PressureCooker2600 Posted October 15, 2007 Author Share Posted October 15, 2007 I figured I'd start the poll early to give everyone a chance to check in and vote. I'll do it this way every week. Polls close on Thursday at 8-9 p.m. CT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Punisher5.0 Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 I just pinned that thread for you guys. I'll continue to pin the SMS HSC threads but there will only be one NES HSC thread pinned at a time to cut down on the clutter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PressureCooker2600 Posted October 17, 2007 Author Share Posted October 17, 2007 Looks like Columns is gonna take this one. At least I'm better at Columns than I am at Tetris. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NintendoDieScreaming Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 I've been preparing a little for Columns, and I've realized I really suck. I got about 655,550... I have a feeling I'm not gonna do too hot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PressureCooker2600 Posted October 18, 2007 Author Share Posted October 18, 2007 From the back of the box: Drift back to ancient Phoenicia and challenge yourself with Columns, a game favored by ancient merchants. Forget the passage of time and tickle your mind with this brilliant game of strategy and skill. Normal Difficulty, starting on Level 0......you can choose whatever block scheme you like. Best tips will get +2 points and if you meet the challenge, get +5 points. Challenge: ??? I'll let you all decide a good enough and hard enough challenge. Overall standings as of now: 1. PressureCooker2600 +16 2. NintendoDieScreaming +10 3. Blackjack +9 4. 8th lutz +8 5. LarcenTyler +7 6. user42 +6 7. Artlover +5 Let's begin. Games end Thursday at 8-9 p.m. CT.

PressureCooker2600 Posted October 18, 2007 Author Share Posted October 18, 2007 24530 And I have a challenge. On Flash mode, whomever gets the fastest completion time will win the challenge and get +5 extra points. We'll start at six lines high.

Blackjack Posted October 18, 2007 Share Posted October 18, 2007 (edited) I'm pretty decent at this one, played it a lot on genesis and in Mame. Although at the level I ended at, I can't see improving my score too much as it's so fast, the last couple minutes of play were pretty much luck.... maybe I'll try to win the challenge mode. 39,720 And do you know of an sms emu that takes screenshots?

Blackjack Posted October 18, 2007 Share Posted October 18, 2007 You're right... Freeze sms does, I just couldn't find it (it's F12) Here's a bonus flash entry (that's a tough game!) 8min 32sec Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PressureCooker2600 Posted October 18, 2007 Author Share Posted October 18, 2007 My fastest thus far has been 54 seconds. I must have been lucky because all my other tries have been in the 5 minute range. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lauren Tyler Posted October 18, 2007 Share Posted October 18, 2007 40,500 I love this game. I still remember a couple years ago I got this boxed for my Genesis, and every time I boot it up, I always get hooked. A simply but effective time killer!

PressureCooker2600 Posted October 18, 2007 Author Share Posted October 18, 2007 26910 I'm afraid I won't get any higher than that because it gets too damn fast for me to think and manuever. At least I'm better at this than Tetris. I just plain suck at that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
