Bejeweled 3 Lightning - 8.1 Million with x16 [720p60]
1,200[7 July 2013] Frequently asked: The Time Gems are 90% Luck based after x9, so in essence, this game was in a way "lucky" to reach x16
First time (and remains the only time as of 2015) I managed to reach the holy temple of x16 on Lightning Mode (that's 20,000 points per move).
I have a feeling these one-move-boards are Lightning Mode's way of forcing a game-over on you (unlike Ice Storm's 7:30 gametime limit), just incase the time-gems got a bit too generous...
Again, no dual-hypercube or supernova gem this game... I am still of the impression that if you get any of those in a game you're going to fail well before you get a chance to reach x11. And that's experience talking.
And yes, my habit of sleeping through x1 is still here.
498 Speed Chains at the end. To include the 2 moves at the start that was needed to kick it off - i guess that makes this game a perfect 500-move game. Oooooooooooooooo...
Enjoy!
If anyone has any videos of either making x14 or beyond, or a score of 6 Million and higher, I'd be interested in seeing!
