This thread will be for discussion, development, and distribution of a Dialed In! Rulesheet.

This first post in the thread will always link to the latest version for easy reference.

The latest version is currently here --> https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/dialed-in-rulesheet#post-3851000

First draft... very rough... need help but let's start that process.

Quoted from TheLaw:

Nice job
FYI - "Please forgive the black and white tone of the playfield. It was the only way I could make the reference numbers stand out. "
It's just the normal colored pic with no reference numbers.

Yeah... putting the numbers on there takes a long time so I'm deferring that until the next revision. Wanted to get this out sooner than later.

FYI: That is also a pic of the prototype playfield as I haven't found any high res photos of the final playfield. (Same for rulecard)

Thank you!!! I'm planning on it... and hobbit... just have so little time compared to when I was single and without kids.

Quoted from jonesjb:

What do the spiders do?

This is alluded to in the rulesheet based upon the below:

I've observed that when you hit a spider it shows up on the screen and gives a spider value... if you hit it again it increases the spider value. Same for Kilowatts (from hitting QED) and Transits (from hitting one or both ramps - don't know which). I've seen Transits collected at the theater. I'd GUESS you also have to hit the theater to collect spiders and kilowatts.

The other thing I noticed is that say you hit a spider... if you hit a kilowatt or transit before collecting then it switches to that... so I think after hitting the spider you have to collect at theater before hitting a ramp or QED!!! (Unless maybe you can use the flippers to cycle through what is lit for collect at the theater...) In the end... a lot of guessing without verification so far.

From the Manual:

After collecting 3 spiders you will get the "Spider Spinner" feature. [I have no clue what that is but would guess a high scoring spinner for a certain amount of time.]

After collecting 3 Kilowatts you will get the "Kilowatt Drops" feature. [I have no clue what this is.]

After collecting 3 Transits you will get the "Train Bash" feature. [This was in the 3 hour video: During Train Bash you must hit the door (image in theater) to collect a transit bonus. (I think 3 hits are required to collect the bonus and then you've bashed open the door and get the chance to bash a new door... probably times out).]

Thanks everyone... keep the feedback coming!

Also, I'd love it if someone could scan or photo the "final" rulecard and post it here or PM me.

New version with many updates and corrections... but still likely many errors and omissions. Spoiler alert in that details on wizard modes were added.

Quoted from jonesjb:

Is it fair to say that the theme isn't 'cell phones', but 'disaster movie'?

I'd agree with that.

Quoted from Kevlar:

Is this rulesheet still being developed?

Yes but it depends upon others contributing as I don't own a game myself and haven't had to time to figure out all the nuances.

For now I'd say the tilt forums version (which I originated with the same text as the original version of this rulesheet) is the most up to date (and likely where I'd start from with an update).
