you you you All right. Good afternoon, pinheads, and welcome back to Deadflip. We have another exciting episode for you tonight on fishtails. Tonight's guests are going to be Nick Campbell, fellow Deadflip member, and Gavin Miller, who hasn't been on the stream yet but is an incredible pinball player, and he really knows how to blow up fishtails. So if you have any questions, tonight's the night to ask them, because the guy showing up here is going to know how to blow this thing apart. I'm assuming we're all going to get our asses handed to us. I'm just waiting for everyone to come in here. So I'm going to just putz around in this for a minute and just hold tight until everyone shows up. Also, thanks for the heads up, Dan. I appreciate it. Yeah, Gavin, the guy that's coming tonight, is going to just punish us. He loves this game. He operates one out of the Emporium Logan Square Bar. And it's in pretty good condition, I have to say. although ours may be just a touch harder Nick Campbell's looking in here talking on his phone and like I said to you folks that are just signing in right now we'll get this started in a moment we're just waiting for everyone to show up Video mode is lit, huh? I've got to say hi to the internet. Say hi, internet. Hi, internet. Say hi, Michael. They can't really hear you, but I'm on the phone with my accountant for taxes. Yeah, taxes! I'll be right back. Practice so you don't lose this time. Yeah, you got it, bud. Wait, did I lose last time? Oh, I did. I won. Jumps. Get in the counting, folks. They're super important. Crap. No big score? Oh, you're kidding me. Last second. Canada land eh what up eh how's pinball in Canada doing I lived in Canada for like three and a half years I lived in the island just off the mainland of Newfoundland Canada it was beautiful up there wild blueberries growing everywhere Not a lot of pinball on that island of Newfoundland there. Where in Canada are you from there, Tom? I cannot hit that fish finder. Mom? Where's that multiball, baby? Oh, Dan, I know it's you, brother. Who else would be named Dan the Robot? Except for that frickin' robot down the street named Dan, who's a piece of shit. Oh. Hello? Come on up. Another busy day here at the office, folks. Like I said, Gavin Miller will be joining us later. We're just buying him a little time right now while Nick talks to his accountant and Gavin's out. He operates machines, like I said, at different bars here in the city. He is at Lemming's right now on Damon here in Chicago, Illinois. I believe he has a very sexy monster bash out there and a ACDC premium, if I'm not mistaken. Oh, great. The U-turn. Fish finder. How's everything sound, guys? Good? Let me give you some of this love here. Yeah, TK Monster Bash is the business. That is such an awesome game. I figure I'll let you guys watch what I'm doing here. I'll fish. Calm down. Nice little fall in on accident. One credit. Thanks for coming, brother. There's an interesting setup you had. Was that an actual physical machine to play your virtual pin on? I think that's what I saw on the cam in the top left corner. Can you hit the freaking video mode? That'd be awesome. That's awesome, OneCredit. At least it has a moderate physical feel to it. That's rad. Made it yourself. Ain't that always the way. Captain Ball is just a bunch of trash. Oh. Gavin texted me. And he sent me a picture of his very, very sexy Monster Bash. Albeit a blurry photo. He was just out teching that, and he'll be here in just a moment. Can you backhand this? Not enough power. Yeah, as close as I can get in budget, I feel like playing real pinball. Yeah, man. Like I said, we have one of those virtual pins here, too. It's in a full-size cabinet. Looks pretty red. I need to set a counter for how many times I shoot for this damn captive ball and don't hit it. Jaded, are you talking about Monster Bash? If you're in Chicago, go to Lemmings on Damon. and the one there is in pristine condition. The guy that's coming here in a little bit, someone that techs it and operates it there, he also has a color DMD in it. My opinion about the pinball arcade? I think it's rad. I mean, if you can't afford a big pinball machine, a lot of people don't have room for it. Sometimes they're too noisy if you live in an apartment. I think it's pretty cool. I use it myself for rules. If I'm out at a tournament and I know I have to go play a game I've never played before, like, you know, if I've never played Getaway over here, you can load it up on Pinball Arcade and you get to get a grasp on the rules before you actually step up to the plate and try to play it for real without just walking up there and flapping like an idiot. Taxes, baby. Who knew? How'd your taxes go? Hey, man, I got to pay them. Don't do it. You know what I mean? Wait. So, we are drinking the Squatters Stout. I got to look at the name of it, but it's from Salt Lake City. I got it on my road trip in February, and it's been hanging out at home. but waiting for colder rainy days to drink it. Farts. That is delicious. Isn't that good? It's like chocolatey. It tastes like that. It's like in the same vein of that like Bourbon County stout. Yes. Oh, it's so good. It's so good. All right. So did you drink some more? Porch Collapse. I think I'm the one with the new. Hi. Hi, Richie. Hi. Hi. Hey, is the, is the, does anyone know if there's a Waking Dead? Is that a movie? Walking Dead. Is there a Waking Dead pinball machine in Chicago that we can go play? Because we're going to the tournament on Friday. Right. We should have some practice. That's true. Yeah, if you guys... Tonight, we can go. If you guys... I don't have anything to do. I'm not doing anything. What are you doing here? Oh. Well, we love you guys. We're going to play fishtails for you. Can somebody confirm that there's something at headquarters or... Or Emporium or something? Somebody's got to have one. There has to be a Waking Dead in Chicago somewhere we could play. Rumor has it, Link... Yeah? Is switching out Blind Robin's Dark Knight. You know what? Gavin. Gavin might be here. Gavin will be here in like 15 or 20, and he will have the answer for you. Richie says hello. Hi, Richie. They also have Guns N' Roses at Pete. Guns N' Roses. That's fun. I have footage of me dominating that machine. Where? Remember when we were at headquarters and we were filming the pilot? Oh. And I just kept hitting that ramp for jackpots all day. That's a tight rant. I have it all. I hit it like 12 times in a row. I'm proud of you. Thanks, bud. That was good. Well, let's play a bullshit game real quick. All right. I'm going to... Winner has to get me a drink. I'll go first. I am not constantly going to do this. All right. So, welcome to Fishtails. Yeehaw! Toxic, thanks for coming. Marie Kelly, thanks for coming. Hey, Marie! Way to put your first and... What's she doing? She put her whole name. That's great. Oh, he's going right for Monster Fish. Bad Bad Robot, welcome back brother. Oh, that danger though. Send it up there. Uh, good luck finding those parts, Jaded. I, honestly, I'm not a, I'm not super familiar with DMD driver boards. I think we're out of that. We're out of this beer? I'll take whatever. I'll drink garbage, too. Okay. If you can wring out garbage into a glass for me. Hello, ladies. Rock that boat. K3V2, thanks for coming back. You're gonna come or you're gonna pay. Erica-tastrophe, is that the Erica I think it is? If so, welcome. I'm glad I didn't say hello, brother, to you. Oh, my freaking turds. Yes, it is. Erica, when are you coming back, dude? We got fishtails to play. I hope Dracula didn't scare you off. There we go. How'd you do? Did you doink it? It looked like you doinked for a while. Yeah, I didn't hit anything until you walked in. And that's where... Boop. Boop. Ooh, throw it