[QUOTE="vikingerik, post: 216262, member: 3745"] switch3flip, yes that method works too, but I'd rather avoid any on-the-fly shots and nudges when a safe perfectly railroaded method is available. That's the part I didn't know, thanks. You're looking at it the wrong way round. The right gauge is that I have a higher score relative to the bonus. Because I've had more EBs to drain and collect the bonus more times, of course. I don't have much here. Of course it depends on how reliably you can grind the Super Payday wheel for more EBs. I've just been going towards Super Payday when low on EBs (2 or less), or collecting souvenirs when stocked at 3-4. I don't really know if that's optimal but it feels good enough. I do use the souvenir shots to light the next city. I do get a wheel or more per ball, but the distribution is clumped at Super Payday, so sometimes the Hold Bonus is wasted and I don't constantly have it every ball. I've been going for Bonus X ahead of both cities and souvenirs, which seems to work fine as it's fairly low risk. Also, the Nashville and Kansas City multiballs are good times to pick up bonus X if you need some. It's just gaining a long-term average of more than one repeatable extra ball per drain. That good enough? We could talk about variance and the 4 EB limit that could see enough clumped drains to irrevocably lose a ball (advance to ball 2), but that practically never comes into play for me. [/QUOTE]
