Fireworks: A question of honor? lol

So, even if you never get over 240,000 and finish second, you can still get fireworks magic for winning 10 times? It doesn't really matter, because I've never gotten first (best was third) and I've never gotten 240,000 (best was 222,000), but still something to keep in mind.

Interestingly enough, one of my mules never got over 240,000 and didn't win and got fireworks magic. I don't know how many times the mule won and went over 240,000 but I am 100% certain the mule came in first every time I played due the sandbagging issue.

FWIW, I don't mind people who stop at 240,000. I often try to stop at 240,000 too. Sometimes I get 1300 credits and sometimes I get 675. It's still a nice amount of credits.

I'm sorry that so many of you think it's unfair to stop at 240,000. If I am having a good game, I go as high as I can. If I'm having an off game, I stop as close to 240,000 as I can. It's kind of like a secondary challenge to me. I also like the credits. I'm often playing for my 7 year old, and he needs all the help that he can get getting credits.

I don't so much think it's unfair, and I certainly don't blame anyone - I do it too! - I just think the whole idea of the way the score system is setup is daffy. One shouldn't have to pull back to get the best reward. Especially the way VMK itemizes out the credits, it's obvious that the 1st place person is docked 1000 credits! Just cwazy!