away. Derp-a-derm. That backhand. that hold bonus. Long shot. Mom? That spin, though. I was playing Fishtails at Emporium Logan Square and Gavin has GC429 million. You heard it, folks. Gavin's going to be here to whoop this machine. He's going to kick our ass. Here we go. I was feeling so good today. Erica, if you come in tomorrow, Crystal will also be here. And I think Richie, so it'll be the same lineup again. But I'll be here. Oh, and Nick will be here. We'll have four or five people. Get it. Catch it. Jaded, never sell Dracula. It's the best game. Oh, that was good, Nick. Thanks, buddy. Dan the Robot. You can't beat a good hole bonus, that's for sure. Oh, lock it up. Ladies' night, including Richie. Ladies' night. All right, I'm going to go for that lock again. Don't do it. The long cast. That felt good. It looked good. It looked real good. Nice shooting, Tex. All right, here we go. One more. Just like that. That was similar. Oh, the multi-balls. The multiball is real. It needs time to think about how well you did. Just needs to think about it. Call my mom. Here we go. Multiple balls. Bad, bad robot. Please, fight it out. Tickle fight, I'm guessing, is the best way to judge who's the better robot. Oh, Nightbot. Thanks for telling everyone to play pinball. Oh, God. So he locked it up, all he has to do is shoot that left orbit and he gets his jackpot. First off, he needs to get his hands on the ball. Oh! No! Well, you still got the ball coming back. That was awful! Alright, Richie, thanks for coming, man. Bye, Richie! Tilt! Help. Help. Help. Nick tilted. Nick tilted. Nick tilted. We'll do all the fancy sports graphics once Gavin gets here. You got Gavin lined up? Oh, yeah. Gavin's has little skunk ears. It's pretty adorable. You must be a terrible rocker. I can't read that. I don't know. I'm making fun of his grammar. You can't make fun of grammar on the Internet. No, there is no grammar on the Internet. Wait, Maria might make fun of you. There's no grandmas on the internet either. Grandmas and grandmas. I think Nick is drunk. Or super happy about evading taxes. It might be both. Yeah, I'm definitely not evading taxes. I might be drinking to avoid how much taxes cost. Yo. But you know what? I'm happy to pay taxes. Let's get serious for a minute here. We live in an amazing country. Yeah. It needs to be funded. Like, where do you think those shitty roads are coming from? Where do you think all the potholes come from? They don't just show up. We make them with our taxes. That's right. Where do you think laws that prohibit people that are in love that should get married to get married are from? Yo, too deep, too deep, too deep, too deep. Taxes. Courage. What was the cowardly line? Courage? All right. Yo, drink the taxes away, bro. Video mode's lit. Here we go, baby. Oh, that's my favorite time. Pizza fans. Pizza's here again? You just got to... Yo, we're going to have you on sometime and just... I like pizza fans. Nosh some pizza, bruh. I'm a fan of pizza fans. This is Pizza Fan 500. Yo, Nick, my wife Lauren just said to say hi. By the way, this is Joshua S. Josh! Hi, do you know Josh s I thought I put a filter on Michigan people Awesome and you know his wife apparently S family I know the whole ass family about you, Josh. That's why I'm here, but I still love you. Less thinking, more flinking. Flipping. Yay! Josh! Yes! Michigan pizza is good. Yo, Jets pizza, bro. Wait, pizza fan, are you from Michigan? Yo, Jets pizza. Yeah, he just, Marie just yelled Jets. Yeah, of course. Later, bud. Just like that. There you go. Uh-oh. Don't miss more. No. You're not going to get your BS? Bullshit. I always get my BS. What's that BS? My bowel stains. Oh, God. Every time. You got it every time. And I miss it every fucking time. Yep. I mean, it's an easy money. Look at this score, dude. What ball is this? Oh, it's already over. It's already over. Where's my glass? thanks for drinking my beer look at it Nightbot says be sure to click follow for future stream updates and they'll nominate Deadfoot Nightbot is good man Nightbot is the shit folks also let's get real here for a second oh ok on the profile page down below this video you're watching there's a big blue image and it's for a charity where you get to donate money and save kids' lives. It's super important. We, if we ever set up donations or anything, no money ever comes to us. That stuff all goes directly to hospitals, kids, anyone in need. In the future, if for some reason we become partners with Twitch and subscribers or a thing, all that money is going to go right into the hands of kids. We don't want anything to do with that cash. High five, dude. Nice work. You know, you set up a button, but what people actually have to do is click the button. Click the button. And give the money to the kids. Looking at the button doesn't do anything. It makes you feel bad. Making a button didn't do much. We need you to create a button. And I made that button. I made that button. Well, you did a lot. You made a really pretty button. Thank you. But, you know, the kids need more than that. Yeah. I see a graph forming. Booze consumption and actual play. Yes. What? Are we playing? For the children! This one's for the kids. I think here's what we do. I think, first off, the screen went dark for some reason. Oh, no. Oh, no, we're back. Hey, folks. Before Gavin gets here, we either play a small tournament or... Yeah. People told us yesterday that their way to get super high scores was just to multiball all day, right? Okay. We obviously suck at multiball. Yes. So why don't we play a game where we do nothing but multiball? One credit. Thanks for the follow. We do nothing but multiball. Points don't matter. No, I mean, points matter, but we don't actively go for anything else. We're just trying to get casters club and jackpots. We're going to practice getting good multiballs. Ready? For the children! Multiballs for the children! Ah, see what I did? Ah, bad, bad robot. Yeah, we're using extra life. If we can join a team after the fact, that's awesome. We might do that. Wait, how many multiballs did you get? I got zero multiballs. How many multiballs? Dang it. I haven't started. I haven't started. This is going to be a... Bad robot. Bad robot. Okay, that's you, Josh. Cool. Yay! Yay! Does getting the center captive ball... Is that a multiball? Yeah. I think we should focus on nailing... Caster club. Well, I'd like to get a hold of the ball first. Because that's how the big dudes get the big scores, too, is they just get multiball, and then triple jackpot like 100 million. Now, when you say big dudes... I mean the good pinball players. The ones that don't do that all day. You know what? Our scores are exactly the same. I'm not saying you're bad. I'm saying we're bad. Bad, bad robot. multiball is... It's been around for a while. It's a way of getting multiple balls on the play field so that your score starts exploding really quick. It usually involves locking up your current ball a few times. On this game, you see the three flashing squares over here on the middle right of the playfield? If you get the ball in there three times it spits three balls out at you and then you just start racking up your points Oh my god we suck Need more microphones We suck Comments to you live You guys need... Yes, we need someone to read... Erica, come read this stuff to us, please. Yeah. So you don't have to keep looking over. Sounds like a Richie job. Man, I wish Richie was here for that. That was a good dig. If you have this hooked up to there, you can actually run two microphones. But won't you pick me up? Yeah, but I don't think we'll cancel each other out or anything. You don't think it'll be echoey and weird? I'm not saying we try it now. I'm saying maybe tomorrow. We'll run a test for