The "I just beat my high score" thread

[ItsOnlyDanO]

Was in the South West for a few days but managed to sneak some pinball in on some games I'd not played before so these are all bests for me!
Most of these were at Boneyard in Exeter aside from the Dark Knight which was in WSM (Also had a Big Buck there but... perhaps the less I say about that game the better) - must've spent a good hour in there playing Dark Knight alone!

Wanted to get at least 10 mil on Scared Stiff before I came back but it took a fair few attempts, was nice to finally get a decent score on Tomcat too which I think is a game I'm really starting to enjoy. BK2000 is too right flipper dominant for my liking but big guns is good fun.

Back to grinding the AIQ near me for a good score now...

After a few weeks now with my Tron, I was starting to think I was getting worse, but out of the blue set a new HS just now, without even getting to Sea of Simulation, though last time I was there the scoop kicked it out SDTM.

Over a year,but this is mt best so far. My strategy was target the WIN and hurry up only. No jackpots, no ransom, no double knight multiball, just hurry ups.

Good couple of days for my son James, with PBs on both JP and GZ (factory settings, EBs on). Today he got to Visitor Centre for the first time - and completed the mode to get the Fossil

Awesome play James

No idea if this is good or bad but after only 20-30 games from it arriving in da house I got this. I even made the Horde wizard mode but went to bits as no idea what the hell was happening and didn’t realise you get walker bombs till today.

Playing on latest Cleland code Factory 3 ball. What an awesome game this is.

It's a really great score Col but did you have to crush the soul of poor @Gonzo ...

Found a South Park over the weekend not too far from me, fun game though this particular machine had a couple of issues (Shots to stan just wouldn't register + the kenny hole sometimes decided to award cartman instead)
Still can't complain with a #1 score on it!

Deadpool just came back in from a temp trade this week - had a quick game this eve and put up a new GC.

After watching the TPF final I decided to turn off EB’s and played it more like I would do in a tourney. Got to the 4th city after an epic ball 2 but quickly drained ball 3 sadly. Any idea what settings they had GZ set up on for the tourneys @Neil McRae? I noticed GZ Multiball start was harder. Cheers Alan

Amazing the difference it makes when you don't get flipper fade

You'll be at Planet X in no time

Absolutely Wayne! Notice it alot in multi balls as well, I’ve posted lots of multiball best in the last week, your flipper fans have done the trick

Tbh there are quite alot ( probably to many) EB opportunities in GZ. Makes you concentrate more having them off

 

[VeeMonroe]

On the Mando in Funland. It was an onsite high score, so I’m pretty proud.

Horde mode on day 2, ball trapped - luckily I had read it’s the Woodbury Shot to start it (although flasher was a big clue), nailed the shot & played Horde….briefly as I was poop

 

[Lickashot]

Happy with this.

 

[Drew Taylor]

First game for a month or so and I smashed my previous best….

After having long terrible sessions in the last week struggling to get into double figures of millions, back in the game the last couple of days with a new GC score this morning. Standard settings. Reached Sea of Simulation with first 5 lights all lit for a nice 15m bonus, but couldn't progress.

Tempted for another pin yet?

 

[StandUpAndFight]

Well yes, but only really have room for one and need to at least to get to Portal before I could let this one go...

 

[Andydn]

What a game! Nearly 400m & Horde lit on Ball 1 … took until Ball 3 to hit Woodbury though
I love that on the scoreboard for ‘X Champion’ it shows you how you got it.

 

[Kenny Taylor]

Crickey you guys and TWD. It’s kicking my **** bad.. In fact all my games are until this came out of the blue.

Hail Metallica. When going thru the various multiballs and stacking, sure I heard low siren sound affects which I hadn’t heard before. Really gets the juices flowing. Fecking awesome game!

 

[ItsOnlyDanO]

Looks like the tournament over the weekend already started helping with a new high score on this yesterday (4 balls)
Next stop 400m...

 

[M4carp]

A few games after working on it!

Since Diner went to the UK open, all the high scores were from that event. Some of the best players in the world.

I like our games having different high scores on them and I won't put a game back to 'home' settings with extra balls back on until I beat the high scores. It seems only fair and makes for a challenge. (There are exceptions )

Earlier in the week I finally beat KUB, who had #1 Diner, only by a few thousand! Dine time was up to 12 mil and it took me two balls to collect it, but what am amazing feeling when that clock counts it down
