Reactions: PUP
It’s not looking likely that his r1 group will get streamed
 
Last place on TNA for Andy, but still in 2nd overall behind Steve Bowden on 6pts
 
@Neil McRae
How are the games being picked for these round?

Seems strange that out of a bank of 15 games used in qualifying only 7 different machines are being used in this round, including WW 3 times .
 
His group is now being followed.

as with all stern circuit events the highest seed picks - TPF local rules is that it has to be a modern a ss and a EM
 
and that "new CPU" looks identical to an Rpi...
In fact have just compared one and it is!!



Oh indeed... and both Mirco and The Tilt guy both in Germany..... Hmm...

It's even got the crappy little Strap-on DC Regulator that his Sound card had on... and the Little Amps...

Funhouse 2.0 uses a off the shelf arduino on the fast pinball cpu board.

RPi is the best answer, why bother designing a CPU when something off the shelf works?

Indeed all the 'add on boards' are just off the shelf products.

It will not take long for the vpin guys to get this running up, then the code will be out and people will make their own 'kit'.

Mirco has a bad name, but he continues to sell his products. People still buy them.

The guy who does the tiltaudio boards is no saint either. Awful at supporting his own products, and in the past has sold PCBs that are incorrect and people have to mod.
 
Anyone watch the TWIPYs?
Lol.....

I watched it on YouTube the other day, My goodness it was a hard watch tbh, so many things seemed to go wrong, audio and wrong categories etc etc 🤦‍♂️

The highlight was seeing Pinball Heaven and Gonzo get a mention 😃

^^^ Yeah, that and…
Seemed like no rehearsals by the looks of it.
Format/Production was woeful.
Peeps going up to accepts awards that weren’t theirs.
Jack Danger calling out an award for LFS that was actually for Stern GZ..
All nominees were:
GZ
Halloween
Mando
Edge of the seat stuff.

I watched up to the point Imoto & Danger where introduced and they stood her on a toddlers toilet stool and I was done!

Absolutely shocking, one of the worst things I have ever watched, I was literally watching it with gritted teeth it was so cringeworthy.
 
I thought the whole stream of the event was pretty poor, it really makes you appreciate the time and effort others put in such as @strobey and IePinball

You mean the comp?
The quality and production appeared standard with what we see over there unless you mean the management or commentary side of it?

I thought it was good, although I'd have liked more rules info as I don't know most games

Forgot to add even my 6 year old daughter who like most kids these days watches some very questionable stuff on YouTube when it comes to production values said “dad what is this rubbish? It’s really bad dad really really bad!” :rofl:

It made me laugh and all I could say to hear in response was “yeah your not wrong princess” at which point it was turned off, can’t beat the honest opinion of a child though, they say it how it is with no filter!
