It's a Knockout! 2011/12: Qualifying Round - Pinball Dreams

Starts: 00:01 December 4 Finishes: 23:59 December 17

Once more unto the breach, dear friends. Here starts your journey to greatness, or maybe it'll be tilt tilt tilt and out. Either way - have fun.

Rules


Rules are available here. Super League rules are here.

We are playing the Nightmare table ONLY in this round.


Post a picture of your score here with the score written underneath. Enter as often as you like.

No cheating (including save states) - anyone caught cheating gets disqualified.

Here's how the qualifying system works:

Between 9-13 people enter: 8 people qualify.
Between 14-17 people enter: 12 people qualify.
18+ people enter: 16 people qualify.

Remember you have to enter this round to have any chance of playing later on - but please only enter if you feel you will be able to commit to playing the full tournament.

Have fun and feel free to ask any questions you may have.

A sweet run with some multipliers, a nice bonus of around 17 million and a few 5 million bonuses.
Very much beatable (I got 65 million or so earlier in the year), but not bad for the 1st days play

Interesting choice, as the Nightmare table has "add no.1 score to your score" as one of the prizes in the random prize feature. None the less, expect me to post a score very soon.

I'm back from my little jaunt away and a big thanks to Mike and Biccy for sorting out everything while I separated from my computer by about 200 miles, I appreciate it.

I'm astonished to see so many entries on day one! And here's another one, guaranteeing that we will go to a group stage of at least 12 players after this round...

back in 1993 there was a time that I got over 450,000,000. That damned ball just didn't want to fall into the "game over" hole
Not to mention that PD was my second game that I run on my Amiga 600... (Yep, I have original game stashed somewhere in the attic)

May I request that new entrants be denied entry and Ze Emulatron and kkgarbod not submit new scores?

EDIT: Ok I shocked myself with this score.
