[QUOTE="DanBradford, post: 92725, member: 2331"] Finally nailed a big 4xSJ this afternoon thanks to shutyertrap's advice. I got it a few times yesterday when the base jackpot wasn't up high enough to satisfy, so it felt nice to score over a billion in one shot. I'm hooked though. I had forgotten that scoring the SJ doubles the base value, so when I finally flailed my last ball down the drain, at that point the base was over 300M, and a 4xJ followed by 4xSJ at *that* point woulda been worth AT LEAST 1.2B plus 2.4B = 3.6B and the base would again have been doubled to well over 600M...... so the one after that, taking into account that every few minutes the base climbs just from popper hits, lets say it had reached 625M, would have been 7.5B ......... Suddenly I can see how Lyman allegedly scored over 20B on a Creech. He would have needed to get the multiplied SJ about four or five times, and could potentially have done all that in a relatively short space of time. Blimey. Gotta love exponential scoring systems. ______________________________ On the subject of pezpunk's discovery of the potential route to EBs, I've set a few pinhead mates in the UK the task of testing this out on a real Creech with the glass off. Who knows, maybe there's a similar Easter egg for each of the songs in the game? I think you get a different song each ball, all played in "three-day rotation" - whatever that means, exactly. That's the description in the promotional flyer. The five songs are - Rock Around The Clock Get a Job Summertime Blues Hand Jive Red River Rock I have no idea which of these is the one being played at the start of ball 1 [/QUOTE]
