Looks like Songbird is out of stock on Wormhole.   Anyone in the Dallas, TX to Central, TX got a copy I can come over and play?

You are welcome to come over to my house, but Lubbock is a little far.

Hmmm... a five hour drive.    Not completely writing this off.

8-11 .. first try 

[jeremiahjt]

For White Men Can't Jump, we start a tournament, right? You are given three choices to start with; $250, $350, and $500. Does it matter which one we choose?

[masematte]

[jeremiahjt]

Well, until we get clarification, I will put my score from the $250 game.  I won that game 21 to 10.  For Wormhole 2000, I got 25,480.

 

Edit: I played the versus mode also and won 22 to 16, but no picture as the score disappeared too fast.

Additional score

[jeremiahjt]

Okay, I played another versus match. Assuming we keep the skill level at 1 1/2, my new score is 21 to 2. I was ready for the picture this time.

 

I also beat the tournament mode today for I think the first time.

White Men Can't Jump: 22 -14

Wormhole : 9500

[doctorclu]

Got 6180 on my first few attempts at Wormhole 2000 which I just got in today.

 

More later.

[Rick Dangerous]

For WMCJ: Versus Match.  Highest score you can muster. 

 

Bonus point for posting a Tournament mode score.  Extra bonus point for beating Tournament mode.

Woo-hoo! Although good luck getting a picture of that trophy. It disappears pretty quick.

So going to state the obvious and say for those hoping for a Gyruss on the Jaguar, Wormhole is not that.

 

Of course it has other interesting additions to it that make it different.

I think I haven't felt this much excitement and then reaction to playing a game since "Laser Blast" by Activision for the 2600.

At least this time I got the game.   Laser Blast I put on layaway but couldn't scrape together the money to pay it off when I was a kid.

 

Latest score 19,300.

Wormhole 99,600

[doctorclu]

Hey, when you calculate the score from this round, I have played previous rounds for the participation points.

 

Played for the two points of round 1.

And played for the two points of round 2. 

 

Four points, but every point helps.

22:20, finally managed to win
