Ha ha ha ha I thought the participation score was getting to Area 21 not 11, so I didn't snap a pic of my run. Now that I see the level progression that would've been a ridiculous participation requirement!

Probably no interview this week either.  The current subject is a bit... unresponsive   so I'll probably give it another week.  Stryphos spoiled us by being so charitable with his time

Aww...  
That is so very sad!
The interviews are always so entertaining to read!

1,495,270 - Game cleared
1,582,670 - Game cleared
1,710,950 - Game cleared
1,797,570 - Game cleared
1,930,050 - Game cleared
1,340,010 - Area 18 right at the start
232,460 - Area 13 at the boss


And this is my absolutely best. I can't do better than this without some serious practice that would take weeks.

This is what I got after a good shot of rum during lunch.
Might be able to cut another 50K out of it, but other than that, it would require a miracle.

Okay, thay is my drunk hand. Now I am waiting on yours, new kid and Skinny.

Managed to cut a few points from my score.

I will try to improve upon this, but alas, I am not sure I can.
Not without alcohol. Intentional wardrobe accident seemed to have helped with my skills, though.

In a hind sight, I should have blown a few enemy erasers here, but alas...
This is a decent start.

I suck so much at this.
And the hitbox of the girl ship is HUGE! It is really hard to dodge stuff on this game!

I worked through a trial run and the Area 3 boss is the make it or break it point for me. I was able to get through the rest of the game after Area 3 without dying.

idk if its area three, but the first seaweed throwing eyeball is the most "difficult" part of the game. 

i really dont feel like taking the time and effort to strategize a low score run tho. 

i might work on it a lil threw the week. but ill prob just beat the game and settle on score.

I'm short on time this week so I'll settle with a high score run as well if I can work my way through it.  Hopefully that will give you a mark to shoot for.

No alcohol for me this week, so I really doubt I will be able to beat it.
But I do hope to get close to it, at the very least.

... There are giant vulvae with clitoris and vagina dentata on area 14...
And I can't drink to get over that...

Good grief. Why did they feel like they had to add something like this to the game? WHY? D:

This game is definitely not for a lady of virtue, so pure, so chaste like me.
