I actually got it twice on my first day of playing. I had to use buy-ins of course, but it was worth it. The mode is truly awesome. I don't like how it just 'stops' at the end, but it's still a great mode to get to; one of my all time favorites. |

Getting to BBB w/o buy-ins is pretty impressive on a 3 ball game! It'll be a good goal of mine to have and should give me something to want to achieve every time I play the game, so it doesn't get too boring over time. |

yah, i racked up a few modes durring the mb's.
ended with 414m.
1st good run at the wizard mode and i was pretty tired from hand hammering my drop target bracket back into shape. It was bent up pretty bad when i got the machine.

Well, I'm a bit surprised it happened so fast, but I finally had a great 3 ball game (I think I earned a few extra balls along the way), and made it to BBB without any buy-ins.
Final score was 685 something, and was the GC for tha machine. WOOT!
Not bad for owning the game 3 days and logging less than 30 games on the machine.
Fortunately, the game is still a ton of fun, and even though I think I've seen it all already, it doesn't bore me at all, since the theme is just so darn good, and stuff is satisfying to get to. |

I just got Big Bang after about my 10th game.
I was having a great first ball and was concentrating on a multiball when I looked up everything was blinking and the display said something like two balls in play x2.
I started it without even realizing it!
It was pretty cool though.
I ended up just shy of 1.1B.

Haha, how could you do that? It's pretty obvious when all the lights go out, the music changes completely, and only one lamp is lit: the Big Bang light.
Or maybe you accidentally hit that switch just a second after it was lit. I only got to Big Bang 3 times so far, with 5 balls and no buy-ins. It's still a good challenge for me. I don't like if the game is too deep and you never get to the wizard mode anyway. BBB is just right for me: difficult enough to be rare, but easy enough to actually reach it once in a while. |

I know. That's the weird part.
I'm thinking I must have qualified it while I was playing multiball and then quickly hit the target. That's the only thing I can think of.
I'll have to pay more attention next time.
