OR Play a game that you missed this season and post a score that is worthy of a Top 10 finish. You will get +10 Bonus points! You may only do this 1 Time! I like this idea of Replay to improve your previous score. Was this the first time this has ever been done in HSC history? In the future, it could be expanded on. Something like (all points are cumulative) +10 if you were in the bottom half of all players, and scored in the top half. (To get people to strive to be at least average players in the HSC) +5 If you can improve from outside the Top10, to into Top10 +3 If you can improve from outside the Top3, to into Top3 (podium) +10 if you can improve from outside the Top3, to the top position for the season. The cumulative bonuses shouldn’t affect placing very much, because people who score in the bottom half are usually down 16+ points for a round (they could score +28, but only if they score 1st Place). All the other cumulative points are a bonus that is mostly outside half the scoring you previously received in the round) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 'Replay' bonus is for Weekly games only.... not the weekly BONUS game. Bumper bash was a Bonus Game not a Regular Weekly Game.... BUT Since your score is so amazing, I will let this slide for you only. So it counts. Please do not 'Replay' a Bonus.

Jasonhrb Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 (edited) Well this is a fun little game. Not much to look at, but a lot of fun to play with. The dynamic of needing to fix ropes to progress is a really interesting one, and would probably have been pretty novel at the time. I can't say I've ever played the arcade game (which can sometimes help with 2600 conversions ), but taken on it's own merits, I really like this one. As for play and replay, I can't belive I did this, but I played river patrol again. Like, voluntarily. . . .with nobody holding a gun to my head (which was pretty much the criteria I thought would be needed for me to play that steaming pile of poo of a game again). My logic was that I'd spent a fair bit of time on all the games I actually liked, so I'd need to play something I didn't take to if I wanted an improved score quickly. And it worked, I got the imporvemnt I needed on my third game, which was three more games of River Patrol than I would actually want to play. I could have got a better score easily enough with a bit more care, but that would have meant playing River Patrol for longer which was an outcome I was keen to avoid 🤣 Anyway, that's enough from me, here are some scores.

fakecortex Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 First time with this one, don’t think I’ve played the arcade version. Was scoring below 100 on my first handful of goes, but I rather liked figuring out the controls on my own. Now time to rtfm and see what’s what.
