I want to be in the TRON club, but there are none for sale around me Nobody who has one seems to want to let them go in Canada...especially not the heavily modified ones!

I think Labnip has one for sale.

Did he take his pictures with a gameboy camera?

I want a Tron, but those prices are just silly.

#4648 8 years ago
Quoted from centerflank:

How does one truly price a TRON? No more will ever be made*

Haven't had much time to play since getting my Tron, since I've been on vacation in Mexico all week. Got home, played a couple rounds, finally cracked into sea of simulation and got up into the high scores! Feelsgoodman.jpeg

I need some ideas for LED colors and placement. My machine has LED's throughout, but it's a lot of cool whites; I want more color! The illuminated apron showed up today, and the flippers have the matching split of color for the rubbers, so I am thinking I definitely want to stick to those oranges, blues and yellows, but with the wires doing red, green and purple as well, it wouldn't hurt to get some of those in. Basically, everything above the lower slings and outlanes is going to get an overhaul. Any ideas?

#4916 8 years ago

I ordered a set of translucent rubbers from Titan Pinball, I can update on those with some pics once they arrive and I get them installed.

#4919 8 years ago

Titans are a different blend of silicone, from what I understand. I've used them before on someone else's machine and they feel more like traditional rubbers. That being said, superbands might be better because they grip better and when that ball comes spinning out of the disc like a mofo, you might want that extra grip. I don't know, we'll see!

Quoted from CaryCarmichael:

Ya know what, 946286, you've always been a very positive dude on the Tronside, I know you will be there for your family.
May the Jeff Bridges' be with you.

My scores are nowhere near yours, but, in a strange coincidence I got High Score #2 just last night, and my initials I use are TY, but stranger still, my last name starts with a D. You gave your Tron the D, for me!

#5155 8 years ago
Quoted from CaryCarmichael:

That's hilarious! I love giving the D!
I've been asked a few times why my initials aren't my real initials - not that you asked - but it came from my high school years. I'd been using the acronym for Throw Your Desk for other situations. Then when I finally got on a score board, it was the first I thought to use, and it stuck, much to my mom's disapproval. She thinks I lack Carmichael pride.
Congrats on another score on the Board! It's funny on games we own and play a lot, how difficult it becomes to get our initials stamped in for a high score.
Cheers!

Haha, I love those little stories. It's hilarious that you've hit a "we've come too far to change it now" scenario, when there was never a real reason to change it except tradition. It's better than most peoples initials on here which probably have the thrilling story "well...it's the initials of my name..." hahah

I don't know if my problem is me just not nailing my shots or some kind of setup issue, but I played for half an hour yesterday and was bricking 90% of my shots to Quorra (where it does that bounce back and forth between the ramp on the left and the recognizer post). It seems like I just wasn't in the zone, but has anyone had a problem like this with their machine that DID actually end up being some kind of issue with a fix?

#5550 8 years ago
Quoted from Silverballer:

Check the "U" target and you will probably find it leaning to the right and blocking a clean shot to Quorra. Loosen, straighten and tighten it back down and you should be good to go.

I was looking at it and it seems like this could be the only thing throwing it off, so I'll definitely be having a look at that. Thanks!