tomorrow. That works for me. Okay. I think, I mean, once there's like four people and I'm back there talking with somebody else while you're playing, then I can go like interview other people. Oh, totally. Or something. I don't know. You know what I'm feeling? I'm saying it's all going through the same thing with the same sync and it's not two separate boxes. Oh, because it's going right to the computer with that sync. And I think it'll sync up real good. Yeah. Like this. Did you all hear that? Did you hear Nick make fun of me just now? Called me an asshole. No, I was, um, I wasn't going to give you the beer. Well, here's the deal. A beer sounds great, but so does turning the air conditioning on. Are you out? Well, I can't take my hoodie off. I'm representing Deadflip. And now I drained like a dummy. Yeah, see, Dan, that's what I'm saying. If you have two lads, it's going to pick up a whole mess of nonsense. Can you guys hear Nick when he's talking to me? I mean, personally, I don't care if you can hear him talk, but I'm just saying. If he calls, it means he loves you. You're right, Bad Bad Robot. He hits me because he loves me. All right, so, so far, no multi-balls. Good. Wait, that's what we were shooting for? Yeah, I think we're going for multi-balls. And we got nothing. Oh, thank God. Do that again, baby. Do it again. That feels good. Thanks, DT. Everyone says they can hear you fine. Stop crying. No, you added the stop crying. Oh, right, right, right. Sorry. Hey, somebody say stop crying and share it for me real quick. The robots shall be homies. Mad wobbly. It shouldn't be. I wonder if it's a focus... Oh! Are we still even? You know what? I know why it's wobbly. Turn the air off. The air conditioning just went on, and we're using that as support to stop the wobble. Oh, really? Yeah. Sorry, folks. I'm walking to the AC. I'm clicking. off and I'm walking away. So in about 10 seconds, the wobbling shall end. That's our... Are you sure that wasn't me talking the shit out of you? No, I promise you. What it is, is we have the mic stand sort of wedged between a plumbing pipe and the AC duct in order to stabilize it. And since the AC kicked on, it got extra wobbly. But that's about to stop here in just a moment. Stop blowing, you stupid air conditioning. By the way, Erica said that she was really moved by Bob's silent speech. You heard me making gross dad noises in the other. What were you doing? I was like, Nick, where's the beer? And, like, cracking beers open. And Bob's being all, like, sincere and gentle. Oh, man, I felt so bad. That's nuts. Well, let's get Bob back on here. You're not drunk. The wobbles are done. Doss Bacon's. Welcome, Doss Bacon's. What do we do now? Because we went for multiball and we stopped. Oh, well, you launched the ball. Go for multi-balls again. All right. Oh. Calm down. Multiple ball is right there. Sup, yo. Wish I had a Power Ranger costume on right now, man. I'd feel pretty sweet looking. Two. Oh, crap. You're actually accomplishing what we set out to do. I said I would do it, and therefore I will try to do it. Don't hurt yourself. You're going to, like, wreck your back every time you shoot for something. Oh, baby. That was good. So, folks, what he wants to do here is put one back into the lock like that and then get this ball that he's playing with up to the top via the left orbit. That's where the jackpot is. Don't worry, you got another ball up there I'm not sure how that ball came back I wanted the double You're a double Oh Oh The 20 million is real Marie says My man Alright, you ready for another Post pass Oh, maybe not Maybe not Live! Live, hippie! Live! Cleaner. Cleaner, please. There you go. Oh, my gosh. Wait, are we counting JPs or just the multiballs? You got 5x bonus. Bonus. Oh, shit. Dude, you need to learn to drop catch more. Oh. No. Beautiful. All right. Dude, you are smoking it. Let's do it again. Whoa. The drop. It actually worked that time. You haven't fixed it. I told you. And it screwed you. And it fucked me up. Screwed me up. It screwed you up. Sorry folks language. No one swears on the internet My god you scared the shit out of me One Boom Get the bonus. Well, here's the deal. You never know. Like Dracula, if you touch anything when you get it in something, you get an extra five million. My man. Clearly the way to go here. Multiples? Aw, man. Dude, you were nailing that stuff, though. No backhands. I think Nightbot's talking a little too much in chat. Nightbot? Play pinball. He just wants you folks to play pinball is all. Who, Nightbot? Nightbot is not human. But he does have the feels. So I almost tilted. Yeah, you also stepped on my foot. Well, you're playing. You're talking kind of close. I can talk back here. You got this, bud. No, I'm sorry I stepped on your feet. Yeah, it's all right. You should be. Don't overthink it. Dust Bacons, we want to go. Is that the one? Are you talking about the one on Friday? In, what is it? Wheeling. Wheelington. Wheeling. We're definitely going to that one. We'll be there, and we'll be... See that drop catch, huh? Nope. Let's watch the replay. Oh, cool. Dan, if you're in town, man, go to the pinball expo. It will be mucho sexy. Mucho sexy. Dude. Shit. Shit. Frick! Oh, no. He's got the super jackpots rolling, folks. 100 million. You're the ultimate fish work. Dude. Yo. Good job. I feel good right now. Friday at what time? Yeah, when does that start to go? Don't know. Don't know. Something to 9 or 9 to 10 or I don't know. Something to... At night? Yeah, it's probably at night, I'm guessing. Is that night sometime? All right, you only have to beat 365, bro. Yes, mom. Is this ball three? Yeah, man. No, it's not. Ding dong. Can I point out something? Yeah, go ahead. What's your excuse? That has been every drain I've had tonight. I think you have. You've done here to there. Yep. Pinball Joe. Oh, I want people to believe in me. Boom, boom, boom. 8 p.m. Oh, baby. Yeah, we'll be there. That was sexy. So Nick usually misses the big score. I do. I miss it every time. He hit it this time. He hit it. Free beer? Oh, man. I am all about free beer. Wait, I want a beer right now. Wait, me too. Yo. Multiball. Beautiful shot. Are we sleeping up there on Friday night? I texted Brad, but I didn't get anything back yet. Whoa. Double cross. What? You didn't. I hit it. But you. Oh, no. Oh, you know what's funny? You did hit it, actually. I did hit it. There's your cute four million. Oh, I thought I had that. Oh, God. My phone's ringing. I think that center thing is worth... Can you see what this is worth once you light it all? I thought it was only worth a million. I think it's more than that. Five. You're selling your gear. Five. It's also a scary shot, baby. It's a scary shot. I just want to know what it's worth. It's priceless. It's a priceless shot. It's more sentimental value than anything else. Gavin said he's in route. In route. One more. One more to get Monsterfish rolling. There it is. I believe what you're shooting for was the spinner. I shot it, bro! Where did you guys get fishtails? This belongs to a buddy of ours who's also in Dead Flip, Brad Zac Stark. He lives somewhere. He's up north somewhere. He used to store his whole collection here at the studio, but since he bought a house, he took most of them, but he gifted us this for a short period of time. He said when. Yeah, when. Well, I was getting to that. A year ago? Like a year ago. I'm a dummy. I believe I can fly. Woo! Woo! Okay, I'm not getting any love in a post pass here. There we go.

