I don't know then. I notice some planes appear out of know where but I have more then enough time to shoot them down. Good luck dude.

Yeah invisible stuff is hard To see. It's not like its a common way to die, but it just happened to end my two best runs.

I was going along just fine. Looked to be in a safe spot, then bam game over.

I was like Wtf happened. Didn't actually figer it out until I watched the death 3 or 4 times on the tape.

Conversely good bugs happen too like when a bullet goes right through you, and you escaped unharmed.

All the same I,m just being a drama queen. I know I am going to have a break out run eventually.

Phew, taking a break mid-playing here. Doing quite good, though I doubt I can roll it. Had too many close calls. Thing though, I see one loop hole in the roll and lives theory. Technically, someone COULD lose a life or even a bunch and you wouldn't know it. Occasionally you get those extra life Pows, seemingly at random, so theoretically you have no real way of knowing how many times someone died. Within about 9 lives or so, maybe, but, for example, on the fifth level or so I got a series of THREE extra lives from icons in a row. Doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason for when they appear, but considering that it would be possible for someone to say they didn't die when they did after rolling. Let's see how far I can take this (currently at 735,150)...

Nooo.  Chapter one on how to jinx yourself...  Anyway, don't think I have the insanity level to play through it that long again, so we'll let this score stay.

799,700

Hahhaha, no, I'm done. No more of this. I had to take several breaks because the gameplay is so mind-numbing while trying to hold without losing a life.

That's what I'm wondering. Kinda makes me want to whip out the joystick again, but... just can't... do.... it...

Good score!

Yeah man, I'm done. The couple of other times I played it was either a stupid death from playing too cocky or not paying attention during trouble spots (like when the gray planes tend to blend into the beach areas). Those times just make it frustrating to start all over and go through all the bullshit.

I'll throw my hat into the ring. I got 41,050. Not even close to the insane score some people are coming up with though.

This is the best I'm gonna do. This game's soundtrack is melting my brain, but playing muted I do horribly for some reason.

I had a score of 250k or so the other day but I just can't take it anymore. You 500k+ guys have the patience of saints.... 

Hopefully next week's game isn't as mind numbing.

Well I beat it! I never thought I would be able to spend the time to beat this game, but I was able to stomach all 32 levels of extreme shooting action today. The last level is the easiest level in the game, pretty disappointing.

Congrats man!  Yeah, feels good to put it to the smeg.  Did you count how many hombre's you lost?

First time I beat it this week, I probably dropped a good 15 or 17 lives, but I was able to beat it dieing in just one spot, another time, and surpass number 3 on the TG list.

This one is giving my spincter muscle a work out.

I don't know for sure, but it was just a few. 5 or 6 maybe. The TG record is pretty high, that dude is an animal at this game.

Yeah, Tom is damn good, but he told me technique he used, banned in the context of the rules we are running.    In other words, no one is getting 2 mill on one plane.

ALright so I rolled once with a decent final score. I'm going to keep trying but I really doubt I can do better then this.

High Score = 1,136,700




Here's my score before and after the roll over.
