  • Wouldn't it be hilarious if I got a 14 seed in the tournament, to match up with him (by chance of course), and then knocked him out of the playoffs again.  First round at that.



    I wonder what the odds would be.
  • Some seriously nutso scores on the leaderboard here. I'm going to bow out of this week now and take a break so I can enjoy some of my other games before getting another participation (probably) in Ice Hockey, and then give it my all on Life Force. If anything I plan on doing my best to take the shmup award, and hooopefully make it into the finals (there are finals, right?).



    For now, I'll hang my hat with my 98k happy knowing that I found a game that I actually really like! Never played before this week, but Marble Madness is now a game that I'll suggest to anyone who asks!

    By crown, you mean that third place icon right?  
  • Lol!

    (...or I audibly laughed when I saw this for folks who do not like lol).



    I love NOT LAST and LAST on the scoreboards.

    Hope it stays all year!

    I won the week the last time it was played,even if only because Tom's score was unofficial. However....I'm bringing my AAA game that week.

    As long as it's not by bertsampson  

    Seriously all I heard about last year was Brock Landers and Bert and undefeatable... well both of them haven't done seemed robotic to me yet.



    Also, your username in your picture doesn't say skinny   who's "42 foor tapewoRm" ???  



    bertsampson is good. 



    how many times did sandafloor win last year? 

     

    11



    If only someone had painstakingly compiled that information...

  • This game can suck a dick. Stupid compulsion to add it to backloggery list

    At least it's short. What's cheap as hell is that most of the courses have some ridiculous obsticle at the very end,like the ice bowl,or the hammers,and of course the cluster F at the end of the ultimate race.



    You can do it man,you're a great gamer! 



     
  • Made it an inch from the end. Got no wands and f'd by the hammers on that run. Are they both random?



    The game is short but it gives me carpal tunnel in like 30 seconds

    165,130

    Ha! I fucking knew it!

    You should change your name to Rock Landers!
  • It feels like I have to anticipate the input to make the turns in order to compensate the game gravity.

    I will give it a few more tries now that I understood that. Perhaps I might even do terribly at this one.

    I remember renting Life Force several times as a kid, but I always ended up going back to Contra. For whatever reason, when it comes to shooters, I seem to do a lot better at the run and gun style.

  • Finally had my first no-death run. No wands. Went into Ultimate with 99 and scored about 172,500. Not gonna post the pic just yet out of laziness, because I think I can do better once I start exclusively practicing Ultimate Race, and because it doesn't bump me up the scoreboard at all anyways (right now).



    This is a good hurdle to get over

    Better than I thought I would do!

  • I stayed up late last night teaching myself how to complete the last section all in one go as soon as it starts. I can do it fairly regularly now, and that saves a lot of time on the last stage. I should be able to get over 170k as soon as I get there with 99 seconds and I don't choke.

    Remeber that thing you said about "Is everyone and their kid brother going to get over 170k"... Well I'm starting to think 170k is going to be the standard just for getting top 8 it seems

    I'm pretty convinced that this is the case. Gonna be some stiff competition!
