Back then, it was a bit more like human cock fighting, lol. They didn't have weight classes at all and I am not sure they had the referees stop the matches when players got rocked either. You'll never see fights like Gracie vs Kimo now.

Is that Joe Buck as the ring announcer?

Looks a lot like him, but pretty sure it isn't him. I think the dude sitting in the middle of the commentators is now on ESPN though. I did not remember Jim Brown being a commentator back then either.

I officially finished 9th out of 19 on the final pinball league standings board.  My goal was top 10 so I'm happy.  Definitely glad I finally took the leap into it.  Thanks Chewy!

Next week is the end of season banquet with free games and food and funtimes!

 
Speaking of cheesy, how is that racing game Gator?

Dont you dare tell me to wait for a link to the review!

I love it and hate it at the same time right now. It is pretty fun but the rubber banding can be annoying and there is soooo much to do in the game. For more detail, you will have to wait for the review ;)

I should be streaming it sometime this weekend, probably Sunday.

I have to say that I'm envious about the table lineup. You're getting lots of new games. Though Wrestlemania looks boring from the videos I've seen (not that I won't be happy to try it, of course). How is it in practice?

Week 1 here didn't go great for me. I had one good game, but the other three stank. 10.9 billion on Attack From Mars was pretty satisfying, though. :) Actually my scores weren't bad on two of those other three, but the other two players in my group did better.

Few others if you like Clint Eastwood, John Wayne, Humphrey Bogart, or James Dean. http://www.amazon.com/b/ref=lp_11265855011_gbrc_ulm_r-1_6742_45331e80?rh=i%3Amovies-tv%2Cn%3A11265855011%2Cn%3A11265855011&ie=UTF8&node=11265855011

I think it's weird that the James Dean one has 7 discs yet he was only in 3 movies. Must be a shit ton of filler/extras

You should sign up for Pinburgh at ReplayFX this year Zimm. It's going to be amazing. Largest pinball tournament in the world and it's match play which means you get to play a ton of games regardless. It's exhausting but hellafun. 700 players. $100,000 in prize money. Top 160 go to the finals and win money.

I believe you can only get on the wait list at this point, but it sounds like you'll have a decent chance of getting in. Just sign up for the tournament but don't buy a ReplayFX admission unless you get in. Those don't sell out. FYI, it's also a huge video game show. There's going to be stuff like the Donkey Kong world championship.

Wrestlemania actually didn't make it there in time for last night. Still some maintenance to do on it. Me and Mustang Pro made up though, got one of the top 5 scores of the night on it. Walking Dead Pro can still eat a bag of dicks.

Weird thing during Tee'd Off. Right in the middle of my third ball the flippers stop working and I see the back glass adding up my bonuses. All of a sudden flippers work again, but the ball drained immediately. I look up and it shows player 3's last ball just ended and starts calculating her bonuses. Then game over. We talked to the dude that runs it all and maintains the machines and he just added two credits to the machine and had us play one more ball and add whatever we got there to our final scores from the last game.

I played Mustang when it was new at PAPA and thought it was just OK, but I hear that they've improved it a lot since then with software updates. Supposed to be pretty solid now. None around here that I'm aware of unfortunately, but I'll get to play it at ReplayFX I'm sure.

That looks amazing. If i had the cash for the show (and to get to and from Pittsburgh) I'd totally sign up. I need something like that here.

Yeah I'm not a huge fan of the table layout. Those drop targets right in the center are the pure unadulterated devil. I finally started to hit the ramps with some consistency last night, which let to my improved score.

 
That there are females in our pinball league?
It apparently was a Therm level joke since it needs explanation. I was hinting at you possibly hitting on the females that were there. I was also shocked that there were women in the pinball league though, yes. I realize women play of course, but I expected pinball clubs/leagues to be sausage fests for some reason.

Yeah, they are pretty much. There are women who play for sure, but they are outnumbered by men by a fairly wide margin unfortunately. My league location currently has no female players, but our other two locations do.

 
Whats work?
-Mild
Funny story, I started this new job right? Part of this new job was initially helping out an able team of 4 other gentlemen to knock out a small project list for one of the smaller companies before moving on to my actual job at the big parent company.

Well, one of them is an intern that spends most of the day watching league of legends on youtube, one has a terrible disease that keeps him unable to work nine days out of ten and one of them quit today. The other guy started the week before me and took my original job. And the 'small project list' is a 10'x6' whiteboard filled with projects that combined would normally take a year for a full team.

So yeah, what's work?

I figured you thought I was forgetting to mention that someone was helping me play the ol' silver ball during league times.

We actually have three females in our league. My group of three last night was actually me and two of them.

yeah and we have heard nothing about their looks so I have to assume they may as well be sausages too.

 
Thanks PlayStation Plus, for sending two Futuridium trophies to the top of my rarest trophy list.
