Does anyone have any pointers for putting up decent scores on this game? I've had mine for two months, it's in good working order and I haven't even come close to putting up a high score on it yet. My best score is 1.7 million but my usual game is around 200-400k. I'm not a great player by any means but I usually can put together a decent game every so often on any machine. So far, Space Shuttle has shut me down. And I love it by the way--the game, not getting shut down. Any pro tips?

Thanks for the replies. This is really helpful. The spinner and the drop targets next to it weren't something that I paid much attention to. I didn't even know that the drop targets did anything other than open the airlock.

Quoted from pindel:

. Also the pop bumpers need to be set right in order for the ball to get bumped back into the "U S A" area to rack up bonus multiplier. I've played tuned vs not tuned Space shuttles and the difference is night and day.

Good suggestions. My pops do seem a little sluggish. Perhaps that's a contributing factor.
