Yeah, I'd say the odds of me beating that are about 10%


RichardHead will place 1st for the first time, when it matters most

At which world and stage did you die on? 8-2? Doesn't look a lot like 7-2.  
I need to know so I can aim to beat it. I don't have a girlfriend to worry about.

I do wonder where you got those 70K points over me then. I missed one bonus stage and 2 pots, I think.
I will have to figure out where those points came from.

I played all day yesterday, and couldn't even get back to 200K. I'll need a massive recharge to get my mojo back

Well, I am hone earlier, so I will check how this "dumb hammer trick" works.  
Hopefully I will go past World 6-1 this time.

Score update at page 2.
Couldn't even crack 400K points. I am terrible at this game.  
And even doing the cobra trick, I started world 6-1 with 50K less points than Richard. I need to stop being so bad at this game.

BTW, I'll probably never post another fake score as I did with Palamedes. All of my scores from now on are legit attempts. A well executed snipe near the end of a contest is fun, but I would rather that people trust what I post and not be like skinny where you can't believe anything they say.
I always posted my scores right as I got them. I know there's some strategy in posting a decoy score, but for anybody that knows me, I was always they type to say "Here's what I've got, let's see if you can beat it". I'd rather put legitimate pressure on the competition early on with them knowing what I've got instead of keeping them guessing.
Never trust what's on the board. If you don't try to improve your score up until the last minute that's your fault. 

You got sniped? Cause your score wasn't good enough anyway. Don't count on me to show you mine.

Well, good luck with that.
I screwed up badly at run and didn't get the fire back till 7-1, which means I left a lot of points on the table.  
And I am reviewing the footage of my stage 7-1 so I can beat it tomorrow.

Watching some other high score youtube videos as well.
I missed quite a bunch of hidden eggs, it seems. At least 20K more points just there.
And I need to get better at collecting fruit. I usually get 60% or less of the fruit in a stage.

I'm _hoping_ to be able to no-death to area 4 by Sunday. Even that might be too hopeful.

I've died to the snake on the first stage about 6 times this morning. This does not bode well.

It's going to be a war of attrition!  I died to the same frog more than once!  Death to all frogs!

Once you're past that snake you have to deal with crap like seemingly safe platforms that drop without warning. I died so many times forgetting about those.
