Yeah I'm feeling more confident with my score now, but pretty sure I'll need to get higher if I want to make it through.

It looks like he added his score by editing an old post, always do a new post when submitting scores so we don't miss them, Thanks.

I think this is going to be tough to qualify this year. Luckily I managed to better my previous score today (not by much though)
I was lucky enough to activate the midnight hour bonus and collect it twice (by shooting the ball up the right side twice in a row very quickly), aswell as collecting a few 5 million bonuses

This.

It's worth remembering edited posts do not show up as unread so please, always, ALWAYS post a new score separately even if it's a double post. Never take for granted that we know it's there!

Man this table irritates me immensely. Its the only one of the four where in one game you can do really well, and the next, lucky to break 1,000,000....grrrrr!

[Graham Humphrey]

Minimal improvement. Bizarrely, lost the ball off the side of the screen and it wouldn't come back. I had to tilt the table so it became officially 'lost' and continued as normal.

That happened to me earlier in the year, but checking my attachments shows that it was on Beat Box (picture is still viewable on the appropriate rounds thread) and not on Nightmare. Must be a random glitch in the game.

Also, not that you can tell from the screenshots I posted, but spaces in the name (in the ADF version linked in first post) actually appear as spaces. The ADF's we used earlier in the year had spaces come up as N's

Notice almost all the graveyard letters lit, I was one target away from doubling that score...

[Lonewolf10]

Is that what happens when you light the "graveyard" letters? I can sometimes light the grave part, but the yard has eluded me so far.

The second you get the 'd' your score doubles.

Wow, amazing score capehorn. I'm guessing that you managed to double your score atleast once using the "graveyard" letters?

Are you sure that is one of the prizes? I got all excited (not in that way!) when I saw "adding the top players score" only to realise it added the best score of today (which at that point was 5 million ). Is there a full list of the random prizes somewhere?

You can score 55m in five flips, just hit the top trap where the 'init' and the 'jackpot' are five times. The fourth collects the jackpot and a fifth within a couple of seconds of the fourth collects the super jackpot worth 50m. I usually go for that to start, then if I double my score I am up to 100m just like that.

Needless to say the 1m, 3m, 100k and hold bonus are much more likely than the others.
