[QUOTE="Trackball, post: 242465, member: 5924"] Oh, I know--just that my mild OCD tells me to get those darn things out of the way...unless the goals are ridiculously hard to get, like Genie's 3 million or Addams Family's Super Bear Bonus (never even gotten halfway there), in which case I don't bother. And then there's Starship Troopers' Recon Combo, a TABLE GOAL, which has eluded me for years...but I digress. My point is, I usually go for the achievements first, THEN try for score. Or just turn off extra balls (especially on Judge Dredd, which gives out WAY too many, and the pro tips admit this) and put on Tournament Mode. Hey, that's why I got the Pro packs--so I could play how I wanted. Like I said, this is for fun. Getting on the leaderboards is just a bonus for me...and yes, I'm well aware I can't make the leaderboards if I mess with the operator menus. I'm fine with that...though I do wish Farsight would do tournaments with the games actually SET to tournament settings...do they? And most importantly, Farsight's game has re-kindled my interest in real-life pinball, as I'm sure it has for many other people. There's been a mild resurgence in popularity for the hobby lately, and I believe Farsight is largely to thank for that. Getting more people into pinball can only help the hobby. ...I think I just derailed my own topic. [/QUOTE]
