patcdr @patcdr.net · 18hPostmortem time! I mentioned trying to do this a week ago and failing, so I wanna discuss what went better. First, and simplest: I got out of the house sooner. Don't remember exactly when I left before, but I got to West Seattle around 5 PM. Way too late. 112
patcdr @patcdr.net · 27/09/2026Here's how Jupiter's Adams Family sounds when you enter a mansion room. Also, it's really hard to record pinball one handed. Would've loved to show off the train noise, cause it's hilarious, but that's not as easy as backhanding the electric chair scoop. 030

patcdr @patcdr.net · 20/09/2026Failed in my attempt to play every Adams Family in Seattle, mostly due to not starting early enough. Got to see the beach on a nice day though. 120
patcdr @patcdr.net · 16/09/2026I'm still hoping for some kinda speedrunner sicko to cover the left half of the screen and only play with the DDR commands. Would be a hell of a spectacle for some live event. 020

patcdr @patcdr.net · 11/09/2026Everyone talks about how Tom Clancy or The Lone Gunman predicted 9/11, but no one talks about the 1991 gameshow "Where in the World Is Carmen Sandiego?", there was an episode where "Double Trouble" stole the World Trade Centers. 120

patcdr @patcdr.net · 05/09/2026Played a little pinball at Jupiter post PAX. Found a free game on Jaws and left a free game on Jaws. 020
patcdr @patcdr.net · 03/09/2026Despite some shipping mishaps, got my PAX West badge today! Also, my apartment is running low on electricity till 6 PM, so saith Seattle City Light, so working out of a bar that's playing Totally Spies on their projector for some reason. 010
patcdr @patcdr.net · 01/09/2026Fallout pinball, eh? Could be good. Seems like they're leaning into the TV show based on the small amount of data the teaser shows. Kinda a shame given how much you could do with just Vault Boy animations. Maybe some green screen looking Pip-Boy stuff. 110

patcdr @patcdr.net · 17/08/2026Got to play some pinball in Philly. Finally got to tour the mansion in Adam's Family. Last ball was kinda sad, but it's a PB I'll take. Not too long after--and around when we were planning to head out--I was challenged by an old timer to a friendly game of Jaws... 110
patcdr @patcdr.net · 15/08/2026Spent some more time playing the Sonic Pinball table. Good news: you can pick your starting level by pushing the button. Bad news: every level is still kinda inscrutable. Finding the blue shots that mark progress is shockingly difficult. Callouts help, but they're callouts. 031
patcdr @patcdr.net · 13/08/2026Since people have been having fun with musical/legal analogies this week, just wanna post my favorite music lawsuit.

patcdr @patcdr.net · 12/08/2026Last week, I decided to setup a fail2ban rule where any IP that requests 10ish 404ing URLs gets punted. Turns out this cuts down on bot traffic dramatically. Might add another rule for anything trying to grab any .env or *.php files. 020

patcdr @patcdr.net · 30/07/2026Had a really good game of X-Men the other day. Managed to get every multiball except Save the City, oddly. Still think that starting Sentinel Factory is the best strat. Being able to on demand add-a-ball to every single multiball is really powerful. 120
