[QUOTE="vikingerik, post: 133226, member: 3745"] Got two more tips. Easy Bonus Multipliers: The right inlane is hard to hit to light the bonus multiplier, except with this tip. Hold the right flipper when the Powerball is ejecting from the slot kickout and it will bounce into the right inlane. It's also timed well to shoot the left ramp on the fly to collect the multiplier. (Messing around with the Powerball like this may or may not be a good idea, but could be worthwhile if Collect Bonus is lit at the camera or if the PB happens to be in play during a multiball.) Easy Spiral Awards: The left inlane isn't the only way to light and score the Spiral Award. Shooting the right Spiral twice quickly also scores it (first shot lights it for the second, just like Funhouse's Gangway.) And here's how to shoot it twice quickly: just load the gumball, then from the slot kickout dead pass and quickly shoot it again from the left flipper. Don't cradle or hold at all on the left flipper, just shoot it on the fly right after the dead pass, but this is actually pretty easy, and is fast enough to catch the Spiral still lit. That means an additional reliable way to get an Extra Ball, if you can do it six times on one ball. So save all the gumball loads until you need an EB. Because it needs two sequential shots, this only works once per Powerball trip through the gumball machine. It doesn't work when the Powerball is the ejected ball because the extra animation makes the Spiral time out. So you have to play Powerball Mania six times (or else put the Powerball out of the way in the lock) but that's not a bad thing. I just put up a 78B score, and only figured that out right towards the end of the game. I always haven't quite been able to go infinite with extra balls, but this trick might put me over the top past 100B to the #1 slot. Will try again sometime this week. [/QUOTE]
