  It wasn't today, but when I finally unlocked Choose Your Adventure on R&M by filling the Adventure Card (with only one adventure prelit), I of course chose Rick Potion #9, which is only available that way, and the music had me laughing so hard that I drained before I really knew what was going on. Still trying to get back to it, and resisting the temptation to change the setting to "un-wizard" it and just mix it in with the other adventures.

  You will enjoy and endless amount of opportunities and requests for ramps that fit your current setup. Hopefully the temptation to do “just one more” with the current heater will not win out over finally getting the big unit into production! I’d be curious to see if the big unit makes you more efficient, too, by allowing smaller ramps to be formed concurrently with large ramps if there’s room on the sheet. Heater! Heater! Heater! Yay!

  I have a working Sharpshooter II game with a pretty heavily worn playfield - the game boots and plays but the playfield has seen better days. Any idea what it would be worth? I'm looking to unload it to make room. Can you pm me pics? For me, this machine is a perfect "keeper" in my collection. It is an awesome game, and it has very low value to anyone else, so there is no temptation to sell it. I'm not a huge fan of the artwork, so I am in the middle of a pretty interesting transformation right now.

  Do you smoke? Or have you quit? Post #13 in topic

  Posted over 5 years ago by Pinslot – in Generally off-topic ‐ Last reply over 4 years ago

  Quit about 20 years ago after smoking for about 20 years. Took several attempts to quit, but I’m 99.99% free of that addiction. Very occasionally I’ll find myself in a situation where the voice of temptation says , “Go on... one won’t do any harm.” It’s amazing how long the addiction lingers.

It’s listed with pics and description. Need to make space according to the Lady of the House. Thanks Mike. Glad it finally sold Mike.

  Slugfest help with opto switches Post #2 in topic

  This is a toughie as I have recently started restoring my slugfest. I have a finicky ramp opto and a bleacher opto. I can understand the temptation to ditch the opto for a physical switch. If you can find the parts I recommend restoring to the original opto configuration.

  Do you have your ideal collection? Post #56 in topic

  Posted over 5 years ago by Rarehero – in All Pinball ‐ Last reply over 5 years ago

  Yup, I generally hold onto my games & don't mix things up much. I recently decided to cull 3 (1 sold, 2 pending)...and while it was hard to decide & they're games I still like, it's fine - I won't lose sleep about it. I generally don't like the new releases, so the temptation to sell & get something new isn't there. Happy with what I've got!

  This. Times 100. I write posts, I copy them to a note on my ipad and then just hit back button and go back to the forum. The actual content of my often volatile post is not published, and I bet this has had a lot to do with my up/down ratio recovering above 60% I'd publish self-nudes of me playing Gladiators if they'd allow it. I can resist anything but temptation.
