Jon Replogle – World Record Holder on The Walking Dead pinball!
Back in November 2015, Twin Galaxies, in close partnership with the International Flipper Pinball Association (IFPA) has jointly decided to open the all-new adjudication process to the pinball community as an exciting experiment to see if competitive leaderboard pinball can once again take place successfully on the Twin Galaxies scoreboards!
MILLIONS entered . . . but only one could earn the World Record!
Okay so millions didn’t enter, but ONE PERSON did submit a video for the Twin Galaxies, and that person was the artist formerly known as “Jon from Pittsburgh”.
Jon scored 208,715,140 on a Walking Dead LE. Check out the submission video HERE.
We congratulate Jon on this incredible achievement, and will do our best to pay him his $100 in all pennies.
Skyler Johnson next time record my game..lol
DE-FAULT! DE-FAULT! The two greatest words in the English Language!
Lol. I don’t think pinballers care about twin galaxies much. While 208 mil is a good game, it’s no where near the world record lol. Our local record is around 700 mil and I’m pretty sure I heard of some several billion point games.
With the strict settings they have, I’d love to watch a 700 mil game. Check out the set requirements for the table.
Am I missing others settings? All I see is that it’s level, minimum 6.5 degrees and the tilt bob is 1/4 in above the tilt ring?
I think the only one that stands out that might not be set on route is the “No Ball Save”. Otherwise looks pretty standard. And even then some places turn that off as well.
I look at this as the first “Officially verified score for TG” not something that can’t or hasn’t been achieved otherwise. Maybe it’s a start of more. But I doubt it as of right now.
Open outlanes, no ball save also, it doesn’t sound bad but locally we attempted it and the high score on video was 90mil. 1/4in above the ring is pretty sensitive especially with the way the ball feeds outta the pop bumpers
Pop bumpers are a crap shoot for sure. I’ve only bested 200 mil 2-3 times personally and I can just as easily score 10 mil cause of the in consistency of the pop feed. I have though seen plenty of 300-700 mil games put up by others here.
Same machine, different settings. The settings may not sound difficult, but it was playing pretty brutal.
The machine was set difficult- but I would see a score of around 1 billion with these settings as being a legit record. We had fun taking runs at it- and with the help of Ben Sweeney we posted it just because it was the highest game of the day. Now someone please go beat it.
Little time ago some “random swedish” player put up nice score on competition. Unbelieveable game, Jörgen!!!
