Had a long day, this was a nice way to relax. I don't think I have ever once hit a scorpion, but I am getting better at zonking the fleas (They really look like turtles though). Some folks on the twin galaxies board are in the millions for points, the best has 5 million. I had a hard time just getting to 70k.

Try using a 2600 trackball. It's not perfect since the game isn't programmed to recognize it, but I've found it still works better than a stick. I also sometimes use a Genesis controller.

I've been using a gamepad. I'd love to use a trackball at some point. Maybe some day down the road I will get one : ) I still have one more day to try and catch your score, but I doubt I will, and by then you will probably have passed the 100k mark.

You guys are just lucky my mother didn't want to play. He's better at Centipede than anyone I've ever seen in my entire life. And trust me; there's no bigger shot to your manhood than getting beat by your mother at a video game in front of your friends.

That's a hell of a great score and I sure wish it would've made the deadline. :( I'd love to count it anyways but it wouldn't be fair to all the others.

The post was made at 10:58 MT. That's 12:58 ET, and the contest was supposed to and at 1:00 ET. Am I missing something?

Now this extremely strange. I swear that when I looked at your post it said 1:38am. Now I look at it and it say 12:58am! I'm befuddled. And I assure you I was fully awake and wearing my glasses.

Well, in that case it does count. So I will now make the correct calculations.
