah there is oh there 85 million mil there you go big score that's that's what you do that's what multiball that's what Trooper multiball is good for right cyborg multiball is not as valuable as the jackpots it takes to get there okay oh that's interesting yeah that's interesting people are like let's get to cyborg get so valueable I'm like no no it is valuable but Power jackpots on the way there yeah imagine if you had 3x that would have been 120 or I was wondering if he was going to start targeting 3x I don't think he even lit it okay so he's still in his 2x Playfield did he relight it that thing keeps going forever it's expiring now it's on it way out there it goes um I think building it is just shooting more um shots just like shots that are like it's not these guys no no that is the that is the Playfield thing um someone asked what kept on building it um meaning the power jackpot oh yeah hitting the power shots hit hitting the the the qualified so I mean for him it might have been the orbit it might have been it might have been the targets it probably was the targets and you'll see when Matt plunges in a minute that there's going to be a list of the powers over here just stuff I mean you see him in the center of the Playfield too yep yep yep right here I love a game that you can get all of your information that you kind of need from the Playfield and then want on the screen y you know completely agree yeah so yeah it grows really fast um I'm convinced that there's a bug somewhere because every time I collect my power jack I'm like I feel like it jumped really big high oh what a drein those outlanes are huge really great try though really great try on that slap save yeah this code's crazy too I I I looked at I um I was looking at Iron Man a lot when I was writing jaws and um it was probably a mistake cuz it's like Rick that was Rick's first game for the software and it's just funny how much it evolved just between this game and um you know the following subsequent ones so okay he he learned a lot so I'm like why didn't I look at Godzilla you might ask I don't know I looked at Iron Maiden cuz this game is really easy to understand actually it is so I was like I want to know how this building spinner works right you know it's easy to to find the spot right in here for sure hi Trent it's Trent aine what's up man thanks for sponsoring again this year tilt amusements is a huge sponsor of pincinnati every year and brought an amazing array of games today holy moly did you see their setup in there oh yeah it looks incredible the two metallic too Metallica remaster that game will never not be fun it's great yeah it's just pure
    265:40
    fun oh yeah I know is going to trap two left they put every single person that works at Stern in those credits which is great it takes an army you know they added the finance guys the HR people oh I love this multile yeah and he's got power spinner lit up and a power jackpot but but of course you asking what builds it up if he were to nail the spinner a bunch now that jackpots worth more or add other power features we we assume I think so probably I think that's how you build it it feels like it oh okay I think that was an attempt at a stage flip and he accidentally flipped bottom flipper boy he yeah he does have these right at the last second he gets an ad ball is that what that was that was an sweet it's so hard to get an out of ball from here on out though you have to hit every shot oh don't double danger double danger not during multiball he see a whole lot of those he sure did he he tilted his last all right just let it go let it go I don't want to see another tilt I know he's right on the edge and I don't want him to tilt too oh each time you collect enough it adds an X okay okay all right thank you for the um explanation bird bird bookie is Jaws 2 multi wall based off of mummy um no but search multiball is and a very weird way we uh search multiv ball is a hidden mummy multiball in Jaws is that right basically yeah you hit shots to get an addab ball okay and then search two oh okay Jaws 2 multiball is a switch based multiball but I just you know there's a lot of switch based mode multi balls like um um blood bath is switch based or is it well Walker well Walker switch based blood bath is uh about collecting all the weapons right or all the yeah that's how you qualify it but when you're once you're in it I think well Walkers is a switch BTY ball so they're they're there yeah they're just a little
    267:43
    split yeah switch hits mummy and but the the addable rule is uh in search small all There's A 5.6 power jackpot there so that's going to reset that's Norm that's the I think the I think the base is 1 million I think yeah maybe it might grow every time he collect well and he's got two finished power modes and three in in process here okay what's a great spot to be multi ball get some more of that progress good save good nudge yep not too much some good value right there too Ace is high if you can stay in here long enough which is true for all the modes you can get good points he has these ramps dialed in I I do not I cannot hit with that kind of consist it's always later than what you think it is just wait a little bit longer and then flip yeah okay that's fine perfectly fine he tries to grab one more oh that's it that's it man and it's so easy to forget when you're on double danger and you're in the flow all of a sudden you've been on double danger for a couple of minutes it's so easy to forget yeah cuz that was the right n like that is the n yeah you just a not if you're on double danger that's a bummer darn especially when you start to get that flow back and you're really feeling it you know you just forget what is this though is this oh this is ball three okay well H wow what an interesting okay so there isn't a super skill on the left out lane that's turned off for this well I didn't see it just then and he plunged it yeah I think he was just pling plung to The Flipper though I know on the menorial Eric goes right to the obvious skill shot which is that spot Target so maybe he may have I don't know turned that off or something if that's a thing okay so he's got his mummy lit again was
    269:34
    wel all right what is he doing okay he's targeting cyborg for sure how many orbits does he have left is that of two I think two orbits he's got two orbits left but hear me out hm if he gets oh no okay well we can just that's even if he tilts it the interesting thing though is that he had a multiball lit for as in the form of a mode oh well he had a I I think I don't know how many Eddy letters he needed was he on Asis no he was on rhyme of the agent marin oh okay cool so that it would have been pretty uh pretty cool if he use the mode to get the remaining yeah cuz orbits are kind of the most dangerous thing is yeah I always find myself draining on the orbits when I need the orbits it's when I drain them hear me out commentator course curse it's not a commentator curse this orbit right here reminds me of Foo Fighters where it's even later than you expect it's going to be and you're going to drain a lot on it and the left ramp also later than what you think of is and the right ramp so friends what you're seeing here you might not have seen before um unless you watch a ton of competitive pinball but what what he's doing is actually taking advantage of the minute between players to let the Tilt Bob settle down and so players will sometimes put that timer right out just to prove to me you and the world I have not taken more than a minute between players well said excellently done thanks if in case anybody was wondering like why is there a red timer around that's why all right feeling out the
    271:10
    plunge Great rule gosh I was about to comp compliment Keith again and I can't have that can't have that twice but I really like the rule where you get extra ball save time when you get a skill shot yeah yeah the sort of plus 5c thing is awesome yeah I don't know if that was a a um what was that a it was a drain I know it was but I turned my head for a quarter of a second it's that one situation where you use the side flipper and you should never uh you should never do that yep you know what I'm giving to him one of these that was death by sling Town it was but all right you know you know I like to write rules that are kind of dumb yeah um and I think we need more the sling is the jackpot you know what I mean oh I was just thinking that earlier yeah because we have a game Argy where hitting the sling actually advances your bonus the the Rando side sling increases your bonus and I was like what if we had sling jackpots sling
    272:06
    jackpots all right we're going to move to far out here's a minute tutorial on how to play make it happen
    272:15
    okay when you start the game you're going to want to concentrate on the yellow inserts that are lit around the Playfield these are going to advance your bonus and also give you 500 points instead of 50 points hitting this star roll over in the middle of the Playfield also minor switches and pop bumpers around the Playfield will move these lit inserts to other lit inserts so concentrate on the lit inserts to keep your bonus increasing when you get into the pop bumpers the 100 pop bumpers will be lit or the Thousand pop bumper will be lit they will alternate as well as you hit the pop bumpers and other switches so concentrate on the thousand pop bumper whenever that is lit drop targets the lit drop Target will be worth 500 points instead of 50 points however if the center insert is lit on that drop Target bank and you hit the L lit drop Target it will be worth 5,000 points hitting all drop targets down on any ball other than ball five will light double Bonus Ball five double bonus will be awarded for you coming down the outside Lanes here will award your outlane Awards coming down the right will open up this gate to SA your ball on the right coming down this Lane will open the gate to allow you to have the kickback into play this is a game that is all about the bonus once you get your bonus all the way maxed out and doubled you will pretty much be only going for th000 pop bumpers and keeping the ball alive the drop targets will not reset however once you have your double bonus lit and all your bonus maxed out you just want to keep the ball alive and get as many thousand pop bumpers as you can that's far out okay so it's like a weird Jungle Queen yeah it's like a weird Jungle Queen that was pretty far out far out man so far out let me get the right Folks up on our matchup I got Le what is this 702 78 78 75 it was it was later than you'd think oh interesting I've Had The Good Fortune to get to work on this exact machine and I really love this era of got leaves this one is no ex oh yeah got this is got leaves uh Golden Arrow it really was all right I'm going to find it and when I do we're going to put the right names up the problem with having 41 Arenas is that finding the correct game takes a while yeah cuz they're not alphabetized they're not no no they're chronological order by which one might take longer alphabetized by uh
    274:40
    designer but yeah I'm uh excited to watch this game I have not played nor seen a far out so oh cool well I'm glad hopefully you get to play it after we're done today I know I'm going to kind of wait around I mean Eric likes to turn off the games quite quickly after the tournament's done but maybe I'll sneak in and I haven't played Sharky shootout either oh really yeah Sharky shootout is also it's somebody described it earlier as like basically aball Deluxe with ramps which is essentially what the layout is but the code is really fun yeah I think did Dwight Sullivan do the code for that game good question I don't I think I have this weird thought in my head that that was his first game he worked on oh really yeah but I also know that would be an incredible piece of trivia if that's it might be that correct I do know that he also I feel like the first lead he was on was for either 22 or um that one super cool game with the casino but it's also murder mystery oh uh who done it who done it yeah yeah so um man either way what a home run on your first lead job t to or who done it come on yeah they're both awesome or that game who knows it might be that game I don't me just throwing out these facts that are definitely not real that are not facts I'm pretty sure Dwight worked on all three of those games though but yeah they're great oh who done it so cool somewhere Dwight El's like what the hell is she talking about oh yeah yeah uh yeah this is a cool game for a lot of reasons the the art and the them Lonnie on on shark ohon oh and Dwight okay Lonnie Lee Dwight's first working on then gotcha cool yeah um I will say what what what I really intrigues me about this game is that these targets don't pop back up so yeah you have to maximize the like that one wizard is that that's another game that has thez not wizard no not that wizard a different wizard Abracadabra oh okay yeah that I think also like the attal form has it's called
    277:17
    hit the button I bet oh sorry we can wait on that I'm not that might be delayed that uh that mute button popped on when I hit that uh yeah the um tutorial yeah yeah man is too late to be thinking this critically so yeah I mean we were saying like what I what I love about this game is that that they don't pop back up so you do have to be strategic about them and you can see this is not worth it's only worth 50 points when it's not lit it's worth 500 when it is lit and it's worth 5,000 and this is also lit which is a lot like that happens a lot so if you're really choiceful you could cash in 5,000 on each of these targets so cool which is a that's a game winner strategy if you can do it oh that's a lost rule like that was a rule that was H like that is applied a lot in this era like volley yeah volley right that's what I cited earlier I was like this reminds me of volley Vol okay yeah yeah love that Vol is one of my favorite EMS very cool all right tough we're going to be seeing a lot of them Center greens look at that flipper Gap up and down from was that an in 2 in about 14 ft between these two flippers I hear Doctor Who oh my gosh give or take that game is so who it's a pick me game you know what I mean it's like ah play me it's like yeah play me Black Knight 2000 just all the time yeah well Centaur is in a different way it like plays itself sometimes like the ball just pops out oh really I think so it just it'll just start going well it flickers a lot that's for sure I've got a fire at home and fire will not shut up it'll just keep it'll just keep remind you it's there 24 hours a day ding ding ding randomly yeah it has an exclamation point in the title dude it's got a that's yeah that's right it's not fire it's fire fire all right so we're seeing uh some quick balls here yeah I'm wanting to get one of them outlane upper upper Lanes yeah these guys are key right because this will open up your gate over here and this one here will open up your Kickback so they're like ball saves essentially from the early em area good dead bounce there getting more control let's see they clip that top Target right there no misses ah okay that's good good his gate open and his other all right and every time he does that he's also getting bonus added oh man and this would be this would be the time to be like all right I'm shatting both out lanes are safe yep alley pass yep yeah if you're good enough at it and you can roll over this twice once up and once down come on where is the Stars what year is Stars no where is the Stars uh there is a star there's a star here sad that's it's not in this that corner okay good okay that was close have we not seen it on stream yet I just haven't been paying attention but I I was about to be shocked and abored I love the way you play stars I think you are very good at uh Stars I like your strategy I like the way you use the center post that Center post is great y oh yeah y but yeah alley passing is what made me think of stars so I was like yeah that's another game that's good for I need to work on my tap passing and Alley passing because I think I could unlock a whole lot if I got good at those I'm just not confident with my alley pass yet well I'm a little too confident and I I shoot myself in the foot sometimes all right let's see if we can get an in Lane Top Lane I mean Top Lane we have a Nick Kennedy we do not have a Gregory Kennedy today yeah I saw him in the chat earlier yeah Gregory may be uh have have other commitments but it's he's not here go play B what's it like being good at everything when you're that good at baseball and pinball pinball well they're the same thing basically they're almost the same thing wow lots of top LAN so he's got two bonus advances already which is nice lit for 5,000 on that lower that lower Target oh shaty on gorgar of course yeah yeah when uh Raymond started doing the all shats plan last year oh yeah for the win I was like there's no way this is going to work and sure enough oh of course totally oh man had some weird spin or this game is leaning what was that big old
    281:11
