    Attack from Mars: Strategy guide to Rule the Universe!

    Yeah, the target scores are totally different between OC and mobile precisely because there are no score boosts to enable

    Small update...I finally got my 100 coins to max out Safe Cracker! With that, I no longer am collecting parts. I'll have to see if this carries through today, but I earned coins instead of parts. That is so a$$backwards to what it should be, and only makes sense if parts capped at 170, because...

    Attack from Mars: Strategy guide to Rule the Universe!

    Tips for... Black Rose It's all about the shooting broadside, no matter the challenge. Learn the skill shot to get that ramp flipped up. As MBeeching said, if it's 1 ball then let the ball drain immediately and do a full plunge into it. Otherwise shoot the left ramp and then use the middle...

    Attack from Mars: Strategy guide to Rule the Universe!

    I just completed this on mobile for the daily challenge, the Premium 1 ball challenge of AFM. It requires an absolutely stupid score! 5 stars - just over a billion points (didn't catch the goal needed before blowing past it) 10 stars - 4.48 billion, which if you got on one ball in a tournament...

    Best VPX Tables?

    That’s really impressive. I love how the DMD is catching reflections, that really sells the reality. Great job on all the chrome and shiny surfaces. The one thing I don’t like is how the inserts are blown out when lit, making them illegible. This always bugged me in TPA too. I know on camera...

    Highly amusing. Thanks for the flashback Jeff. We should have you assemble a ‘best moments of’ from everything we’ve done. You can have that ready in what, 3 hours?

    BlahCade #172: Shifting Sands

    I had been designated the moderator of the group, which somehow made me think I needed to produce the content we'd be talking about. I had done 10 years with an improvisational comedy troupe, so it wasn't too dissimilar to what I was used to doing in prep and then on stage. So that's how my...

    BlahCade #172: Shifting Sands

    I totally did not remember that intro! I'm so used to the blues riff that came later. And while it was only 8 episodes before getting the C&D, we were only recording every 5 or 6 weeks, so it'd almost been a year of using that. And for those wondering why the gap between episodes, it was a...

    Hypothetically How Much To Start A Pinball Arcade?

    Haha, basement. Not a SoCal feature. Earthquakes, ya know? Also, it’d be the BlahCade Pinball Palace. Or Emporium. Parlor? Whatever. Do up our logo in neon, have a pair of giant flippers on either side of the entry, movie poster frames in the window advertising featured pins. Crowd of surly...

    Hypothetically How Much To Start A Pinball Arcade?

    Oop, just looked it up and the place I’m was thinking of is a barcade featuring craft beers. No help on the hypothetical!

    Hypothetically How Much To Start A Pinball Arcade?

    I never watched Top Gear, but I do watch The Grand Tour, so I’m familiar with that sort of bit. I should set up an interview with the person that runs this pinball arcade somewhat near me I’ve been meaning to check out. Then I could just ask him all these hypotheticals and have my answers!

    Best vertical monitor size?

    Looks like you’ve made a good argument for the 16x10 monitor! Wonder what happens when we get a widebody table?

    Hypothetically How Much To Start A Pinball Arcade?

    They had all these plans for people to be able to camp at the site, as there are motorhome hookups available. I’d be happy if they opened 4 times a year, spread out. Two of the times are only a month apart, which is why I only went to the one.

    BlahCade #172: Shifting Sands

    Whenever I hear that someone is listening to all our podcasts from the beginning, I’m somewhat relieved those first 10 ‘vanished’. They were a chaotic mess, none of us had a clue what we were doing, and there’s probably not a thing said in them that would hold any value to today. Plus my...

    Zen PinCab

    Pinball USA is making the ‘Championship Edition’ cab, and VPcabs has 2 different models to pick from. These are licensed cabs and come preinstalled with the game. The cab Zen is showing off with the video panel on the sides, that’s purely for commercial use I believe.

    Hypothetically How Much To Start A Pinball Arcade?

    From what I understood, after buying the property they found out it was not zoned for a business that wanted to be open to the public daily. The 3 times a year they are open is because that’s all they are allowed.

    Tomorrow is Alien Day. Just sayin' Let's see if Zen runs a sale on that pack too.

    Not so much patience as madness! I simply want to know how this all works, what the thinking is when setting up these freemium games. FarSight did this with their Stern VR app, offering the ability to earn tables for free. I don't have VR, so I had to rely on others to tell me that in the end...

    Here's the summary after playing the app for 35 days Level 36 (+1) Tickets 15,535 (+ 3470) Coins 84 (+24) Safe Cracker: all parts needed to upgrade since Day 16 I had two days last week with zero coins found, a single and double coin day. Ridiculous. I should have had my 100 coins needed by...
