[QUOTE="Advalle, post: 35074, member: 872"] I really don't know about that, certainly on iOS the nudging is no piece of cake since you have to extend your index finger to the top of the screen. Also Squid, for a long time you had been leading me on the Leader boards by a few spots with a 3+Billion score, but both of us always competing for that Monthly top spot (- that is if your are the same ||SQUID|| on the leaderboards). So...I didn’t come from nowhere (my score name is “arturodelvalle”). I look forward to try a PS3 and see if there’s a difference, we should ask the fellows on the board that own both. Cheers. I don’t know anything about hacking guys, just plain RBION playing, that is the only table I play even though I do own the other ones, I really liked no good gofers and taxi is kind of fun with that ole music, however RBION for some reason is the one for me. As for the whole topic about Asia, that is an advice that I give you guys if you want to go the distance. My point is avoid the Left bumpers at all costs. Sure it is a blast, and together with Australia, Asia is a very easy continent, but when you are on your last balls after many hours of game you will NOT want to risk making a mistake in Asia and going on the Upper Left Loop, below the ramp which will drop your ball on the Left bumpers, and when that happens you have absolutely lost control of your ball. After you have accumulated your first billion of points it is time to start playing very conservatively, and that is: NO ASIA unless you stack it with a multi-ball Continent mode which are plentiful, because you don’t want to lose control on the left bumpers in case of a mistake. In the very beginning of the game I will throw balls at Asia right away because I am not risking points, but after the game gets serious (1+Billion game) I will not risk it. Sure you lose a little bit of the fun of the game, but that fun is replaced by the massive point accumulation on Continent Tours. This brings me to the topic of stacking upon stacking. Stacking is the key here to accelerate the pace of the game, if you go by continents one by one it will take you soooo long to accumulate points. The only time I invest all my attention and a little more time to every single continent is on the first TOUR because is the one that give you a 5-10 second ball save on your multi-ball modes (This was a suggestion by pinball wizard Keith Elwyn), but that’s it. After around 2-3 tours I start playing more with an interest to only accumulate letters from Australia and Asia with a Multi-ball Continet stacked on it in order to score hopefully those two letters. Then I forget about the rest of the continents, just make them circulate as fast as possible. Also after a while you might even want to start dropping that second ball on any given Multi-ball Continent mode in order to Move forward as quickly as you can. And Don’t drain your main ball. You will need at least 1-3 Tours per ball since there are around 10 balls on each game after all extra balls, so that will put you in shape. Touring is the key to big points. Of course if you star messing with tombs, left bumpers, Super jack pots (with only one ball on the field which in this case inevitably will lead to bumpers) you are always risking that possibility of a drain, and a drain even of an extra ball will have a repercussion with your final score. To conclude this long post and to change topic, I would like to make note that there’s 8 persons above me on the leader boards, I don’t know what kind of device they use since that is not available to see from my Ipad ( we don’t get to see what devices everyone has), but clearly there are 8 more persons that even doubled my score. Is that hacking? There is a member of this forum that goes by the name of “go for the wall” he is the 1st place in All time on RBION, lets ask him to bring some light into the topic and ask if there is any thing strange about this. Peace to all of you, pinball friends. And keep playing RBION, it’s the best table yet, can’t wait for the Twilight Zone. [/QUOTE]