    rainbow hate to see that we've all seen it though all right you guys requested Jason Gwyn you're getting Jason Gwyn oh was that the request it did come up in the chat earlier for sure Jason's a sweetie yep all right finds his way thean from Louisville yeah ah we're lucky enough to have players from Louisville Columbus Indianapolis Chicago and that's just Regional players we have people in from all over the country Virginia and apparently we have somebody in from New Zealand okay that's got to be the farthest yep that's got to Win It California I met somebody from California literally nothing farther than New Zealand I feel like in the whole world there may not be oh sneaky in Lane Top Lane I'm calling everything's an in Lane I don't care yeah they're all in lanes saers for the outan Scoops I get confused too I do too the only way I've decided is a difference is that Scoops disappear under the play field like I can call it I just I just call them whatever that comes first to mind and sometimes it's a scoop and sometimes a saucer I'm better now I think this was a 5 year year ago thing no I still mess it up too I messed it up earlier today oh get in get in oh does matter yeah we want an in lane and it doesn't use up your Gat that's great wonder if the play Field's bow like that should have gone out yeah what the heck yeah that was crazy that was fun it just sort of slowly walked itself back in all right he doesn't have a lit Target so goes for the pops changes the the lit Target still un yeah still drops though it's not a bad idea if You' got a th lit why not and and if nothing else you go for the pops you end up in one of those in Lanes pick up a couple bonus you know what a rule a lost to rule not only about the specific drops it's a drop that is down and lit oh that's something that doesn't happen very often right I can name exactly one game yeah that does that it's Jaws I've heard of that one wait when does Jaws do it it's a roving shot so Tech technically oh it hits the L the dro ones Yeah well yeah the the drops are down and the roving is still going over those which makes a different from the pro because the pros standups so standup only has two or four no two states yeah it's either lit or unlit but a drop target has four states lit and up unlit and and up down and lit and down and unlit oh that's interesting yeah I know tar Alpha has nothing but lit drops because the only way to light is to hit down a drop that will not pop back up ah they loves that Playfield what's that Target Alpha yeah yeah is that the one that's also um elor it's basically El also um City of Gold yeah yeah basically yeah but it uses an interesting bonus mechanism where as you hit the drops they light right because you've hit them and then it doesn't it doesn't add up your bonus incrementally by counting it's really strange it doesn't count your bonuses it counts uh every time whether or it like goes through every possible bonus and only the down ones count oh so it's a different approach right okay so you don't want to reset them you can't reset them I see I see they stay down yeah it's neat how they can use the same exact Playfield and have completely different rules cuz El Dorado is more like this where there's one Target that is lit you can change it by hitting other targets stuff stuff I don't know I think alado's got like a weird rollover you have to hit I don't know yeah it's been it's been a a day it's been a day no it's been a while since I've played El Dorado or any of its variant yeah somebody asked me earlier when we were in there how do you remember all the rules and I think this is living proof that I do not remember all the rules cuz I'm like I think it's oh nice in Lane it might be there's just a lot of nice in Lane again the game does an excellent job should do an excellent job of telling you what the rule is so you don't have to remember everything I mean it's one of the reasons why like card- based games were so popular in the EM era is because you already understand how cards work you know so that's all the less I have to explain to you on the play cuz that's all they had was the Playfield right that was the entire story sure yeah yeah yeah then the little left uh card a little card over here little card it actually does help does yeah you should read that you're like how do I get double bonus oh yeah so speaking of double bonus Nick Kennedy now has double bonus because he was able to get all the drop wow that in Lan is loving it super friendly so at this point he he almost has a bonus max out basically has bonus maxed out one more I might this might be an alley pass to the left I think it's worth you think you do it I mean or does he have one more you can't reset the drops I guess uh the drops will not reset well yeah so you got to you got to in Lan it dude well you inlan it then you go for the Thousand bumper yep and then if you can if you can get your over look at him looking he's like where do I need to go I've done it all right this is worth 500 a shot plus it can open up this which be that's so good oh look at that he maxed it right on the out watch yeah watch this watch this add up he's going to be at 70,000 by the time that's really good that's basically this game's wizard mode it is basically wizard mode you're exactly right roller coasters ask how hard is coding the Pro versus premium um not too tricky but you just have to be really cognizant about the prob because as a coder you only have the premium at least I only had the premium so then I just had to think about the pro and make sure that the code would be good enough so you would start code the premium and then say what do I subtract for the pro yeah or just like there's a lot of if statements of like oh if we're on the if the pro is playing listen for the the boat targets rather than the shark Target for example for T but you have to be like really cognizant like thinking about it but for the most part most of the time you're coding for the premium and then at some point kind of you know really go through it with a fine comb but as you're coding the premium just be cognizant about it um super annoying to test that takes forever you got to test everything twice how do you test one if you don't have one yeah that's the that's the tricky part oh man no I would have I would have to be like messaging someone that had a pro and I'm like can you do this very specific thing real quick can't you just go downstairs and get one you know from the factory just wander in there and just go grab one yeah no no because they're not made yet they don't exist the pros don't even exist yet that's fun it's a picture drawing it's a spencil pencil sketch what are you talking about the pro doesn't have drop
    287:57
    targets Nice Lane over there getting that kick back lit so important that's basically an extra ball when you think about it don't worry yeah it is ESS wor that was fine that I don't know why I was worried translate says you two are killing on commentary thank you so much how much oh thank you how much longer do you think tournament will go I think we are right now in round eight and and rounds are taking about 30 to 40 minutes 4 minutes yeah so I think we've got a couple more hours to go we're going to go to round 12 tonight and then we're going to pick up with round 13 through 20 plus finals after that that we'll start tomorrow at uh hold on 2 o'cl 2 o'cl but if you're tuning in at 2 o'clock you're 4 hours late because women's Amazing Race Final starts at 10: a.m. and it does not get more exciting than the Amazing Race it's so fun watch yeah it's so fun to watch you know what's also fun to watch what pinball yeah that's pinball is the best and boo Ball but we're talking about pinball don't you go piping foosball up I think I might find a new calling guys don't you can't leave pinball we like you too much pinball rocks ite for f exactly it's like all right we're going to add new rules oh that's great get another Lane over there nice I see Gregory what's up man we miss you uh glad you're here and Scott V what what's up man o that's tough train there a couple of amazing commentators and players in Gregory and Scott and I appreciate the the programmers in the chat it looks like I always feel bad about I tend to talk about software a little bit too much I feel like now nowadays but um I got to you know there's some other people that like this sort of stuff well look I the VIN diagram between Geeks Who like pinball and Geeks Who like coding probably more of an overlap than you know yeah maybe maybe your foosball fans just throwing that out there
    289:44
    so back up to Nick Kennedy who had just a stunning ball previously 61 he's not able to recover that flub and he's not going there's just too much on it for the dead bounce to be safe darn yep yeah look at that we got three people on Counting now that are are coders or an IT of some sort that's awesome taking s talking software and coding is always enjoyable all right knowing that buckle up I'm going to lay it all out for I don't know the first thing about C so I'm just going to listen to y'all go so hard coding's awesome I just know when you started that question from the chat before and you're like how hard is coding and I thought that's where it stopped I was like I guess pretty hard probably right how hard is coding probably a lot I don't know oh ah that's unfair that geometry very dangerous that uh triangle of death right there for sure and you take a little energy off each time and then just boom I have that I did that same Draymond uh beetles oh The Beetles there is this crazy triangle of death that I didn't know existed but yeah off of the the second to the left drop Target to a stand up to the left Center drain is actually through the spinner it's consistent yeah it's consistently so dangerous would not have guessed if you backhand you backhand it from the right flipper boom boom dra drain so it's basically here here and then through that spinner down the drain yeah more yeah more triangle like but yeah I did draw Square that's aggressive yeah oh someone's making oh sorry I'm CH so interesting someone's making a home brew as his senior project what man you guys there's some there's a uh yeah I'm curious about that there you you see un University of Cincinnati has a class for pinball and the guy that runs the classes in the expo hall it's aming I talked to him for like an hour it was so interesting to hear huh oh Point yeah I'm trying to I'm seeing if he can take a load off of some of my Dev games oh my gosh he's coming back I would love to know in chat what the home brew theme is I would love to know what you're working on daughter is coding an EA Sports right now wow that oh that would be exhausting I mean it's so cool but I know like it's probably the same idea of like yeah I work for I I do software for a pinball company people say it's cool and I'm like it is yeah it's so exhausting you're just always working there's just not enough cuz it's an art so there's always more you can do right you know the code's never done it's yeah cuz it's the same as like a sculpture it's like there's always something you can like touch up and whatever and if you love the thing that you do you're going to want to make it as good as it can so basically I you know I take vitamin D pills that's what that means this how you make it through crazy okay okay is this ball five I'm not doing a good job of focusing on this game well so it's this is ball five it's hard to follow a little bit cuz it's not clear what the other balls were but we now we can see it clearly it's ball five this is ball five this is important and we're at 33,000 for Jared esman in climbing and that right now puts him in swinging distance of Cody West with that double bonus not enough it's only going to be a couple thousand yeah so Jared is guaranteed fourth place on this Nick's still looking real good at 62 but Cody is nipping at his heel no one's guaranteed last right now cuz player three still has to go oh sorry I didn't see player three than better be sorry you better be sorry I don't math all right but this is this is a run away this is I am play I am in the lead and I need to run y yep you want to create some distance here make yourself nice and comfy oh you have guaranteed Bonus Ball five right right right right yep classic so double bonus is already lit you don't have to chase that all the better to get that bonus driven way up anything that gets you a bonus is worth shooting
    293:53
    there and is not lit for the 100 there's no target oh my gosh he kissed it look at this he kissed it just went up and then right down the middle I guess if had more momentum on the ball it could bounce off of it harder uh question do you have any tips for runting new code for an old solid state I'm hoping to write a new game for Williams flash Steven is that you okay trans translate if if your name isn't Steven schy there's someone else that is also writing new code for a Williams flash you should collaborate and uh yeah I'll connect you guys also if that's not Stephen I played a Williams flash that already had new code up at Trent Barn so somebody else has already written new code actually it's the the best thing is to learn from other people like yeah if and especially if someone has done like you're kind of doing the same thing like I would not be able to do anything unless you know I had other people around me to show me the ropes and teach me a few things so yeah Steven schy oh my gosh Steven well yall are having some similar ideas Steven shty uh is a really cool dude and you should talk to him uh go out and meet some people I think he's in Florida now right get that get that Lit Target there it was for 5,000 right there and that's a good right there pick up that lane yeah huge I don't like it okay either way because he had the kick back he does a kick back but he that Ki back actually you roll over that twice right so that can be pretty valuable oh good point I didn't even think about that wow so cool alley pass get it into the out lane that's gone darn uh I guess he didn't want to risk losing that huge bonus yeah he knew what to do he had a great bonus and he's going to walk away in first place because of it super not worth RIS is so that everyone wants to fix it that's true that's true yeah so that's going to mean what a total of 40 points for Cody web who managed to pull ahead of Nick Kennedy despite a couple of great ball crazy okay I didn't realize he was already ahead which is why he kind of felt like he gave up at the end there but can we look at this look at this score differential 100 points so 100 points is one bounce off this thing yeah it's 10 slings it's nothing 10 slings it's two drop targets that are unlit that's a funny way of uh no one talks about the slings yeah not enough I still like our idea for sling jackpots I think it's brilliant or sling power Awards oh man you spent 300 times you've hit the slings true and the game's not over you did something right it's just a high score for the slings there's no actual rule for them it's just high score for how many did you get yeah that'd be fun all right so we're looking right now at uh let's see Cody's now at 40 yeah makes sense Nick now at 40 Jared 42 Jason 38 that's how important getting your last ball in these sorts of games where you get double bonus for free yep which on Jungle a game like Jungle Queen ball five is the only one I'm able to get the center lane which is is that the only time it doesn't matter yeah yeah well it doesn't give you double bonus right away but it's the only one that you like the bottom lanes are a but the only C is at the top or something there's some other games where it's like double bonus go down the center yeah yeah yeah can't think of those let's go to our standings our matches our standings see what's going on I always love the animations here thank you they're fun to make the uh games that are still playing jackpot Diamond lady Pulp Fiction Jaws I've heard of that one World Cup soccer the getaway Mandalorian and Sharky shootout so lots of choices we just need to find who might be still on like Bal two or something I'm going to go look around and some educated guess about foosball just kidding we're going to talk about code in the in the chat someone says coding is reading other code and making it your own for what you want that's true everything is just a strange amalgamation that was a poor word choice a strange Frankenstein of a bunch of other people's code and you put it all together um but yeah I mean it can be intimidating trying to approach um software for a pinball machine for sure uh I suggest focusing in on doing a very small thing and doing that very small specific thing will teach you so much so you can apply it to everything else and then you just keep doing that until you have a whole game but small steps hey buddy what's going on hey I was so excited when I saw you uh you were here I I me too I was I saw you um over there from the back and I'm like cool hat I have that hat and I'm like oh I know her cool yeah sick you were showing me uh last time we talked was that last time I saw you was at uh nky I think oh you were walking me through all the uh like code updates that like you like just recently up up uh push to Jaws yeah that was I I felt like we were coming out with an update like every other week it was so much fun it was fast fast fast development oh cool we're on world so this is uh World Cup soccer World Cup soccer so this is one I don't know a this game very well either you're killing me I was I can't believe I don't but I mean I know the basics okay and you know just hit the you know ramps okay if you were going to say flashing lights I was going to lose it well that's also true but technically true I actually was going to there's a World Cup sucker in the expo hall and I don't have access to one which is why I don't know the rules very well so I was like man I going to probably should probably play it I mean I rarely see it but oh Dr dude has a mystery award that gives you 10,000 Point slingshots so super slings I mean there's games that have super slings yeah okay um Iron Maiden does Jaws
    300:03
    does um I'm biased and only know lwin games apparently uh I think other games
    300:11
    too oh yeah so okay so how'd she start this multiball right yeah you know the multiball starts try I think when you're at the game it's super obvious I can say things that I'm not sure on but I've learned in the commentary Booth don't say things that you're not sure on and if you do preface it so if I were to guess yeah I think it's either the right ramp or the left ramp or the center Buck thing at the top that's she's going to tilt I think I'm sensing a tilt she just double dangered she just double dangered this game is the90s yeah people love this game I have heard people love this game but like you said I have no access to one either so I don't know anything about it there it is oh she's I didn't even need to see the screen she's not going to be happy about that but she did well well well she ran off with it she's doing okay but oh no I'm sorry I'm looking I I'm missing uh Cody's is that uh Lewis score there thank you for switching out the Right Scoop oh yeah obviously it's the right scoop yeah thank you it's actually the Right Scoop when you're at the game you can read the play field and that's cheating though wait I guess kind of
    301:31
    help so if I were him I would uh do that right there that's that's your first shoot the goal okay first objective and then yep hit the ramps M man you know I'm looking around at every single game here that I know so much about and then there's this game yeah oh weird Where Stars although I guess it's a little refreshing um although I love playing EMS I have a little bit trouble on commentating them because I lose focus too quickly okay there's know there's not enough going on compared to the modern games that have too much going on oh there's yeah sometimes way too
    302:15
    we're pinball players we can't read so actually true whenever someone's like oh we'll just put instructions on the screen I'm like who's going to read that it's true read it I'm I I I want to but I know I don't it's it's why um audio is so important it's true cuz it's like shoot the right I'm also a person that plays with headphones on as well so I'm just yeah there's no saving anybody if I don't somehow have it memorized then I'm I'm and that's just not
    302:48
    possible all oh yes we're in the era where jet bumpers were the thing to call like are you a pops or a Jets person uh ooh I think Jets oh really okay yeah what are you or Pops Pops Pops yeah but like this is this era of Bali I feel like Williams as well always called them jet first yeah I think that's why I'm a jet because I've just played a lot of O wow 25 million sweet oh oh you know when you're a jet you're a jet all the way so oh excellent excellent excellent so he's getting uh them Awards right there he's wanting to hit another one of them shots right there another 15 million wow wow wow wow wow is this Eric's World Cup I don't think so I don't I don't remember seeing the World Cup in his basement I don't either and he's addicted to the weird Premier got Le games so he does like doesn't fit
