Excellent stuff and interesting commentaries!
Now, if this could also be streamed live (in lower resolution of course) next year then my dreams are fullfilled Well, one of them anyway.

Interesting that there were more right drains than left drains on both machines. I had always felt it was more of a left drainer due to the shape of the left sling. The audits never lie!

There’s a lot of legacy wording in Stern audits, and other operator-mode things the player never sees. Ball savers are known as “freeze”, after the first DE game that had them (LW3?). If the game had a kickback, it would most likely be referred to as a “laser kick”, again, after the first DE game that had it (Laser War). LOTR also has evidence of renamed modes that were at one time called something else in the game’s development: Ring Frenzy is called “Ring Mania” instead, in the audits.

@Maurice
It’s not a “sport” unless steroids help!

I like how the audits call the game “Iron Man 2″ even though the backglass doesn’t…

Thanks. This is great Kevin!

What a fantastic tournament that surely deserved a final on this level. The fact that you also had those amazing screens – and took the time to post and comment this game just simply makes it all perfect.

Hail to the crowd and the players. Especially Bowen for being there 100% – and always sharing his remarkable knowledge (also here). And one has got to bow for Keith. Being so very strong. Watching him play here – his efficiency – no better way to learn pinball.

Hope to see more games and commentary of this quality in the future!
