Prior Kickle Cubicle contests were one life (makes sense considering the possibility of 1up loops) and people were getting millions of points, so I expect crazy scores this week.

Indeed, 1-life, and in 2010 and 2011 we were highly Pro-1-life rule because it was a good way to shorten the runs attempt. it solves a lot of looping problems and abuse (like you said), and because it was a way to make almost any game difficult or more difficult at the least.

I loved the 1-life rule  
  I also love the one life rule. I think it should be used more often. If not always.

Well I'm going to mail bea "the red hat violation" picture. The original "pumpkin humpkin" is the prize for link in 9th place if they want it. And I'll upload high res pics for anyone that wants to download them at some point.
Sure, I'll take it. IT's probably the only prize I'll win this year. I promise to frame it and hang it in my game room when I get back to the states.

Scores updated.

Welcome Redneck_RN, for joining in this week.

Also, crazy that the tall guy's early (and still impressive) score netted him 7th overall this week. Each week these scores are impressive!

Ninjistar may earn a sniping crown yet ...
Haha. That's not my intention, but I think I could accept that

The only contest on the schedule that I think I'd have a chance at winning would be Contra if it's high score rules since I've been able to max out the score before. I wouldn't be surprised if it ends up being a one loop, low score contest considering how you can just stand in place and point rack enemies all day.

 

I have maxed the score on Contra before as well, yeah.
But that was back in 2012!
I will try to pull that off again if they go with a highest score rule set.  
 
Congratulations, it's quite the task to accomplish! I think it took me 7 full loops and about 3 hours to max out the score when I did it and that was several years ago as well. If I recall correctly, the slowdown from all of the extra enemies really gets bad around the fourth loop, which was more of a challenge than the actual game.

And that win puts him ahead of me again.
We were somehow tied at 12 wins since last week.  



I'm sure both of you will pass me on the career wins list by the end of the year. That's what I get for being terrible at video games.  

Inconceivable!  
The only feasible win I see on the upcoming games for me is on Side Pocket.