There you go. Give it to the DMD. Bottom up wit. It's a tasty beer from Chicago. It's refreshing. Revolution Brewery, they put all their stuff in cans. Don't let the can deceive you, it's a good micro brew. Hopefully I'm not setting off too many dad noises right now drinking this beer. Dad noises? Like burps and- Like burp, I'm trying to silent burp. Oh, I'm glad you have the microphone. Because that would be hard for me. Where are you guys at in Chicago? We are in the West Loop sort of Fulton Market area. Yep. If you know where Cobra Lounge is, that's like two blocks from us. It used to be our joint, but they haven't served food in a while. Right, they shut down the kitchen to build a brewery. Brewery. Brewery. All right, so what do we... We'll play one more. Gavin should be here by then. And then we'll see some scores. Although that was a pretty radical score you just put on. Here we go. Do the same thing. I think you're so smart. Bob Hooligan. What's up, buddy? Is that Twitchell? Yep. Twitchell! I miss you. Bob died for us live on camera yesterday. get in there thank you that was good watch that replay watch that replay that was a good foot clap into the lock oh baby yeah that was great oh god Bob that's Erica here we go oh boy air catastrophe One dad noise, please. Starboard. Oh, God. What are you shooting for? Oh, the size of the boat. Oh, big one. Oh, big one. For your health. Thank you. Oh, give me a break. Oh, I got it. Wait, so that's random? I thought it was based on how the spinner was spinning. Me too. Now we know. Bob is our pinball Jesus. He died for our poor scores. R.I.P. Bob. That was a little drunk. Drunky. Oh, gosh. That felt good. So we'll pose this question again. If any of you folks know where there is a playable Walking Dead machine in Chicago proper, real Chicago, not freaking Wheeling or Joliet, if there's one in the city, tell us, please, because we want to go play that tonight. Yep, let's go. You and me, baby. Tonight, we're going to blow that ding-dong apart. It's called AutoCast. Not like I need it. Oh, God, I need it. Finally hitting stuff. Come on, baby! Oh, I wanted it. Proud of you, man. Woo! Nothing feels better than two loops to a lock, let me tell you. Except for this. This feels terrible. No one's ever a fan of that. The disgusting wild ball. That fricked me, for sure. Is that a daemon? Yeah. What the? What the? What the? What the? All right, here we go. Multiple balls. Hey, we're burning worms. Brixie's has one? No. Shut up. Well, that's not Chicago. That's a question mark. That's not an exclamation point. Also, Brixie's is in Brookfield. There we go. Hey, do you get a leg? I got a pole. No, fall in. Culture, yeah, I hope we find one too. We just want to get familiar with it before we play it at the launch party on Friday. Has anyone played it yet? Yeah, Culture did. at uh I don't know the York Pa Show Pennsylvania? MB Topper yeah Cobra Lounge is building a brewery oh man tips for buying your first pin? Topper! Topper's doing my taxes folks wait what? that's my accountant thanks for coming him Topper taxes Nick any tips for someone buying their first pin? I would go to collectors to buy your first pin or buy it new. Yeah. Just don't get a random Craigslist thing. Go through people that own games, that own a lot of games because they keep care of them. The problem with collectors is they're going to charge you what they're worth. Yeah. But if you ever get a cheap one, there's going to be so much upkeep and so much stuff to fix That it's not going to be worth it. So I bought some cheap games over here actually Less expensive than they should have been. Required some work. But I had to put more money than what I saved on buying those and back into it to get them up to like playable quality. What K3v2 is saying is to buy a cheap one and learn how to fix it Which I guess is kind of cool, too. If you want to learn how to fix it, I agree with that that yeah that is not my goal that was a good burp are you feeling okay um yeah you are warm you okay i think i'm overheating you're like dripping up here oh no i was outside uh okay looking at the skyline not smoking cigarettes no you don't smoke smokers are jokers i was hoping if you want to if you want to learn if you want to learn how to fix them definitely get a crappy one and fix it or get a good one that's working and then learn how to fix it as it breaks yeah so that way you're not in a big project right away i'm getting really tired of this right here nice catch though thanks man i don't know we'll find out gavin may be here folks and then we're gonna have a battle on our hands is that a tilt is that a tilt don't kick my beer over It was amazing. Thanks, dude. I hear keys. Who has keys? Everyone? It's not Gavin. It's not Gavin? It's not Gavin. Wait, is it Gavin you're lying to me? Shh. All right, here's what I want. Here's what I want from this multiball. Anything. What does that mean? Up to the top? Oh, nice bounce. They loved each other, and that's all you can ask for. Good jackpot. Thanks, bud. Sharks. You're the master. Oh, no. Never give up. Never surrender. Good score. Baby fish! What do we got here? My first $900 roller games. Yeah, man. Rock, rock, rock, roller games. Yeah, roller games.

Gavin Miller is here. So that's the camera you're looking at. You don't have to duck. It sees the whole room. It'll see it here. You can see it back there. This is our D&D camera. Dungeons & Dragons camera. DMD. And the top blah, blah, blah. So, yeah. It looks like player three's got us one on the wrap. Go. You got it. You won. Yep. Screw it. We don't need to play it. I took it. Go, Gavin. Oh. Yo, that was some split flipper right there. I got to watch the replay, dude. You backhanded it. You backhanded it in. Wait, here it comes. Click. Click. Dude, that was rad. That was great. All right. Hi, Gavin. Well, folks, we're going to get a little tournament started, and hopefully Gavin can show us how to properly beat this game apart. I set a game score for you. All right. Wait, that was GC? Yeah. Or 50-ish. He was hitting some Super Js. Okay. Yeah. So it's doable. I don't remember how yours plays. It's a little fancy. It's super sexy. Light flippers? Yep. The outlanes are... K3 V2, we have a... It's the Chicago flag in the shape of a pinball flipper on the back of our hoodie. And then you get kind of two shots. Everything else is quite as much as I've seen it play on other games. Yeah, honestly, it plays pretty fair. nothing really kicks your butt too much have time is it so we have quarter to let's say it's time flies we have in front man yeah we'll play up to seven points sure yesterday was 11 that went really that would like two hours so we'll keep it short 421 it was well we did 321 but we thought 421 might be is it hot in here to you T-shirts man. Are you hot? Because you look hot. I look great. Yeah you look great. Alright so we're gonna play to 7. I think we play to 7 and then if we want to stick around we can play other types of tournaments. We don't like to stream too long. So we'll do 2-3-1 or 3-1-0? 