@mvnla2 – There is a last chance sign in Android, pretty glaring once I knew what to look for.
But it wasn’t one just last chance. If I used a character to obliterate stuff and carefully avoided winning, it kept giving me more and more last chances. So I guess one new strategy to get a high score would be to learn how NOT to win, and have lots of extra characters. There is nothing in the score that indicates how many characters are used to get that score.
Maybe with all of these roundabout ways to come up with a top score, we shouldn’t award “top score” unless that person isn’t known top shooter or they explain their strategy and someone with excellent AB skills can replicate it (and at least comes close). That would enable everybody to learn how to do better in the game. [As in science – you have to get results which can be reproduced by other scientists, or you don’t credit for it.]

@tobyv – I’m on your side. I object to anything that allows people with more money to do better on the boards. On the other hand, I’m afraid that is like life. Damn. One thing though, I always have a bunch of extra spare characters I don’t care about, and I could use some to try this out.

This reminded me of the Monty Python Spanish Inquisition Skit. …

Inquisition: Now, old lady — you have one last chance. Confess the heinous sin of heresy, reject the works of the ungodly — *two* last chances. And you shall be free — *three* last chances. You have three last chances, the nature of which I have divulged in my previous utterance.
