Thats impressive. I don't think Karl DeAngelo got a score that high when he had one.

Just a light hit with a blow dryer will settle those creases. I’m assuming felt protectors will stop it happening again.

Are we sure the game was functioning properly? Did he get through 10 adventures and play the 3x one really well? I've had the game for a 1.5 months and only get around 30 mill on the best games.

If you get a really good stack going with an adventure/good dimension/multi ball you can BLOW up a score if you're getting seeds while doing it

I can say for sure the pin was playing properly. He drained the last ball (#4) during the 9th adventure.

This ^^^

Agree. I got 63m the other night, and all I really understand is try to collect Meeseeks and megaseeds. Have no idea about strategies yet. Hit the lit shots. So it only happened because I just happened to stack whatever without a clue. I do take credit for keeping the ball alive.

Megaseeds are the key, and the faster the better since they remain for each ball. A 10 mil ball (which is not hard to achieve with an adventure stacked on a good multi-ball)... add 10 megaseeds and you now have a 20 mil ball, 20 megaseeds becomes a 30 mil ball, etc. Start stacking some meeseeks in the mix and the jackpots really kick in.

Yea my best score is 48 mil and I think 40 of that came from one ball. I almost restarted my game because I played so poorly on the first ball.

I’m not sure of the strategies for Meeseeks Mania, how do the multipliers work on the multi ball, is it just Meeseeks jackpots, or all points associated with the shot, such as in adventure?

Just received the email to pick out options on #423!

I have a question about Meeseeks mania or multiball...

Whenever I’m in the Meeseeks mania/multi ball I always hear the machine say “I’m counting to three Jerry” and then shortly after that I’ll end up draining usually and get the Looserrrrrrr call out.

So my question is this; is there a shot that I’m supposed to make towards the end of Meeseeks mania? It’s so chaotic I never know what the hell I’m supposed to be doing!

Yes. That’s after you drain to one ball... hit the Jerry shot. Miss and hit Summer or Beth and get called a ‘loser’.

Karl got that much on a bonus. Over 200 mil total.

Oooh, ep is back posting. Me thinks a release of an update is around the corner.

Ah ok - I was referring to the 138M score with 33(?) megaseeds:

https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/aw-jeez-official-rick-and-morty-club/page/166#post-5986969

Not trying to second guess the score, it just seems oddly high given the megaseed count and what you describe. I've had some games with 20 plus megaseeds and finished the adventure card only be in that 30 mill ranges.

It's all about crushing "super fuckin jackpots" while in a good dimension while inadvertently hitting meeseeks, & seeds and in Pickle-Rick!! LOL, thats the payoff

Hitting those supers does feel good

That score is are possible if you can stay alive collecting adventures and mega seeds. I got 148 million last week and it was basically on 2 balls. I drained the last 3 balls almost immediately (2 extra balls). I got 36 mega seeds and an 80 million bonus on my second ball. Had a 6x morty’s choice. I tried to get multiball (super jackpots are key) for every adventure and was able to complete 3 of 4 adventures on the second ball. Default 4 card stamps and a loose tilt. The big thing was hitting that big mega seed bonus which took me from 60 mill to 140 mil

#427

WOOHOO! Just submitted my build sheet.

Sh#t just got REAL!

423...

427...

458 can't be far off!

New code yet? Seems like it's been forever, there was pretty regular releases going on back thru summer.

Got the email for my build. Trying to decide whether or not to butter it. I have a 2 yr old who as of now won't be around it. When they do come into contact with them as they get older (crayons, goo, stickers), I assume the butter is easier to fixup and clean?

<Googles chainlink fencing for children>

I chose not to go Butter, as much as i like how it looks it will be safely fit between another pin and a wall.
Kind of hard to showcase that gloss there. If it were standalone where folks might gather around, i may have considered it.

This comment gives me chills just thinking about. If you even have to make that comment I'd not do butter personally. I had my youngest and was always watching him like a hawk around my games. Avoided major disasters for 5 years until he could be trusted not to do something really stupid with them like markers or stickers or things as you mention. Best of luck.

Last code was labeled 2020-10-12 I believe. Not quite 2 months.

Rules question: I just had my best game thanks to a strong Pickle Rick adventure (35M). I rarely get Pickle Rick. What's the algorithm for determining when/if you get Pickle Rick? How are the adventures selected? If it were purely random, I think I'd see Pickle Rick more often...

