[QUOTE="Luobo, post: 62026, member: 2262"] I currently have the 3:rd highest score on Genie with some 300+ million points. How dare you question the legitimacy of my score and my pinball skills?! :mad: No, just kidding. My score is due to a bug that registers the score from the wrong table, in my case Attack from Mars. (For those who haven't played AFM, that is not a very impressive score - you can get 300 million points playing blind folded. Had I been aware of the bug and really wanted to take advantage of it, I would easily have been able to get a couple of billions and claim first place.) This bug is what I think is the reason for several of the fishy scores. So when you see a score that is unrealistically high, and it almost seems like it belongs to another table, it's because it [B]should [/B]belong to another table! Naturally, I will not give away any details how to replicate the circumstances of the bug, it's bad the way it already is. I think it's a shame Pinball Arcade is such a buggy game and that you can't trust the high scores. I wouldn't mind if FarSight removed my score, because it's not legit and it doesn't belong there. (Heck, I don't even like playing Genie.) [/QUOTE]
