    The Random Thought Thread

    We have friends in Winnipeg, not that they're hockey fans (between the 4 kids and the 2 dogs, they don't have time for much else). Mind you my wife knows people in lots of cities across North America so name a (non-New York) team and I can probably dig up a connection. Except Boston. Sorry...

    Yep it's been raining on the East Coast for about a week and a half now. When I finally mow my lawn, I'm going to have to take a hunting rifle in case there are tigers living in there....

    Watching KKR vs Hyderabad in the IPL. Just had a most unusual reversal by replay! Batsman was hit on the helmet by a bouncer, ball popped up and was caught, called out, easy reversal. He slammed the next ball into the crowd! Sent from my SM-T710 using Tapatalk

    That '53 Cup Final was a classic. 4-3 with Stanley Matthews at his best. Not sure this year will be so good. A team that has been on the beach for a month already vs. one of the most methodical and boring sides in recent memory. Count me out. The BBC sport website was revisiting the 2006 West...

    Modern Stern Music Pin Poll (non-official)

    Well... it would've been Metallica hands down 2 weeks ago. Then I played Iron Maiden and now I want one more than anything else in the world. Sent from my VS985 4G using Tapatalk

    Hands off my TAF Gold, you dirty commoners! It's mine all mine and you can't have it. Be off with you and your grubby little hands!

    WMS License - Speculation Thread

    I'm not so sure. I think it's a demographic thing. People who were students or just starting their careers in the late 80s/early 90s when pinball had its last "golden age" with pins in every bar and pizza shop and student union, all over the world, went on to have entry-level jobs with...

    Columbia/Sony license - is a new deal possible?

    I like this idea. Would be worth it for Tommy alone, the rest would be icing. It's possible Stern baked a digital license into their Spider-Man Vault edition, which means we'd get that and not the original and it wouldn't need to be tied in to any other deal.

    *2018* Top Ten Most Wanted Tables - GOTTLIEB/PREMIER (LICENSED)

    Spiderman (if you see one, play it, it's fun), Stargate (duh!), SFII (guilty pleasure... I even kinda liked the movie), and for a fourth I went with World Challenge Soccer - is that actually a license? I thought it was a knock-off to coincide with the '94 World Cup.

    *2018* Top Five Most Wanted Tables - ATARI

    I've only ever played Superman multiple times - there is one at a local bowling alley if I really wanted to play it regularly, but it's not in that great a shape - but I'd definitely want it in TPA. Great artwork, and it's Steve Ritchie's first ever table. It's a lot of fun. I played Hercules...

    Beyond software, people bought movies on VHS. Then on DVD. Then digitally (I have the original Star Wars trilogy in all three formats, all bought separately). Or music, tape/vinyl was doubled up on CD, and (for those not part of the "ripping" generation), digitally too. Sent from my SM-T710...

    I don't really have space for 2 either... otherwise I would be running with 2 monitors already. I need a bigger desk, which I theoretically do have room for but that would mean a trip to IKEA yadda yadda yadda.

    Hmm. I have 3 monitors (my main monitor, one is still NIB - won it in a raffle at work and had no use for it, the other is my old one I haven't powered on in years but I assume still might work). I don't have the desk real estate for 3 monitors. Or the desire to run a cab. Or really $149 to...

    Judging by their website, it looks like they just buy up any gaming or other interesting IP they can get their hands on, so they can recycle as much of that IP as they can into slots. So they will take the most marketable IPs from the WMS licenses for their slots, the rest is garbage they could...

    My daughter got home from school a few minutes before it started. Some buses were asked to stop and wait it out. Frankly amazed we never lost power. Sent from my SM-T710 using Tapatalk

    Holy guacamole it's bucketing down right now. Got a tornado warning too but this isn't really a tornado area so I'm not too worried.
