Bonanza Eclipse 1220 - Bejeweled Twist

6.66, the milestone of the beast
====================================
Before I finally "broke the glass ceiling" and managed to get my former PB of 1159, it was clear that I had improved a lot in the meantime, yet just couldn't finish my good runs properly because I was getting nervous.
Got a new PB of 1164 not too long after I got back into Bonanza (and just one hour before I got my Firestorm PB of 97, which is funny because 1164 is exactly 97% of 1200). From that moment 1200 felt much more doable so I thought I would just keep my new PBs for myself until I reached my goal.
Just a few weeks after that my PB was already in the 1180s and I was really hyped, but that's where the struggle came back, quite inevitably. However it's only been about 3½ months since then, while beating 1143 alone took me over 7 months, so it was still not nearly as bad.
Also I find it kinda funny that from 1159 I would always improve by 5 or 6, but now I go straight from 1198 to 1220 ^^
Some stats:
1220+: 1
1210+: 1
1200+: 1
1190+: 4
1180+: 9
1170+: 22
1160+: 35
1150+: 60 (59 recorded)
1160 is the lowest 1100+ score for which I still do not have a recorded run

You’ve taken this game to a whole new level.
Congrats!

[@elpolog.7163]

Thank you ^^
Though I'd say it's just a matter of how far you want to push

[@Tegarcs142]

This is a new contender. 🎉

Insane RNG with the setups, and no mistakes. Possibly the best 3 minutes I have ever seen in this game

[@elpolog.7163]

Actually I made a mistake early in the game that ruined a setup (0:24) and I also could have attempted to make one more match before the final detonation (or even use the Lightning to detonate the Nova using a cascade)
But yeah besides that it was a perfect run

[@brianloger8243]

WOW. That is some record right there. Congratulations!!
