[QUOTE="Tann, post: 170363, member: 2327"] It finally registered this week. \o/ I took me something like one hundred of attempts! :rolleyes: Once the special is lit, the targets have to be shoot under 7 seconds [U]and[/U] in order (from F to L). With so many attempts, I found one consistent ball behavior, with a little variant: [CENTER][FONT=Arial Black][SIZE=4][U]- The Lucky Way -[/U][/SIZE][/FONT]- (I encountered this two times, succeeded the second time)[/CENTER] [table="width: 100%, align: left"] [tr] [td="width: 50%"][img]http://oi68.tinypic.com/52dhs4.jpg[/img][/td] [td] Right after the last 200K Bonus letter is shot and the special lits, you have to hold trap the ball on the left flipper (it takes ~3 seconds). Once the ball is stopped, shoot as soon as you can to hit the [COLOR="#FF0000"][B]F[/B][/COLOR] letter ([B][COLOR="#008000"]1[/COLOR][/B]). Usually, the ball will come back like in [B]1'[/B], and you can shoot straight to the [COLOR="#FF0000"][B]U[/B][/COLOR] letter. But if it's your lucky day, the [B][COLOR="#FF0000"]U[/COLOR][/B] and the [COLOR="#FF0000"][B]E [/B][/COLOR]letter will get down at the same time ([B][COLOR="#008000"]2[/COLOR][/B])! Then the ball will go straight to the right flipper ([B]2'[/B]) and it will be time to use the Force, because it's a one-try shot: one and only one attempt to shot the last [B][COLOR="#FF0000"]L[/COLOR][/B] letter. ([B][COLOR="#008000"]3[/COLOR][/B]). If the shot is missed, it's over (no time left). Otherwise, Goal Complete! [/td] [/tr] [/table] [CENTER][FONT=Arial Black][SIZE=4][U]- The Not So Lucky Way -[/U][/SIZE][/FONT]- (I encountered this a lot of times, never succeeded)[/CENTER] [table="width: 100%, align: left"] [tr] [td="width: 50%"][img]http://oi68.tinypic.com/r1iwie.jpg[/img][/td] [td] To shoot the [B][COLOR="#FF0000"]F[/COLOR][/B] letter, [B][COLOR="#008000"]A[/COLOR][/B] et [B]A' [/B]are the same than [B][COLOR="#008000"]1[/COLOR][/B] and [B]1'[/B] in the Lucky Way. But [B][COLOR="#008000"]B[/COLOR][/B] differs from [B][COLOR="#008000"]2[/COLOR][/B], because only the [B][COLOR="#FF0000"]U[/COLOR][/B] letter will get down.

If it comes back to the left flipper, it's almost impossible to shoot the [COLOR="#FF0000"][B]E[/B][/COLOR] letter: most of the time, the ball will go to the ramps ([B]X[/B]).
