Completing Wizard Goals in just two games?

[Tabe]

Inspired by the "which game did you complete Wizard Goals on first?" thread, I ask this:

What's the fastest you've completed Wizard Goals on a particular table? The absolute minimum is two games - anybody else done that? Closest I've come is Central Park, which took me three games. I actually did it in just one game but, of course, the Wizard Goals from that first game don't count. Considering I'd never seen the table before, I was pretty pleased

So...whatcha got?

Three games? Central Park?

Are you, by any chance, some kind of pinball specialised cyborg from the future?

Supplementary question - you're not hellbent on the destruction of humanity are you? We're friends though, right?

Quickest for me was Firepower. Just a few games (not sure of the number)

One look at my scores on any leaderboard would most certainly dissuade you from ever thinking I'm some kind of pinball freak, that's for sure.

I remember getting to the wizard mode of Cactus Canyon in just my second game, but I didn't get all the goals.

I don't like the way wizard goals aren't checked off before you unlock them. For example, the 60M goal on Class of 1812 - I got that score before unlocking the wizard goals. And I haven't been able to do it again. Looking at the leaderboards, that's basically a top 100 score. So nope... very little chance of me doing that twice. So even though I already did it, it doesn't credit me for it

I hate, hate, hate that, too. I've had several "did 'em once, can't do 'em again" wizard goals that didn't unlock because I hadn't finished the standard ones yet. Also hate that you can't see what the standard goals are after you've completed them. I recently re-completed all the Big Shot standard goals, all in one game, and don't know what they were. I know I can look them up in a thread here somewhere but I'd rather be able to do that right on my console.

BK2K, just got all the goals in 2 games last fri PC

I definitely got all of the Central Park wizard goals in 2 games. I got all of the Firepower wizard goals l, my first game after unlocking them, but I think it might have taken more than 1 game to beat the standard goals.

Centaur was a fast one for me but I don't remember how many actual games it took as I don't usually pay very close attention to the goals. I remember that I started Centaur with a wild run and that I initially thought there was some kind of a bug that made it so easy.
Needless to say that kind of run hasn't repeated itself since.

I spent two, maybe three hours trying to replicate the 60M game on 1812 last night. Farsight, if you could change the logic for this, that would be great.

Ended up getting a Top 20 score with over 90M, mind you, so there was an incentive at the end. Spend hours trying to get 60M, then completely blow that out of the water.

Start reporting your dissatisfaction for this nested goals issue officially.

For the record, I agree goals should be flat not nested.
