JacobZu7zu7 Posted January 25, 2012 Author Share Posted January 25, 2012 I just want to say jacobzu7zu7 is doing a great job! Thanks. why thank you, Vocelli... ! I figure since I'm moderating 7800 HSC, and I'm on AtariAge once a day, why not !? I did get one message from Zero saying he's still very busy, and whatever challenge I hold here, is fine by him.

Stan Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Not sure if I'm doing something wrong, but it was a near gargantuan task for me to clear just 25k points... Doubtful, the game just requires very quick reflexes. One thing I can suggest, is hang around near the bottom and only go up when the Thirsties start to drink. The ones at the bottom reach the Kool-Aid faster and thus decrease it faster, so you need to focus on them. The upper ones take a few moments to get down to it with their straws.

Deteacher Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Eventually, as you play more and more, you start to figure out what thirsties are going to dip their straws into the pool. Look for lines where there is only 1 thirsty. If you see 2 thirsties on the same level, they're not going to try to drink. So, learn to keep your eye on the whole board and maneuver your pitcher on lines with only 1 thirsty as much as possible. Get on a line with a drinking thirsty as fast as you can, and then move left or right to nab it. After taking it out, you can usually stay on that same line for a brief moment, which is usually long enough to plan your next move...but you ALWAYS have to be thinking about where to go next, or you're not going to last long. I hope these tips help. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JacobZu7zu7 Posted January 25, 2012 Author Share Posted January 25, 2012 81,600 I wonder if its possible to roll this puppy. Edit: just noticed that the score has 6 digit places available, no just 5, so I answered my own question: No, it's probably not possible Awesome score Gorfy! Have you played this game often?

Gorfy Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Awesome score Gorfy! Have you played this game often? Thanks, Jacob. I've played this game a little bit in the past, but not that much. My 81k score was definitely lucky since my previous all-time high was 69k. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vocelli Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Slightly higher. Really addicting game. Looks like my predicting of 22K being the low score is going to be close. Whose picking the next game? There is one game I really suck at. I guess pick that one soon so I don't get stuck with it later.

JacobZu7zu7 Posted January 28, 2012 Author Share Posted January 28, 2012 (edited) E-2 has been selected by HatNJ and it's the game, (River Raid) picked by Metal Jesus. "I'm goin' down to the RIVEEEEER!" This is another RIVER game, only Yars' did not include any sort of water. Maybe Seaquest will be picked next?
