    Insider Connect, worth it?

    I had never bothered with Disco multiball on DP until it was a badge. A touch harder on a premium Aerosmith was not a problem to finish a starting mode. Week 5.....

    New Pinballer

    I dont head past the GTA that way. If they were closer I would suggest VFW to get a nice sized list. Lucky I even head to Pinfest. Need to find a back road way there. The main road has few passing opportunities. Fewer with a pin in the back.

    New Pinballer

    My advice would be to wait until the next show. Either the Ottawa show or pinfest and go with the intent to buy and bring something home that day. Otherwise, make a short wish list and wait to jump on it when one becomes available.

    Do Stern armor kits come with screws?

    I want to be able to remove them if need be later. If the kit has a set, then it should all work out in the end.

    Do Stern armor kits come with screws?

    I am looking at DP armor. Want to pwder coat the rails coming off. Will want to do the screw heads to match. Will I be hitting the hardware store? They certainly don't come in JJP rail replacement boxes.

    Bally wizard reset

    It's been a long time since Wizard (20+ years) I manually turned the rotary wheel inside and reset a few times ,just to have random start points. Old game, old wire, good luck. I took a small file and cleaned contacts for hours on end. Eventually, I couldn't get a regular EM guy. Had to step up...

    Pinball Medics 25% Tariff Surcharge

    I am kinda hoping for some time off now that the weather is getting nice. I can live on EI, if I somehow get laid off. I have been assured that shutting down would not effect my dept (facilities) as there is always things to paint, preventative maintenance. Maybe a few small 'tariffs group...

    WTB Deadpool Alt translight

    I am not a huge fan of the Prem chimichanga overload. Looking for one of the non-Stern alts Hopefully in country. If it's in the US, it's going to wait until the dollar gets better.

    Insider Connect, worth it?

    I can really see how it is worth it for operators. It made it easy to find pins in Vegas. I could see in the future that you checking into my arcade could identify you as an owner of a connected machine. Tip off the retailers when owners are in house. I've like to see IC code just for shows to...

    Insider Connect, worth it?

    I personally think it is worth the $ Almost half my (private) sales go to people that are connected to location pins. The badges have me turning on my dog with IC just to get the badge. Now I am getting a second IC pin as some of the badges require more than one pin, or are not available to my...

    Maintenance

    In 5 years from buying my Pro, it has gone thru 3 nodes and a cpu. I did also replace some optos that were out. I look up what is wrong, Watch a few YouTube videos, Call in a Pro when it is out of my wheelhouse. About 50% of my problems have come up on the self audit at start up. Optos, won't...

    Off to Vegas

    PHoF Fun place, have a screen shot of your Stern IC code (no free wifi to connect) I would say at least 50% were turned off. I played Aerosmith as I have it at home, and the toybox lock target didn't register. My wife broke the trunk in ToM (or maybe it was already broke) Anyhow, still many...

    Freemont arcade had no pins. The silver strike machines were pretty good, but I didn't win any yellow caps with 1.5 oz of silver. Have to settle for the .6 oz ones
