[QUOTE="relaxation, post: 230882, member: 5759"] It turns out Jack lies in multiple places, big surprise. [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iz2KEsMeVD0]short video example[/url] [url=http://i.imgur.com/aaWGGuK.png]spreadsheet[/url] So in the above spreadsheet, the left example shows a brand spanking new game and I did 1 cashier shot and drained, the right example is what happened in the video: 3 Keno Arrow awards for a PC and Maxed Vortex then a cashier shot. So if you read the second example, the DMD says 82M but it should have been 118M.. so you may ask where's my 36M? hold on, the score on the display actually goes up 107M.. so you're still missing 11M. Forgot to validate the score display on the brand new game and didn't think to check if what the bonus was is actually what you get going into the next ball. [i]I'll edit in my 30bn game with the actual cashiers values, to the best of my ability, and see how the scoring stacked up. boy do I wish someone would install an electromagnet into jack*bots hit me area, activated by the cheat button of course.[/i] [b][url=http://i.imgur.com/8Nol350.png]30bn game[/url], [url=http://i.imgur.com/aVA5hUv.png]visual aid[/url][/b] it's not my highest card value game either, one game I got started with the +10 Card slot award and ended at 24 Poker cards.

[i]a 263.8 cashier award, my personal highest, was actually 292.8M in points, and according to the bonus screen should've been 299.8M: 24Pcard 5HMe 50VM 12.9DW. one before that was 259.8, was 284.8M in points, bonus calc would be 295.8M: 24Pcard 5HMe 48VM 12.9DW.
