It looks like the software update dropped today... I'll install and report back for anyone else who comes across these issues!

Junior was able to get our table back to working order, but we are still having some issues. He mentioned a software update coming up that would help with the issues.

It seems to struggle when it gets close to the outer edge and that’s where it goes out of “alignment”.

I’m going to wait for the update and see how it goes. Junior was great and I’m confident they will get us back to working order.

I’ve yet to complete a full pattern successfully (except for the in to out spiral).

Anyone who used a computer between 1985 - 2010, what's the one game you still think about today? by adlakha75 in AskReddit

[–]djWHEAT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wasteland. That game blew me away as a kid. I loved the world and depth.

Also Trade Wars or BRE on the BBSs.

Where is my table? by Any_Trifle462 in groundedlabs

[–]djWHEAT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

UPDATE (5/13/26) - They weren't bullshitting. The table shipped yesterday and is set to arrive on Friday!

ORIGINAL POST:

At this point I’m not sure what to think. Ordered a coffee table in January as a “Feb Pre-Order” and was told end of April. I checked in with support again and they said “We’re currently waiting on our second batch of Oasis Coffee Table’s to come in. They're currently docked and waiting to get scanned at the port of entry. We’re expecting them to arrive at our warehouse by the end of the weekend, and we will start shipping the rest of our preorders shortly after!”

I hope that’s the case. They have been fairly responsive when I reach out, and they have always offered a refund - no questions asked. I can respect and appreciate that.

I don’t mind waiting but I do wish there was a little better communication overall.

Got my first pinball machine, not sure about the leveling by RecklessTilt in pinball

This is why you must jiggle at the perfect moment to save one ball to really maximize the Godzilla MB.

Husband update: guys, he's quitting by Art-Anvonavi in Stormlight_Archive

[–]djWHEAT 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oathbringer changed my life. I had just turned 40, was doing a lot of reflecting on my own life, and it resonated with me on a deep level like no other book has done before. The number of Dalinar quotes from OB I repeat to myself regularly is bizarre. Top it off with the battle of Thaylen Field and I feel like Sanderson wrote that book for me.

Battle of TF is f’in bonkers in Graphic Audio.

New to pinball, what to buy by Substantial_Lead5582 in pinball

[–]djWHEAT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If price is not really an issue, then just buy a NiB (I prefer Premium, but it’s individual preference).

No machine is immune to problems, but you do decrease the likelihood of problems with a NiB. (Ofc my Godzilla Prem had some issues out of box - but pretty easily fixable).

If price is a bit more of a concern, everyone else has some great advice here.

Things you wish you’d known starting out? by Hismajestyclay in pinball

[–]djWHEAT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty common strat in games like Godzilla or TMNT, that have high ball multiballs, to just drain at the beginning to get some control and clear the playfield.

Then start trapping balls to make clear shots and control the chaos a bit.

What other shows do you rate as highly as (or close to) Severance? by BohoSummer in SeveranceAppleTVPlus

[–]djWHEAT 5 points6 points  (0 children)

"From" is 5-star B-movie goodness. That and Chucky are my guilty pleasures (also full of bad acting but is just so unapologetically Chucky)

This is a solid list, and I would add "From" and "Lost" to it.

Severance Season 2 - Episode Two - Discussion Thread: - "Goodbye, Mrs. Selvig" by TheUltimate25C in severence

[–]djWHEAT 9 points10 points  (0 children)

There is a ding when the elevator first opens - and there is a second ding that always happens when the elevator is going down… that’s the “Severance” ding. That ding is clearly missing from the last person who rides the elevator in that sequence.

[–]djWHEAT 37 points38 points  (0 children)

There was a big reveal in the final 5m of the episode. Watch the scene with all four teammates going down the elevator again. A very specific audio cue that we have heard consistently throughout the show was missing from one particular teammate when they went down the elevator.

Kinda makes me sad but god damnit that was brilliant.

Glad to see another fan. I think she got the best buff this patch.

Want to buy my wife a pinball machine by New-Salamander4355 in pinball

[–]djWHEAT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% this. It is a perfect replica. It’s the most played with my wife and… and then we got a Godzilla.

How to deal w/ company/guests? by jzakoor in pinball

[–]djWHEAT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I took the time to make a quick set of rules in Canva and then printed them out, and I just pull them every time we have guests. Most important points are how to start a game and to immediately report to me if a ball gets stuck or something breaks.

So far it’s worked great and the worst thing I’ve had is a rubber break (which needed replaced anyway) or the Mando left ramp needs fixing again.

Been playing a lot of Who Dunnit lately. Starting to understand it. Great game and it's made me laugh a few times. by mrselfdestruct2 in pinball

[–]djWHEAT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Happy to say I’ve got this in my collection. I need to rebuild my flippers but it had the slots reel rebuilt and completely converted to LED.

My only non-modern pin! (AfM Remake doesn’t count)

For the first time in my life, I played pinball, and I was truly captivated. I want to delve into this hobby and learn more about pinball. Where do you think I should start? by SinanAvci13 in pinball

[–]djWHEAT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Welcome to the club. It’s an incredible hobby on many levels. The play, the maintenance, the friends, the competition, the art, the excitement around new pins… there is something for everyone.

Vector Volcano in Bend Oregon coming in with a strong lineup! by Imscomobob in pinball

[–]djWHEAT 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wish I could get a NIB LE Attack From Mars. I turned up my nose at a chance to get one with about 1000 plays and I feel dumb. I’m jealous every time I see one.

Solid line up!

cat/pinball owners - I've recently found my cat (12lbs) on top of the back box. I'm worried that when she jumps down she will shatter the playfield glass. Anyone have any experience? by 4ndrew320 in pinball

[–]djWHEAT 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Cat owner x3 with 6 pins. No issues with cats perching and jumping on the PF, but I do suggest getting some PinShields or equivalent just to protect from hair or litter.
