Default I am awarding good scores. >>   Show Printable Version  Show Printable Version   Email this Page  Email this Page  

I am looking deeply into the arcade scores from now on and anything that looks like a great score, I will award accordingly.

The amount of the award depends on the magnitude of the score and the persistance that the individual applied to get there. Some games are way harder than others and some take longer. That will be taken into account too.

Remember: It is not easy to impress me with arcade games as I have been playing since I was born and know every game here inside out, back to front and upside down.

Some games have little tricks, which are used get your score into ridiculous figures. If you discover one, I will probably know this by your score (as it would not have been possible by normal convention) and I will thus award a special bonus as an extra for you being a clever so and so.

As a start, I am awarding Shona 200 credits for putting a salutable score on 9 Dragons hexa. Well done, that score you got needed skill and speed to get.

Now - up to the rest of you to (try) and impress me

Go Ahead - Make my Day !!!

Well Done to Banned biker.

I have kept this dude on his toes the last couple of weeks, but this was only to make him stronger.

He has put a very good score on 42 Games that quite impressed me so he gets 200 Credits.

Rememeber - The more impressed I am - the higher the award !!!

If it's any consolation, it took me quite a few try's to say the least to beat it. Completing all 42 was alone not good enough. It had to be done on the 4 nearly every time to get there. ie I had to be very quick.

Normally I put a score on a game that just beats the previous highest place as I cannot be bothered continuing on and on, but this was not like that. It actually took me some effort so well done.

Tell you what, beat it today and I will give you another 300 credits and will not attempt to beat it for at LEAST A WEEK. So you can have the glory for at least this long and who knows, maybe longer as I am not unbeatable - just Human.... well, most of the time !!!

Well done!

Which type of games do you like most? If you all let me know I will put more of them in our Arcade. I will of course try and please our Sponsor members first.

Well. . . . What can I say. You beat it quicker than I expected. Maybe, it is you that will be keeping me 'On the ball ' with these games. But that is good because I am Human and become lazy with them and only do what is needed to stay just ahead. Some games that I am capable of putting ridiculous scores on, I cannot be bothered cos of the time required so I prefer the timed or fast games. I know this is being lazy but there you go.

Get ready though, cos when the week expires (as promised) I will be back with a mission... To put a score on 42 games that even I can't believe.

But until then, you can Reign Supreme there

Then again, Maybe I will find it hard to beat, who knows....

Lets wait and see.

YOUR 300 CREDITS are in your account. WELL DONE !!!

T.S.
