Just a quick question, is there anything else to be accomplished after getting lost in the zone? I have gotten to it probably a dozen times in the 3 years I have owned the game. I have it set to semi easy (probably should make it more difficult) have the buy in enabled and can earn up to 3 extra balls. Just wondering if there is anything else to do except play through all the door panels again? Thanks in advance!

Pretty sure that's it, default lost in the zone champ is 300,000,000. Try to double, triple, or quadruple that to give yourself a goal to work towards (assuming that those scores can be achieved on that mode, I'm not sure since I've never gotten there myself) otherwise set it to extra hard, remove the out lane rubbers to start then the posts if it's still to easy for you, and go from there.

Getting to LITZ more than once in a game pretty much or just trying to maximize your scores through good multiballs and powerball manias. So no, there's no larger goal past LITZ.

I never understood buy-in on a free-play machine. may as well just wall off the outlanes and play till you get bored.

Mine is set to only one buy in, still makes it easier!

Like most 90's machines, you just start to cycle again. TZ is pretty deep though, it's not like MB where after getting MOR, even if I'm still on ball 1 or 2, I'm just bored, and don't want to do it anymore.

With TZ, one thing I enjoy in multiple LITZ's is trying to cash out a huge hitchhiker payout when that's lit. I believe I had it up to 70-80 one time, and the countdown gave me a boner

My best score was 4.6B and I did LITZ 4 times. Prior to that I had been fighting to get to a 3rd. I can tell you unlike machines like MB, where even getting to Monster Bash MB twice is boring, multiples of LITZ are NEVER dull or boring.

I use buy-in for one ball on pins that maintain two high score lists like Shadow. That way, if I'm into a game that ends without getting on the non buy-in list, I can continue to try for the other list. Its good if you've set up the pin for something and you don't want to work back to the same spot.

I don't use buy-ins on pins that don't have separate lists...that's cheating...
