There is an Eight Ball Deluxe in my garage. Very similar issue. It is powered down. If anyone was planning on visiting my garage please be warned that EBD is down. There is a Mata Hari in the basement that is playing GREAT though. MH is playing like a total ass kicker right now.

Oh, WOZ? NYC? Go to Reciprocal in NYC and play Jon's. that was the first production WOZ I played and it is just amazing. 1.14 felt like a real game. My favorite part? TNPLH, although I wasn't able to finish it. And the burger place on the next block (Brunddle? Sp?), fantastic. Brooklyn beer, steak burger, hand cut fries, and WOZ all within a block of each other.

I want to hook a hitch shitter to my pickup, lay this thread on the ground under it and....
Well you get the idea image.jpg

True true....

Your good to go with WOZ. The game could have been a prototype or just have a minor technical issue that only a tech with the ability to take the glass off could fix. I know when I got my ACDC Premium this year that an LED bulb came off within my first 5 games and was flinging around the playfield. After I fixed that issue a piece of the mechanical band fell off. If my machine was on route anyone could have just turned the machine off until the issues were fixed. The game has been rock solid since. Nearly every review from WOZ home owners and people playing the game on route has been positive with many being extremely impressed with the game. For a game so new and complex WOZ has had very few issues and JJP support has been quick to address any that arise.

I always call before I travel to a place with pins to ask what they have and what is working. It is always a two part question - We have a WOZ - yes and is it working - no.
Do I get a great update of how well each pin is working from am Jedi Pinhead every time a call - no, but sometimes I do.
A one minute phone call could of saved an hour of driving.

Slanderstorm?

this thread should be documented. as a perfect example of a self fulfilling prophecy.

lets all attack the OP because he went to play a machine and it was broken in some way.... yes, yes, that will do nicely

Well you are misquoting the facts quite a bit here. It was not the OP, it was his "buddy" at an undisclosed location, with a machine powered off for unknown reasons. For all we actually know somebody reached under WOZ, snapped off the power, stood back, and snapped a picture. A picture may be worth a thousand words, but an out of context one doesn't actually show anything. Hence, the storm clouds for the dark rain.

In such scenarios, I find it helpful to:
Ask the proprietor "what's up with the _____ machine"

It could be any number of reasons:
1. Gary Stern had threatened them to keep it off to drive up MET playtime
2. Earning were so high the entire cabinet had filled with cash and they were awaiting extra security to be able to empty all the money safely
3. Their neighbor across the street has epilepsy and the LEDs were causing them distress

Etc.

What's the big deal? Rumor has it that WoZ is just as fun to play off as it is on...

Awesome!

Should've turned the Met off too... since the rumor is a Stern earns the same amount off as on.

(Yes, people, this is humor, not malice, and kudos to anyone who gets the reference.)

Even turned off or not working people still love it !
That is the mark of success and no shit storm will damper that love.

Now back to shitnado and the extended forecast.

Yes this.

Someone may have simply turned it off and there is nothing wrong with it. No out of order sign on it or anything.

LTG : )

Urine line with my thinking on these WoZ threads, that is deficantly a possibility.

Imagine that - a pinball machine out on location that is broken in some way or turned off because you know that's never happened before ever. Oh the scandal!

I can't believe someone started a thread about a broken game on location. If I had a dollar for every broken pinball machine I've seen out in the wild I'd have more than enough money to buy a WOZ and all the other expensive fancy new pins coming out.

Looks like you mean this place:

I've never been, but I'll look into it next time I get to Reciprocal.

Brindle burgers ROCK. Seriously.

Now. Now. For all you know the machine may not have had any money.

Just got home from vacation and found this thread on my journey to Mugs Ale House in Brooklyn.I was in NY with the family and researched places to play pinball in the area.Hadn't played WOZ or Met so took the subway to Brooklyn to play them.When I walked in the door WOZ was turned off,Met was on and working.I examined the game and found a rubber had broken at the top and the ball had gotten trapped in behind it.I sent this picture to my friend as to let him know I made an attempt to find WOZ and play it but this is what I found.I played Met and drank beer for about 2 hours,had a good time.

Hotel room in Manhattan - $300

Train to Brooklyn - $2

Playing pins and drinking beer - priceless

Did you tell your friend that it was turned off due to the broken rubber?

I guess if this thread it the worst thing he experiences from a broken rubber then life is not too bad...
