Hi,

The proper title is "The Pinball Arcade" as shown: http://www.giantbomb.com/the-pinball-arcade/3030-36777/

Currently, you can set your game as whatever you would like. The game "Pinball Arcade" is not a valid directory on Twitch, so no one will see you in the "All Games" directory. This is not something we can change, as our game directory is synced with Giantbomb.com

Thanks"

This doesn't really address it properly and it skipped the whole logo problem. I replied:

-------------------------------------------------

Ok that answers half of it.

Just so we are clear, these links are both legitimate locations:

http://www.twitch.tv/directory/game/Pinball Arcade
http://www.twitch.tv/directory/game/The Pinball Arcade

Here is an example of a recent stream that lists ‘Pinball Arcade’ as listed in the first link above:
http://www.twitch.tv/pinballwiz45b/b/600749746

...and here is an example of my recent broadcast that lists ‘The Pinball Arcade’ as listed in the 2nd link above:
http://www.twitch.tv/jaybonaut/b/600479499

Also, part of the first support message mentioned the missing game logo. This is missing for both game listings. Your reply did not address this. Tonight I also submitted an entry through the google docs entry, but in case you wanted it, I listed it here also:

Please understand that when I start typing in a game name for streaming, ‘The Pinball Arcade’ is the only option, however others are somehow streaming under ‘Pinball Arcade’ including Farsight Studios themselves, the developer of the game, as seen here:

http://www.twitch.tv/farsight_studios/b/600703187 – official company channel, streamed tonight, under ‘Pinball Arcade’ and NOT ‘The Pinball Arcade’ so please look into this issue if possible.

One of those guys really annoy me to no end. I won't say who, but sometimes I wonder if that person is paying attention at work? That being said, I don't recall anything post worthy that was talked about tonight. At least the tabled looked pretty good.

I particularly enjoyed 'bumpers'? I like the way they had only that day found out about the twitch/Xbox One issue despite it being reported day one.

As I stated - anyone can set the game as whatever they would like, doing so prevents you from showing up in this directory: http://www.twitch.tv/directory

Only official games which are actually available using our game selector such as "The Pinball Arcade" will show up in our "All Games" directory. You will have to contact the company game developer and have them edit their giantbomb.com url: http://www.giantbomb.com/the-pinball-arcade/3030-36777/

Until that is done, we cannot do anything on our end. As I said before, our official game directory is synced directly with Giantbomb.com's. As far as box art, if this is deemed official box art, our design team will add it.

It will be added for "The Pinball Arcade" as that is the official name of the game and that is the only one that actually exists in our game directory.

Thanks

SO MAKE SURE YOU LIST 'THE' Pinball Arcade when you enter a game from the list.

 

[Captain B. Zarre]

Streaming at 7:30 tonight.

I will be playing Venom for those who missed it two weeks ago and then play Boba Fett.

[Captain B. Zarre]

Streaming RIGHT NOW!

[Captain B. Zarre]

I could only play Venom this stream - and if you weren't there, you missed a lot! Highlights included:

- Collecting 8 (!) tries on the Jailbreak mini-playfield
- Reaching and completing Maximum Carnage and getting really close to activating it a second time
- Earning an Extra Ball (that's a huge accomplishment on Zen tables right?

Next stream I am going to return to Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare.

 

[Captain B. Zarre]

Surprise! Because I couldn't help it, I am streaming Pinball Arcade tonight at 7:30!

Tables to be streamed:

- Attack from Mars
- WHO dunnit

If I have enough time I may also stream Junkyard.

Hi Pinballwiz, sorry I missed your stream. I had dinner at that time. Promise I'll try and check out your stuff next time!

Two things I wanted to mention:

1. I am streaming Zen Pinball 2 this Monday at 7:30: the tables I am streaming are A New Hope + Venom.
2. I have decided upon the tables I am streaming after mojavechill & Mike's stream in two weeks. I will be streaming Phantom of the Opera + Whitewater.

Sry guys, I'm delaying the stream until next Tuesday. I have an unexpected Mario Kart 8 tournament with PKsparkxx to attend and I am sorry that I didn't stick to my promise.

Currently streaming Monster Bash. 3 billion. Starting to learn the table.

9.3b. All pretty much done on the last ball. I finally read uo on the table. Might try for a really big score soon.