3-2-1 so everyone gets a point. I'm fine with that. Three, two, one? Yeah. Let's try that and see what happens. Yeah. Okay. All right. All right, folks. So you heard it here. We're playing it to seven. First place gets three. Second place gets two. Third place gets one. You were the winner yesterday. I was the winner yesterday. So you go first. So I go first. And then I guess we'll give you the benefit of going last. That works for me. There you go. Guests go last. You're the man. And Nick, we're going to start arming up the old stuff here. Gavin, you're going to love the photo I chose for you, brother. All right. Here we go, folks. It's for half the marbles. Jack Danger, folks. Jack Danger. No, wait. Don't put it up yet. I'm sucking. Gavin, you're with us. Next, dude. Oh, my God. I couldn't stop it. I couldn't stop it. All right. Good start, bro. Thanks, friend. Here we go. For the win. Good start. What a nerd. You got any more of those cold beverages? Yeah, brother. Actually, just go in the fridge and grab whatever looks good. All right, we'll do that. Oh, you're beating me by two million already. Oh, bullshit. Language, tilt. Bull S. Bull S. You just called Brixie's Does Have a Walking Dead. Really? Oh, yo, yeah, Gavin's here. Where else can we play one right now? Um, there will be one at Expo. Yeah. I just played one today at one of my customer's, uh, stops. Nice. It's a warehouse, and he's going to be bringing it out to probably, probably headquarters would be my guess. Oh, that's awesome. So. But there's no barcades around here that have one right now? Not yet. That you know of? Okay. Not yet. Very. Brixie's has one. Um, I know there's, Joliet Pinball is getting one. Yep. They're going to have a launch party also. Yeah. I just saw a mark yesterday. He picked one up at Stern. Oh, rad. Did you collect any jackpots during that? Yeah, sure, all of them. Okay, cool. And I wouldn't be surprised if one ends up at Blind Robin in the next month or so. That'd be awesome. Replacing Batman, perhaps? Yeah, Batman would be the one that would be coming out. When is Blind Robin getting one? Well, he just said it. So, Briggsies, should we go tonight, tomorrow? To Briggsies? I got my car. Oh, wait, you got your car? But I want to get drunk. I mean, I want to drink soda. I mean, I can stop drinking. Don't ever stop drinking. Yo, that was a sexy shake. Afraid you'd touch it after that. Yeah, you get two. Yeah, that's how Bob's ringing in there right now. Swinging and ringing. All right. So I'm doing something called doinking right now, folks, where you don't actually hit anything. When are you doing the expo? I'm definitely going to be there Thursday. Oh, my flipping flip. I might be there tomorrow evening. I'm helping somebody with a project to get done in time for the expo. How many games are you bringing? So far right now, I have two confirmed. And there's a possibility I'm pulling another one out of storage. Right on. And I placed a call on a fourth that I haven't heard back from. Is there going to be a Big Lebowski there? There's going to be two at the expo. Right. And there's going to be one at the open house in Huffington. Oh, Pinball Life. Yes. Yeah. Right on. And I did get a sneak peek at the Big Lebowski earlier. Oh, baby. Well, your boy Scott worked on that, yeah? He's the programmer, or one of the programmers. That's right. That's right. And the game looks great. It does look great from the photos I saw. It looks incredible. Sports. Watch it, squeakers. We ain't playing basketball. Yo, that was aggressive. Your shoes still make that noise. What do you mean? Yeah. I've heard still that now. Sports. I mean, re-justice. Resold. I resold them. Hold bonus! You get a line, I get a hold bonus. Bob, who again? You're my hero. Let's go win. Let's go win. We do not have lightning flippers on every machine. Just the machines that count. Just Dracula? Yeah, Dracula. Fish Tales. Fish Tales and... Simpsons? Or... No, that's it. No, I guess that's it. Uh-oh. Gavin, all the comeback. Oh! You got boat blocked. What is BS? 10, 20 million points. 10, 20 million? I've never seen a big score. Oh, I thought it was a phone. It just says bullshit, and then... Just yells at you for doing too well. Man, what is there to do on a Tuesday night? Did you do Gavin's thing? I did. Yeah. Gavin's a good one. Yeah, Gavin's up there. Nice shake-em. No sweat. But yeah, you happen to watch the only two games that have lightning flippers were the two games that we've streamed so far. I guess outside of Metallica. Should this be unruly if we put lightning flippers on Metallica? Put lightning flippers on Metallica? Whatever game we play, let's just put them on there. That would be the saddest game of pinball. We need to make our deadflip flippers. I think we get white flippers and stream them, right? I completely agree. All right, good work. Good work, Gavin. Can I point something out? I think you played my ball. What? Nope, I played my ball. I'm doing terrible. Yeah, I was second. You're the one that's doing awful. You're first. All right, here comes. I tried using that at Hindenburg as well. I think you played my ball. I think you played my ball. Josh Sharpe, I think you played my ball. Yep. You're ready. Come on, buddy. I put a ball in there. Wake up. Telling everybody how you fix the front pop-up thing on this game. The gate thing. I think it's still set on easy settings. There you go. No, don't. Oh, I hate this. That was a good catch to use something. But I don't want it. All right, catch it up. Drop catch. Do it again. Come here, Mom. Great catch, man. That is pro catching right there. Can I tell you something, folks? That felt real good. That's pro catching. Thanks, baby. Hey, no talking to... What? I got... I got... No talking to the lades while we're streaming, dog. Hello, ladies. Can you just go in there, please? Good drop. You're good at that. I can get good at that drop. No, no backhand. How big was it? There's the multiball, folks. Oh. Good tip. But it's not... Oh, really? I thought they already released that. That's what I was told yesterday at Smurf. All right. NDA, bro. Yo, NDA. You're live, bro. Nah. I wouldn't sweat it. I don't think anyone can hear you. I wouldn't be surprised, though, if there is an update they can't tell unless we're walking back. Well, there goes Rock. Good call, buddy. Good. You can't speak as a representative of the state. Good. Good. Good. Yeah. Good cover up there, bud. Damn. Good ball, bro. Good ball. Pulled it out. Nightbot. I'm currently losing. Nightbot, you need to shut up, dude. You're getting a little too chatty. I got video mode a bit, which would help move. I can't really get above Jack with just video mode. That's right. And get a fish, which I only have one left. Yo, there was a robot debate in the stream just a minute ago. you need to show that shirt off. All hell of a robot uprising. Oh man, there's robots all over the stream. All them robots. Alright, we get it. He's the fastest cast in the Midwest. Oh baby. Come on. That was some bullshit. Three in a row, babe. I could go this way. Give me some more. I could do this. Or I'll just... I'm just going to go fast, fast, fast, fast. Play like a pro. What's special about lightning flippers? They're shorter. By a very small amount. By a very... Yeah, by... Like one-eighth of an inch. They're shorter by one-eighth of an inch, which makes all your shots that you're familiar with off. Well, that was a bad multiball, Did you score any jerk ports? No, he got no jerk ports. So sorry, I was trying not to burp in the middle of that sentence. Lightning flippers are one-eighth of an inch shorter, which makes all the shots that you're used to a little different, so it just makes the game a little harder. Also, that increases the gap between the flippers for easier drainability. Oh, tough drain, bro. Oh, the juggle. Oh, no, that was good. The juggle. Oh, fart. Oh, brutal. Not enough to win, folks. Not enough to win. Yo. We got ourselves a game going here. Enough to get a whole head of gab in there. Dude, I had, what, four million when I started this third ball? Brutal. Exactly. It's like hard mode, essentially. You know? What? Flippers? Flippers, yeah. It's like upping the difficulty level. Yeah, there was some people that were like, oh, I could get better on fish tails. But the thing to understand is every fish tail is different. Yep. And one of the things that makes ours harder is liking flippers. Yep. We also have no extra balls on. No extra balls. And we're basically trying to set these games up as hard as possible. Yeah. So that we're prepared for tournaments, depending on different... No! Right, because if you show up to a real pit ball tournament, they have their game set as hard as possible. Because there's a lot of people that have