#3577 8 years ago

went to 6th st tonight. Saw 1 pin folded under the stairs in a bar.
Looks like pinside is readable now on phone, but think the karma stuff vanished.

What has the world come to ?!?!?

Happy Tron Friday

#3585 8 years ago
Quoted from Hougie:

Do you guys prefer the chrome or black pop caps from Hooked? I have been thinking about picking some up.

Chrome. they're amazing

#3590 8 years ago
Quoted from DocRotCod:

You guys have issues with the chrome rings moving around? I've thought about using some double-sided tape or something to hold them in place.

yup. 1 of them would slowly rotate. put a dab of glue under it and stays great now

#3693 8 years ago
Quoted from Saveleaningtower:

Hello tron experts - wanted a price opinion on my nib TRON LE and nos TRON LE play field. Thanks. And no worries - my huo TRON LE isn't going anywhere Have a great day.

hmmm... it's a tough one.
depends on if you value the game more or want the money.
honestly, i wouldn't sell my HUO out-of-box Tron LE for less than $30,000.00 USD. A few mods included & 2 translites.
But, i value the pin more than the $ right now & I don't have 2 of them
I guess the factors are:
How soon do you want to sell it?
Is it taking up space that could be used for something else?
Can you use (or need) the money now more than later?
Will you regret selling it (even at any price), or is there a price point that makes you say, "i'm ok with it being gone".
Are you not being buried in it, like I am mine
blablabla...

#3704 8 years ago
Quoted from Erik:

Lapnip will sell you his 3d translite! He hates Jeff Bridges. Probably America too!

especially if Jeff Bridges is IN america. That's a double wammy! almost as bad as 2 giant Jeff Bridges head-shots looming over the playfield at ya while playin'

#3711 8 years ago
Quoted from MK6PIN:

Only 916 on mine....judging by my recent success, I'll be at 1500 in no time ( this game has been just brutal on me for so long, can't get a long game in)...wish I was better at it, but LOVE the game....
Suspect I dodge it on a night or so here and there, when I'm looking to get my initials up, or just not get the shit kicked out of me in record time.

super rubbers

#3713 8 years ago
Quoted from MK6PIN:

Already living there...( orange and blue of course) ....hard to describe....game is so addicting, it's probably my favorite, but also scares the hell out of me....rules are pretty straightforward, but the game is at such a pace, I can't ever really get ahold of it.
I'll have a "WOZ" night, or "SM" night, etc., where I only play that machine, and can usually make some headway ( comfort level)....
"TRON" nights....lets me in, but can never get to that confidence level....probably move to 5 ball, and start cradling the hell out of balls.....
Make no mistake....I live to beat this thing...

She's a might battle that knows no mercy on any of us punish seekers

#3922 8 years ago
Quoted from QuarterGrabber:

The real question is instead of ugly black marks all over your playfield will you now have ugly blue marks all over your playfield with the blue disc?

i have ugly clear marks all over mine

#3923 8 years ago
Quoted from centerflank:

Going to the local Truck Stop isn't a vacation, how many times do I have to tell you that?

But that's the only place i can make some extra tron mod money on the side...

#3928 8 years ago
Quoted from DaveH:

I was just being a pu$$y earlier because of the work to put it in. This mod is amazing! Once you get a game rocking, wow. And now my Tron finally matches the decor of the room! (Pardon all the crap and tools still out).

Every day is Tron love day

#4030 8 years ago
Quoted from Hougie:

I keep going back and forth about the arcade mod. It seems so expensive for what it is, imo.
What order of importance do you guys stack the mods?
For me:
1 - Eli Ramps
2 - LEDs
3 - External sub
4 - Light Cycles
5 - Shaker
6 - ....

7. All the above

I am going to do the Pop bumber upgrade. What is your guys preference. I have seen both Black and Chrome Black is much cheaper at $79.99 and Chrome is $109.99. From the photos I can't tell what I prefer and wanted to ask my Tron Brothers what they have installed and which in their opinions is better.

chrome !

Quoted from lyonsden:

I've been working on replacing the GI and Eli ramps with addressable LEDs on my Tron. Figured those in this thread would be interested in seeing some of the progress so far.

Good luck getting that!
Chime in LE owners, how often do you get Daft Punk multi at stock setting?

With or without the playfield glass on ?

#4426 8 years ago
Quoted from Chosen_S:

I'm guessing because stern only wanted it in the LE

You need an LE Rom, which will only work in the LE
At least I'm 99.99% sure

Quoted from MK6PIN:

Sheesh....how can TRON be getting slayed by both MET and AC/DC!!!......I call pinball envy...

I think we have to normalize the votes by dividing down each by the number manufactured for each.

Then what's the votes look like?

That backs out some of the variable related to quantity of owners who have each pin.

