Never heard of a pacman (or ms. pacman) version where you get more than one extra life. Maybe you should try one of the bootlegs.

You should never, NEVER pause the game to make your changes.  It causes all kinds of trouble.  Not sure why, but all changes should be made not paused.

Oh, I didn't read the message correctly then.  You are correct. The real game ONLY gives you a bonus at 10,000.  That's it.  You do not get any additional bonuses later.  I have the real board and real roms in a cocktail and know that for a fact.

I skimmed your message too quickly and though you wern't getting them at the low #, only at the high.  My mistake.

Yeah, I have a real Pac-Man machine and you only get 1 bonus, no matter how high the score gets.

oh ok. i woin't spend all my time trying for another extra life then. peale- thanks for the warning about pausing and tabbing. i do (now did) do it all the time. only bad that happening was i somehow screwed up which key made the config menu showup and had a heck of a time fixing that.
thanks all!
