    Quoted from chessiv:

    Jack, shutting me up is bs and you know it. One of your ex-employees and I were laughing about that whole story a couple of weeks ago. You had the market in your hand. If you were transparent with people you would have had the most loyal customer base. You only have yourself to blame for your issues.

    We HAVE the most loyal customer base now. We appreciate and love them all.

    You my friend are still pissed off that we did not use your pinball 2000 mod boardset in our games. Move on already.

    I did not design the game myself. I can't take the credit, I can take the blame. First game from a new company, not a bad effort and it will be finished, working and everyone will have their games. That's what we are working towards, everything positive and growing pinball. Not being negative and pissing on people who build up.

    Oh, some of your people there are moving on too. Last time I whispered in moo cow's ear, you shut up allright.

    Like I said, as a stockholder of a public company, I get to say something too....

    Quoted from dgoett:

    How's that? They have shipped fewer Woz's than just the STLE's. Stern builds in a month what JJP has shipped in 10 months. AND, I wouldn't say the "playability" is ahead either. Woz is a dog compared to STLE.
    I chose STLE to compare apples to apples price wise.
    I wouldn't say Gary's "scared as Hell", either. His sales are up 300%+ since 2008 and has the "pro" price point of the market cornered.

    WOZ is a dog compared to STLE? I'm sorry but any game with a left ramp / right ramp / middle ramp will always play faster then a game like TZ, WOZ, LOTR, TSPP, etc and that is due to far less being on the playfield. Does that make it better though and does every game have to have that layout to be fun? While those layouts are fun people also want games like WOZ with ton's of shots, toys, features, etc. There's room for both types of games just like how there's room for Ferrari and Rolls-Royce

    I think the rear view mirror comment was intended to mean that JJP has passed Stern in innovation and tech in their machines. After buying a NIB ACDC and NIB WOZECLE last year I agree. Stern games are a lot of fun, they can build 3-5 machines a year but JJP is making the Cadillac of pinball machines right now and leading the way in innovating pinball. It also helps getting regular code updates, providing feedback to your customer base and being open to customer feedback.

    I am assuming chessiv works for Stern but I can be almost certain chessiv IS NOT on the list for The Hobbit!

    Was pretty funny how you pissed all over the WOZ theme then you get a job working for a company that is making an online game with the WOZ theme......that's funny!

    Maybe Stern could get the patent for shipping games with incomplete code, thus forcing all other manufacturers to ship games only with completed code.

    Maybe it was a typo and he meant licking?

    Note to Jack and Chessiv ... I don't know either of you but there is obviously a lot of animosity here! As Tigerlaw stated this may be best for two to go at it via PM. A public forum is not the place as neither one of you will come out looking good!

    Sorry to the mods and everyone else but I can't let jack come on here and lie. The first time I was approached to supply you with Nucore don and I were only offered stock in the company and no cash. I refused as I would only take cash as I didn't trust you to be in control of payment in the form of stock. The second time I was approached we were offered the same, no cash, just stock. I laughed because I refused to first time. The third offer that came in was stock for the tourament code and the jukebox. I refused yet again due to no cash offer. That is the real story and we weren't working for free.

    Hmmm, no wonder Cheesiv would always give me a hard time every time I said something positive about Woz!

    I think Williams owns the p2k stuff, but I could be wrong

    You my friend are on to something here!!!! You should get this idea patent immediately than STERN would also have to ship machines with finished code!!!

    Hey guys, I'm the only mod on right now and I'm not comfortable with the back and forth that I've requested be stopped...I'm locking the thread and linking to Robin to review when he wakes up in hour or two.
