Tantôt capé à 5 par partie, tantôt 2 par partie, tantôt un stock max de 2 par bille, tantôt 5 par partie et aussi la contrainte d'un stock de 2 max. Du coup, les autres ne sont pas comptées (comme ici, sur Whirlwind)... On n'y comprend plus rien !
Vous ne pouvez pas faire n'importe quoi avec une donnée aussi importante, les Extraballs sont la clé des bonnes parties!

Whirlwind game logic: If the Extra Ball limit is reached BEFORE lighting another at the Super Cellar Door (even if EB's are turned off), it will be worth nothing. It doesn't matter what the limit is set at -- it WILL do that on every single Whirlwind you'll find.

From this video, I can likely guess you got your Extra Balls through the following:
8 Skyway Tolls
Replay
Super Cellar Door
Mega Door
50 Skyway Tolls

Whirlwind's Cellar logic is dictated on Adjustment 43. Amazingly, you can set Cellar Specials/EB's from 0 to a maximum of 99. Default is set to 2. I've seen Whirlwind games in tournament play where directors either failed to account for that, or intended for players to go through all 7 Super Cellar values for the Mega Door Bonus. One could theoretically cap to 9 Extra Balls by strictly playing the Super Cellar and still get valueless Extra Balls, if Adjustment 43 is set greater than 9 (or 5, accounting for Super AND Mega).

Both the Super Cellar and Mega Door EB's are missable after draining, without claiming them.

Regardless, I agree that the Replays and Specials should be relegated elsewhere.
