Quoted from LoneStarPinball:Did you get the same email I did today? Based on who it was from, and the subject line. I thought it was the email I had been waiting on, but alas no.
I did and was disappointed, I thought this was it too... but instead it said "ship in next few weeks"
Quoted from guitarded:Great. Uninformed people talking about Covid. How fun.
You could skip the first 5 minutes 
Quoted from guitarded:Great. Uninformed people talking about Covid. How fun.
Fact check: Watched the video. Informed. Not sure where you get your news. Actually, I am afraid to ask.
I can agree, this could have been their warm up bits "off camera" with each other before they start the real meat. Just a suggestion, cuz I do tire of the COVID talk when Im trying to pin-out of all this mess in my head...

Sounds like (per Bowen 22:50) there may be some call-outs from other cast members in a future release!

There are some Birdperson (Dan Harmon) callouts in the latest release

Except where they are glaringly wrong, sure. But I am positive he got the Town he lives in correct.

Stop. There is a thread for this crap.
Well I bought #171 hoping to see it soonish. I see 157-158 seemed like they are still a few weeks back.
Quoted from BillyPilgrim:#151 shipping on Monday
Is your #151 a butter cabinet?
Quoted from zaphX:At this rate Spooky will be making RMs for the next 2-3 years.
no, not gonna happen.
Quoted from zaphX:At this rate Spooky will be making RMs for the next 2-3 years.
Im guessing the delay shipping #141-151 was simply due to Spooky building all the international export games in a batch and getting those off in shipping containers.
Quoted from northerndude:no, not gonna happen.
Well let's do the math.
We are 8 months into production. 151 is about_ to ship.
(750-151) / (151 /
= 31.73 months remaining in production at the current rate.
Now, there are some problems with this. We don't know how many Euro/Aussie games went out. COVID took the factory down for a while, etc.
Quoted from zaphX:Well let's do the math.
We are 8 months into production. 151 is about_ to ship.
(750-151) / (151 /= 31.73 months remaining in production at the current rate.
Now, there are some problems with this. We don't know how many Euro/Aussie games went out. COVID took the factory down for a while, etc.
Covid, moving the factory.. etc etc etc. So call it 6 months of production. And your ramp up is also different. Your first month of production will never be anywhere near your last months as productivity increases on the line.

I think it more like 5-5.5 months in production. Covid took 2.5-3 months off their schedule.
Nobody knows how many out of sequence were made for the shipping containers and that is throwing the count off in this thread. I'm betting they finish at 1 year 8 months, rather than the 1 year 6 months due to Covid. But then again they are boosting their staff a bit and may come back and finish on time, even with the 2+ month shutdown.

Fucks sake, not again.

Yes, I acknowledged these issues up front. It's an imperfect calculation for sure.

Yeah more than 30 games at Very Least between Aust. and NZ, and mostly games over #200 build. Mine is 500, and at least one Std as far as I know of personally. These have been shipped or near ready to ship, and have not been counted in this speculative number of games built?. Build number does Not reflect the number of games that have been built. Way out, there.
Didn't the charity auction game, #750 Std, get built already too? 
This crap reminds me of the invoice gate nonsense from the original thread

They will be done when they are done.
A measured approach is better than rushing pins out. I wonder what sort of issues are possible... Print quality inconsistencies? Cracking clear coat? Hmmm.
I trust Spooky.
I don't think we should get mad at people for being excited and eager to know when their number will be up.
The hubbub last time was due to predictions being made based on incomplete information and frankly incompatible (as it turned out) promises from Spooky, although in the end it was generally agreed that they would do what's best and fair, given the instant sellout something had to give, they deserved any slack they needed.
My silver lining is that these delays mean I'll for sure have the money when mine comes up.
Quoted from zaphX:Indisputably accurate statement
... as well as a lazy tautology!
Quoted from Rarehero:Got my #170 invoice the other day! I got schwifty. Then I had to clean the shit off the floor.
I hope you pulled down your panties first. 
Also, epic avatar.
edit: damn nice collection you got there!!!!! Thats like a large selection of my dream pins!!!
Quoted from JustEverett:Ahhh that's interesting. Didn't know that. Bring on the slut dragons!
[quoted image]
I doubt it gets to that extent, but a mode where every target yells 'slut!' 'slut!' with the whip snap (like willhelm) would be a nice diversion to make people's eyebrows raise.

Quoted from jonesjb:I notice on Morty's choice selection, some adventures have the option of being multiplied by the number of green stamps, and others aren't multiplied. What are the rules on how this works?
You can only have multipliers on the modes you haven't beat in the current game.
Quoted from adamross:Does the new code have START ADVENTURE automatically qualified at game start, rather than having to shoot the ramps? Maybe this change was in the release notes and I missed it?
Yes. Also yes.

His initial ask was 13k, but that quickly dropped to 11.5k. I'm guessing he's raising cash for JJP GNR which is all he can talk about these days.

Not trying to start any conversation or thread here on RM thread about Kaneda but I just wanted to say as per his usual routine. He couldn’t help himself and takes a dig at whatever he talks about by adding the nonsense about the lcd.
(How typical)
I listened to some of his content to get info but mostly had to skip, skip, skip, through all the BS. Miss the info but not the BS.
Ok, I won’t say any more. 
Quoted from kidchrisso:#635 checking in...how long?
Roy’s probably gonna be this old by the time you get your #635 and he’ll probably be dead by the time I get #653.

But seriously probably a year or so.

Other way around.. he asked for $11.5k around 1pm today, then about 7 hours later posted a new ad in the rick and morty group for $13k saying he put the wrong price in but the pinball marketplace takes forever to update changes. Good luck to him getting $13k for a used game, especially with a butter cabinet that will probably get messed up during shipping.

Hopefully playing 100% by then with tweaks being standard...

Coming from Kaneda, that does make more sense. Funny you should mention messing up the butter, I had the exact same thought.
