I am in the habit so much of instantly hitting restart, its almost as natural as flipping a flipper!   My fear is that if the game goes to multi player online, I will instinctively hit restart and lose the match!  The other issue with this is that, if you play 10 games in a row that you felt the 1st ball did not live up to its potential, by the time you have a 1st ball that does, you are already burnt out from all the playing you already did and that may be the cause of your immediate ball drainage ...I think to improve my highest score I too need to make lighting the extra ball roll under my top priority and to spend more time down in the black hole with at least 1g going.  I can hit the 5x multiplier and do the ball catch down in the black hole easily, I think my problem is that I am spending too much time down in the black hole when I do not have the 1g lit and not enough time down there when it is not lit.Tonight I should have some time free time to get into the game and I am really dying to hit the 2 Mil mark, lets see what happens ...</blockquote>
