ColecoDan Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 38850 Sucks that they don't let you change difficulty so that you can get used to the timing on the high rounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jblenkle Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 Hmmm...this brings up an interesting question...as there are currently three players who have not submitted a score will all three of them be eliminated at the end of this round? I urge some people who did not originally sign up to jump in with any kind of score...we need more players.

cparsley Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 Sorry if I miss anyone, but with a little more than two hours left... I got it as.. jblenkle (51,800) ColecoDan (38,850) patbb (34,800) cparsley (28,600) ed1475 (28,400) JacobZu7zu7 (24,850) skosh (24,350) roadrunner (21,800) Ikrananka (15,850) Remember, whoever wins here defends the Coleco's honor... the Atari 2600 still has time on it's game (HERO) and the INTV has time on it's first game (Night Stalker)....

Ikrananka Posted January 8, 2012 Author Share Posted January 8, 2012 Great round everyone and thanks for playing. Looks like I'm out of the tournament already and I'm not surprised Great score Joe, congratulations - any tips you can give? Looking at the past CV HSC high score and the Twin Galaxies high score I am blown away by how good those players must have been at this game. They must also have an awful lot of patience due to the repetative nature of the game. I'm assuming the game quickly reaches a maximum difficulty level which once mastered enables very high scores to be achieved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
