After a couple of lame-o games scoring less than 1 million, I scored over 7 million points. Then I played a doosie (all three balls into the outlames) and then I had another great game. Somewhere in the middle of the game, I activated midnight madness! Got an extra ball sometime during Midnight Madness mode, and after midnight madness was over, my ball drained at just under 8 million. Oh well, I forgot I'd been awarded an extra ball during Midnight Madness, and it told me to "SHOOT AGAIN!" Yippee! Either way I got the Grand Champion score of 8 million and something, and was surprized when I had to enter my initials twice, second time for the Midnight Madness high score, just over 3 millions. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite6" alt=":cool:" title="Cool    :cool:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":cool:" /> Anyway it was a blast and quite a cool Easter Egg.Confirmation that despite the fact Ouya has no real-time standby clock (no internal battery to maintain accurate time), it updates the time via the Internet every time you boot the console. Sadly this would make it a pain to "cheat" by tampering with the system clock, as I believe you can only set the time zone in settings and toggle Daylight Savings Time on or off, so with tampering Midnight Madness can only be activated once per hour sadly. And I did not "cheat" by manipulating the system clock. It really was midnight local time. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite11" alt=":rolleyes:" title="Roll eyes    :rolleyes:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":rolleyes:" />Next time I'm up past my bedtime, I'll try it with the Who Dunnit table. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite2" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=";)" /></blockquote>
