roadrunner Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 What skill level? Beginner, Arcade, or Expert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JellE Posted October 25, 2009 Author Share Posted October 25, 2009 Sorry... always start on the default level...which I am assuming is beginner. I don't know anything about this game. Start on beginner... or if you want to start on a higher level, feel free to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+therealbountybob Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 I think we should play on 'arcade' level as per previous HSC goes... how about those outside the overall top-ten standings can play on beginner if they choose to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaPa Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 (edited) Contest ends at 11:30 pm ET on Friday, November 6, 2009. Tapper Tapper was released in the UK by US Gold in 1985.<br/><br/> The link points to Rubber ball game And Tapper from Atarimania has different menu screen (see below) than on the screens posted here, hopefully not changed scoring?

Oops....fixed....and looks like folks are using the Sega 1984 version instead..so use that one instead. Link will be updated toreflect this.

+therealbountybob Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 (edited) Great game! 48,800 (Round 7) Arcade Yes seems Atarimania have both links going to the UK version which doesn't have all the different drinking establishments. A good ATR version is on atari.pl here the one called v4 is the original, or try the xex version on Fandal's site here Just for interest here's the final table from Tapper back in HSC Season 4... remember them good ole days poobah poobah 387,800 8 Jimmy Lee 200,275 6 devwebcl 141,475 4 goochman 80,750 2 _Fandal_ 59,800 1 jdh 31,300 1 mimo 18,600 Edited October 27, 2009 by therealbountybob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+therealbountybob Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 (edited) Hmmm, there's a problem with playing this game competively... the worse you do the more points you get... not enough bonus for completing a level. Take my goes below; I got 68K on a go where I was stuck on level 7 and 28K on a good go where I got to level 10 So how about we post our levels as well as scores and do the table on level reached Any other ideas Edited October 27, 2009 by therealbountybob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goochman Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 TRBB - That is the funny thing on this game - best way to score is work the early levels since ultimately it gets to a speed you cant beat. I dont think level counting should weigh much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont think level counting should weigh much. Are you're saying each level gets progressively harder until it gets to a point where you need to clear it to survive? I just assumed you could play a level forever without really trying to beat it, which seemed a bit pointless... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just assumed you could play a level forever without really trying to beat it, which seemed a bit pointless... at the higher levels you cant do this - the lower levels yes I still don't think this is any good to play for score... I think you can survive forever on most levels without a sweat, the only way you are out is when you try and clear the level... 98,075 (arcade). Did it stay on level 10 or was that my imagination... Expert just starts you on level 6.. oh well I suppose a week off will encourage me to do some programming Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
