Nice snipe score, Skinny.

A paragon of purity, chastity and innocence.
Fair reminder that I don't weigh the same as a duck, so I am not made of wood and therefore I am no witch.
Sometimes I don't know where in the world I am.

I used only four bombs until the last base battle. 

I think if you use less bombs you can collect more "p" instead of collecting bombs again. 

the game is kinda glitchy with spawning enemies. There are "sweet spots" that can spawn more. And somethimes enemies just aren't there. Like cannons on the ships???

Here is a lil clearer pic

I didn't plan on playing any more even if you or Bea beat my score; it's my wife's birthday weekend and happy wife equals happy life! No contest gaming for me!
I pretty much gave up after I posted that score that was only 360 points lower than yours. Got some stuff going on here.
As predicted, it got me third this week.

Are you gonna post your score to the NA Scoreboard? Or was this not on the AVS?

I probably could have gotten fifth place this week, but the buttons on both my controllers are getting bad, and my next replacement won't come in the mail until tomorrow.

Oh well.

I still quite enjoyed Twin Cobra. Probably my favorite of this year's shooters.

I already posted all I got a few days ago.  
Didn't play it since. You got the win this week.

I like this game. I finally got more of a stride today. I should have played it more this week, instead of playing last weekend and not touching it much until this weekend! I'm not surprised that skinny sniped. I bet it was more of a "oh sh11, I didn't post a score.. HURRY!" than anything though

It's Pacific time, man! That's why I tend to submit my scores in the manner that I do. I've come close to missing submitting my updated score many times! Sorry that you missed out. What was your score?

Feels good old to get a win. The competition for wins is sick this year. "May not be good as I once was but I'm as good once as I ever was"!!!!! Lol

Oh please. I am terrible at video games and even more so at shooters.
I don't even have a single win on the genre.

Damn. The top three scores are so close. Very much reminds me of the Target Renegade contest in terms of closeness of scores. Congrats Skinny.

The refurbished NES controller buttons are too stiff. It must be those cheap Chinese replacement parts. I'm gonna return for a refund.

Darn it.  
The solution for this is murky.
Maybe a good contact cleaning will get your old NES controller back in business?

It did. I took apart and cleaned my original controller and it's much more responsive now.

Excellent.
No one but gluttons for punishment should use bad, stiff controllers at the contest!
