The record is 8.4 million, but second place is only 1.7 million so that's a pretty big gap.

8.4 might be a little tougher. I played a little bit on Monday, I'm gonna try to play more this weekend to see if that record seems legit. We all know some of those records are just from lack of interest. I'm not sure yet if stinger falls into that category

Based on my experience playing and the math figuring up the minumum it would take to reach that score, I'd say the record is very legit.

Yeah, I noticed that too. I'm almost tempted to post what I've got so far, but it would be my luck that I'd jinx myself and not be able to top it the rest of the week.

That's not the game over screen so I'm guessing you're still holding out.

I'm not too worried. Since the last two shooter genre champions are in this tier, I had a feeling that I'd be lucky to manage 3rd place.

Great scores everyone! I honestly haven't had much time to put into this game this week as I have been working my second job the past 2 days and will do so again tonight.

The good news is that tonight is my last day there so in the near future I'll have more time to give to the contests as well as other endeavors

I'd be happy if I could get half of that by the end of the week and I'm not holding my breath.

Idk Doug, u might suprise yourself. I just had a casual run with a ton of deaths and I was almost a 2 million. I'm just wondering if the difficulty on the later loops really gets cranked up.

Don't worry, I'm giving it all that I've got. This will probably be my last contest for a while, so I'll have plenty of time to rest on Monday.

You never know to be honest. It will definitely be interesting to see what the winning scores from each tier are.

Based on what has been submittied so far, I feel like Tier 3 will be a total crap shoot. I'm enjoying the Tier 1 banter, though

Well, where's it at? Then again, a "starter score" sounds like it could be a decoy.

Nope,no tricks. Honestly I wish the tournament finals were next week as I'd have a lot more time. I'll just have to do what I can.

Be honest, you've already tripled the world record haven't you?

updated my score. This might be my last update 'cause I really don't think I can top that score. Now just have to see what everyone else in my tier posts. I'm sure we'll see some monster scores for the final.
