This is one of my new favorites that I've discovered thanks to the contests. I really like this one. It's a puzzle game that is more action oriented and more forgiving than other puzzle games on the system.

I've been practicing two or three times a day for the last few days to see how well I can do playing level 1 difficulty. Thus far my best is 14 perfects and a score of around 717k (just trying for perfects, no combos). I want to be ready for the next Palamedes contest!

One of my favorite puzzle game on the system too, and I discovered it through the contest back then like you.
 

It's a terrific "pick up and play" game that also has that addictiveness where you have to keep trying to top your high score.

I just tried once again and could only get 14 perfects. That 15th perfect is a real toughie.

Well, if Barrels and TWarwick don't show up, you have the 4th place already.
Let's see how this develops. I am mostly done with it. I don't feel like breaking this game to get 20 perfect games.

 

Barrels posted, I'm on the way out if I can't muster anything substantial in the next few hours 
 
Pfft... if even someone so terrible at video games like me could break 700K in this game, any of you can.

 
You are hilarious.  I bet you one life AI, and effectively take first across all tiers, and then talk about how terrible your score is  

Also, how are those futbol games going  

 
Drat. I forgot to complain about how terrible my AI score was so your prediction would be 100% true.

Very surprised and impressed at the scores in this game! Great job to everyone!
I can't say that I'm surprised at the scores given how good our players are, but I'm definitely impressed!

Well, all that matters is that I beat you dougie.  I had time to play twice, and it showed.  No excuse, and there were some very impressive scores.  I went and saw Shinedown and Five Finger Death Punch Saturday night instead of playing NES.  My bad...
 
I only played about five times yesterday afternoon, but I doubt that I would've gotten a score high enough that would've qualified for the finals even with a full week of effort given that 483,480 was the cutoff point. I probably could get 350k+ on a good attempt, but that's about it.

I got sniped  

I'm sorry about that.  I really did get that score on my final attempt.  About an hour and a half before that attempt I got a little over 420K and I would have posted that one instead, just to have a score over 400K, if I didn't play out of my mind in the final one.  It was just a matter of getting that extra perfect. ]]>
