[QUOTE="shutyertrap, post: 245366, member: 134"] I admit it, I'm struggling. The only wizard I've managed is the World Series. I'll get the double jackpot eventually, probably through random dumb luck. My question is, anybody got any tips on the other 3? 4-Way Combo: This one is seriously killing me. Just getting the right inlane and shooting the left orbit to start it is a royal pain. At least that part I've managed to do, it's the 3 shot that I haven't figured how a way to get. From the orbit, the ball is screaming toward the flipper. If you just raise the flipper, the ball will bounce into the mode hole. If you let it dead bounce, it'll go into the left outlane or inlane, either of which kills the combo. I've tried nudging as it approaches the flipper, but then it usually bounces and hits a switch somewhere. All that leaves is a live catch, which doesn't seem very combo like at all, and I'm not able to do at will. Anyone figured this out yet? All Stars: collecting 9 in the limited time given seems to mean you can't miss a single shot. I'm not all that hot at hitting those right and left center ramps, but hitting the mode hole takes to long to get all 9. Is this a case of me just having to get really good at hitting those ramps alternating, and not hitting the glove at all during that? 43 Runs: this seemingly should be easy, but I've never gotten more than 35. And that was no small miracle. Who's got the answer for this one? I don't mind these wizards goals, as they are frustrating but don't seem to count on dumb luck or pulling off something you'd never actually do in a real game. I do mind the timer aspect of the All Stars, though it's nowhere near as bad as the goal in POTO that seems damn near impossible. Still, usually when I set my mind to knocking off these things, it'll take me a few hours and I'll have 'em. Instead I've made next to no progress on this table. Looking to see if I'm alone in this struggle or not. [/QUOTE]
