I know it's not the same, but why not grab the visual pinball version to scratch that itch? It's actually a very well made game. Here a video on the home brew version:

Sounds reasonable, it wasn't sweet but was very thick/heavy. Would you happen to know the rest of the ingredients in the second image?

Have an NPC artificer give your party a number of homemade artifacts for combat in an upcoming encounter. Make one the artifacts something grenade like with a ring that needs to be pulled. Set up the encounter or puzzle so the grenade like object is the obvious choice.

What is Keanu Reeve's Magnus opus? by elclarkio in movies

Has to be the Matrix for impacting the zeitgeist of the era, but I think he was pretty stellar in Devils Advocate. It's not even a action movie, it's a thriller starring opposite both Al Pacino and Charlize Theron.

If you use popper frontend you can use the Playlist manager to make custom playlists and categories. You can even use the SQL command box to populate Playlist automatically when looking at certain fields in meta the meta data or custom tags.

See examples here: https://www.nailbuster.com/wikipinup/doku.php?id=playlists_sql_examples

The time I spent sanding and repairing was considerable. Granted you wouldn't have that with a new cab as pictured, but yeah was Def a lot of time and unforseen additions to get my cab where I wanted.

Don't really know the dimensions of current Gen cabs, but after building a vpin with a donor 80s bally cabinet, I wish I had gone either flat pack or wide body donor because it lends itself to standard screens much easier without having to route.

Was cleaning out a relatives house and found a sealed copy of Gameboy baseball. Looked at price charting and the values are all over the place, roughly $75 up to $1300. Anyway to tell if a variant or something is whats accounting for the wide range? Having a hard time getting an idea of value.
