    Never re-start. Some of my highest scores were off games with a lousy first ball.

    Quoted from RobT:

    So many people saying that they don't restart because the 2nd or 3rd ball can be epic.
    You ever stop to think that if you restarted that that "epic ball" would either be ball 1 or 2 (and you'd still have a third ball to go)?

    Well, yes, but it's almost guaranteed that an epic ball 1 means a fast drain on one or both of the remaining ones.
