Pinball High Scores - King of the Pin

[swinks]

Hi All

This post started due to a challenge put out there by MUD and suggested by pinnies4me in the suggestions section to start a thread in this category - sounds like fun so here goes.

Idea - A Fun Challenge for others to beat your score on a pinball, and maybe we can list a number of pinballs here also and start a new section if it goes well.

You must state:
- manufacturer
- game year
- your game
- 3 or 5 balls game setup
- score
- photo proving that you achieved the score


Therefore I will start off with a photo attached.
- White Water / Williams
- 5 balls with no free balls offered in set up
- 327,485, 680 points

As of 29-3-12 this post will be the updated score keeping instead of a attached spreadsheet. This will be in order of manufacturer and then year to stay in sync with other sections of the forum. Once the top 3 scores are in and if a fourth comes along it will bump a high score without a photo as well as any low scores with a photo.

WHAT IS YOUR HIGHEST SCORE    

[robm]

Whitewater

3 ball, factory settings

A quick game one Monday morning before work turned into something epic!! Ended up getting 2.1B on the 1st ball - mainly achieved by getting the Whirlpool mode absolutely nailed, i seemed to be able to get it timed spot on so a ball would eject onto the right flipper, bouce to the left and slot it up the centre shot, just as the popper would shoot the other ball onto the upper playfield to get it in the whirlpool    - i think i ended up getting whirlpool jackpots of over 100M.  Then i choked on the last couple of balls

End score 2.291 Billion

[pinnies4me]

Good stuff! If we get enough interest we'll set up a section and game specific threads in it.

Congrats Rob

Short lived for me, but hey all in the name of fun and creating theurge to get on there and improve.

Actually, your score still stands as you used 5 ball setting.

Back in 1992 I got my highest score ever on a Pinball Machine and enterd it in a pinball comp. You had to get a certen high score to go into the playoff round of the Timezone pinball comp of 1992.
Came second, but was not good enough at that time to go on to the next round.
Took a pick of this Williams the Getaway with my high score in a local milk bar at the time.

944,474,310
I now have my own Williams The Getaway and over the two years I have oned it I have come close to my all time high score but never beat it.......

[swinks]

For quick reference I thought a quick spread sheet would help until we get a section of our own it is liked.

Remember to send your photo and ball number in play to go up on the board along with your game specs.

And it's all for fun and it just gets you out in the shed to have another go.

[PinPal]

Its 944,474,310

[swinks]

Updated

keep the photos and details coming

[ajlaird]

Its 944,474,310

Was that 3-ball or 5-ball, and can you remember any of the settings?

[swinks]

PinPal let me know via a personal email that it was a 3 bay game with some bonus balls scored during the game.

[TUF-427]

I have another idea also to include on the spreadsheet,

 Getaway for example has a "Loop Champion" number recorded Ill kick it off with 5 loops 

im sure their will be better than this!

Hi Peter

I know where you are coming from but we still need to encourage people to post there scores with photos etc before we add more details - definitely keep it in the memory banks for the moment. - what's your score for Getaway, have you got a photo - still 2nd and 3rd place position for grabs.

No Probs Jady,

Heres my pretty ordinary HSTD on Getaway 3 ball MEDIUM Level Game defaults.

Have had better scores but no proof

recently installed L5 software chip (had L2) that resets your machine to defaults automatically...beware of this everyone!

Cheers Peter..

[PinPal]

Think my Getaway Chip is L2,  With the L5 chip Is there eney Difference in the game play or with the machine?
