I'm pretty certain someone else can get to my score as well as surpass it. Last time I lost against someone else by a couple hours in rolling the score. So it can be done.

Indeed. Keep going until you die, even after rolling score if you do, or until the game restarts you back at the beginning after beating it without dying if you happen to.

Okay, raising the bar a tad more, didn't roll it, ended up dying in the same place but this time because I was recording the game and got sloppy each time I pushed my camcorder aside to take a pic because I wanted to catch my highest score before it rolled, caused myself to take unnecessary hits. But, I have all day, will try again to get a better game played.
Score upon 1st death 999,920

Oops! Now you tell me. This time I rolled the score, it went 200 points over and I totally missed being able to take a pic before it rolled, but do have video, but I have to rerecord it since its on an old camcorder, so I have to play the video on tv, then record that with my webcam so I can upload it, if you need more proof.
Going to post my rolled score pick anyway, decide as you will, afterall, I can just as easily do it again.
Score upon 1st death, rolled score + 74,700
See a later post for a higher rolled score.
Didn't see a rule against it, and you are limited by the timer. If you know how to rack some points, go for it, you still have to be able to survive to rack some more at the next opportunity. I watched myself, via recording (was trying to upload to youtube but they were under maintenence for several hours, will have to try again soon), and it looks easy (it was and wasn't, one big screw up could cost me a life, be it nabbing the wrong subweapon accidently or taking too long, or dying in one of several dangerous spots making whatever time I put into racking pointless), also I sat on the same locations for quite some minutes before being forced ahead by time, seemed like a very long time having watched it, but its not like I sat in the same spot for hours. The timer will keep you check, and tell you when enough is enough, time to move on or risk having your life expired.
What do you teach that showing gaming would be part of a lecture? Sounds like a fun class.
Got vids coming up soon too. Still in the process of uploading, may be several hours, but once its all up I'll post the links for those who may want to view them.