    303:55
    his wow that that we need the goal we uh we don't want the other we don't want to hit the oh 5 billion yeah he's got five billion right there I don't even know if he knows the rules of this game yeah that was fantastic there you go so you still in the tournament is this a knockout what is this uh it's not a knockout um so it is um it's Mega Match play right now I think we're trying to do I believe it's 12 rounds uh I think this is round seven or eight right now interesting usually Friday is the uh The Knockout ah so interesting so I'm still in I'm uh I'm hovering right around the cut off so we'll see what happens man his entire last ball wasn't even needed he was no not at all I had a walk off but just you know so this is yeah how you doing I'm doing okay oh there is a cut off there is a cut off but uh so it's going to be 12 rounds today and I think eight rounds tomorrow so 20 rounds and then uh finals I think are Sunday uh there might be like an A and B finals or something I that I don't know usually there is yeah so we'll see we'll see what happens well it's a lot and I'm uh I did the women's today as well qualified for finals there so that starts at 10: in the morning tomorrow so I've got to early I that's past my uh bedtime right I go to sleep at that hour I mean this is probably going to run uh pretty pretty oh my gosh it's already 10 o' it's already 10 o'cl we just finished round eight of 12 so we got four rounds to go we'll see what happens it's a lot of Pinball it's a lot of pinball glad glad I don't I'm there's all kind of fun stuff here too I've heard about there's uh home brew here there's like a bunch of other games I have barely even walked in there yeah I I feel like I I've been in there for a few hours and I still haven't felt like I saw everything but I think Eric invited some like new folks I saw uh um I met the people that have the greatest showman that was I I heard about that but I haven't seen it yet I'm really excited to check it out they won Best in Show at Pin or um pinball Expo really mhm and um I didn't get to play it there so I was so like excited to see it here it's a really pretty game it's a it's a whirlwind reskin okay okay but the people that made it are so sweet the the woman coded it and apparently she had never coded before until like July of this year crazy yeah so she um taught herself how to do it it's this um she works the it's like some pinball module thing it's written in Python and I I've heard other people use it so it must be um pretty easy to use if she was able to pick it up that quickly and she's got yeah it's a very basic rule set but like you know it's on Whirlwind so it's going to be fun to shoot anyway and the lights look really pretty it's a pretty game it's really pretty cool yeah yeah amazing I'm happy to I'm looking forward to checking it out yeah I was impressed yeah if there's anybody in the chat that's thinking about coming down absolutely do it um it's just like more more pinball than you can possibly believe um in a good way yeah oh what home brw are there yeah so other than the greatest showman there is the uh home brew that is used at the the University of Cincinnati class the pinball class that they have there so that guy I also spoke with I think his name's Nick I have his business card but um he that was really really cool cuz he has this machine and it's he's been there kind of like every year and it's really neat seeing this game evolve and now it's starting to be mechanically really impressive really what uh so impressive what's the like theme or the title or it's a blank it has it's a white wood it's got nothing on it it is all just he's using pinball as a um a uh way just to teach these mechanical Concepts so he's like this is a stepper motor and we're going to make it work within you know the balance of pinball wow and then there's like this you know we have the the um boards and stuff that I don't really know anything about but oh yeah it's really he's got something I've like things I have not seen before in any game which a lot of Home brw are able to do CU they're so they don't have to worry about price of manufacturing like a real thing it's like this is the only one that exists all right it sounds like next round's up uh I'll let you pick cuz I'm going to go check out what round I'm on so uh I feel like someone wanted to see something
    308:45
    okay if you want to see something in particular chat you can um say it and I'll remember it for next time maybe I think somebody's wish maybe granted we're going to Stars oh good wait am I the one that wanted Stars yeah it's your wish okay cool here's how to play
    309:06
    stars all right everybody let's learn some Stern Stars at the start of the game you will have one random star completed for you as you can see here the pink star is completed for us bam collect all four other stars to juice the right spinner for a thousand a spin Crush through the spinner here for a th a rip also after collecting all five stars you will light a red special light next to one of the star targets that will be changed by either advancing bonus by hitting the targets or the rollovers or ripping the Spinners if if you happen to hit that special it is worth 100,000 points it's huge you can collect as many of those as you want per ball also you can hit the center drop Targets on either side of of the play field to juice the left spinner for a th a rip straight through here big points you can also hit down all the drop targets once you hit down three of the drop targets you will get double bonus once you hit down all six drop targets you will get Triple bonus if you continue to hit down all six drop targets you will then get extra ball after that you will then Light special for 100,000 points just like getting specials via the star targets you can advance your base bonus by hitting the rollovers in the middle and top of the Playfield or the lit inlane outlane rollovers that's Stern stars and I saw some other game but you're right yeah no we should do that game yeah maybe we'll go to pul fiction next I like that but I wish I could show Jaws but it's in the annex so it doesn't work it's too far away and I can commentate the crap out of that game I bet you can I've seen you do it um I saw a question of do they do internships at Stern and they do I I know that we had an intern that did Art okay he was she was an artist and we had an intern that did uh I think we had a mechanical engineer that was an intern and I think um we had a a coder that was an intern but I feel like all of them have a connection to somebody so you got to meet somebody and uh take them by the caller and say hey give me a job okay at Stern as an intern how's your commentating program can I join for that one what all right from here on out I'm leaning st's comment no we're we're the we're the intern we're the school the we are the university yeah no for sure you got to find somebody so uh I guess spam Elizabeth a lot and send her tons of letters oh I I I backtrack actually I well one thing is that I haven't been here for very long and two is that I'm fully remote so I don't really have the same um I don't have the water cooler talk right right you don't have that time in the office yeah like all of my communication is a little bit more intentional of like you know reaching out instead of just bumping into somebody yeah that makes sense give me an internship yeah you got it you get an internship I mean I wish man I would love for someone to come actually my one of question they asked it's like what's your Jee job and I'm like I want to teach somebody like I want to I want to like if that is in a classroom or as an intern coming in or mentoring like I want to I want to be a mentor mentoring is did we miss ball one am I the worst I am so sorry guys uh or there was just already a score on it I don't know okay we're going to go with that I feel like I would sense I'm confused though because this is Stars and I brought up Stars and there's already a score up and that's that's Becca lipstein okay we must have missed ball one all right but there's no way everybody has zero points on ball one well they haven't played yet but she's playing for a score that already had a score you know what I'm saying you're right I have no idea what's going on I have no idea what's going on I I hope that was a great in Lane though I I don't why did she start with points already is she just playing around she's not just playing around surely someone looks up right uh yeah I'm just going to go mention it make sure that we're all such a weird thing oh yeah saw saw Homebrew I saw that as well I was talking I think I've spoken with the one of the programmers um on Facebook um I I didn't get to play it myself it was also at Texas Pinball it's really cool to see the games being improved over over the months and I would be commentating this game a little closely but something weird is happening and I don't think any of this is real pinball oh I love that spinner rip though how much is that 10K
    313:59
    20 yeah I wonder is this on Five ball oh that Center Post is so great I love that Jack put a Center Post on um X-Men he said that that's so good that's such a good rip he said that the first thing that he put on his Whitewood was the center post and then built an entire game around that so it's kind of a neat way of going about things if you ask
    314:27
    me yeah I think he gestu realized what was going on so but it's okay we get to chat more chat hello welcome to pincinnati after dark it is 10:20 here I have a dried piece of mango I hope that's not bothersome to yall if it is I'll stop eating it yeah it's super sucks that it doesn't count but it kind of is on everybody at the game to be aware of what's going on unfortunately yeah what they figured out if you guys hadn't already decoded this is that they were playing a one player game yeah and so uh they did get a TD involved Trent Augustine is a TD and yeah you just got to restart the game it's just going to restart the game Y no one's CED though it's it's everybody's it's everybody's uh it's kind of a shared flub yeah yeah what's a word when you all have the same culpability yeah but like a regular word culpability like a people word like an English one you know what I mean everybody's equally uh burdened by it I can't think of word at fault no I can't even almost think but it doesn't matter we're watching Stars unfortunately he had a great ball I know he was ripping that spinner dude now Joe is just going to show us again how it's done a little bit more practice oh he gets one one switch there but you had to lit for like three three stars yeah that's the thing right for those who are watching tutorial is that as you collect stars that spinner becomes more and more and more away that spinner is so late it is there you go no it's gone okay look at that it just snuck right by this is the width of a pinball right here andow it consistently just yeah I mean center training on Stars H yeah who knew what how about Chelsea pomoy she put in an extraordinary effort today at the end of the women's qualifying it was her and Laura suac had a showdown on big game to decide who was going to make it wow and she had a really tough basically a house ball on ball one and two okay she just backhanded the top targets oh nice is that even possible ni Center that was the right decision though exctly what to do watch this replay she lets lets the post do its thing and then it just didn't quite get to the left flipper it just sort of faded this is Ken Gunther I haven't seen Ken on stream yet tonight but he is a another staple of the Greater Cincinnati pinball Community yeah we love him um and just the nicest guy ever super sweet and my theory is when you're 11 feet tall you don't have to be nice o that was he is any that was wow that was so aggressive and it didn't tilt I think so I always forget about this this game uh RI or Rick um Eric he makes this game playable he he doesn't like to have a tight tilt yep and he has the center post and it's five ball this is why this is the best stars that was a straight up house ball it doesn't matter this is a five ball game it is it's actually a one ball game it might say five balls but it's a one ball game it's a one ball game Becca lipstein for those uh who asked does she have a name yes for whatever reason the match play is having trouble with that today but that is Becca lipstein at of Philadelphia PA another house ball how about backto back house balls on Stars why do people hate this game because of that yeah and that's why you need five yeah that's why you yeah I just love this era though when we were just getting out of em land things were starting to get a little interesting in solid state territory so they still play a little bit like em but with the scoring possibilities of a solid state love that but this even has mechanical chimes in it how how heartwarming is that true love it it's holesome yeah I wonder if for I mean I wouldn't want a short plunge on this game but now I'm kind of wanting to short plunge on this game if I were a two house this game is going through them it's discarding them like tissues well like watch again y great no it's fine ah maybe a forward nedge on that would have saved it guys basically four house balls in a row watch this one it gets a perfect bounce and then just lands right where it started all right so she had about 15 seconds to breathe because that's how long it took everybody else to go let's see if she can avoid she's out of house B that was like four uh bonus advances very
    319:09
    nice getting a little bit too much latal ball on a flipper sweet yep trap it slow it down make a choice she is great close to the double bonus no don't flip don't flip that's a thing to do and I think it was you who taught me this phrase but it eats the ball yeah The Flipper eats the ball The Flipper eats the ball and this is a great example it bounces and she just pushes it down with the flipper yeah though I don't I don't know if it had a enough on it to get it back up over the flipper Scott V thanks for that subscription man good one good one thank you for subscribing awesome to have you excellent and if you didn't know friends you can subscribe with prime for free you get one free subscription to some twitch channel of your choice with prime so uh give it a go that was a good this I don't know what it is about this particular game I've played this one a few times like over the years always has weird spin on the left flipper you need to flip it away don't try to do like your normal flipper skills flip it away we're going to see if we see that again cuz I certainly interesting I'm so curious what what that spin looks like again with the I think it's some of the um like the what do they call it myar or whatever around the slings I think that gives some weird texture gives it a little bit of grip yep and the ball does some weird stuff that you can't really see with your eye but you feel it immediately when you're like I should have had that ball and then it's spun away yep so look at these scores 25 20 25 I mean these are almost identical scores for our first three players you're right and then watch Ken's going to end up at 25 yeah because stars is actually not a five ball game turns out yeah it's a two ball game with three house balls yeah the one at da to is brittle that's that game I I blame for people not liking Stars just because they played that game as love game I know everybody kind of talks about it but I love this game it's gone yeah it's gone so how much do we get with bonus about 25 yeah 13 no it was way above that y 10,000 more I mean the guys these are low scores on stars like this is a low scoring game so far so far so far okay we got two more balls it could blow up here amazing all right okay pull up that all right yeah I dead bouncing is really safe on this I was going to say I immediately thought take the dead bounce on that I I think it's pretty trustworthy you can move the game so much oh oh no one more ball no sweat so let's let's look at what went wrong here okay a learning moment I just want to know I want to know went wrong it goes just past that left flipper it was a weird and it was late flip on the right flipper cuz I think she thought the left was going to take care of it it had kind of Hit the crook so I don't know it was a weird
    321:56
    situation uh-oh Center Post great use he gives it a little bit of bump to get extra energy you do need to give a son nudge to it y okay that was a crazy brick next to the drop now if this was Pulp Fiction that Center Post doesn't have a rubber on it on Pulp Fiction right so oh he's got dou bonus relable double bonus great I don't know how much bonus he has I don't know that we get tilt warnings on this game I think you're either tilting or you're not so I'm a little nervous about the there we go four Advance oh up there now we're we're almost nudge it off there that that can be a really dangerous drain if you don't shove it off of the yep Off the Wall there yeah post trap was fantastic way to get that star H you need the help from the pop to light it can't really do it on purpose good back you're right I don't got theups all of a sudden uhoh woo okay got a little squirrly there and now it's scary drain oh that's a TT oh no he had on that was such a big move not worth it but he had been sort of testing his Lu it looks like it was coming off the post too I know he's been testing his lock and I think he thought he had that would have doubled his score man that's rough yep that would have way more oh darn yep hindsight but dag on man Stars inside or connect I don't know what to that sign up for stars inside or connect I don't want to know what my average score on stars is oh yeah I don't know probably 22,000 points and bonus down the Tilt drain I think that deserves one of these yeah yeah yeah there's certain games that feel terrible tilting on and this is one of them also Firepower do not tilt on Firepower no no you lose all your progress oh really yeah it hurts yeah actually okay I think of a reason actually why you would want to tell on Firepower that was so loud
    323:54
    sorry that was crazy what was that I was me accidentally hitting this just knocking just punching them me punishing our listeners and VI no yeah yeah you saw that face that she made it was like that was a weird thing like it shouldn't have happened that way right like from our eyes it was like wow you just flubbed it but from her perspective it was like the ball traveled on its own those like weird physics moments where just gravity didn't happen right are so frustrating mhm yeah friction kind of doesn't exist near those flips it's weird this is a fun game can you guys find oh he just moved there was a hidden David yop right here he just
