[QUOTE="Zaphod77, post: 136399, member: 2101"] And yet more info. 1) the instructions say quick multiball can only be activated three times per game. This is false... However, once quick multiball has been activated the third time, the light quick multiball light will never light again at the tornado target. the maximum number of quick multiballs per game is much bigger. A perfect game will collect three from the tornado target, and two from each of the nine possible trips through the cellar, for 21 sessions of quick multiball. 2) the instructions say there is a max of six extra balls per game. It's NOT KIDDING. Once you collect six extra balls, no more will light for the rest of the game. This has a few strategy implications. One is that you can only go through the cellar a maximum of nine times, since you can only play nine balls total and go through it once per ball. you will get two extra balls from the skyway, one from points, and one from the fifth lock, which leaves two collectible from the super cellar. With this in mind, do not worry too much about clearing the cellar, since it is NOT an unlimited source of extra balls after all. Yes the 2 million bonus is nice to collect on every ball, but since there's no limit to the number of times you can start normal multiball, and you get 1 million for release, and 2 million for your first million plus, which same as the million from the cellar and your 2 million bonus, it's a lot more important to learn that side ramp. and if you fail to collect an extra ball from the cellar... you can try for it again next time through. Once you light the special for multiball number 3, it never gets any harder to start multiball. [/QUOTE]
