I could go one of those .

That watch looks like Steve lifted it from Capt. Nemo's quarters on the Nautilus.

how do you do it? i can't break 20 million, and never even sniffed a 10mil point song jackpot. what \am i doing wrong and/oor missing here?

maybe i'm just that bad at pinball, LOL. if that's the case, then I graciously accept the reality and temper my expectations based on this fact. no wizard modes for me I guess

I could jump into the trash talk bandwagon but I’m going to embarrass myself when I can barely make it to 2M

On another note, has anyone noticed while playing “It’s so easy” that the last line of text on the playfield screen is partially covered by the playfield back border? Only noticed this happening on this song. Wondering if it is just my screen being misaligned or maybe something that needs to be worked on by JJP.

never put a prophelactic on your game. It's too much work and effort, and takes away from the fun

how in God's green earth did he reach 259 million points? I mean come ON! I'm about to start a thread here on who among us believes that Karl is not a human, but an alien sent to our planet to ensure that we humans are inferior in every way. no way that score is achieved by a bona fide human. no way

… hahahahaha
I was MIA the whole day and the 1st thing that I read is this one Chaka… ☝️

… I also got today the nut in Home Depot for the long post, so I’ll be connected in about 20 minutes and you will see who’s the Boss here boi

… and after Chaka, Scream…

Following you guys and will be ready to rumble for a Vegemite sanga when I get home from work next week
Game is so good and some friendly rivalry will make it even better.
Im Ando RPA if anyone wants to add.

I just added you mate

Pay more attention to the badges. Lock more balls (6 if possible) before starting the song. Ideally you want a few badges and 6 balls to head into the song.

I’m just now starting to get scores in the 20-30 million range. For me, yes it’s about the patches, but I seem to get more of those and better song values when I successfully stack the pre-song multiballs. And always lock all 6 to start a song if you can.

And for goodness’ sake, cash out when you’re nervous!! I watched too much Karl and came into this thing with a real jagoff cowboy “lay it on the line” mentality. Karl is a bad influence and someone should start a media blitz, a series of PSAs letting people know about the Dangers of DeAngelo. That’s the title of the after school special.

Also, we should rank songs from easiest to hardest. November Rain is my biggest jackpot, so I know that’s the easiest. How I love when my stage screen says Hit Everything!

Then this evening I played Welcome to the Jungle, and had one ball left with three shots to finish the mode. Hit a ramp. Hit an orbit. Hit the inner loop? Crap! Drained after three bricks.

I chained a bunch of encores on Chinese Democracy songs and had an amazing score. Once.

While I'm talking about the songs - Civil War bugs me because the light show seems very literal, at one point even having solid red and solid blue hotrails opposite each other. The song isn't literally about OUR civil war, but war in general. All human war is civil war is the viewpoint. It'd make a lot more sense to line up participant flag colors for specific wars scrolling on opposing hot rails throughout the song to represent various conflicts worldwide. You could even have the lights wash across the playfield from one side to the other to "take out" lights on each side. By representing wars worldwide over the last century or so, it'd be a lot better fit for the song. IMO.

And the only dog of a song for pinball play is Patience. Went to the trouble of unlocking it, then pretty quickly realized it SUCKED for pinball. Much rather have Knockin' on Heaven's Door.

Great to see , should be fun .
I'm realising it's going to be tricky to remember who everyone is , when people have different names and avatars , but we'll get there .
Good to have someone in the same time zone

Best tonight… just warming

Well once we take off 40% for a 5 ball game , looks like we could battle it out for E division championship

Hey hey hey
Its 3 balls only

Haha

For competition sure .
If someone wants to play 5 ball games , I have no problem with that . It's just fun to stir a bit

LMAO

I don't mind saying that I'll have to wait for someone to explain this one to me.

Edit. It's early. I GOT IT! LOL

If you are referring to my post above, forward slash - back slash.

Joining the club today - picking up my GNR LE in an hour from GAP. Gonna be a great day!

Thanks guys! I'm proud to say I got it on my own before seeing your posts. Took way too long and robbed me of the enjoyment that was experienced by DeathHimself

Congrats!! You're gonna love it. Out ta get me, with 6 balls locked is just incredible

Did you let your Halloween go ?

Decided not to just yet - it Will be arriving next week and I’m going to give it a shot. I’m sure I’ll have no problem selling it if it isn’t for me. Theme is 100% up my alley but I have some concerns on gameplay, which is more important (IMO).

Best of luck what ever you decide . There have been a few mixed reviews about it .
It sounds like they've been limited by the assets they can get .

... Grabbing my popcorn. Love these kind of posts.. Can't wait to see how this plays out.

Blu I am actually in Midlothian va as well

Nothing like unboxing your brand new game and seeing that they forgot to pack the leg levelers and utility tool. Great CS so far as they are helping me out on a Saturday - Headed up to JJ to pick up the accessories now.

… two days in a row, I just woke up and found this … I’ll be damned man

…I’ll have to pass this one SilkySox, that interview will take me 6 days to read

I went with a key chain and painted it chrome. I think it's a nice fit.

So I took the ramp off and adjusted it.

Now this comes up. It's not really effecting anything. But I think I out it back together correctly. It's the same as the left ramp.

Is this accurate or do I need to fix it and how?

Thanks everyone.

Tests - Switches - Matrixed - roll a ball though, does it register on the screen ? No, adjust it. Or the black plastic cap on the switch might be holding the switch arm down the gate triggers. Remove it, if that doesn't do it, the arm needs to be bent near where the gate lifts it so it triggers.

LTG : )

Thanks for the quick response. Bent it up a little, moved the black hood up s bit as well. Send to be registering and working. There is no error now.

I really like that! Where do you get it? Link?

Nate at JJ is a great guy! Helped out a ton and went above and beyond.

Does anyone have the art of pinball bullet shooter rod. I just got mine and it has a lot of wiggle or play in it. The stock one didn't have any. It sucks because when trying to hit the skill shot it's sloppy.... is there another sleeve I can get for this shooter rod?

What did the supplier say?

Is there one in there ?

I emailed Dave at Little Shop of Games and never heard back over a week ago....

How long did it take for them to take your money?

My bottom right flipper is all of a sudden not going all the way back to resting position after giving it a clean the other day. I can push it back with the glass off, but the problem returns after first flip. I haven't had a chance to open up the plqyfield yet, but I suspect it's a loose spring. Anything I should know?

Loose coil stop. Or broken spring.