    324:30
    moved oh he tried again he tried so hard to get it to come back and he just no ah can't got there oh I get cuz this is a Stern game so if we were just to make him connected including solid States yeah that's crazy that would be kind of awesome if you can add a connected package to these yeah re-release Metallica step aside We're relasing Stars the wizard mode it's just the target it's just hit all the stars just the wow it's just the special Target the wow can we bring back wow please M yeah meteor oh yeah bring back that wow oh nudge that a yeah so the only like that's one of those like you kind of learn when you play this game a few times it's like you need to nudge it way up there like it came off the pop a little like next to the pop next to that green Target nudge It Off the Wall to this the the left otherwise you're going to get that Center and it's a weird thing to think about right there that one right there like he didn't have to but like still you you want to every time nudge off that wall it's hard to think that far ahead but it's true you're making a choice up here that matters down here way down there yeah same on the other side cuz once it's in free flow the odds of you affecting the trajectory that ball about zero there none like you can do a slop SL like he did that was you move the playi under it if you want to move the something else into position right otherwise can't change the trajectory on the ball nice Trust on the Center Post right into the stand up got another
    326:05
    star yeah was a good decision with a save like that off the post I want to see him make it valuable right like no I want to see it turn into something at least go out the out lane cuz that will give you bonus advances yeah right 3,000 and three bonus advances on the way out he does have aing can be bad on this game oh pick it up on the way two twoo lit yeah that's going to put him ahead of Becca lipstein and in the lead at 70 right now a lot of times like 80 is a good score on this game and then every once a while you find yourself in a group where all of you are getting over a 100 and you feel robbed nudge it off that wall there you go dou B there wall Oh yeah double bonus double bonus okay good nudge good nudge again I don't like this nud that was a great slap great save I got yeah I feel like she was angry at the situation before the situation played out she's angry at stars in general oh my gosh I did that once the ball was out in the out lane and I was like the frustrated nudge situation came back in it was amazing and now it tells you to always be frustrated you're right just reinforces that behavior oh the rare
    327:20
    trap yeah that we're going to see if that tilt matters with with ke um Ken here I mean gosh if he loses by 21,000 or something or by 2,000 MH it will be a very frustrating experience all right so uh Ken has been um snubbed on these weird ah Sean my buddy I want to see the angle I want to see it happen oh I I lost it did it hop The Flipper I'm going to no I'm going to assume it hop The Flipper he got robbed it hopped The Flipper cuz this game does that we yeah we saw brutal flipper hop earlier yeah I remember Jessie Baker last year got killed with this flipper hop hey ER oh pinball FX is getting a bonsai run okay I feel like the cool cool Factor on that game is lost in Virtual land but okay very neat I want to see us go to Pulp Fiction we'll see if Eric is thinking the same thing I'm thinking it looks like he may be thinking just such a thing Borg Borg
    328:29
    dog uh Bonsai run uh usually there isn't this year but I've I've seen a bonsai run here in um past years we don't know this one this time there is one at Arcade Legacy that's open for play all the time oh yeah you're right which is kind of cool I you don't normally see an on location yeah no I I there's one at Wizards World in Indiana Indiana um I have yet to go to Arcade Legacy what yeah it's crazy I've seen your parents there I know they've gone but not you not that's a travesty crazy a miscarriage of Justice if you ask me yeah blame my parents raising me wrong oh well they raised you wrong I mean I have a lot to owe Arcade Legacy the Newport branch which is now closed um was the reason I got into pinball really yeah Eric and him and and Arcade Legacy kind of found your way into that and then fell in love with pinball really yeah that's amazing it was right down the street from my University so I took a class I think I told you this story before yeah I took a course called intro to video games in Virtual Worlds we had to go to an arcade and play Pac-Man you did tell me this yeah and there was P this was your homework yeah and then it did actually lead to a career yeah wow not the way you in that class like everyone said it was the joke class cuz it is and you know and it turns out it was the most pivotal situ like most important thing right yeah was the thing that got you a job eventually eventually yeah that's pretty cool crazy so I have that to blame for my lack of sleep I owe Arcade Legacy my fascination with pinball my modern fascination with PB which which one um so I was at the bar Edition in nor side and I found my first tournament there so I had played pinball before and even as a kid i' played but when I when I got into the tournaments that's what turned it up to 11 yeah tournaments are a that's the way to get into pinball like I I think that's what elevates people I mean some some people make fun of tournament Players for being uh what you know they suck the joy out of pinball and there is some of that I can agree to that but there's it also Fosters this I mean you know deep it's just it's just the next stuff it is I I said earlier but tournaments are where pinball becomes personal and C had that class they got cool after I left um yeah and it was mandatory actually for my had to play Pacman that's great no no no it was a mandatory course oh cool for my uh media informatics major which was just like a fun I'm not going to call it a joke major but it was it is hard to understand how to utilize that major into a career yeah yeah I mean I figured it out pinball guys come on but uh yeah I think that that major was kind of created just a few years before I got there um but and once again Kizmet it was perfect you just never know yeah you never know what might uh be in store for you you really don't I was sure that I was going to be a television news anchor and uh oh I could see that well so my professor said very kindly I think you'd be good for radio which I chose to believe Mena had a cool voice not that uh did not look good on tele and then only later was I like wait a minute yeah who there wait a minute wait that doesn't sound real but then I got into market research and you know things just take a different course than you expect and your life goes in ways you didn't expect but that doesn't mean it's not awesome yeah it well it is also what you make of it like dream jobs are overrated oh for sure for one yeah like for sure I mean it doesn't exist dream jobs don't exist I mean how many people have said you have my dream job and I'm sure then you go to work and go oh God this is hard I feel I feel um bad a lot of times like what's the word guilty sometimes cuz it's like you know it's still a job and there are times where I'm just like ah you know this is you know whatever it's the worst of course it's so rewarding and I'm I am it is but but but as a dream job there is no dream job it's not yeah every job I've ever worked I've Loved because I like the core of it you know I like programming and I like working with people and stuff and it's like you kind of have to do that first because dream jobs don't exist yeah that makes total sense yeah take take that as a lesson kids yeah I'm like 28 I'm 28 oh thank you it says they said I have fantastic voice I really appreciate that you do have a great voice yeah I appreciate I actually once I saw what news anchors made I didn't want to be a news anchor that's also true and like the hours oh my god oh thank you my first offer for a job out of college was uh doing all things cons no doing a Morning Edition in flag Stafford Arizona for $27,000 a year imagine getting to work at 400 a.m. for $27,000 I like how you say getting to yeah having to more like I mean arriving at oh my go that's like militaristic that's crazy that's nuts anyway friends thanks for listening to us talk about our career paths um I was hoping to go over to Pulp Fiction and I still might let me ask Eric I had a pretty much a joke major and I landed a solid job surprisingly you too awesome um I all my dream jobs are pretty Great Dictator cold leader pop ah funny funny funny um I guess I said dream job too soon whoops oh no I mean it's good to have dreams just like um be cautious about them so like when you do eventually like work towards your dream job cuz you should be working towards something but like once you actually get it know that it's still job it's still job and if you haven't figured out how to like your current job or previous one or whatever like your whatever situation it's less it it it might not pan out for you for getting your actual dream job oh I'm good thank you hey yeah I totally agree and I think that there are jobs that make you happier and some that don't but the idea of like the perfect job yeah it do it doesn't really it's all work yeah well it's it's what it's you like you're the most important thing about any job that's right and the experience that you have with it that's right so um it's the little things my you know what my favorite job has been what at a working at a pizza place really yeah in high school was awesome what was it about it the oh man it was like it felt like a video game for one but it was like you could just turn your brain off and like you know and I felt like I had four hands like I was just so fast and oh bet and I don't know something about it I really liked I worked at a WR as a writing consultant for a while in college I really liked that I got to read consultant people would come in with all sort of papers and I would read and give editing advice and um oh that's awesome yeah some English Learners would come in and want want you know help with her English it's just like really there's just so many jobs out there that are can be fun has a lot of potential worst job phonathon had a call alumni asking for donations to the school oh worst job all right so we're going to skip the uh intro to this song the game we are what do you need to know you need to know that there's a couple of multiballs that are pretty easy to get to the pawn shop and the briefcase all right we are watching one of those and I believe it's briefcase right yeah and that's how you get points in briefcase you just keep keep going get through your orders look for those payoffs so you you first end up in the briefcase and then you look for your orbits you look for your payoff shots they'll move around and uh Lewis is doing a fine job showing off how to play this oh yeah oh man he's just sniping these shots yep and then there's great control pay off there on the left Y game just it does a good job of telling you what's important on the play field it's really nice o I love everything about this game I think it's one of the best thoroughly thought out games and brilliantly designed games in the last 10 years and as you said a game that shows you with inserts gives you the whole story and inserts is pretty difficult to do and they pulled it off with us mhm yeah light light shows help with it too that's a cool effect on the fa fiction that is co thing a lot of people don't think about this stuff including me I I never really thought about light shows until I had to do them myself and I'm not good at doing them because I haven't thought about it very much sure left orbit oh Center just kidding I guess I feel like the left Orbit's really valuable right now something the left orbit was begging to be hit a bill well we had and we's doing pretty good y that was it 3.8 million yep oh it's always scary when the ball drains it takes a long time for the bonus too I don't know what about that is you just stand there forever waiting for it to add up but as you said 3.8 million that's something to be proud of that's a good score Sean Kenner is no stranger to this game he certainly played it uh in our Thursday night tournaments at Arcade Legacy so hopefully he will be able to dial it up a little bit here 70,000 is a rough start I want the chat to Noodle on why do you think it takes so long for the bonus to appear on this game like there's got to be a reason right you know like the ball's in the trough the game's doing something and then goes into it it surely it's not a timer that's like all right we're going to wait for 10 seconds and then do the B I don't know why though because the game's got a decent brain it's not like it can't calculate fast enough you know if it had an LCD screen I would venture a guess this would be crazy but if it was loading in assets for the next ball like a a cash system oh okay so it was hiding the load screen basically oh that's interesting like I don't that would be silly do but that would be a crazy reason toying to think of a thematic reason is there any important stalling in the movie that's very gracious of you to think be cool be cool so Sean did the right thing there I mean you want to give it everything you got when you're this far behind and I don't know where where he is relative to player four right now but I think he had a lot of catch up to do he did yeah yeah so what is this like what was it doing whole time we just experienced that stall Behavior yeah that makes you think like am I still up what's going on why isn't the ball kicking up you're right the kickout is similar to white water that's animation Logic for different bonus values I mean like it is doing stuff and then it's done doing this stuff and then and then there's still 3 seconds oh no dude up and down this game is unforgiving that was up and down that's it and again that weird wait what is this I need to call somebody okay we got it there we go blame Jos sharp oh I shouldn't I think it was his birthday like birthday yesterday birthday it's not his fault I feel bad I shouldn't be um picking a part A I guess a competitor but really like from my viewpoint I'm like I it's just like a curiosity it's a curiosity I'm right there with you like I said it's one of my favorite games that's the annoying part of the game it's well I'm just curious about it like it's not the worst thing in the world I love that I mean there's so much good stuff about this game you can backhand shots the drop targets that's guarding a shot is one of my favorite Concepts in himall I love drop targets I love that too I love that so you hit them down you can stin it through you cheat Dr Jones style love that the saucer at the top is something that is kind of remissed and lost on I haven't seen a saucer in no this was a this was a total trick from the from the olden days that he brought in for this which I totally love very fun we were also just looking at another pinball professional Ryan mcade from American pinball SI he was just up there playing a second ago oh I have not met him oh no I should introduce you guys yeah we'll have a shootout I think he worked on Barry O's or something maybe
    340:24
    most thank you haven't played a lot of that game I played only a couple games on varos it just happened to be at a show I was at I've not played a lot on it it's hard to get a real Vibe for a game at a show cuz you don't you don't hear the sound that's true the game is probably hot and tired yep that that was my experience at baros is that I couldn't hear it and it was tired yeah cuz everybody been playing you nailed it maybe a component is always on the way out this machine has a known problem with a trough opto oh interesting you know I I don't think it's I don't think it's a real bug because if it were it would be catastrophic and there would be no way to get it back on it's just it's a consistent thing I need to talk to somebody we need to call somebody all right bring Josh on the phone all right we need to pick a game I just realized we got to pick a game where are we going we haven't seen Doctor Who yet we haven't seen bad girls in a long time we haven't seen argassi yet I mean technically we didn't really see a full game of fault fiction let's watch fault fiction we can watch it again I was just thinking a great idea actually we can run the tutorial now oh true you're here all
    341:39
    right I can probably do both hold on I just have to remember where p is in the
    341:47
    alphabet what happened here was a miracle and I want you to [ __ ] acknowledge it let's learn some Pulp Fiction pinball right off the bat when you plunge you're going to come up here and if you can hit into this saucer right here while all arrows are lit up you'll get 100,000 points or you can hold the left flipper and plunge all the way around all major shots are lit have you hit any of them those are worth 100,000 points as well you collect characters put the saucer here they will light up in the middle of the play field here and then you lock in the character over here in the right saucer if you can collect all five characters that lights cast chaos multiball at the right saucer next up we got the Big Kahuna bonus if you hit these two red sand UPS up here by the pops and then come down here and hit the dangerous Target by the magnet you will increase your Playfield multiplier from 1X to 2x this will last for your entire ball it goes away once you drain next up mode you shoot the right target drop Target here that will light an outlane ball save and also light your modes all the modes are started here via the saucer behind the drop Target each mode is very simple you either hit pop bumpers in one mode red arrow targets in another mode this target right here in another mode and Spinners in the other mode multiballs we got pawn shop you hit these drop tets down here to light lock hit the hole behind the drops three times to start that multiball brief case multiball you have the inline drop targets here hit all these down to light lock and the hole back here hit that three times to start that multiball multiballs cannot be stacked next up if you hit the one two three four in Lanes at the top and bottom of the Playfield that will increase your endle ball bonus and also light the Roy cheese Target for a hurry up if you hit that Royal cheese Target for the hurry up it will collect the hurry up and then light this target for your gun bonus which is essentially collecting your end ball bonus during your ball you can continue to build this value as you play the game collecting the the hurry up at this Target also lights super Spinners at both these spinners for one rip per spinner try fast mode roll down a lit in Lane shoot the opposite orbit to accumulate miles per hour and then collect via this tiny stand up behind the drops some strategy obviously getting your Playfield X up is great playing modes on their own is can be very valuable do not ignore those and playing multiballs for an extended period of time can also be very valuable that's Pulp Fiction Rec where oh yeah yeah so the that is Pulp Fiction and that is Eric giving us a minori that took several minutes cuz it's a long one oh no and it was just enough time to see Ken Gunther up and down oh that's always depressing isn't that a bummer also I am not Elizabeth gesi and you are not Justin Masterson so we're going to change that while we're chatting are you sure Elizabeth went back into the show oh dude thank you I picked the best shirt for this this is perfect you do you kind of blend through like does it pass through you like somewhat it makes my shirt look like it's I will actually okay thank you thank you so I'm going to fix our names here so people don't get confused um but yeah you're looking at Pat Pat is another uh main stay in Cincinnati area pinball and Pat and Larry always bring some awesome games to the show this year is no exception so thanks to them for doing that
