Quick high score story!
About a year ago I scored 15 billion on
AFM and told my 2 boys as they used to play the game a lot, back in 2011 when I had my first one.
As they were stuck on their xbox's, never playing pinball, I said to them that they would never beat it. Haven't played it much since and they didn't play it at all.
Fast forward to a few weeks ago. My youngest started playing FT ( he ignores modern Sterns ) and then he moved onto
AFM. Bit of a shock to see him playing again. Taught him to nudge.
Yesterday, I heard shouting and came in to see he was nearly at RTU! He then got to RTU, and was 2 shots away from completion. Finished with 20 billion. I was very happy for him and totally shocked!
About 20 mins later he said, do you remember when you said we would never beat your score? Yes, I remember. Do you also remember that you said you would give us £100 if we beat your score?
Oh dear
I vaguely remember saying it, as they had never got higher than 6 billion; I just wanted them to get off their xbox's so was offering a cash incentive; they no longer played; and I thought my score was as safe as houses
So, he got 20 billion and I had to hand over £100
I guess I need to be more careful in the future as all my pinball monies could disappear
There is also a £50 prize that I also offered for getting over half a billion on FT. I think that is safe........
for hosting a brill afternoon and it was nice to put some faces to people on this forum along with some great forum members I already know.
That’s my excuse and I’m sticking to it.
