Once you max the multiplier then increase the multiplier level (up to the maximum of 20k) in the following ways:</div><div dir="auto"><font color="#252525"><br></font></div><div dir="auto"><li style="font-family: arial; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><font color="#252525">by 1000 for each hit of the 3 drop-target bank;</font></li><li style="font-family: arial; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><font color="#252525">by 1000 for each hit of the 5 drop-target bank, when the adjacent green spot is not lit;</font></li><li style="font-family: arial; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><font color="#252525">by 1000 for each revolution of the spinner target, after the 5 drop-targets are completed;</font></li><li style="font-family: arial; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><font color="#252525">by 1000 for each sink in the kick-out holes;</font></li><li style="font-family: arial; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><font color="#252525">by 1000 for each hit on the left standing target;</font></li><li style="font-family: arial; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><font color="#252525">by 3000 for each "A" or "B" rollover, when the white "Multi-bonus" lamp is lit.</font></li><font color="#252525" face="arial"><br></font></div><div dir="auto">When you have maxed out the multiplier and the level then focus on hitting the center kick-out hole. When you hit the center hole the 100k bonus will be added to your score while keeping the bonus multiplier at maximum. Then rack up the multiplier level again and rinse and repeat. </div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto"><font color="#252525" style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">Extra balls are given by </font></div><div dir="auto"><li style="font-family: arial;"><font color="#252525" style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">completing the bank of 5 drop-targets and then completing the bank of 3 drop-targets whilst the red spot below is lit;</font></li><li style="font-family: arial;"><font color="#252525" style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">hitting the centre standing target 3 times and then hitting the left spot target;</font></li><li style="font-family: arial;"><font color="#252525" style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">completing the "A" and "B" rollovers and then hitting the middle drop-target of the bank of 5, when the adjacent pink spot is lit</font><span style="color: rgb(6, 0, 165); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">.</span></li></div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">No idea how pinburgh will handle the extra balls on this game.</div><div dir="auto">Best way to max the multiplier is to hit A and B then shatz the inlanes. This is probably the best strategy for an advanced player not familiar with the game. Personally i pummel the drops because i have played the game religiously for 34+ years and know the shots like the back of my hand but that is the case for the vast majority of players.</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Marc Borger</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div id="composer_signature" dir="auto"><div style="font-size:85%;color:#575757" dir="auto">Sent from my Sprint Samsung Galaxy S8.</div></div><div><br></div><div style="font-size:100%;color:#000000" dir="auto"><!-- originalMessage --><div>-------- Original message --------</div><div>From: Joe Schober via FSPA <fspa@fspazone.org> </div><div>Date: 7/25/19 7:49 PM (GMT-05:00) </div><div>To: FSPA main discussion list <fspa@fspazone.org> </div><div>Cc: Joe Schober <afljoeys@aol.com> </div><div>Subject: [FSPA] Ermigerd, Pinburgh! </div><div><br></div></div>Pinburgh and ReplayFX are just one week away!<div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">This means a couple things for you, pinball fans:</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">1) If you're lucky enough to have one of the golden tickets to Pinburgh, congrats and good luck! I'd suggest you verify now that your TourneyGuru account is working well on the mobile device that you'll have at Pinburgh, and if not, write <<a href="mailto:guru@tourneyguru.org" class="">guru@tourneyguru.org</a>> and we'll get you sorted out. I don't want to deal with this in Pittsburgh. This also applies to any new players who do not have TourneyGuru accounts yet... it's a free service available to current/recent FSPA players that is quite helpful at quickly bringing you up to speed on unfamiliar games. And BTW, since I get asked this periodically: yes, TG is available year 'round, not just for Pinburgh, so feel free to use it for any tournaments you play in. But it's been updated with the Pinburgh 2019 banks.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">1a) The database needs strategies for several games:</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;"><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">Amazing Spider-Man</div><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">Atlantis (Gottlieb EM)</div><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">Batman 66</div><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">Black Knight SoR</div><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">Blackout</div><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">Bonanza</div><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">Catacomb</div><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">Coney Island</div><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">Deadpool</div><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">Elektra</div><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">Freefall</div><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">Gondolier</div><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">Hee Haw</div><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">Hi Deal</div><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">Laser War</div><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">Lost World</div><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">Mario Andretti</div><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">Middle Earth</div><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">Mini Zag</div><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">Munsters</div><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">Paradise</div><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">Pirates JJP</div><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">Pro Football</div><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">Seawitch [as Dave H said: <i class="">seriously?</i>]</div><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">Space Mission</div><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">Space Odyssey</div><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">Stingray</div><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">Tropic Isle</div><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">Warlok</div><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">Willy Wonka</div><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;"><br class=""></div></div></div><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">If you're familiar with these games and can contribute strategies, please send them to <<a href="mailto:guru@tourneyguru.org" class="">guru@tourneyguru.org</a>>.
