[QUOTE="Tann, post: 160355, member: 2327"] It's called "the horribly annoying bug" and it drives me crazy too! (knockout during the UC) It seems to be related to the original ROM and not to be TPA's fault. Read the 1st page of this topic: [url]http://digitalpinballfans.com/showthread.php/5060-Ultimate-Challenge-Strategy[/url] The key seems to be to stop playing as soon as you heard the "knockout music", in order to not break the UC. And to not use Smart Punches for the first three opponents. That Ultimate Challenge is more a matter of luck than anything else, and it makes this wizard goal the hardest IMO (yep, beyond Genie 3M!). I'm lazy to work on that one, because it's so long to start the UC (I reached it 5 times - 3 loss during the third fight, and 2 horribly annoying bugs-), and moreover, that table can be very punitive even before you start the UC. EDIT: oops, didn't see the date (November 2013!) EDIT 2: Finally did it a few minutes ago after 4 games (UC reached only one time... and success)! lol I stopped playing as soon there was the knockout music, and by luck, the center post never get down when I needed it. But two times, there was the knockout music, and I'm almost sure the third and four opponents were K.O...? I used 4 or 5 smart punches like crazy only for the fifth and last opponent. And finally: Goal 5 completed. Jeez. [/QUOTE]
