Marble Madness was my second game ever for the NES. I thought I was good after playing it for such a long time but then I saw some of the high scores and I don't think I'll ever get a flawless run with wands  
I can get 150K alright but I don't think I'll ever get 180K

My pb is 178k. 179K is still the highest that I've seen anywhere online.

180k is well within the grasp of anyone who can consistently beat the game with 79 seconds left on the clock. All they need is a stage two wand. But it seems that it's mostly dedicated speedrunners who are are that good, and they don't usually play for high score.

Just to annoy me, his run is 10 points higher than my best score registered through the AVS, lol. But he will get 180k anytime soon, so whatever.
I would love to see a twitch stream of him going for 180k+. I bet he could easily do it within an hour of trying.
 
It's such a short game that speed runners must be hitting a wall with how fast they can beat it. They should start playing for ridiculous scores now.

No, I have not.   I've not been particularly close to a deathless run.
I've done deathless runs a few times, but my highest score is only 171k. I'm not in the same league as these other guys who can get near 180k, and I have practiced a ton. But then guys like guiill have been practicing for years.
