High scores from my twelve favorite tables:

Attack from Mars – 24,179,025,740
Big Shot – 325,880
Black Hole – 5,411,290
Cactus Canyon – 161,485,840
Centaur – 11,273,780
Firepower – 1,756,350
Gorgar – 1,712,240
Monster Bash – 788,044,930

Taxi – 15,173,570
Twilight Zone – 1,532,475,730
Whirlwind – 29,244,200

I’d list them all but that’s a lot of typing, and the other scores are pretty weak.

Say PoSTedUP! What happened on Centaur? You totally nailed that one. I get dizzy watching all the balls bouncing around down here, on the lower tiers of the scoreboard; certainly that was a frenzied session. You, no doubt, totally trashed the Queen’s chamber.

I was completely obsessed for a while, but I burnt out on Space Shuttle. I had a few good games but there was a lot of practice behind them and a lot of luck involved. I’m out of practice now and I can’t ride the luck as far as I was able to. It’s daunting. I don’t want to practice that much anymore! I’m having the same experience with Taxi. I went away from it for too long and now I fizzle out way before I get anywhere near my bests. I still like it but I play it for fun only and don’t even try to score well.

Theatre of Magic is awesome but I’ve only managed to play a few games and only achieved the lowly score of 2,600,000,000. I have it on my iMac and I rarely sit in front of it when I play – it feels too much like my working pose. I keep procrastinating on buying the iPad version. I bought Black Hole iOS way back when and they way they’ve repackaged things I’d have to buy the 3-pack TOM, Ripley’s and Black Hole for 9 bucks. Still a bargain, true, but I’ve had trouble taking the leap when I have all 3 on the iMac (back in the day those were all included for free.)