    345:09
    I will real quick if you want to keep an eye on this one I'm going to do this right
    345:23
    here if you want to put your name in I'm not going to guess this is not Elizabeth gizi Elizabeth went back in to play some pinball in the show thank you yeah got to get some time in I couldn't remember if you were a v or a pH you you are a v Steven the only true St are the true Stevens that's right I'm not a Stan and then I am over here there we go dunzo there we go and now we can get back to our Pulp Fiction boy oh boy so this game we watched a little bit of it at the end there but we got a chance to see the menorial this one lives and dies on modes and multiballs like most games but the modes are super worthwhile I didn't see what mode he got there I'm not sure it looks like he's actually collected three characters already so he may be doing characters instead of modes okay so if you collect all five of your characters which happens down here uh that starts your character chaos and Friends there's good points to be had in character chaos it's hard to get but if you can get it it's uh it's very worthwhile it is super hard I struggle the most I don't know about you but I struggle with this shot right here trying to get up there consistently and they give you drop Target that you got to get down first so you think you got it and then oh nope you still got to work your way back up there that's right here on the beginning of this game okay great yeah we get to see Nolan plunge off here I didn't get to see Ken's ball much but little bit of P was not that great for K yeah it looked like it was pretty quick and we get to play together in the Thursday night tournaments at Arcade Legacy if you guys haven't already started checking those out there is a stream every Thursday night 7:00 p.m. on Arcade Legacy twitch Channel wasn't good B for for no oh great time on Thursdays though a lot of good people yep and Steve it says look we forgot to get some jerky from you oh well I have I have a whole suitcase of jerky here I have it here this dude makes awesome beef jerky I'm just saying your jalapeno was I appreciate it Perfection I I like it too I had to stop myself from buying it uh cuz I would just eat all my product like uh I understand that what's the what's the name of the brand if people want Cowboy which a little confusing but yeah our name is no name no name Cowboy it's super good I'm telling you friends I got some of it a couple weeks ago and it's incredible so I guess no one agrees that uh the the secret skill shot holding a left flipper uh is that not the method uh for a secret skill I for just getting the if you hold that left flipper you come around instead of going to the top come all the way around for the big shot you don't get the chance to get a character but you get a little bit more uh is there any ball save at all on this uh there may be a very short ball save but it's not much yeah so maybe it's not worth it then oh hey Aaron glad you guys are coming tomorrow yeah I mean so I don't I really don't play the characters much I have seen some of our players choose to go that way but the odds of me getting all five and collecting all five characters pretty low because they reset every ball if you screw it up uhoh that's tilt warning oh that's a teal here you want to hit the till button it's fun
    348:40
    y that's great that's a bummer for Rebecca but uh this game is not forgiving man no no one really had a good ball uh player uh let's see Patrick had an okay ball yep yeah I mean if you get over 2 million in a tournament game you're playing a heck of a tournament game this is really really tough and it's set up tough you can see there is no rubber on this post so if it does anything but hit it directly it's just going to slip right by it's hard to judge that sometimes too uh uh you think you got it and then you drain and uh you could have done something there's also no rubber on this post or on this post so Eric is trying to make these games expedient and boy is it working especially on this on this game all fiction of all the
    349:39
    so that's just how it is with fa fiction I turned my head for a second what happened oh he got a little bit and then drained out the the left outling there okay uh but I mean you were kind of going on with it with that bumpers and it seems like the tilt's a little sensitive yeah uh unless Rebecca was just throwing it around there yeah the Tilt is very sensitive I feel like this is one they've done everything they can to make this difficult and wildly unpleasant well that's what shows the best right that's right
    350:14
    I mean you do get a little a good amount of points if you can collect a character but uh I just don't think it's worth in a game like
    350:26
    this didn't get much achieved yeah man I really want to see somebody blow up this game so that people can watch cuz Pulp Fiction in all of its glory is an amazing thing to see it can be a very very long uh enjoyable game it can be uh and then it can be a very short game and not so enjoyable but like we got to see in the last game we got to see a little bit of that suitcase multiball which is super fun I wish people could hear the like big vroom sound when you hit those orbits and you get that like revving engine sound oh I love that it's one of the best Spinners to hear oh it's so it's so satisfying the spinner and these Spinners are opto based so they have almost no friction they just spin forever going for the pawn shop we are currently in round 10 by the way of 12 tonight but fear not we have eight more rounds of qualifying tomorrow round eight more rounds starting at 2:00 and then we can get into finals after that right right after or is that uh is that on Sunday uh finals I think are tomorrow night okay I think awesome um and we have uh women's finals tomorrow starting at 10:00 a.m. 10 a.m. so we don't get to sleep much we basically we wrap up here and then we take a nap and then we come back and start women's at 10:00 I mean do you need to sleep if you have P ball really do you need anything no the occasional uh glass of water that would that would help yeah right now it's interesting too uh everyone's in their Zone I tried to say hi to a couple people and I walked by Ian and I was like oh maybe I shouldn't say hi cuz he's he's getting focused over here he was in the zone man uh Laura pointed out to me one time that if you walk around a pinball tournament and look at people's faces you would think this was a miserable hobby cuz everybody looks so intense yes and it looks like nobody's having fun it is the opposite though everyone's having fun uh people talk to each other and it's not very it's not very Stern at all that was what I worried about playing pinball I started playing maybe two years ago and I was like I'll try a tournament everyone's nice uh but yeah when you're playing though it's very very serious game it is and everybody's super nice to each other and nobody you know gets it's too intense but while you're playing you're playing people get serious about it all right needs to do something
    352:52
    here I mean with the bumpers I would say uh this is probably is this a bad game or an even game for without those bumpers on on Paul fiction I mean yeah this is pretty low yeah I think I think we I would expect to see most games for tournament play to be in the in the 500s or so um we're are not seeing that here just a rough game all around it's a rough game all around yeah there aren't easy points in this game but generally you'll see in a tournament like this you'll get up in the at least 3 to 500,000 range that is the only good thing about trying for a character if you're not going for all five yeah is it 100,000 yeah you get an immediate award is it it might be 100 which is a nice chunk especially if if if anyone could get that that would change the game yep yeah completely right right now it's anybody's game and it you don't have to go that far to get it so so this multiball for instance that he's working on that could be it if he gets that briefcase going or the pawn shop going that could be it solidy oh curse of the commentator right there we drove him right out oops not much in bonus so he's going to get to about 330 which believe it or not right now is enough to win this one yeah but it I mean it's still any wins game if you get a good get a good multi ball for
    354:18
    sure I think Nolan might have one or two for pul fiction locked yeah let's see he's got one briefcase locked he's got his second briefcase lit so that's up here and then as you were pointing out down here looks like he's ready to lock there
    354:38
    and again just playing the modes like you don't even have to at this point you don't have to play the multi ball if you can get a mode started those modes are worth a lot it would be more than enough to win this game he gets a be cool couple of bonus points no no worry about risking a tilt there he didn't have a whole lot yeah it was worth trying to save it's going to solidify his last on that H that's rough that's rough he's going to end up just shy of Ken Gunther's 60 that's a that those are two rough scores on this yep so Ken is guaranteed third Nolan is gu guaranteed for the question is can Rebecca catch up to Pat
    355:25
    Green doesn't have anything started but uh she got plenty of time yep oh that was my fault that time I get it though I mean she did the right thing she tried to move the play field pick it up off the tip of the left flipper it's just Pulp Fiction said no and she tilted the first first ball I don't think she wanted to to to risk it she want to repeat that there wasn't a whole lot to lose but I totally would get that she gave it the best effort it just wanted to go it just wanted to go it wanted to go to its
    355:57
    home so we now have two more rounds but there's still a lot of folks playing round 10 so let's see if we can move somewhere else we could almost go anywhere because I think everybody's going to be playing for a while let me see what looks hot we got around here ah it looks like Nick is moving us so that's awesome thank you Nick camp for doing that the question is to what and cheetah we might be do you want to practice bringing up the cheetah thing and give it a shot so you said hit this first right or does it not matter uh it doesn't matter for R in all games oh I'm over here yep and then scroll this until you see the lit match up up there it is yep and then and then interact which would be a right click and then interact yep and just change this change cheah you said there's no order here there's no order to this it looks like he's going to cheetah all right indeed I'm glad I haven't seen cheetah tonight so this is a really good choice I don't know cheetah well so you'll have to explain a little bit I cannot find for the life of me
    357:08
    cheetah right here there it is go there it is Michael trett is to n wonger Lindsey Rogers and Tim brightenstein
    357:16
    great thank you so much so that's it that's how you do that oh okay yeah all right now I know yeah now you know not too bad um so we have players now here from Cincinnati area and from Cleveland we've got a couple of them David Yap what's up baby I'll be please you want to come sit tomorrow oh okay let's do it let's do it maybe we are not on cheetah oh what happened I don't know I loved our plan it seemed like a good plan going oh I'm not sure where he's going now did he get kicked off at cheetah I don't know they on ball too maybe maybe the competitors are like get out of here with that they voted a no well guys you don't get to learn about cheetah yet we'll find out what we're bad girls who are we going no not who Jack I guess we're going to Jackpot yeah it looks like it I'm guessing all right you want to hunt down jackpot let's jackpot yep all right what I didn't interact that's it nice I is the challenging part is finding uh there we go oh this is going to be a good group who we got here look at this for some Jared August Mark row Jack Nebraska and Trent augenstein and I should point out marro New Zealand oh wow so I think he wins for farthest trip he probably was in the states anyway but still don't think you can get further than that can you that's about as far as you can go on the planet that's pretty cool yeah that is pretty cool coming out just for pinball I want to like have him interview just so I can hear his accent cuz I love the Kiwi accent I just love any good accent uh New Zealand Australian uh give me a good one
    358:55
    yeah I heard I learned from a New Zealander one phrase in Australian which is I'd like to thank all the sheers for sitting up this spread the sheers for sitting up this spread for sitting up this spread I don't know how they arrived on that as the phrase but that's what they taught me I'm not sure what a shei is but it sounds nice I think it's like a woman I don't know you guys if any of you from Australia you can tell me oh so this is a um a different version of pinbot then I take it uh yeah so this is part of this is the third in the pinbot trilogy it's exactly right oh so it's laid out a little bit like pinbot right where you've got the visor and the spot targets but it also has this casino element going and the big thing about this game thank thank you for doing that Nick the big thing about this game is there's a whole special Mode called Casino run that if Jack Nebraska for instance can complete all of the mini games over here he gets to go on this casino run and in Casino run you get to wager on whether or not you can continue so like really yeah so if you think you're doing pretty good you feel like luck is on your side you can wager all your points get a chance at a huge score and keep moving and it's a Time base if you can stay alive no so it's actually random it's if you draw a bomb yeah it's all over oh so you play a bit you go back in the scoop and it's like okay here's your chance oh very a casino VI it's very Casino which I really like and now you you can see Mark row is Off to the Races at two and a half here on ball two so he's got a nice lead Jack did not finish and get his Casino run there it's interesting the different uh pinbot you don't have a ball save at all and it's not such a digital obviously this is a nicer version but uh it's interesting seeing the three different versions pbot Bri pinbot yep Bride for me is the strangest of all of them it really stands out I can't for the life of me do well on it oh Brad corrected that was more New Zealand you know it's probably because it was taught to me by a New Zealander that's probably why all right yeah who do you guys what are you guys predicting on this one Jared Mark Jack or Trent's got that nice lead
    361:10
    who's it going to be so is it the same thing uh besides those objectives up there that you pointed out uh you want to try to get the lock the balls to get a multiplayer or multi uh the words I'm looking for oh multiball yeah no absolutely so same deal right you're you're going to hit this to complete all these colors that visor is going to come down you're going to lock left lock right or vice versa start your your multiball and then your jackpot are in the visor as well as the Rams okay and if you can collect both left and right you can set yourself up for a super Jack I mean my problem with pinbot is it's a little boring there's no objective so yeah I I like this yeah I like this too pinbot has like the Matrix right it's got the visor it does not have all these fun little side games in it it is a lot higher scoring uh I kind of it makes sense it's Casino yep uhoh oh he's fine
    362:10
    so you're looking at Jared August right now again ifpa rank number 10 this is uh something uh Jared's pretty good at playing pinball so you get to see some neat pinball playing from this group but don't let Mark confuse you here don't let his ifpa rank lie to you he apparently is real good at pinball I would say so he's sitting at 41 points and playing some of the best players in the region if not the country if not the world it's got a great that's why I love pinball is it's not just uh you can have a a kid who's barely played pinball com in have a really good night uh it's really anyone's game till it's over yep now he tried oh he ends up tilting out he tried to take advantage of that Center Post you'll see on the replay it bounces down hard and it just it didn't come back he he tried to give it that extra energy it just didn't so do these not have rubbers on there I can't quite see this one does it does it didn't do much for it didn't do much for him it just kind of stopped although if it is a rubber that's a very small little thing might be just a little protector of some sort it could be all right let's see if he can add to it and when you get players like Trent and Jared in the mix you are looking at some huge Whopper points for a big tournament we have 140 players uh you know amazing I'm looking at Steve Bowen over here Raymond Davidson's right there Jared you're watching right now play incredible Whopper points on the line absolutely abolutely and it's I think that the match play said that the potential sort of the theorized value for the first place finisher is 189 Whopper points which 189 just bananas wow that'll that could put you right below I think getting into the finals for Ohio you want do something like that yep which is interesting cuz some of the top people uh they just go to a few and get those points um get up there Y and that's all they need you can go clean house on on one good tournament and end up uh competing for for states in some cases I know that uh Laura suac she made it into women States last year uh basically on pincinnati it was she came in fourth in this tournament and made it into States and that's the other thing is it you know that's a lot for first place but it still goes down I mean the top 10 you're going to get a nice nice trunk yep for sure oh that was looks like we might just be stuck in the spots we were beginning of ball three
    364:46