Haha that's fair. Thanks for the input

Biggest payoff I've seen is gromflomite supers in a 3x dimension (garage for left, right orbit for right). Stack your MB and mode, get meeseeks added in and try to get (and stay) in one of the 3x dimensions collecting supers.

Haven't figured out yet if meeseeks + dimension is multiplicative or additive. 3x right side with a blue 4x meeseeks light = 7x or 12x shot?

Butter decals? Isn't the butter artwork supposed to be directly printed onto the wood, meaning no decals at all?

anyone know how to remove the house? i recall seeing a post not too long ago, but cant find it.

It's random, except for the first adventure allotment (it's only possible from 2nd and beyond)

Don't believe so. I believe butter decals are similar in spirit to Mirco "Rad Cals"...very thick, very glossy decals that are layered/glued to the cabinet. The leg indentations clearly show the artwork isn't directly printed onto the wood...wood doesn't ripple like that

Never mind, I figured it out pretty simple just remove both ramps and then it's two quarter inch screws
On a good note, was able to confirm I spent suspicion that might diverter was not working correctly as posted previously in the thread, just had to lift it up and over so it had full range of motion

I fixed the same exact problem over the weekend (https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/aw-jeez-official-rick-and-morty-club/page/164#post-5984455).

Spooky support said they would tell the build folks, since accessing the diverter is a PITA.

Wonder how it passed the play test with the diverter not working?

Seriously folks, how deep is the appreciation for how great playing and addicting this game is for you guys?
I find it after 5 months owning it as fantastic as the first day still and I’m as still as addicted to pressing Start.

*Even though I can’t seem to get my shooter lane perfected, even as I’ll have 30 perfect shooter lane games, the power seems to be a little volatile from press to press of launch (or Squanch in my case)

Butter cabinets are directly screen printed (or digital, not sure) to the cabinet and then clear coated.

The leg indentations are the same problem as pooling on Playfields. They can be also flattened with heat, like pooling on Playfields.

Although heat won't help in relation to dented wood.

Check the ball isn't catching the wooden rail on the left side of the shooter lane. I spent a few weeks trying to get my shooter lane working properly, I was convinced it was the worst design ever ( it probably still is! ). Ultimately the problem with my machine was this rail was only a hair away from the ball as it passes by, so the ball could just touch it and that would affect the ball speed so it was impossible to get working reliably like that. I had to move the wooden rail slightly towards the right outlane which was more work than it could have been because 1 or 2 of the screws ( below the playfield ) have boards mounted on top of them. You need to remove the portal gun to get a good look as it's directly on top of it.

If that's true, WOW. Even more respect for the craftsmanship that went into the cabinet! I guess it would explain the cost as well. Don't recall who told me butter was based on RadCal-like technology. Thanks for the clarification!

Play testing isn't even required to find the diverter issue...test mode would uncover the very audible plunger binding.

I doubt much play testing is done, since then people would freak out over a NIB game with a few dimples.

This is so true and I can't put my finger on it.

We have a club and we got a new Avengers AIQ Premium, which is the other game I badly wanted this year. I play them both but I can't stop thinking about R&M. I keep hitting the start button and I don't know why. It's like an addiction. Several times I walked in there and said "I'll just play one game" and 2-3 hours later I'm still there.

It's addicting. And when you adjust the inner loop and garage shots and make everything smoother, the portal lights up more often and dimensions are easier to hit and travel through, which makes the game more fun and more dynamic. I've played it for 5+ months now and just hit a brand new dimension the other day. I was in awe! SO FUN!

#398 will be on the line this Thursday. Just in time for my birthday!

Mine (#373) was put on the line 2 weeks ago, so I'm guessing that means mine is shipping out Wednesday(ish). Yay!

Funny that this is mentioned, as I experienced this exact situation for the first time just last night. The LED colors were all "stuck" in a yellow color after a restart on ball 2. Rebooting fixed it, just as you mentioned.

Also have been seeing this issue.

I have played R&M at LCP and got the same vibe i get from my TNA.
IMHO, I believe it has to do with the way the games play sort of like video games.
It's weird to think of a pin playing like a vid, but the goals are clear and the sound ties it all together.

#351 paid in full today expected to ship beginning of next week for those keeping track of builds. Almost there pretty excited to play this pin again.
