Hope you get the patch James! We need more members in the club. Btw, you only need to score 70 to get the high score.

Only 70? Pffft, kids stuff! I'm sure as I get 20 for the patch I'll be able to zoom right to 70!! Hahah.

Haha! Yeah I think @TrekMD HS score is safe. This should immediately get added to the PlusCarts HS table.

UPDATE!! PATCH ACHIEVED!!

 

After many attempts yesterday I was able to finally get the Astronomer patch with 22 points! I switched from the paddle controller to the joystick and increased my score by quite a bit due to the single click precision of the movement. Although there was some time lost in being not able to whip around to the next star each round with the paddle, it was more than made up for in being able to keep the star in the precise beam of the telescope with the joystick.

 

DIRECT VIDEO LINK TO TIME OF WIN @ 3:13:14