    here Trent can change it all up yep let's see Trent turn it around player four ball three this is he is the last chance to upset Mark row who otherwise has a runaway game going on so I noticed everyone short plunging on this uh is it not the same it looks like there's that pyramid where you want to get to a certain spot but everyone's short plunging yeah so the reason that's a great observation the reason they're doing that is because there is a skill shot up here it's not worth a ton unless you hit everyone every ball um but there is also a skill shot that if oh my gosh that's the end of it for Trent Mark row with a big win all right but there is a skill shot here where you can get the visor to go down immediately gotcha which can be a big win yes absolutely I'm going to sub in Jen roer if you don't know Jen you're about to she is awesome uh so I'm going to bring in Jen roer as a co- commentator here absolutely in just a few minutes it appears she is walking away from me so she maybe she hates this plan just kidding about
    365:54
    Jen okay okay yeah but it's fine okay she's going to go grab something come back um but I I mean again like that went so fast mhm I don't know how how many people are left playing let's take a look top eight will all get 100 plus Whoppers that's crazy oh sorry I meant to show you the matchups not the standings but we get to watch this animation twice so that's cool we got five left five still playing most of them are in the annex Iron Maiden is the only one still playing here and looking over my shoulder Bob Caldwell is on it so they are on player two likely ball three so we may do well to just hang
    366:44
    tight uh yeah we may do well to just hang tight the anx room we'll see if Nick if Nick wants to move it over there we'll take it but uh if not that's okay too going get a nice VI as people's pants this is a great way to see pants yeah this show is a great way to see pants see this is where I I was telling them you can just put you know a nice no-name Cowboy jerky there you don't have to see the pants that's great it' just be a little advertising opportunity actually you know what you did remind me Steve that we haven't looked at our at our sponsors in a while this is a good time to do it so huge thank you to our presenting sponsor Arcade Legacy we've talked about them constantly because it's uh for for a lot of us our home arcade um that is home but I also want to uh note some of our other amazing sponsors like pinball monk for a whole bunch of pinball accessories and fun Parts uh tilt amusements who is a perennial sponsor spor of the show and uh and of our tournaments tilt has a major presence here with a lot of cool machines Comet pinball which is where uh you can get some of the the best LEDs in pinball Stern Pinball who I think you've heard of I think I've heard maybe you guys have heard of them uh thank you for their support speaker light kits.com it's exactly what it sounds like custom light kits for your games pin Stadium lights uh I'm so proud were like invented here in Cincinnati that that light up your game like you've never seen before custom control super cool and of course mad pinball for parts accessories and uh General uh love um is mad pitball renting as well do I remember that I may not be remembering that right uh but either way thank you to all of our sponsors for supporting these tournaments this is how these tournaments happen meanwhile Nick is uh I think waiting to jump in on Maiden but it's hard to do when somebody's having an unbelievable ball I tell you that it's just going to force him to have it even better oh there we go we got we'll see what Bob's up to oh he's at 67 million where player three here oh look at thato there we go let's see I'll switch over to this one looks like he's solid in second trying to get not so bad he needs quite a bit to get to uh first though yep Lewis bevans is just blowing it up at 223 in counting 20 million point power jackpot is nothing to sneeze at got a lot built up I mean I know I don't know what's going on but it looks like he has a chance here Lauren said Carlos really hunkered down and fought back tonight you know what's Wild we I don't think I've seen Carlos on the stream once no no but there were there were a couple rounds that I was in the other room but uh I don't think I saw Carlos maybe he was on earlier normally Carlos is on the stream all the time yeah I mean we love watching him play everybody loves watching Carlos play but he has not we've been picking games not people and um I don't know that he's been on we got time yeah sure we've got eight more rounds tomorrow too yeah yeah but I would love to know what's going on with
    369:53
    Carlos I just I I want to see the Playfield so bad but he's doing great I mean he's climbing out trying to figure out what's going on from that yeah he got some extra ball points awarded he's got his power jackpot he can pick up again which can be really valuable although he just collected it may have reset looks like he almost might have the uh The Mummy multi ball said shoot the sarcophagus I think that might be maybe yeah maybe's starting as mummy double danger double danger uhoh he's climbing you don't want to lose this power jack for 7.2 yeah since we started watching he's doubled his score almost amazing this is this is just how you stage a comeback and has three of his five power modes already checked off looks like he's only got three ramps and that's going to be a drain let's see what bonus looks like 178 great great effort there that's why they always say you know it only takes one ball that's right you don't need to you don't need to do every three all three balls well nope he's staging and he was staging a big old comeback so now it's Lewis's job to try and open up as much space as he can between himself and Adam but uh honestly he's already got so much space between him and Adam I would feel pretty confident if I were L he's just playing pin ball right now having fun yep he's just having a good
    371:20
    time that's a nice board handing out isn't it yeah awful pretty yeah handing out extra balls left and right 2x lit he can activate that X on an in Lane he's just going to keep building if he could shats that he could activate that X he activate activ Ates it the other way gets a danger in the process maybe he knows something about Adam we don't you know maybe he knows Adam's about to just destroy ad a killer yeah yeah maybe he knows Adam's been sandbagging this whole time oh he's the ringer he's the ringer yep I call that a Chad uh after Chad Hobbs danger tilt cuz Chad Hobs is great it just and then all of a sudden you're like what yeah where did this guy from everyone score what happened yeah yeah and he just quietly walks up there and murders everyone yeah so that's it for Lewis Adam's got some digging to do I hope he brought a shovel cuz this is a lot he can change everything or or change nothing that's
    372:25
    right no pressure anybody speak Polish well enough to tell me how to pronounce Adam's last name could you spell it out for me in chat
    372:36
    perhaps challenge there so acees high two ball multiball with an optional third addab ball and um bonus I think you can add that add a ball over by the spinner on that spot Target multiplier lit hasn't done it yet yep he hasn't started yet but this is a good time to have one yes absolutely I don't know if he's trying to get three times or something he might have been going for it right
    373:09
    he has his power jackpot blinking on the left he has his power Spinners already working already
    373:33
    man my problem actually is I always want to rush especially you need a high score yeah for sure you got to take your time sometimes yeah I mean there's nothing wrong with a 15 20 minute ball if it's what gets you there but I I tend to do the same thing I tend to think I have to get it all done on one magic play one big combo or
    373:54
    something kers shinsky kers shinsky I'd be scared I don't want to curse kers Minsky thank you for that I don't know what the drink is but
    374:10
    I appreciate that all right our Jack all right so he's uh he's climbed his way to third I've seen Adam play a bunch it's great to get his name spelled out for me or or pronounced for me thank you um so yeah so that's not going to get him there obviously he's going to end up short and uh is going to pull into third place Travis is going to take the bottom of the field uh and Lewis boy oh boy ran away with it first Bob right behind so I think that'll do it for round 10 I don't think we'll probably shift to another game and I may bring Jen in now and here let me change names there she is let me change names so that you get to hear from a lot of brilliant people are you ready Jen rer all right going to get the meet Jen
    375:09
    I don't think we've watched bad girls in a long time a long hi Jen nice to meet you oh yeah worries we are gonna you said you don't know bad girls no that's going to be the one we end up watching but we figure out the only thing I know about bad girls is it's very similar to eightball right okay yeah it's eightball Deluxe basically a fancy version yeah exactly but it's like the opposite so like your drop Targets on your left instead of your right and then the eight balls round up next round is up do we have a tutorial for
    376:00
    it oh for the uh screen yeah for yeah for the screen he showed me this maybe I'm supposed to show you so we are going to we go down here well I guess we got to see there's something wrong with the camera uhoh but we will find so I'm going to show you what he showed me yeah so we hit that and now this is our screen Y and then we go down to that interact change and then this isn't up just yet I was like that's a lot of information yes it is and then uh he let me know that there's no order of this so uh this is kind of the challenge just finding out um but we still have having camera issues so we will figure that out and get back with a stream yeah that's what that's what I was wondering if we were going to do the menorial
    376:52
    I'm sh you st you already we're going to figure this out together yes that I I clicked it is it not well didn't work oh well you know what thank you everybody for you know I'm a newbie when it comes to all this so we're figuring it out we're figuring it out as we go okay yeah if you didn't tell me this was bad girls I'd be like oh it was aall muted and no tutorial that is what they said
    378:20
    f did it not is that not it show audio is back okay Eight Ball deluxe with multiball yeah l Travis Lewis and Preston here start of the game nice no it's back audio is back okay perfect cool Hello everybody um we changed a little bit Travis on Bad Girls perfect yes so again I don't know too much about bad girls other than again it's eightball Deluxe but with multiball well I don't think you need to know much to know that that wasn't that great of a start but yeah but that happens you get three balls for a reason yeah exactly it's pinball it takes his one ball right absolutely yeah so over on that left hand side is where your drop targets are unlike with eightball where they're on the right side and then I don't I don't have like I don't know if we can like draw is this Mouse oh I have a mouse oh can you talking about right yes that is where your eightball like your eight ball is so you hit it up there once you hit all those drop Targets on your right side I don't know how to like undo oh that's a good question what you just did uh I assumed it would go away maybe he hit a button down here there might
    379:47
    be super Zack poot hello yesk we're going to hang out with that until um yeah maybe you know what no one's going to even no one's you know what we're just you know what we're just going to keep hitting right up there so I assume it's got a ball save and it looks like there's a is there a skill shot on here there is what it is I couldn't tell you it looks like there was he was trying to short plunge and then uh and then oh okay I know that when I plunged it they had to do something with the rollovers on the top so okay 2,000 2,000 why is everyone's saying is that zero double
    380:37
    zero all right maybe L L I would I would have faith in oh no I was like I was going to have faith in lwis of playing this uh not not so sometimes Machin just doesn't want to want to work with you yeah and it's also I know they probably all play this machine but uh in in this specific spot but every time you play a machine in a different location it's like an its own world and you got to figure it out uh sometimes the shot you usually take does not work on this one no yeah every machine is always set up in a place differently I know I I experienced that with Iron Maiden earlier where I own that game but I did not play well on that game here because it just it plays differently so and you don't really have uh spare balls to play to figure it out no but like we said all it takes is one ball this is true so all right having a good ball here yeah I seem to find when I played it earlier I found success in hitting that right I know we can't draw we can draw on it again if you wanted to but it's going to be so confusing but that that right that uh right orbit yeah yeah gave gave some some jackpot points is what it was called and that that is giving him a big lead there uh we'll see what we can do on ball two here oh say plunger skill shot liks lock which is which is I'm just reading from the at this yeah oh yeah but Preston did have a good game
    382:09
    she's getting to actually play this which is nice said yep the right orbit seems like it's worth a ton uh I don't say I don't I I don't know if it was worth a ton I think was uh you had to keep hitting yeah you had to keep hitting I did I did earn a lot of points um earlier when I was playing it
    382:30
    yeah so let's see it's one of those interesting got Le games that okay so she got two times uh is that a shot multiplier you have a big yeah he like you have a bigger screen than I do that's hard for me to see see I I'm I'm relying on you now oh goodness that's not great yes no it's wonderful perfect okay so yeah that she shot that was a save to orbit and it did move these I'm not going to draw on the screen but it moved those up so it is building to the max now so let's see if she can shoot it again going to [Music] try just being patient with everything o oh she was until you said
    383:23
    that taking a breather this is what I I'm bad at say like slow like slowing down assessing the Playfield okay that that's what you were talking about yeah hitting over that that right orbit
    383:37
    wow it's interesting because uh he built up his Preston really built up his score from that and uh you look at the scoreboard and you're like okay she must be getting close uh but no it's all about hitting those correct
    383:53
    shots no of anywhere where I could play TX sector yes there is a TX sector in uh pastimes at Gerard I do know that I don't think do you know have you been on the floor is there a TX sector here I have haven't been on the floor that much I got distracted and then uh came to say hi and now now about and now you're hang out in the booth I will talk about pen ball all day though so I don't even care you know yes yep I don't know if there is one here but I do know that there is one at Gerard um at
    384:29
    pastimes I wanted to get to try to play Aladdin I know uh my brother was telling me I haven't played it in real life I've only played it virtual so I want to play that I heard that's a widebody too yeah okay it's a fun game I have nothing wrong with wide bodies no some people don't like that's when I know the Evil Dead I believe the new spooky game is is a wide body yes just like Scooby no it's not I'm so sad it's not here all right let's see again it looks like that right orbit is critical in in building up those points it's definitely help help them out ooh that was a good
    385:20
    save get that left out lane on this it is and it just it just stinks when that happens cuz there's nothing you can do yeah especially when it's got some speed behind it and you can see it but there's it it just is what it is sometimes and the way that these machines are set up too you're almost a little afraid to move them maybe like you would do in just what I would say a regular tournament because you're afraid to tilt as well and you definitely don't want to tilt Everyone's Watching uh you got that pressure on you well that and this I don't know if this is a big bonus game either so if anyone in the chat knows if bonus is big on this one I know it's a got Le so it may not be but you I'm seeing Mo I mean uh when uh Preston got all those points it was mainly during the game play but he did get I want to say like 200,000 for the bonus
    386:14
    yeah this ain't no indisk bad girls so can you speak upon that was the bad girls at indisk playing a little bit more tight than this one was it would be interesting to know I will say that these games are set up pretty steep I don't know if you've had a chance to play anything on the tournament Flor but I haven't but I assume uh in the nicest way possible that they're set up like arcade Legacy which is a little more steep uh but it makes you have to play a little bit you know you can't take off for a second and you know just have fun you have to hit every shot and if you miss it you're prob it's probably going to be game over for you yeah I've had a couple of games I know I played Mandalorian um earlier and I had double I got a double on that one but I didn't tilt because I had to step back for a second and then I also I think I did get a danger on uh bad girls as well okay so we we've seen quite a few we've seen quite a few tilts already um especially on fault fiction which is one you kind of got to nudge a lot uh so yeah I know but I mean that's the point uh you got to be precise right yep said that what's the yellow squiggly line on the Playfield on the left orbit we don't know how to undo it I'm so sorry we were demonstrating something from earlier and we don't know how to uh we're not regular streamers I'm assuming no yeah we're not regular streamers so we know how to draw on the Playfield but we don't know how to remove from the play from the Playfield so it was just demonstrating a shot earlier that we don't know how to remove that is what the yellow squiggly line is that is my fault no it's not your fault we were we were both we were playing around with it we're figuring it out but I very much didn't think anyone that was
    388:03
    yeah okay so that would be right orbit doesn't seem to get more Mar bonus said wonder if the right orbit in the earlier version of like the orbit in Vegas or the ramp in uh 1812 where you can literally I've seen most of the points coming from that from the right the right orbit so I don't know there was a shot uh he just missed it um it was building up it started at a million which was a nice where he needed to hit but it looks like I think any any ball can kind of change this game so I think that might have been when he hit all of those drop Targets on the left hand side and then hit your eight ball on where the the yellow squiggly line is where the like yes which is is actually just there yes and that's where um o that's rough yes it is all three and then I think it's a jackpot that counts down to hit it into there
