I'm sad.......but I'm giving myself mega bonus points for actually going to jail from "stealing money to play pinball."

I like Cointakers one....except for giving it away at the bottom. I'd have seen how many folks tried to order one...

Here we go....bring on the ice cold water.

Taking a couple games for folks to play during the plunge tomorrow.

Game Terminal is awesome......I'll checkout the video later.

Seems like the games were "found". Games were purchased by Nitro without them knowing they were stolen. They happily came forward immediately once they knew the good were stolen. Hopefully they find the culprit. What kind of crack head moron steals high profile games to resell them the day after to ...

Ian has an enabler friend.....

So Sparky was here for a bit and it was motor 1C. Game now starts as its should.... Now the game doesn't stop, no game over and was just kicking out balls and advancing into the void. so I checked the usual suspects and now game still doesn't end when I activate the ball trough but instead of ...

Starting to look like all roads lead to motor switch 1c......if I put a little pressure on the stack while starting it does not activate the add player on the coin unit and starts at one player. Looks like I'll have to take a couple stacks off the motor above it to reach it, which will be a first ...

Question.....should the coil be getting power even though the game is turned off? I don't mean it's activating, but twice now I've gotten a little "love ya' Bruce" from the power tabs, even though the game is shut off.
Been unplugging it now when I reach in....

I've checked all avenues that my tiny brain can think of.............curious if the coin unit jumping up one spot on start up could have something to do with the way the coin units were wired when they took them out years ago? If I unhook the coin door and hit first ball or start it doesn't move ...

Me too.....

I can just see it now.... "dumbasses walking around private property with their phone in hand, trying to catch stoopid virtual animal-thingies multiball!" Many years ago some folks got taken down trying to get into the jail yard.......you can guess what they were looking for. Not a clue that this ...

I guess I had better Google what a Pokemon is.........

Meh, can't hear the pin over the stereo so adding to the sound is a waste for me. I like some of the extra lighting for mods, but that's about it. Mostly because, unlike most folk, my mancave is a garage and not so easy to make dark like a basement.

Hey Steph, Have you checked with a reputable transmission shop instead of the dealer? A rebuild from a specialist might cost you a lot less. Good luck! tartagliag This!!! Nissan wanted over 7 grand for a Trans for wife's Murano. A friend found a place in Woodbridge that did it all for a bit over 3 ...

Happy New Year all. Wishes? To continue to love life I guess........and too see you all at Ontario Pinfest the end of May!!!

Merry Christmas all...

Decided to get Arena going. The good... it turned on and plays. The bad... it is rough looking, with a worn playfield. The ugly... cab os so bad, the pin dolly went right through the bottom. Lol. Oh well... looks like the game is giving me no choice but to build a new cabinet and retheme it at this ...

No,....buddy of mine in Guelph got it. Its going in right beside his Party Zone.

Thanks to all those who gave ideas for my Blue Note problem. My buddy Jay Horst came over and we started really digging into the switches, and found continuity where there shouldn't have been on about the 3rd one in. Traced it back to the "O" relay and, to the naked eye' the switched looked good ...

It scores normally.
I'm honestly thinking coin door. One slot mech is still there and one isn't, the switch where there is no mech will add games but the one with a mech does nothing. Coil does pull in on the door...

That's why they only made 229 of them,....the offset flippers didn't go over well.

So here I am pretty much playing a game while the score motor just keeps turning....?????

GIving up before I kick it up and down the street .....time for someone smarter then I. Too rare a game to screw around too much.