to play all day. Did we install these flippers ourselves, or did this one come with those? This is a factory lightning flipper game. Factory lightning flippers? The Dracula, I had to buy separately. But you installed those? Well, I put those in. Oh, yeah. Dracula came with lightning flippers, too. Super Panda, thanks for coming. Yeah, that's a good point. Dracula came with lightning flippers. Somebody took them off. Oh. And I had to re-buy lightning flippers. Yeah. I want to say Popeye as well. I believe it came with lightning flippers. Popeye? Popeye. Popeye. So I got three, Nick got two, Jack got one. Jack got one. Jack got three. Nick got two. Jack got one. Yeah. I got two. Gavin. I don't know. I gather we were talking you up the whole time. I had rocked the boat lift. I had two balls locked and didn't do it. No, no. It got away. All right, let's put the rules up here. Boom. All right, first to seven. All right, I guess I go first. You're up. Because I'm the wiener. I'm the giant wiener. I'm a big, sweaty, disgusting wiener. I got, what is this, the day pressure? Yo, more emoticons with faces, please. Emoticons. Oh, baby. That's a good fire. I'm just on Lake Michigan every day, practicing my fast cash. Good. Clip. Two in a row. Yeah, there you go. All the business. Three in a row. Let's go. I was going to say BSD should, since I think BSD. Don't quote me on that. Yeah. Sweep. Oh. In and out. That's what I get for reading the chat. You have the brace, but not the matcher. Uh-oh. Mom? Oh, boy. Oh, please. That's not good. Clean yourself. Cleaner. Oh, boy. That was my fault. I shot at nothing. What's everybody's favorite pins? Nick Campbell, what is your favorite pinball machine? The ones I play the most are ACDC, Metallica. the ones I don't own it's probably Tron Tron's fun and older games I would say Adam's Family, Twilight Zone which we do and and yo can you pick one you hippie it changes it does change I get asked that all the time what is your favorite pinball It's hard to say because it's a mood thing. Some days you want to play a fast-playing action game. Agreed. You want one with more scoring modes. Like after playing Metallica for too long, it's nice to hop on Iron Man and have it whoop your ass really quick. Yeah. Some of my friends give me crap about the ones I always like going to. Like Red and Ted's Roadshow is one I really enjoy. People don't like that you like that? I know one person. I like that I like it because I beat him every time I played. Yeah, ACDC, one of my faves, absolutely. I'm a big fan of Judge Dredd. Really? Okay. I love some Dredd. Yeah, pull it up here, buddy. Judge Dredd! Yeah, that's going to be one of my Expos games. Dan the Robot. Yeah, Bride of Pinbot is the shit. Bride is a fun game. it's not a good tournament. Right. Oh, suddenly I got a billion points. And you were at 50 million, which is great. Ah, that old billion shot. And if you played the final version in a two-player game and one player got a billion, the game rebooted. What? It was a software glitch. It just didn't understand what was going on. It would wait until that player that got the billions ball ended and give you the bonus, and it would never carry over back to the other player. it would just sit there idle for like five seconds and just boom farts arabian nights is a lot of fun that was actually one of the first games i got my hands on when i got into pinball relatively low scoring game in comparison to what they were putting out at that yeah no kidding dan the robot thanks for coming buddy here we go real something what this guy man this guy yeah he's uh wait i'm not over there to make fun of him so he's like doing well yo cool butt bro thanks bro yeah it's over My butt! I'm sensitive about my next butt! Oh! Wow, watch that again. We need a replay button. We need an instant replay button. Holy shit, that was amazing. Oh, baby. Watch that in the outlaying, dude. Watch that one tomorrow first. That was a lot of spin. That was dirty. Wow. Jaded, yeah, honestly, all games are different. Titan says nice save. Thanks, man. I feel good about that. That was a sexy save. How's the Walking Dead launch party on Friday here? I guess I'm not sure what that question means. How was? No, how's the Walking Dead launch party on Friday here? it's going to be great when it happens on Friday unless the game is trash and then it's going to be terrible and we're just going to get drunk but the game looks like it's going to be a lot of fun good freaking ball Nick Campbell all the sixes and all the twos Gavin Miller steps up to the plate Yeah. Hog, I haven't really played the game yet. We were actually asking if someone knew where we can get our hands on one. Gavin here said that he played it, but the code is not finished yet. Yeah, it's gone so far, but you can tell it's got so much more to come. Yeah. And that's a lot of the newer strings that come out. They released the game before a lot of the stuff is done. You hated Metallica and ACDC when they came out, and now I own both of them. Yep. Because the code... I hated Metallica. Got updated. I hated that game. But since they changed the code and updated it, it's like a really awesome game to play now. It's amazing. ACDC, they won't stop changing the code. Every time we get there. Yeah, right. They're like, oh, you're killing it on the mode? What's the percentage? Kill it. Yeah, we're going into great season. Let's say 100%. All right, I'll get a water. Get a water. Oh, wait, that prevents you from drinking? Don't drink a drive, folks, unless you're going to play pinball. And you've already been drinking. I don't think that alibi works. But I was streaming, Sofficer. I don't like that. Sofficer. All right, multiball. Let's lock it up and call it a day. Don't need that ball. Oh, that felt sexy. Gotcha. Gotcha. You all right, Kevin? Come on, baby. Are you farting kidding me that that just happened right now? Oh my god. Ah, where is it? I did that to myself. Really? You're going to drain everything? Thanks, Dad. Let's get out of here. Everybody out of the pool. That is a situation where everybody out of the pool... Oh, by the way, folks. If you type, I just set this up, I'm super proud of it, exclamation point E-O and hit enter, a little surprise will show up. You're going to talk or you're going to fish. Nick had a multiball and everything, and then the game fucked up, and then there was an earthquake. All right, here we go, folks. Everybody out of the pool! It makes Naipa scream what we usually scream when we just lose our entire multiball Yeah I wonder if he keep saying it I hope not, because that would get annoying. What? Everybody out of the pool. What the hell? That was a good save, too. That was a good save. I am on fire, my friends. Quick question. I've played a lot of Metallica and Star Trek. On Metallica, everyone talks about the end of the line, but I can't find any info on it. What is it? What is the end of the line on Metallica? Gavin? I have not gotten to it. That's O and O. But isn't that where you get all four of the crank it ups completed? Oh, really? You complete all crank it ups? Yeah. Ooh, good grief. That is a lot of work. That is a lot of work. Holy crap. Oh, get the hell in there. Wait, is this ball two? Oh, good. All right. Nick, drain the freaking ball already, man. Jeez. What's the next machine that you're looking to add to your collection? Well, our buddy Brad, who owns this Fishtail. Jack's going to buy one. I'll never buy a pinball machine. Come on. I don't like pinball at all, man. JK, I love pinball. Our buddy, who owns this Fishtails, also owns a World Cup soccer that he's considering selling to us. I totally want to buy that. Yep. There's a World Cup soccer I have to sell in my van. Right now? God, you are a salesman. Yeah, let's negotiate, bro. Yeah, what else you got in that magical van of yours? Oh, baby. Erica, if you buy an Attack from Mars, I'll let you store it here. Yo, you could store it here, dog. Lebowski. 