[QUOTE="EccentricFlower, post: 206615, member: 5393"] Disclaimer: I am a truly rotten pinball player who can do a few things well. I find some shots mysteriously easy that others have trouble with, and have all kinds of problems with things real pinball players consider basic. This means that often I get annoyed when I finally clear the first set of table goals only to find that some of the Wizard goals were, to me, easier and in fact I got them already (but didn't get credit for them, obviously). I am really having trouble understanding why "advance to Jupiter" is in the Pin*Bot normal goals when even the instructions call it the primary goal of the entire game. [EDIT: Never mind, the instructions are just broken strangely. The Sun makes a lot more sense.] More to the point, as far as I can tell, there is no good way to aim a direct shot at either the bank targets or the Advance Planet hole given their position relative to the flippers. And the bank targets are on a timer! I bet this is super-easy for everybody else but I'm not getting it. Any advice welcome. That fifth star has been taunting me for ages .... [/QUOTE]
