High score competition #144: Pinball Action
popsicle:
'One more game before bed' yields my best score ever - 1,084,900.
I had a 4x multiplier and a long run on both the bowling and poker table with one ball which got me to 600k and a couple of extra balls. One good streak can make all the difference :)

Played twice. Like it. Very relaxing, soothing, slow-paced--I can see some long long games, especially with an extra ball every 100k(?).
292,010, as usual, with 1-year-old-on-the-lap-button-mashing interference.
Thanks,

Couple more improvements but still can't get past the 1M mark -- 944,590 and 989,940
A couple more observations --
1 -- try to finish one of the 3 tables early ( 3 strikes, matching symbols, royal straight ) - as once one table is completed it lights the 1,000 point bumper on that table and the main table - which helps increase score.
2 -- Each trip to all 3 tables gives an extra ball (doesn't have to be on the same ball as previously thought)
3 -- completing A B C targets on all but main table - opens right side drain protection as well as increasing multiplier making it easier to last awhile.