200 million. Are you kidding me? You just got the super attack. Yo, you need to grow up, dude. Tradition, you got an attack from ours? That's a fun game, man. Attack's good. Totally. Attack's real good. You know, you got to get it up the boat there, bud. There you go. Attack is still one of my best earners on route. Really? No shit. So I think my favorite games are Baywatch, Police Force. Millionaire, right? Yeah. Oh, baby. Cyclone. Cyclone actually is fun. How about Future Spa and Hard Body? Gavin, explain this. That gave me the wrong number. I only got $100 million for that Super J. Didn't you hit it twice? No. No, you only hit it once. Okay, so here's the deal. It said 200, but I had almost 100 going into it. But did you have two balls locked in here? Actually, I don't understand that. I don't know why I got 200. It could be like the mystery 5 million targets. Yeah. Where they just hit the wrong play. Oh, yo, Creature, Doss Bacon, legit. So Nick's disqualified for cheating. No, no, I'm okay with it. Yeah, type in the fucking code again, buddy. Erica, honestly, yeah, we got schooled hard on Baywatch. Because I do not understand the scoring on that game. Baywatch! Yeah, no real players play that game. What? No real players play Baywatch? Yeah, that's a... That game's all about hitting a shot, watching the animation of some sexy girls, and then draining. Mm-hmm. You said it. You said it. And then draining. All right, here's where I come back again. Come back! Oh, boy. Mom, video mode. Video mode? Wow. Well, that ain't going to do it. Good game, Jamie. Good game. That ain't going to do it. Here we go, folks. Nick Campbell with his 248 ding-dong points. Ding-dong meaning a million, I'm sure. Oh, get the video over already. Here, let's give Nick Campbell a little. Oh, thanks, man. That's cute. Oh, God. Oh, yes. No! Monster fish. That's a little scary right there. That's a lot of ups and downs right in the middle of the play field there. No, can you just play? Oh, shut your mouth. Dude, you had a monster fish on the line, and you let it go. Shut your mouth. Shut your mouse. Oh, man. Super Panda, that is totally a ping pong table in the back. Play stream ping pong. Yeah, who's streaming ping pong? Nobody. Let's be number one. Gavin Miller. Don't sweat it. You know what it is? It's hot in here. Oh my god, can you just write, like, chode? Let's put a dead flip in here. folks you've seen nick campbell put his name on this damn machine twice twice today uh did you beat me gavin no damn it i know right i was really hoping i did all right so this video mode this next game It's pretty much going to be a settle up in this next game. Yep. It's 5-5-2. 5-5-2. Folks, this next game decides who wins. And it ain't me. And it ain't Jack. I mean, it ain't. Oh, God, why is it so hot in here? It's just, I'm so good. I'm just so good. So, it's, you have five points. High five. I have five points. High five. Gavin has two points. low five. Hey, Bob. Hey, Bob. Did you see the promo video for this thing? Holy crap. From the early 90s? It's live dudes actually fishing, and they're like, we aren't catching anything, so they develop a pinball machine. And they even, when they're going through their tackle box and stuff, they give a shout out to Bush Light. It's pretty great. You can tell it's made almost in Wisconsin. Rockner, thanks for coming. I appreciate it. We're gonna be doing this Monday through Friday from now on. 5pm. Don't miss it! We have one more game to play. What's happening? And I just poisoned Nick with some allergy powder, so I think we're good. And guess who gets to go first? Yo. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Big Cat SARS. Keep your shirt on, buddy. Is SARS the new thing? Is it SARS? Oh, no, it's Ebola. SARS is back. SARS was like 90s. We're bringing it back. We're bringing SARS back. Bird virus is back. Bird flu, baby. So you have to hit the Start button right there like three times. Oh, like this? Yep. Thanks, champ. Excuse me, folks. I'm going to use my allergy powder for good. Blow into the game with your fingers. Or whatever that means. Your suit is back last. It's really faded. Faded? Yes. You know, I have two new ones in the van. You've got to be kidding me. I'm not kidding you. Oh, my God, dude. Gavin's got everything. Do you have magical elixirs to make me play better, too? Oh, that apparently is what I forgot to pack today. That was amazing. You just need to find, like, some empty old glass bottles and fill it with Red Bull and put fancy tags on it. Sell magical elixirs. Snake oil salesman. Come on, it's your best guess. Yeah, DOS Bacons. It is what it is, you know. So we're using any money we get our hands on to donate it to charity. And by the way, click the link down below. Give some money to some kids. They're sick. They need some help. Nick needs some help. Totally. Playing as bad as he's doing. Do a 24-hour pinball stream where you play all your machines, and you'll be rolling in the dollar signs. I would much... much if we stream for 24 hours playing all of our games moving this setup would let's do it for money pit okay okay if it's for charity for donating money every hour we do it people have to like donate per hour that's not a telethon who the hell said that super panda that's not a bad idea you know moving the setup it's sort of a pain in the butt we could flip to another if we get long enough extension cord, we could flip to another stream and just go have a conversation for a minute while somebody else is hooking up the cameras and we could come back to the camera. Or we buy ten more of these. Or you get a pinball dolly and move a machine out and move another machine in and out. Well, the leveling's always... Well, you have to level them all in the position first. Well, it's not like these are all... Level it, pull it out, and then you move it in and just double check quickly. DT wants you to describe what pinball Olympics is. Why don't you come over here on camera and give us a little... Pinball Olympics? It's an event that's hosted maybe twice a year at a friend's place in McHenry. About 12 different events, all of them custom. Right on. Banger Jay is the one who does this. Banger Jay. On the, what is that? The interwebs? Interwebs. That series of tubes that has all the pinball stuff on there. All those liquidy tubes of internet. If he's not shouting Lion Man, he's making projects for his Olympics. That's awesome. So there's like the luge where you lay on the floor and the flipper buttons are on the legs and there's a mirror above the game. Oh, screw that. You also had a Lord of the Rings with a treadmill underneath it. Yes, we did. That was the summer Olympics one. What was the one where you were on a lazy suit? Oh, okay. That is the Vajazzler. That was at the Pinball Life open house last year. Yeah. And we had an Elvis on there, and you could move the machine in, so you have to stand on it and play it, and the whole thing rotates 360 degrees at, like, I don't know, 3 RPM or something. So the whole room's moving around you the entire time. Oh, barf. And the other thing we did is we did northwest, east, south, where you move it to the edge, and you have to stand on the solid platform, and the machine goes around, and you have four people playing one game. And the machine comes along, you play it like this, pass it off to the next guy. And then you get a little time. Oh, man, that's sexy. I like that. And we have the Tilty Flash, which is a flash game inside of a Stellar Wars cabinet hooked up to an ice cream maker motor at a crank, so the play field's going like this