This morning it seems like the moons aligned. Once I had 3 locks lit I probably tried 3 or 4 times to shoot the Boulder Garden orbit to light 5x playfield. Once that was done I aimed for No Way Out and missed, and the ball ended up back in the Boulder Garden. I was like, "NOOOO!" but it didn't hit any of the bumpers.
And so it began: "WHIIITE WATERRRR!!!" Jackpot shot 1, 2, 3! YES, I was rocking 5x triple jackpots!! I think I got one or two after those and ended up with 415(?) million just after that (my record is just over 500). Man you talk about nervous! I then proceeded to start Bigfoot Hot Foot and raid his cave FIVE times! Got to Camera Craze as well. When that was over THEN I happened to start Boulder Bash and scored probably 20 something hits there. After that I started Whirlpool Challenge and thought, "This will be easy." Pop, flip, CRAP!!! Missed, drain, oh well so much for that. At this point I'm sitting at about 480 million.
As soon as I realized this was going to be a good game seems like I was racking up points left and right. I was in the zone! And although I didn't beat my high score, I'm more than happy to have been lucky enough to start 5x multiball AND play it to my maximum advantage. Not sure I'll be doing that again in a long time...
Now to beat the GC score of 1 billion plus!
