The "I just beat my high score" thread
- Thread starter cooldan
- Start date
Just had a great game on my FF. I was enjoying the game ( only got it yesterday) but admit I was struggling with a few shots, especially the right ramp, the 2 shots on the left side and keeping the ball on the upper playfield but getting to grips with it now. Flow is insane. I'm sure others have had much higher scores.
All three of my pins still have previous owner GC.At last beat the last owners GC (just) even though he said it had been reset and not his best

I sent my outrun arcade pcb to be fixed by mark Haysman (retroclinic).
He tests the fix and puts it on YouTube.
He got the high score, took me months and months to reclaim it
Ps I’m crap at pins and outrun!
Slightly better...
Just cracked a bill on FF
One of those ‘just a quick game before I go out’ …and now I’m late 
Finally broke a Bil...
Feckin hell I've only just broken the 100m mark on Foos but then I am pretty rubbish
It's not that good, Josh scored more than that for 1 mode!Feckin hell I've only just broken the 100m mark on Foos but then I am pretty rubbish
Don't let him fool you, this man is a serious contender for the most improved player in the UK over the last 12 months
Thank you I feel so much better now.

Got over 2B on SG for the first time 
At last got over the billion point score. Got to "Number of the beast" mode and beat it too 
Slightly better...
, double my previous GC score (3 ball factory settings) - quite exciting getting a 220m Destruction Jackpot, had Monster Zero and Terror of MG but still not got to Planet X:
Beat my GC after fitting an Afterglow board and got to the final mode for the first time (not played much), mayhem!
Back to back GC's on my local AIQ, first game I finally got to black order and then proceeded to do absolutely nothing with it! Had a nice super target score with a multiball (100+ mil from it)
Second game I had all gems bar one, I started the game just seeing how many combos I could get just doing center ramp to marvel or BP and keep repeating that but eventually It was worth going for the modes with all the portal locks...
750 mil is the next target!

I know I got over a bil a while back, but that was when the game was recently restored, in a different location and levelled differently.. (the whirlpool could spin indefinitely, which was fun but overpowered as you could get to 4x playfield with one ball).
Anyway this is it playing much better imo.
Played a couple games with Claire after work yesterday evening.
Previous GC was 555mil which I got earlier in the week
I didn't get a super jackpot, so I think it's not a bad score considering?

With the help from @Dave Bishop earlier we set upTWD, first time it’s been set up
In the house for over a year. My first go and I got to horde
never made it there before but I ended up tilting 
Still happy tho as it’s the first time I’ve got my name up on this game
This is the Fish Tales that was generating genuine rage at the London & SE League last weekend. Score achieved on my first play (admittedly with extra balls back on), but just leaving this here… 
We’re going to change the tilt. I realised, talking to people and looking at the scores, that I struggle to nudge due to pure physical strength/size. So, I rely heavily on accuracy. The tilt was set accordingly and - looking at the scores - on this machine, it really benefitted the kids and teens who can’t nudge easily either. I’m now setting the tilt to avoid penalising hearty nudging in competition play.

Don't know if the score is any good or not, but first time playing this and enjoyed it. At Herbies Diner near Swavesy
A new 3 ball high score. A case of what might have been unfortunately. Was in the last city with megalon started. Gz multiball ready to go. A bit of a juggle and away she goes.
Next time!
Depending on its settings, I'd say you can be proud of that. Bob Thompson had a Road Kings at home, and he'd won a POA tournament on one when new (Birmingham, 1987). I recall him sparring with a friend "You didn't get a replay on it, though, did you?" and the reply 'How many Road Kings have a replay of 2 million?' In a similar vein, I was pleased and ****ed-off at the same time when my F-14 percentaged its replay score to 2 million.
