"How to Take Control of Everything and Everyone" by Cacola (from Micajo Domino's "Random Screenlink 3") is one of my favorite songs to date and fit extremely well with Machine Multiverse and I'd intended to use it for MM23 but it was unfortunately copyrighted. I uploaded this privately a while ago for personal reference; now seemed like a good time to make it public with MM24 coming soon in the next couple months.

If you enjoyed, I uploaded our second watch through of PPBT as well: youtu.be/SB8KKv_Vpu4Billiard Ball Tricks 2Sirgabealot G Extras2024-08-03 | Replacing ping pong balls in my machines before tearing them down has been is something of a trend I've been for the last few years. Having made an entire video dedicated to ping pong ball tricks, it only seemed right to dedicate an entire video to replacing the ping pong balls with billiard balls and beholding the chaos that ensued. With that said, here is Billiard Ball Tricks 2 - aka Ping Pong Ball Tricks with every ball replaced by a billiard ball!

I edited this periodically over the year and a half I spent making clips so I had a lot of time to make this my longest and most intricate bonus footage video yet.
If you've come this far you must really like machines! Below is a list of what inspired each trick:
Clear Tube Carousel: Inspiration: spontaneous idea I wrote in my engineering notes. Quadruple catapult was added to give it an interesting way of transferring the balls into the tube/callback to Billiard Ball Tricks
Gliding Gears: Inspiration: an idea I’ve had for years and even attempted in 50CRT (which became the double-use flexing track trick). I explained this concept to Lyle at Domino World 2019 and it also inspired his vertical double-use flexing track trick for his event machine. Seeing planetary gears used in DvMs 9 I realized that I could use them to make this trick possible.
Cascading Chain: Inspiration: mainly how most ball chains will fall on tracks between the ball modules, and having those tracks lead to another chain
Centrifugal Force Carousel: Inspiration: Zane’s centerpiece Reactica 2021 trick. I wanted to showcase a trick that used centrifugal force to hold objects in place rather than transfer them somewhere.
Tetherball Twister: Inspiration: old idea that was buried in the depths of my brain that I fished out to replace a clip I’ve moved to Machine Multiverse 2024. A fusion of two of my favorite concepts: the unraveling billiard balls from Billiard Ball Tricks and the five-ball gear trick from my 13BC machine
Bubble Bath: Inspiration: had “underwater ping pong ball chain” buried in my idea list for this project which I'd planned as part of the finale, mostly as nothing more than a callback to the similar underwater trick from Billiard Ball Tricks. When I saw this a few months later I thought of the idea of having an underwater ball chain transform into a surface ball chain and realized that could be a really cool screenlink clip.
Launch Loop: Inspiration: spontaneous idea I wrote in my engineering notes.
Swirl of Swings: Inspiration: thought of this while watching Centrifugal Force Tricks by Zane and Lyle (where I was surprised to learn that Zane had also attempted a very similar idea for that video)
Palace of Ping Pong Balls: Inspirations: Dual Moving Filters: based on my ball-filtering track idea from DW19 Launcher Carousel: wanted a way to include ball launchers in the video and thought of this Spinning Top: had absolutely no intent of doing this in my plan until I thought of doing a “Saturn Rings” idea in church and built this that very afternoon Bouncing 8-Ball: idea part of my original plan that fit the space left in the table Fishing Sign: substitute to water pouring idea (I like this one better anyway)
All of the music from the video is from the Grand Poo World 3 soundtrack and be found here: youtu.be/YARtfR7nOuc?si=drfG8ME-MhCmRDQg This music was a big part of inspiration for making this bonus footage. This is music remixed using a Super Mario World/SNES soundfont and over the last six months I've gotten into learning how to compose these songs myself. Each song was specifically chosen to embody the personality of each trick and I'm really happy with how it turned out.

Main Take w/Editing: youtu.be/tw6i5nsAK0A Bonus Footage: youtu.be/rronvnKBmHERejected Clips: Spicing it Up #1Sirgabealot G Extras2023-03-17 | Here is a compilation of many of the clips I rejected from Spicing it Up #1 in 2016. Like 50 Chain Reaction Tricks, the premise of the video grew in complexity as it went on, leading me to remove many of the simpler clips I made earlier on as the other tricks I made became more complicated. Some of the rejected clips were actually better than many of the clips I kept in Spicing it Up #1 and were meant to be saved for Spicing it Up #2, as @cwdreactions and I had planned SIU 1 and 2 concurrently. However, because of the shift in how I filmed machine clips from 2016 to 2017, these clips became unusable when SIU 2 came around. Back then I didn't properly organize my clips the way I do now; the clips in this video are whatever I could scrape up after digging through several old camera rolls/text conversations/emails/etc. There are still two clips I wasn't able to find which were some of my best work at the time - one trick with three moving tracks stacked on top of each other and a wall machine where a hair dryer launched a ping pong high in the air. Sadly it is unlikely these clips will ever be found.
I believe this is the last of old Sirgabealot content I have to upload. I held off on uploading this when I uploaded my other old projects to this channel in 2020 so I could give myself more time to find other missing clips. If you've followed my channel for a while, I hope this brings a nice bit of nostalgia to you :)
As you probably noticed, 2022 was a great year for circular motion in chain reaction tricks :)

I started making a ranking list/reflective analysis of my clips from 50CRT and was reminded of how there were many clips that had been intended to be left in the video for months before being rejected and replaced. All of these clips have been uploaded before but I was curious what the video would have looked like had my quality standards been more flexible. As a result, I decided to throw this video together - mainly for myself but I figured I’d post it just in case anyone else would find any value from seeing what this video could have been in an alternate reality.

In doing this challenge I realized that there was enough of a variety of billiard ball tricks out there to cover each letter of the alphabet and then this video was born.

This video is set up as a game where people who have seen Machine Multiverse 2021 can try to find the differences! 20 of the 37 clips in this video are different (disregarding the removal of the slow motion effects in two clips - ignore those) - can you find them all? If so, let me know in the comments what you think.
