[QUOTE="Slam23, post: 254382, member: 896"] Nice post, indeed somebody had to! :) Now stop reading if you want to enjoy the table, below I discuss a strategy that will kill the other gameplay for you. About scoring: there is one gamebreaking strategy and that is to maximize the mega-bonus. This is the last mode on top of the "pyramid" after which you get to slay the beast (and get three chances at that same mega-bonus). Depending on how you start mega-bonus, it's a 2- (from the plunger) or 3-ball mode (from the right saucer). The trick is to get at least one ball on the lower left flipper, and one on the upper right. Now you can loop the "L" orbit for 3M a pop. The upright upper left flipper will feed the ball back to the upper right one, to set up the next "L" shot. I had it up to 900M+ in my best game, don't know yet if it will pass 1B. It's a bit repetitive to get it up that high, and you still have to hit the "I" lane, the Abyss and the Catapult saucer to get the mega-bonus in-game. You'll at least get it once at the end of the game, after you drained your last ball. It actually spoils the game for me, because all other ways to get points and even EB's to some degree become pointless. [/QUOTE]