the entire time you're playing the game. Whoa. I saw recently someone had an ACDC with the Thunderstruck targets hooked to the tilt. And that looked infuriating. We did that in Olympics with Theater of Magic. Those two targets, left and right, the center end. The death targets. Took away the tilt warnings and shoot whatever you want. All the rules were the same except either one of those two targets. We'll tell you again. It's your ball. Yeah. So someone was just streaming. They had an ACDC setup for charity where they hooked all the Thunderstruck targets up to the tilt. And Keith Elwin had the high score of like 11 million. Because you just want people to go up and the second they get the ball, they're like, yeah, boom. Let's do it. Oh, dude, I want that. You got to stream watch. I want that. I was one of my favorite events was playing that because if you thread the needle, it's just like, oh, my God. You get up that ramp, especially if you get levitate going on there. Build it up. Build it up. Build it up. Build it up. Especially if you get multiball. You don't want multiball. Your accountant is telling you to buy stuff. I don't know if that's a thing. What do you mean? How hard do you think it would be to get under 1K in the IFPA ranking? You know what? I'm under 1K. If you do moderate, moderately well in every tournament, just like run of the bill, average, just regular AF scores, you will be over 1,000 in no time. Well, why aren't you over 1,000? Because I do shitty instead of average. You can regret it, tournament. All right, let's play this. Let's play this. I'm more garbage than average. Michael said I can write off all those cameras. I don't think we can do this. What do you mean? I'm just saying. It's a business expense. You know, a 24-hour pinball stream for charity would be so rad. Once we build this up, if people want to actually watch this, then we'll do that. Yeah. If you folks actually want to see something like that, we could probably make it work. A 24-hour pinball stream for charity. If we really do this in a few months, and the people, and we're still doing it. Oh, if we don't get tired of streaming every day? I'm just saying. It is. It's getting exhausting. We do it every day. Yeah. And then once it's like a few months, we'll just promote it and do a 24-hour thing. Yeah. No, that would be. You can come and go. And that's the thing. All right. Come in whenever you want to. It's like that 24-hour drum circle shit where someone just comes in, starts playing for a minute, and then leaves. Call the sharps up. See if they want to stop in for an hour. Be like, any time within the next 24 hours. It's like whoever's in Chicago. That's remarkable. That's remarkable. I would watch it, but only like 12 hours. Just three. Sleeping is for the weak. Except for, I love sleeping. Oh, my God, I love sleeping. No, no. It had it. Oh, sorry, buddy. Hey, Nick. I didn't. Hey, love never dies. Love never dies. This game has it out for me. It was blinking. I don't know. You can watch it yourself. I'm watching. I'm getting the score. That's incredible Try to backhand it didn't work 24 hour stream for charity. I think we might be into that. Yeah, that would be a lot of fun Oh, Gavin, by the way, you have every opportunity to give yourself a shout-out here for your company. Hold on, I'm making money. Yo. Man, that felt good. Mom? Stop winning! I love you. Love you. Can I get a lock, please? Oh my god, you're the worst. Calm down, Jack. All right, Jack. See how I ripped you off there? Oh no. Oh, you got to deal with my locks, baby. Oh mama. Yeah, get closer. Get closer. You're going to want to see this. You're going to want to see this. that that was garbage that was all the garbage the garbage is real folks love you That's very true. That's very true. I thought we could get the IFPA involved, maybe. I don't know if that's an IFPA thing or not. I think they didn't do it. Are you fucking kidding me? Nick's salty. If you guys have that image of that salt shaker, can you put it up for me right now? Oh, my God. What a... Saltiest bro. saltiest bro saltiest bro you know what that was really good fucking Morton salt girl over here yo give me my umbrella the last little slide oh there it is thank you super panda yo there's that salt for you dog I'm sorry panda Oh, why didn't that go in? I'm getting butt ripped off here. Oh, I got rocked the boat with nothing? You got drained the boat. Yo, all right. Let's get those everybody out of the pools going here, folks. Everybody out of the boat and into the pool. Snuck it in. Wow. Good. Hey, Nightbot. Everybody out of the pool. I love that. No, that's the same drain I get every fucking time. You got a lot of salt in that one. Yeah, dude, look at all that salt. Way to be salty, dog. Yo, salty, folks. All right. Isn't that Gavin's ball? Oh, Gavin. Disqualified. Thanks for the help, J.J. It happened to me. It was at Pinberg this year. Some guy walked up about to play my ball. I'm like, you don't want to do that. You don't want to do that. I had to say it three times, and nobody else around was saying anything. Giving a shit. And then you just kind of figured out, oh, I'm not up. Yeah, duh. Like, yeah, you're welcome. And then what happens? He gets a three in the sack. Or on that game. Nothing to it. What a ding dong. Don't want to do that. Yeah, man, slamming. Well, you know, slide saves are one thing. I don't know what that face is, but I want to believe that's Nick crying over my score right now. He's got those good looking beards like you do. Like you? Oh, you mean this. You know what, guess what? When and if and when we become partners with Twitch, we can have our own icons that people post. What? Yeah. Really? People put up like your doinks. Deadflip icons. Deadflip icons. Gavin, there's one ball left. All right, folks. This is it. I want consistency. This is it. Yeah. I have one block for multiball. I have video mode lit. If I get multiball, get one jackpot, maybe two, get video mode, get my video mode going, I'm all, I'm up. I'm back up to one seven. That's all I need. You're back, baby. You gonna talk or you gonna fish? That was cute. Oh, baby. This is it. He gets it. If he milks this properly, I'm gonna be super pissed off. Bob, you're going to Brixie? see you there buddy have some tips ready for when we get there yo you're killing that shot that isn't worth anything till you light it up yeah Yeah, multiball super jets, oh baby. Head to the top for jackpot. Dear computer, please stop sleeping, thank you. Dude, out of the pool all day would be incredible. I just want a bunch of kids running away from a pool with a turd in it. Baby room. Baby room. Oh crap. Yeah, this is happening now. He's only, well, woof. I heard what you said. No! Oh! Can I get everybody out of the pool, folks? That was it. Oh, fuck. Gavin, you gotta win or I can't win. I know. I gotta go over the top. This is what happened last night. So here's the deal. Make a three-way playoff. If Bob had to win, or else I lost, last night. This is exactly how yesterday went down, folks. Gavin has to beat me for Nick to win. I need more water. I can't walk. No pressure, apparently. No pressure. Also, don't do it. Oh, my God. Well Good luck buddy Yeah Yeah She's tight Yeah You want those locks? I'll give them to you I'll give them to you How many? As soon as the ball Give me 20 bucks I'll give you those locks As soon as the ball hits the flipper When it's down Coming off here As soon as the ball hits the flipper Boom Lock As soon as the ball hits the flipper Boom That's when you flip Nick, stop throwing the guy off, man. Happy holiday. Yo, that's salt. Nick is the saltiest bro. Fuck me. I believe I can fly. Woo! I believe I can touch the sky Get out of here. What? The captive ball counts too? That? Oh, no!
