Good job, Dylan! I was one game-ending bug away from taking top Whirlwind score which would have put me at #2 overall, but your scores were pretty up there. :p

:D That's gotta be one of the most misheard quotes in all of pinball. To wit:

It's "Challenge the Orb feature, Sequence feature, Chamber feature, Guardian feature, Bonus feature", and the appropriate lights light illustrating each feature. "Flawless feature" - I like that. :)

It's obviously "Don't move, same thing." :) (I second netizen's motion to merge.)

Still thinking of mondegreens, I ran across this. Warning: Do not watch this while eating or drinking.

Thanks to Fungi for finding this thread! Cirqus Voltaire: "I am the Ringmaster. Defeat me for the Ringmaster Marble!" Centaur: "Smooth Move!" instead of "Slow, aren't you?"

(I know what it really is, but found "marble" an amusing mondegreen and wanted to see what responses would pop up - I expected someone to say what Bonzo did - what else?) :)

Both of your sentences describe the concept I'm looking to "wordify", but at different levels. The "stories of different people happening simultaneously" is a deeper or more complete version of "disparate strands", and they were "woven together" when "they ultimately met up and made the story...

Hey now, there's no right or wrong - it's all about making the game more fun! If easy|stock|hard settings fit your playing style|ability|preferences, then those settings are right for you - that's why the physics thread exists, to tell others what works for us in the hope that it may work for...

Slightly (but not entirely) off-topic, for logophiles: One method of telling a story is to write separate plot threads that seemingly have nothing (or very little) to do with each other and gradually weave them together through the course of the story. My favorite example of this is Stephen...

Yeah, Happy 37.75th Birthday, PiN WiZ! :^D

But you do know when the NSA's watching. (always) Smile and say cheese!

Which default settings? If you want difficult, may I suggest changing Playfield Tilt to 8 and Flipper Force to 4? Feel free to set the others however you like. :)
