Shout out to anyone who hasn't posted a score yet. Why can't you do it? Why can't you set your monkey free?

It's an action/platformer game in which you must rush ahead and then fight the enemy.





I'm a bit confused : /

What do you mean by "calculated"? I thought it was elimination style. If you don't get eliminated you move on to the next round. Or am I missing something? Will my point total from this round carry over to the next? Or will first place get 11 points, second place 10 etcetera, giving first place from this week a lead going into next week?

I was under the impression we all start equal from round to round.

Just updated to over 200K and I feel that's it for me now. I have nothing left to get out of this game. Good luck to everyone else for the next few hours.

I've been using the old site format since the switchover occurred because I'm way more used to it.  You can still access the old site here:
