This is why I snap a picture when I get a once-in-a-lifetime score:

But really, the only scores that matter are those posted in a tournament or league.
I wish more people would share HOW they achieved their super-high scores. That's good information.
Quoted from sevenrites:So for all you people who could care less about scores, I'm just a bit confused as to what goals you set for yourself when you play a game. How do you measure your success on the table? Oh, I kept the ball in play for a whole minute today! Oh wow, I made a scoop shot! Oh, awesome, I hit a spinner. Hey kids, check it out, dad hit the tricky red target today!!! Woohoo! This thing is cool!
Seriously, you don't play the lottery to get losing numbers do you? You're playing to win!
Thumbs-down for long-winded strawman argument. Of course we all care about scores. But I mainly compare my scores to other scores on my specific games - that's why I have a High Score board in our gameroom. Frankly treating the scores posted here as "high scores" is kind of silly.
