RESETTING
THE

The
challenge

exceeding
the
High
Score

setting or a higher score by another
player)
is
the
goal of
many
pinball
game
players.
To
keep a pinball game challenging requires a
method
of
resetting
the
High
Score value
for
those occasions
when a skilled player registers a truly
excellent
score. Other
players
note
this
score
and may decide
not to play simply because their
skill is
not
adequate
to
exceed
an
extremely
high
score.

Whirlwind,
in
fact,
three
methods
of
resetting
the
High Score
values
are available. The simplest
method
involves