    389:07
    let see hey Louis Lou do you know how we can get rid of the yellow line what what I I made a yellow line oh you need to press the white button over there all right we got rid of the yellow line fig out and now I can draw L to the rescue they are
    389:31
    amazing yes so again very much like eightball deluxe except it's reversed on the Playfield
    389:40
    he needs to draw on I know they they need to draw on here they're over here touching the screen uh trying to to point out things while we have a screen we can draw on and they they're playing the game right now it's Lewis they're the one that's explaining yeah okay so they're over here explaining the game while they're playing it switch spot sh I know right hey you want to come jump in for a h second want to say I need to find someone I had I got to play about two games uh but it's it's fine we're still talking about are you here all weekend yeah okay it's pinball P yeah it's pinball we got some pinball tomorrow there's like over 12 hours of pinball I'll be fine to
    390:26
    play ooh that was a oh I hate it when that happens up and out upan had chance there out lane uh yeah might solidy a second or a third excuse Lou you were talking about Lewis in the beginning here yeah see one of those uh ball three blows it up they just they in general are just a really great player um and is really great at
    390:56
    explaining the rules to games chat is to clean chest rain yeah again the up and out I call it the up and out um
    391:09
    again these games are playing very tight and so you can see there's lots of really good people who are playing and not much room for error there is not any room for airor o that was a great recover that's why you got to pay attention you get if you just let it go you wouldn't you wouldn't have caught it yeah I hit one of those earlier on
    391:33
    cheetah the only good thing about having a lot of speed is sometimes you can get it to bounce back
    391:43
    yep oh wow and he is lo is climb the board so it looks like he's aiming for that left yep that's your eightball target so the eightball target so now you should have the jackpot that's counting down where you need to hit it into that where's he got to hit it he's got to hit it I believe o oh I think into that eight ball Target I could be wrong though let's see that was a that was a heck of a score though that he put up yeah they put up a really good
    392:20
    score 2.6 yeah they did a really they did a really good job with
    392:31
    that is that what it is yeah just like that uh scoreboard is looking a little bit different again all it takes is one ball all it takes is one ball all it takes is one
    392:49
    ball oh no o and sometimes that did we validate on that one we did oh man that stinks yeah just hitting one switch validates the Playfield and then draining something like that oh man that stinks that's rough cuz Preston I I was like ready I could see it in his face he was ready for the comeback oh absolutely I mean it it looks like a board where you can easily do that with the right shot and uh Preston was pretty much doing it the rest of the game so that's a that's a rough it's a rough ball yeah and it seemed to be that that left out lane favored every every yeah yeah but again that's pinball folks absolutely here we are all right so let's see we're going to find what game we're going to move it to or I don't know if we're going to move to another game but let's well yeah because we have one more round left after this one but do you have the mouse I thought they both worked but uh do they mine works now oh I have mine here I was trying to see let's go to Studio mode I know a little bit about our software that we're using so I was going to see if we can pull up pull up the match play that's what I'm trying to F yeah um Mash PR not this one o we are moving somewhere though folks where are we
    394:18
    going we're only on ball two I heard a little bit what he said um let's see okay because this is where I'm going to need because if we're going to move to a different game I want to know um I don't know how to get to what you want but uh I you know how to get no I want to switch to okay so we're going to so go down to where that match play thing was that's lit up uh right this one uh interact and we are going to World Cup World Cup all right so we're I'm trying right now so that I need to change and then you got to fun yeah it's World Cup
    395:09
    seems like there should be something that's a little more efficient when doing
    395:18
    this jungle Queens those are those are thoughts for oh here it is all right I think I found it all right we're going to refesh you just uh exit out of that yep and then we can exit Studio mode there we go no right yes World C here a fun game game love World Cup tell me what you know about World Cup I know a little bit about uh World Cup I know that uh you got to build up your goals so you hit the first goal uh you're going to get I want to say maybe a certain 10 million or so uh then you want to build it up and you get a second one um I like to play it but maybe I don't know that uh but it's a fun game you got a little magnet down at the bottom here oh your magn dra and it's a weird uh Magnus save cuz it's just right here by the flipper uh instead of usually over here uh which is where I feel like a lot of magn states are going to be yeah and so the biggest thing ooh got a double on that one biggest thing that I know on this is building towards your multiball which it looks like he has if not a lock ready
    396:31
    yep yep there's the lock for multiball so like in the center if you want to Circle this in the center here oh for sure yeah you've got five things that you need to collect and there's different shots on the Playfield that you can hit but once you get all five of those you can light your lock and then you want to hit either of your ramps to lock your multiball and then the most notoriously hard shot from what I have heard in pinball is hitting that final draw which is that scoop that's on the the left side the right side the right side right underneath that so soccer ball so right there oh are here yes that final draw shot right there you always hit it in there when you don't want to and you hit it in there when you don't you need to hit it you
    397:18
    can't I don't know who it is either that I believe was Justin's unless somebody gave it to him earlier
    397:27
    okay yeah that would be great oh we still Bri says hello oh did I not hit the right button you just got a oh there we go more perfect we got Carlos we were just talking about we haven't seen Carlos yet yes and we finally have final draw is hard only if you psych yourself out about it that is true but that is part of the game in my opinion I don't know everyone's like that that's PB you get you too excited he can't shoot that shot yep we also have every two goals advances you one step up the multiball ladder and shooting the final draw advances you too question mark Mark spots up the ladder as opposed to getting multiball start through the striker Awards which is what I was talking about in that center of the Playfield final draw is only hard when it's lit I 100% agree with you I can hit it every single other time except when final draw is ready to go and I'm ready to go for multiball that's my problem with Godzilla I love that game but as soon as I get the battle ready uh-huh you can't I can't hit it and then I get tanks multi ball which won't let you go into it and then I'll hit the scoop yep cuz you're getting in your head absolutely we all get in our heads I get in my head all the time I feel like the the players that are the best are the ones that are super calm I was watching Steve uh yesterday play and I thought he was upset cuz he got something that happened that was good he walked away and he kind of did em motion and I was like oh no he's just in the zone yep cuz he was like I was so happy yeah and I feel like that's how Carlos plays too is like he is just you know so laser laser focused laser Los focused can we say that yeah qu the no new new new band name I call it laser L
    399:15
    Focus uh we also joined into ball three on this one so I'm not quite sure what he has done up to this point but it does look like he has another multiball that he's going which multiball this is I don't know because I have never seen this one before which is a fun part of watching uh some players yeah yeah playing Los yeah so like you said not even Los but a lot of these players playing
    399:44
    yeah so he's I'm not sure if this is a he is playing as the us right now this mode is brutal can you tell us what mode this is because I have yet to see this mode before World Cup final so this is probably the wizard mode [Music] yeah I think I think you just want to hit yeah you're just hitting the at 75 million a
    400:10
    goal that's what it's looking like yeah he is just ranking it up okay so it's a mode so then he's going to yep you are the US uh got to go through the cities and um and you light it there's really only one multiball in this game someone says and now he's got the uh slightly depressing thing of when you've pretty much beaten a game what's up yeah so oh you got to start over again yeah yeah it's uh I hate to say it but I don't know I get a little bored and I'm like well what do I do now I just play over I already I already play this game I know and like I feel like that's you know kind of what we all experience with some of the I don't want to call them Classics and I don't want to call them older but you're like 80s and 90s got leavs William right they're not too overly complicated so like once you get wizard mode on Adam family right you toured the Mansion what's next well let's do it again you know like all right we already we won the World Cup all right let's do it again like you know uh Medieval Madness is the one I I grew up with and that was I have that problem but you have to you have to go through it multiple times to get a good score yeah be the king of pain oh I'm the king of pain I wish we could hear the audio cuz some of these machines the audio is my favorite part still though I appreciate how upset he looked um probably going to get him that um but no Sterling we'll see I don't know Sterling's a good player too so oh I was playing Sterling yesterday and um didn't know never met them uh and yeah they they kicked some butt yesterday he's a great player yeah Sterling is phenomenal like yeah I I mean I'd take through 3.6 billion oh no did we do that did we Jinx him I don't think we jinxed him no that was going to be a rough comeback but Carlos enter your initials Carlos Carlos enter your
    402:23
    initials it's your world I'm just living in it um what what's already been done chat is there any machine that you say chat is there any machine that you guys want to see for next
    402:39
    round they put us on the late one so there's not as many people watching us
    402:47
    fail let's do um do Maiden yeah why not hold on if if that's if that's a game no right not right now yeah yeah I can stay where it's at right now cuz I'm going to wait till the next round yeah that was the second game this round we figure out how to get to where actually wait no it might be over here in the scenes I think it's a button oh here we go what so we can hit this we can see uh what matchups are going on right now that was like a fun transition too Iron Man is left which I always want to call Iron Maiden and vice versa which is wrong Iron Man and we're going to go you want to hit the standing button oh I want to hit it standings boom it's fun oh that's a little fun oh man okay so we just saw Preston Maiden was already shown two or three times alien star we got a lot of alien star requests alien star alien star so if there is a game on Aliens did you say next round's up I don't know how to
    404:03
    matches NOP next round's not up yet yes but if alien star is in the next round we will definitely make sure getaway is another request on there too anything but Maiden anything but Maiden yes Diamond lady we just did Bad Girls a couple of rounds ago so we probably won't do bad girls um tretta we want to see truma game
    404:37
    but we we'll we will see it looks like alien star might be the we are just going to have to wait we are just going to have to wait till Iron Man is done Iron Man is done which is in the annex so we can't see here because we are sitting in the main but I can assume that at least one person is like why are we playing what what a rough game so just people button um o big screen big screen I think they're big
    405:17
    screen not what I thought that one which one is it oh commentators it says commentators yes that makes sense cuz we're the commentators we're new to using a setup this nice it is very nice they've got a great setup here that we're looking for and uh but if you're you're still watching us thank you we know it's getting late o we got Eric playing with the cameras
    405:46
    here cuz it's a little blurry I can see that oh it is blurry he's fixing that for us it's Eric's the man that way you can see my my cool shirt that does stuff on the background enoyable you know it picks up the green and it you know Blends in with it feel I'm a little jealous that my shirt doesn't do that but you got to go get a Hawaiian shirt just for tomorrow oh I will I will literally I will go over to Jungle gems I'm sure I could probably find one at jungle gems so and it's worth it it's worth it you guys feel special yes I'm like shiny well then maybe I shouldn't get one though because then that makes it would make you feel less special no I don't feel that special I'm not I'm just I feel like a medium amount of special round is round last round is up we got last round is up so let's look at those matchups really fast here see if we can have an alien star game
    406:48
    tomorrow don't know if we have an alien star game on here down on this here nope I'm drawing yep yeah Eric do we have a game on alien star oh there we go oh there we go we we do yes alien star yes no motorial here we go oh alien star all right so here is going to be a little minute tutorial on how we play
    407:22
    alien if you like aliens and you like Samurai then you're going to love some alien star pinball let's go right off the bat plunge up top you are going to go into the Star Lanes up here complete you get a different star letter and and then you'll come out of the lanes and go into the pop bumpers and sometimes hit this target which will advance your bonus multiplier then you can come down and hit these alien targets will do two things for light multiball start at the Sauer over here and also light up an award on the top Lanes up top the more times you spell alien the more Awards it'll be lit and you can collect bonus Advanced bonus multiplier hold bonus or collect extra ball in order to collect that award the corresponding star letter lit up above that award as well then when you come down to the lower part of the Playfield you have a right in Lane that will light left spin 10,000 this during multiball you can see over here at the multiball start there are some multipliers in front of that saucer it can be 5x 3x or 2x to change that multiplier you hit the spinner and then when you start multiball at the saucer over here you will get that multiplier multiplier during that multiball key is get your multiplier X up to 5x start your multiball and then roll down some Right End Lanes to rip spinner for massive massive Point that's alien star all right everybody that is how you play alien star so yeah we're back yeah we're on it we're just on the oh I know what I did here what what' you do because it shows the uh standings Che that out there's us here we are hey we are getting a hang of this the last game of the round and we finally know what we're doing we just figured it out we got another day thankfully for us to uh to show off our skills yes yes yes yes so Nick do you want to come in good you're good okay he's like like nah no you're doing a great job you're doing a good job so we got alien star so if you saw from that menorial basically you want to hit those standups on the right side yeah you want to hit those standups on the right side to spell alien and you want to hit those rollovers at the top to spell I don't think it's star it might be star oh that's what you said star yeah oh star yeah I did not oh they're together oh wow I didn't know the computers together extended screens like I don't use two monitors at home myself we not do it right oh we forgot there we go yeah we forgot to do
    409:54
    that thankfully they're here tap rollovers are basically worthless I believe there's a
    410:02
    multiplier that goes with those it's pretty lucrative could be wrong the the ones at the top oh yeah at the top yeah so you want to do those so you can get that
    410:17
    multiplier but when you spell alien I I think it lights your locks could be completely wrong here we are not the best people to we if only there was a tutorial if only there was a tutorial that we should have watched we didn't uh before this bonus is basically worthless okay yeah bonus is low oh well yeah you get that spinner R it uh yeah you RI that spinner oh man that's what this game is and ball bonus is garbage everyone says yeah multiplier left saucer get that SL that's what I've literally of all I have been told on how to play this game is light that spinner rip that spinner let's do it all day should be a saying light the spinner rip the spinner light the spinner rip the spinner yep and million light locks yep 10K spinner is huge yep it's all about lighting that's again light the spinner rip the spinner let's go there's nothing more satisfying than hear a good spinner rip oh yeah absolutely love it like if you're playing Grand Prix you get a good spinner rip on that o like Pulp Fiction I think might have the best just because they have that like some friction or whatever oh it just it just keeps spinning and it has that yep yep
    411:39
    hello what's up Scott good to see you here yeah I'm loving that spinner rips Mar had a great start to the game that's a good that is an impressive score that was all from the spinner yeah spinner again light the spinner rip the spinner light spinner rip the spinner light the spinner rip the spinner we need to get a button you can hit oh spinner rip oh there's a button there is oh we should have hit it we're going to press it right
    412:08
