I scored 15,000 on a Grand Lizard as the first player up in an Amazing Race tournament. Proceeded to watch ~10 people after me plunge, flip once, and get to drain because they beat my score. I will have to see if the exact score is still around somewhere.

I ‘managed’ a score of 700,000 odd on Metallica in one tournament here in Sydney. Unfortunately (or fortunately) I can’t find the scoring evidence though.
Forgot about this thread… I had about 630K or so on Avengers in the Circuit Final this year.

I love that 30 million points is a walk-off
Q: "Which house did you play as?"
A: “House Ball”

To be fair, it was the LE. I think 30M would have won most games on it at that tournament. 
I had about 10,000 on CV, all on ball 3. I had 0 after two balls, but this was at Pinball Olympics where it was set up as a Thunder Tilt game. The two ramp targets were wired to the Tilt, and I didn’t learn my lesson after ball 1. Obviously this doesn’t count, but it still made me sad.

Yesterday I put up 6500 in 5 balls of Card Whiz, which included a 3000 point outlane drain. 
I was player 1 and had a 500 point lead after my ball 5

I was eliminated from the PPO with 4,700 on Dialed In.
I was not happy, as you can imagine.

A mate of mine recently got 870,000 on Ghostbusters on a three-ball game. He’s a good player, too.
Username checks out.

I think in some ways it might be easier for a skilled player to achieve a truly awful score. Try for three super skillshots, brick them, insta-drain and you’ll lose to a four year old that put a regular skillshot through the pop bumpers.
It takes a lot of practice to suck as bad as I do is what I’m trying to say.
Edit: I just realized like three of you said the same thing, but screw it.
