Hey there, great vid Bowen! But, can anyone tell me why locking the 2nd ball via the swamp is not a good idea? I think it’s the easiest way of locking a ball.. just softly plunge… did I miss something?
Simple: points. Plunging the Thing hole gives the Skill Shot points (up to 5 million) and accomplishes the same goal of locking the ball. Locking through the swamp gives almost no points.
During MB, hits to the bookcase increase the base jackpot value. Is this value carried through the MB underway? the ball? the whole game? is this a software setting? Thanks.

Well… that makes sense.
Thanks Bowen, keep up the good work & greetings from Germany!

The jackpot value is carried over until a multiplied jackpot is achieved. The maximum value is 25 million.
