Wow, a thread celebrating ones self. That's new...

[Zain]

Actually, this is to let people know It's broken, and I want a challenge...

[Beirut]

You want a challenge...

Play Asteroids.

[Zain]

I've tried Asteroids, and I suck! lol, congrats on being the champion of that! Um... just so you guys know, this isn't a self praising thread. It's simply a thread designed to give me some competition in this game.

Play Asteroids.

I've spent a good many hours on old-school asteroids. I remember with shock the first time the score turned over and instead of 100,000 I was suddenly back to zero. Thus my highest ever scores were never recorded by the game, but I think I maxed out at 114,000. What challenge level would I be trying to beat if I ever stumble across the game again, might I ask?

(amazing how entertaining old games can be, especially at times when you have an old computer and they're all you can run!)

ed: just followed the link beneath your avatar, and there's no way I'm coming anywhere near that score. *homage to the king*

Congratulations! :)

ps. there's an older arcarde thread specific to the topic; you may want to look for it and give it a bump. :P

I might've been a transitional champion at that one once. I found that I got too nervous when playing and my fingers would freeze up. I also found that I could go faster if I could just stop saying the current letter with the voice in my head. I kept screwing up at that. Is this the technique you use?

At first I was saying them in my head and getting a score near 120 every time. But then I tried to quiet my mind, and think of something else while I typed. That got me around 128. Then I started to type by the rythym of music, and that was the key. I actually played it to the song called "Remedy" by Seether. I looked down, my score was 132 with 2 seconds left, so my fingers flew and I busted out 5 more letters in 2 seconds. It was awesome. I've been trying to break that record and the closest I've come to was about 131. So, I guess that was a one time only kind of thing. Try and beat me, if you dare !!! LoL

I got 1,38, but deleted that highscore a while ago.

Why did you do that? And how do you delete scores, somehow I catch myself not believing your 138 story.

Submit.

[Big_John]

you want to talk about shattering records? check out the arkanoid champ..


seriously, someone delete it, it's embarassing...

[Monarch]

I had a go, I cant touch type, well only certain words, so I got around 70-80, cant remember the exact score.

I'm best at bowling, only a few points off the record there. But it's Quientus' record, and he holds like a thousand records lol. So if I beat it, he'd probably just get it back easily lol.

[Zain]

Well, this sucks. Skokamatth is definently the master at the game I once reigned in. I'm not gonna be able to beat 142.

I just played that game about 40 times, and nothing over 135. Congrats Skomatth.
