Quoted from Russo121:If my woman sees a pic of Predator with his mouth open on a pin i own she would accuse me of 'being obsessed by vaginas'.
I think it's time to have a talk to her about men.

You are obsessed, I don't see it.

U must be interested in a different class of woman! 
Quoted from T-800:how cool would it be if after you drain or before a mode - all lights go dark, uv kicks on and BAM! there's one pissed off Predator staring you down right in the middle of the playfield...
Who let this guy into the super-secret back room??

Hey my wife saw the T-shirt and said "Who or what is Shit-B?" I told her it's "Skit-B" and she said that "k" font looks more like an "h" than a "k".
I tried to stick up for you but you have one person out there calling you Shit-B. I guess it could stand for "Some hoodlums in the basement".

She's definitely not the only one. You know what it's like to be having a burger with Steve Ritchie and have him look closely at your shirt and say, "...does that say 'shit'?" The hoodlums comment is better than anything we've come up with for it, so far, though

coooooool.... Goddamn Jackpot.
ps. thanks for the shirt!! looks even better in person.
pps. your logo rocks. if people see something other than "skit-b" I think they have something else on their minds...
My stomach hurts for video. So hungry. Hell, I'll even take the old ones back.
Whatchu doin awake at 4 in the morning Skit B???? You guys start smoking meth to deal with the deadlines?
Quoted from mr-zed:Kevin - did you just reveal something?
No. Scott did.
Quoted from playboywillis:Whatchu doin awake at 4 in the morning Skit B???? You guys start smoking meth to deal with the deadlines?
Just programmers' hours. Meth probably wouldn't be a bad idea, though, now that you mention it.

Meth is what poor white folk use. They are into pinball so they are rich white folk.

Naw, you're a programmer, stick with Coke

Lmao, nice Steve Ritchie story and glad I could help with the other nickname.
Quoted from corvair61:Skit-B is on Facebook!
Also on Twitter now as well. If you'd like to follow us there, you can use the following link:

Google+ coming shortly, as well, if anyone uses that... :-/
All of this is part of our little internet 'reboot.' The website will be back up in a little while, too. Getting ready for some big things to happen very soon!
Quoted from vster23:Hey Kevin, I saw a schedule for the chicago expo but didn't see a Predator seminar. Are you guys doing a seminar? I did notice that you guys are on a PROC panel.

I think I, personally, am going to be involved in between 3~5 seminars over the course of the weekend. We're still working out our own right now.
Quoted from NinJaBooT:I really need an update or a sneak peek of something. The suspense is killing me.
We are aware that it has been pretty dark over here for quite a while, but don't fret. It's all going to hit at once
As a buyer, I am truly amazed at the lack of communication and information. Surprised time was spent on a new site, but not an ounce of time was spent putting up just one page dedicated to the single largest project ever done by Skit B.
This is meant to be constructive, because if anyone drops out of their preorder, it is for this reason only. Buyers need to have some confidence in Skit B I order to send $5k of hard earned money.
Quoted from SkitBPinball:New website is up now. Predator news coming soon, guys!
Well, they did say the pred news was coming soon.
I am concerned with the small team though. This game is (from what they last told us) near release. Producing 250 machines is nothing to sneeze at. I don't believe there have been 250 WOZ's produced yet, with the millions of financing and dozens of employees, not to mention engineers, etc.
Then there are the little things, like the website going away for a makeover, and now that it's back on it says Kevin is the webmaster, which means he was working on the website during this time.
There is so much work ahead, is it possible a couple of dudes can carry this through to the end?
Quoted from SkitBPinball:New website is up now. Predator news coming soon, guys!
Glad the website is up. Can't wait for the big reveal!!! I'm assuming it will be at the expo.
Quoted from ovfdfireman:Buyers need to have some confidence in Skit B I order to send $5k of hard earned money.
My understanding is that when the machine is next seen we will have a lot more stuff to see and they will be ready for release. I think it was smart for them to pull back a bit while they are going through the frustrating and time consuming parts supplier ordering portion of the project. They are doing all this on less than a shoe string budget and get a couple extra passes in my book (especially since they have only taken refundable deposits from people).
Kevin,
In another thread there was discussion that Predator was going to have some color changing LED lighting tied to the code? In my view, this is the biggest innovation in pinball over the past decade or so. Can you confirm that Predator is going to have color changing LED lighting tied to the code?
Thanks!

Personally I really don't care if SKIT-B fall off the radar for months at a time. At the end of the day they don't have $5k of my money (just $250) and I'd rather that they spend their time designing, tweaking and building machines. We can then make a decision based on a finished product rather than sneaked out bits of info.
Compare this to JJP asking for thousands for a machine that is 18 months away based on a pic of a playfield layout.
Obviously I'd like more info (who wouldn't) but I doubt many people would drop out for this reason at this time
no one is dropping out, or talking about it, until the machines are done I'm sure, but the blackout makes less sense now as we get close to the finish.