    now goes the whole screen it's SP a rips yeah Jared Jared I mean any everybody who's playing in this round this is a good you know for everybody choosing alien who wanted alien star in the chat you chose a great group to be on this game as well um because this is a great group to be on this game I also they probably shouldn't tell us all the fun buttons that we could press cuz you know tomorrow we're probably going to have way too much fun with all of this oh I mean I'm already excited I'm I'm reading them now you good thing they didn't tell us that earlier yeah they they didn't showed us that at all yeah but but Jared as you can see he's trying to go for those right standups to spell alien because that's going to light the locks so he has one more Yep ooh that was a good nudge so he's got it so locks are lit so he needs to hit if you can draw over onto that left side right there that's going to oh just like that exactly going to lock that lock that
    413:21
    ball now how to get and start multiball is just like that how he did it don't tell me but he did it so and he needs to light that spinner though yes because that's going to give him lots of great points there we go spinner is lit right now you can see by that blue flashing light he's got 5x as well oh couldn't get a little bit more there give him a nice score he still got the ball
    413:59
    yep the control we're going to see from the players on this game is just going to be insane so he's got one more letter to till he's got lock slit again yeah that's all I mean that's all there is you just like we were talking earlier uh sometimes the older or the less complex machines it's all about doing the same thing uh but doing it correctly hitting it uh being precise cuz you don't you don't have a ball save that you can just play around
    414:30
    with time to do the right thing nice five times lock yep spinner 50,000 and I don't know if you saw but you can change the 5x 3x 2x by the spinner when you're not in that mode uh so we just changed it there to 2x yep that was a good spinner rip right
    414:59
    lit so again heading up into that basically the left orbit essentially it's not an orbit because it doesn't go all the way around but that left saucer just like that locks and then we're going to see uh if he can another M ball Jared is such a great oh no o that was a rough time for that that's Ah that's going to be rough that is he's going to need to come back with that uh for the other ball it was still a good set it was you know even with the Tilt though it was still a good ball yes it was and evidently the uh bonus is not very very good on this machine yes from what Chad is telling us bonus isn't great an odd he got an extra ball right before he oh so we been told he got an extra ball right before he tilted okay oh it says there's a sign you play extra balls okay oh we play extra balls on this nice
    415:59
    interesting interesting is the better word that I'm saying nice cuz I'm like yeah nice I get ant Ball but you know when you're talking about how great the
    416:12
    oh not sure what happened there I don't know he might have saw that going and there was nothing that he could do rather than tilting save save your bonus yeah could have been it wow we are still on ball one two uh two good balls mhm Jared and Mark see what Jack has I'm not familiar with actually anyone except Mark here uh that I've seen play a little bit and I am familiar with everybody except for Mark fair so I can tell you Jack Jack Jane and Jared are all awesome players um are Jared and Jack twins no they're not twins they look like brothers though you know it's just like how everybody mixes up me Bri and Deborah what's funny is you saw you saw Jared leave and then and a few seconds go by and then Jack comes off Jack comes in are we sure it's not the same person yeah all right
    417:22
    do irrelevant bonus is irr is very irrelevant for sure yeah I do uh it is very interesting on the older machines uh a lot of times the bonus is where it's all at obviously not this machine but sometimes you're just building the bonus yeah uh and then that's pretty much all you got cashing in on that but you know games like this never seen Jack oh you're right he usually does wear shorts never seen Jack wearing pants it's always in shorts with that guy yep there we go another example just no one would oh oh wow he had so much control over everything and then just like the game is just like nope I feel like I'm jinxing things every time stop saying stuff Stephen oh I guess that's what we're supposed to be doing though so oh we're supposed to be saying stuff that's right right we're not supposed to be jinxing people though oh this is true we're in control somehow from a
    418:24
    distance all right all right so Jane plays based out of Chicago oh Chicago okay cool um oh I'm now seeing that incessant on screen oh does it it does but thank you you have a bigger screen than I do remember on your screen
    418:44
    remember oh what what a very photogenic look at the camera there for another rough
    418:52
    ball again these games are set pretty tough um fair but tough I mean you know everyone's playing the same board exactly it's not like someone's got an advantage but yeah you got to you got to know exactly how to be super precise and you got to know how to control and know how much nudging you can do that's why practice I think is very important so you know how how the games play uh which is something I did not do I just went into it cold turkey I I kind of prefer that uh when I play I feel like I get in my head and if I just if I just go in I'm just playing pinball and I'll look up and be like oh I forgot we were in a tournament okay cool no we're just having a good time yeah again he's going for those left standups to spell alien to get your multiball ready ooh nice you're staying that control they have I think a big part is also known what's going to happen with the ball it you know uh you're not reacting you're planning ahead that didn't bounce how I think you wanted I did not bounce how he wanted it to be but I agree with you it's about knowing how it's going to react before it happens but again I think that's where practice comes into play if like you've had a chance to play the practice games you know how these games are going to react to things and it's all about adaptation as well right so if you play your first ball I mean we saw uh we saw with Lewis uh last game where I don't think he had a good ball or they had a good ball one two and then ball three yeah they came back and and did really well to First yeah that's all it you know all it takes is one ball all it takes is one
    420:45
    ball so I think Jack's oh nice also taking that strategy of trying to spell alien oo was a good chots though to light your
    420:54
    spinner see that spinner is not lit anymore on that no uh which was unfortunate it was just bouncing around get control over it there yes okay oh oh all right yeah taking a second he's going through that shats to try and light that left spinner oh there go um which is it's a good is a good strategy if you have your shats dialed in so if you can draw in there o so if you can draw in there what he's doing is your spinner will light when you hit your your your right in Lane here so he's shatting up that in lanee right from your left and then it'll yep and then coming right back up to that spinner so it's not a bad strategy you got to be uh also it makes me be able to say shats I feel like I will curse if I say it uh and I don't want to say I don't want to curse yep oh ouch that's but you know what though still a good score like that's still a really great score for Mar on uh alien star I know I've never scored that high on an alien star all right Jane Jean's trying to prove herself had two rough balls yeah as somebody said earlier it's time oh see I did it again I think that was me that was me we got to keep a SC you just got to not not talk you know we'll have little tallies next to our names and how many times Stephen curses the players yes
    422:34
    so make sure you're not commentating when I'm paying tomorrow okay that seems fair that seems fair I get I I guess I can you pin wiiz 45b for rating love that welcome everybody who is joining us from that chat o that was a tough Jame for Jared as well yeah so yep thank you so much for the raid we appreciate that if you just joining us we are in our final round for today of qualifying of the pincinnati match play we have eight tomorrow have eight more rounds tomorrow this is round 12 so these players have been playing since I believe about 5:00 today so 12 rounds of pinball we're rounding things out on Aliens Char as requested by the chat we do have locks o nope not yet now we have locks oh that's the worst when you have it ready to go and then you drain it's almost like I'd rather not even get it ready y uh and just just have me drain so like yeah just don't even like give me the shot before that so absolutely game of the day what would be the game of the day you I I didn't get here uh we need someone who was here the whole time yes Justin what would be the game of the day oh were so many goodes it's a hard Choice don't a lot of games over uh yeah 12 rounds we did oh we're going to be moving the something else it's over yes I I I am I am remissed that everybody missed my flipper hop into a Lazarus playing on Lazarus playing on cheetah earlier today unfortunately we can't watch them all can't yep nope I guess not now not yet jumped over the flipper and Lazarus right back in I was like I love when that happens and nobody saw it but it was on my face while I was playing that's for sure yeah absolutely that was like a one time I drained it came back on uh swords of Rage or swords of Fury hit the drained came up hit the hit the kickback Kickback made it come back and then drained it right down the other lane like out lanes giveth and the outlanes taketh away absolutely that is pin buffer ooh Pulp Fiction this is actually what I sat down for go all right so you know this oh I I like Paul fiction absolutely talk about it to me so Paul fiction I mean so we were talking a little bit um you can do a hold the left flipper and do a skill shot you go around you have a chance to get a nice score um a lot everyone's going for the characters um which is just it's a little bit safer uh it's going to plunge right up to that top there uh and you have a chance to get into that scoop uh which just barely missed and uh so if you get five characters here in the middle you have these five characters if you get all of them lit up you can get the wizard mode mod um by hitting up here into this uh which is where you're going to get the objectives the objectives in this is really you can get a lot of your points there yeah um but it's also about getting it's a hard shot because there's a little drop Target up here yep and you got to get that down first so you kind of get yourself excited um and then you got to hit it right back again and you can choose your objective by hitting the Spinners but that's kind of a oh we forgot to do the thing again yeah that's what Nick's here to help us out with Nick's the behind the scenes making it all happen yep and we are just up here
    426:19
    talking yeah now we have the names of the people actually oh we get to watch Steve I think I should always be here for Steve because uh Steve power Steve Bowen yeah I believe Howard is the one who is playing right now that looks to be here on ball three
    426:42
    uh two crazy scores here let's see what going Mark big game ls's 5.5 bill on World Cup was pretty good okay I'm for always uh holding left flipper and plunging uh usually when I play it's a little bit longer of a ball save but I don't like so when you go up to the top you lose pretty much any ball save you have I like it where I get a little bit of chance play around with it for a second find my you know Rhythm um so I always actually will use that so now my question to you would be are you a backhander so do you backhand your left lock shot and also your mode shot uh for the mode I don't although that's probably a better way to do it um I would challenge you the next time you play backhand that because because I I very much enjoy backhanding that speaking of that I think that's actually yeah what what Howard's trying to do here which is convenient cuz he's got two characters that he hasn't collected yet but that are lit so that's the one key is like when you hit it into that scoop you will light a character but you don't collect them until you hit them into that if you want to draw it on there that that right right shot right there which actually can be a lot I mean you look at the scores right now I think we have 100,000 200,000 uh so if he has two characters lit and he he collects those they're each 100,000 so that's going to give him a nice trunk of points and that should give him a good uh at least points during their bonus as well oh yes I believe so every character you have you get points towards your bonus okay so we have two balls locked on Pawn um yeah backhanding is repeatable if you dialed into your machine if you're playing yes it is however some some machines are easier to backhand than others I would argue that it is definitely easier to backhand the left shot for your multiball yeah on this than it is to backhand from the right into your show what I would call like the showtime your modes and things like that and you have your drops and stuff that that makes it even more difficult too so so I got distracted I realized that Howard oh okay are we in multi no are we in multiball or do we have ready so it looks like we are about to go to the wizard mode which will be getting all five of those characters lit and then collecting it from that scoot you can see it's kind of flashing ouch that is always depressing even had Royal cheese there oh that would have been really nice to even watch and cast chaos is ready yep cast chaos I always forget what that's called I've had it before but I don't remember what it's called cuz this is a game you don't see very often that would have made a big difference it would have but honestly though the most points that I've seen is starting those modes oh yeah modes are do carh yeah and just hit the spinner uh you can modes are Hefty points on this absolutely and I agree with you especially because for those that also don't know C collecting characters doesn't carry over b a ball so now Howard is going to have to start over at the beginning again because all the characters that he had collect don't carry over unless you get a specific I believe there's something that allows it to I think you're right but I I don't know well enough I yeah I thought there was something where the cast carries over but you have to collect the cast every single
    430:23
    time Mode's good running with um Playfield X is better yeah I agree I mean any Playfield X on anything you do is always going to be better for
    430:37
    sure the copy I played you could backhand the left orbit oh interesting I mean I backand that spinner that is nice I feel like if you I usually would do that if I got some like speed just to kind of get rid of it uh but yeah I suppose you can do it yeah how does hold cast light up um it's the left Kahuna Target see you around
    431:08
    okay the left Kahuna Target wait question that one tasty burger so I think that's a how does the hold okay I think that's that was the answer the answer is yeah it's the left Kahuna Target yeah okay good to hold cast good to know yeah cuz that can be very important on this I mean it's critical if you going to go for that cast the the cast Ro multiball or cast chaos which I honestly think I think everyone tries to get you know want to do that because it can be so worth worth so much it's better just to grab a few characters if you can get them just because I mean if you look at the scoreboard at the end of this um 100,000 would be pretty helpful yeah or 200,000 and that can be one or two cast members yeah that if you have cast held then it's crazy ooh Steven oh yeah that was a rough one saw that one coming though yeah yeah it appreciate the efforts I definitely appreciate the efforts though well let's see do we have any more I don't know yeah go see what matches we got going on now left we got three no we got two we got World Cup and Road Show Road Show let's see if are they going to move us oh we going where are we going we are moving somewhere like Road show everybody I was like we're moving
    432:42
    what oh yeah you can do that sorry I pressed the Tilt button and it didn't do it oh I think it's because we're in I don't know if you can tilt we can't tilt on our when we're commentating so um so we would go over's the mouse it's just our faces oh I are you want to sign up
    433:07
    off well I was like well you you tell me whenever you're ready you know if you oh okay all right here we go so we're going to finish maybe maybe maybe finish up got to change yep which he's going to do Nick's Nick's Nick's our champion and he's going to make sure we get the right players on uh everyone's looking at this like this isn't Pulp Fiction this is not Pulp Fiction this is red and Ted's Road Show game which not as creepy as fun house I like fun house yeah but Rudy is creepy Rudy's creepy and why why are we hanging out at a fun house at midnight that doesn't seem right either no that's when it closes but then that's when the fun happens cuz that's when you're getting all the points right that's when you get the multiball at least yeah but the it's closed at midnight the game doesn't end at midnight it doesn't end at midnight no and what I didn't I assume we're on ball three here um yeah I didn't see what ball we were on but again right red intense Road
    434:13
    show the goal of this is to get through the map that is on the center of the Playfield and you do that by getting miles I believe okay I'm all honestly I know that there's objectives on the wow that was
    434:31
    interesting so so you know what he's trying to do there well he's just working on the objective there I know but I was seeing more of that that shake that happened didn't give anything no no warning at all yeah that was ball three that was ball three all right well good we don't have to talk about perfect yeah this was R Ted's Road Show hope you loved it I'm red this is Ted nice we'll have to have hard hats for tomorrow yes is true our hats that are green so they yes and then I have to get a Hawaiian shirt I got a little Tommy bah whatever color is making this St out so we can see that but this um actually might be one of the LA I think this might be the last game that we're going to see I think it is um so I am going to hand things over back to Justin yeah I would do maybe the commentator one Justin you want to sign everybody off well let's check out the are we good are we oh do we see oh yeah we'll do the sandings no I think this is it that's everyone yeah so you so we're going to hand things back over to Justin thank you for having me on here super appreciate it yes yeah we are definitely signing off here soon but I'm going to hand let
