    Been trying to grand champ DM for months. I've got tons better and I feel like I finally know how to play it. I've got some decent scores (for my amateur abilities anyway)... just haven't got the GC yet.

    Soo... I'm on my last ball and I notice my score is just within a few mil of GC. I get nervous... make a ridiculous shot. I get a bad bounce off my dumb shot and know it's going to drain down the center. As I watch it drain I get mad and shove the machine like a crazy person (which was pointless because there was no saving this drain). Of course my violent outburst TILTS the machine. Worst part is... I would have got an epic bonus for that last ball and finally got the GC score. But, because of the Tilt I get no bonus and I'm shy only a million or so. Arg!

    Oh, no. Your subject line means just the opposite!

    Oops. Good catch. I was angry at the time. Changed "caused" to be "cost".

    Guess what? I just did it!! Finally got the GC!!

    I know this pic opens me up for ridicule since a lot of you could set this score with your eyes closed... but for me a proud moment nonetheless.

    Quoted from Atomicboy:

    Man.... you would cry like a baby if I told you what my high was before I sold it []

    Quoted from rwalters21:

    Wow, I wish the GC score on my DM was in that range. Mine is at 3.6 billion!

    I know, I know. I'll get there someday. I promise (or hope).

    My GC was the default factory GC... haha.

    Now I want to knock off the default Demolition Time score of 500m. I usually never play for Demolition Time... just for lock freezes.
