[QUOTE="Advalle, post: 52603, member: 872"] Way to go on your first 1Billion score. 'Believe it or not' :cool: the road from 1Bill to 3Bill should be waaaaay less bumpy than from 0 to 1Bill. Keep on trying As for the bugged leaderboards, the guys at Farsight have told me twice they are fixing it soon but that has been 3 months already, so I am not sure it will happen soon, but that s ok. Yeah, there are only 9 extra balls for a total of 12 drains. Here is a trick that sometimes keeps me straight while I play: Try to keep AT LEAST to 1 Tour per every 1 Drain that you play. This would theoretically give you a total of 12 Tours. Here is a simple way to work your points: If you use 2x in the Tour Bonus and you Nailed AUSTRAILIA and ASIA (easiest conts) there is a 20Mill increment (or thereabouts) added per TOUR. So I am counting as though you only complete those two continents (this is considered tight playing). That means for the 12 Tours you have this many points per tour: Tour 1 = 20 Million Bonus Tour 2 = 40 Million Bonus Tour 3 = 60 Million Bonus Tour 4 = 80 Million Bonus …………(continue in this fashion)…….. Tour 11 = 220 Million Bonus Tour 12 = 240 Million Bonus Add all these points and that gives you a total of 1.60 Billion on bonus ALONE. (Get lucky and nail a couple more tours and that means an extra half a Bill) Meaning, that if you put a nice Atlantis on top of it, or nail that South America every now and then or increase the N. America jackpot and this will result in you being on the top spots as a consequence. Of course my style is Not repetitive like I explained it above. I throw in some variations according to my score and my personality. However, the plan above is a good outline so that you work on it to add your own personal style on top of it. Give it a try and keep us posted. [/QUOTE]
