During a game today I had a bizarre thing happen. I THINK what happened was after shooting the right orbit, a flipped with the left flipper, and the ball struck the tip of the upper right flipper, and rebounded all the way up the warp ramp. It's something I've ALMOST had happen a few times, and I wondered if it was possible to pull off.

I just happened to glance up at the DMD in time to see the words "Unusual combo" in a small font against a blank screen. There was no point value attributed to the combo as far as I could tell.

It's as if the machine was saying... "Well, that was crazy!"

Anybody else see this message ever??

No, but might have to take glass off to see it fir myself now

I think it might have said "Unique Combo" maybe? I know I've seen "Unique combo" displayed before in the small font like you described while playing, but never payed attention to which shots I hit to get it

I'm pretty sure it said Unique Combo. That just means that the current code doesn't have the little animation splash that it presumably eventually will for the combo that you hit.

Hmmm... I'm pretty sure it said "unusual"... But I could be mistaken.

Yep, that's exactly what it says.

Or more likely means the code was copied and pasted from Xmen.

Interesting was the rebound off the upper flipper when it was down / you did not push the right flipper button ?

I've seen this too but I don't know what I did. Only noticed it once though.

I THINK it rebounded off the tip of the upper flipper while it was out... It happened pretty fast!