Suck it, Zach Braff.

Super Troopers 2, the sequel to the ever-quotable 2001 cop comedy, earned $4.4 million on Indiegogo in 30 days, or “42 percent more than the $3.1 million for Zach Braff’s Wish I Was Here.” Most people would be content in the knowledge that they bested the Garden State star and writer, but not Broken Lizard — they won, and after years of speculation, they’re putting the money to good use… actually making Super Troopers 2. The cast, including The Desk guests Jay Chandrasekhar and Steve Lemme, have been taking photos from the set in Massachusetts to prove, no, really, this is finally happening.

The time is meow!

There’s no official plot description yet (all we know is that the sequel will take place a few months after the original), but don’t worry, the boys did promise “more male nudity.” That long 14-year wait will be worth it the first time (I assume it will happen many times) Farva dips his junk into a liter of cola. That’s actually where most of the $4.4 million budget went to.

Liters of cola ain’t cheap. Couldn’t have done it without the fans.

Ps. Meow go play Tron !

Quoted from PeterG:

Played some games yesterday, the spin after the ball is grabbed by the new disc is awesome! I have seen some crazy things in a few playes. Like getting out of the disc and making the Gem shot itself. Even getting up a ramp by itself. Maybe it also has to do with some cleaning of the playfield with SuperFlip but it is just amazing....almost a new game! I can't keep leaving it alone......

Yup

GENIUS!!! Did you use a sledgehammer or a jackhammer? Just want to make sure I do it right!

Flanker mailed me a jar of secret sauce with instructions to apply generously on each bulb. After waiting a few mins, the bulbs unscrewed themselves and ran screaming out the door. Who knew

Quoted from kporter946286:

Not that many of you know me personally, but last Saturday night my Dad suffered a rupture in his brain stem and was put on life support. B/c he was an organ donor the process took a few days but He was officially pronounced dead Tuesday and I will be burying him Friday. Reason I bring this up is because he was an Organ donor and even at 77 years old, a Cold Coors light drinking bad boy motor head guy still was able to donate his liver to a 40 year old and kidneys to a 60 year old and help save 2 lives. If your not, you should think about being an organ donor. Its amazing what they can do. And you never know whom you can help save. I've been absent on here the past week and will be for a few more days while I attend to my Fathers' Funeral.

Sorry for your loss.

Ok. Sorry about that. In retrospect I am a bit jealous of you TRON owners.
To make it up to the 'board' I have attached some pictures of my house to show my, um, commitment to the cause.
However, instead of drinking Marnier straight - I would rather have some of Austin's pride Tito's vodka in a martini
Perhaps Labnip would approve?

Pastor Flank Can you pass the following prayer to the TRON Gods."Dear Tron Gods, Please forgive me as I have been coveting another Pinball machine, these last 3 days. I know that I should not be looking at another machine with such desire. The name of that Pinball is Ghostbusters. Grant me the serenity and Will to stay True to you O' TRON~AMEN"

Tronbros,
My Arcade Cabinet screen is not working, lights up ( joystick, bezel and flasher all good ) has anyone ever experienced a fault of the similar nature that could shed some light on how to get it working again.
As quoted replacing the screen will cost me $130 + shipment and by the time I get this shipped to Australia then I might as well purchase a new one when they produce more units.
Thanks.

I do believe your point is valid ....found it in the code under subsection " Jager", paragraph 7..." One relinquishes all rights to executive or administrative covenants if found to have previously sold, lost or otherwise removed a TRON from their premise"...pretty clear to me.....

I think his regret was strong.

The TRON Run/r soundtrack, composed by Giorgio Moroder and co-composed by Raney Shockne, is getting a release date of May 31st.
In a statement by Christopher Nicholls, executive producer, he says "TRON spans several decades of really innovative music, whether it's Wendy Carlos in the first film or Daft Punk. So we wanted an artist who could really span those generations in a legitimate way. If you go back to the sound of original electro disco in the '70s, Giorgio is right at the heart of it. He's been pushing electronic music his whole career. We wanted to nod to the first film as well as the later incarnations of the series."

06. DELTA ANTLIAE (INVALID PATH revisited - NICHOLLS REMIX) – Giorgio Moroder and Raney Shockne DELTA ANTLIAE (PATTEN REMIX) – Giorgio Moroder and Raney Shockne

08. 611 TIME OUT (AUTECHRE REMIX) – Giorgio Moroder and Raney Shockne

For our new members, "Members Only" is a euphemism for "fans only".
You do not have to own a Tron to participate in this thread. But negative posts will earn a quick ejection.
This thread is for people to share in the greatness that is Tron. If you hate the game or have problems with it, then do not post those complaints in this thread.
This thread is all about the love of Tron.
