Cupcakus #1 Posted December 14, 2002 I've been playing around with the flash cart today a lot more than I have been working on it... (Wouldn't you?) ha ha ha... Anyway I've always wanted to play SCSIcide but couldn't because emulated paddle games is a waste of time... so I threw it in, and did pretty well for my first few tries.... I heard that if I could beat Joe's score of 175k he'd give me a free Pixels Past Koozie!!!!! and I can't pass up a free Koozie... think of the warm beer that was counting on me to succeed? 18C0CC was my best score... I tried again and couldn't even get close to that again... :-) perhaps now that I won the Koozie I have lost all motivation? :-) It would be interesting to see who can beat my score now....

JCroniger #2 Posted December 14, 2002 Congrats!!! That's an awesome score. P.S. The new flash cart looks great. I'm hoping for a general release Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Silly Cupcakus, I got one free at the AA booth in Vegas! Of course, it probably helps that I bought a copy of SCSIside while I was there. And yes, I use it for my Budweiser all the time.

Xot #4 Posted December 14, 2002 Congrats!!! That's an awesome score. P.S. The new flash cart looks great. I'm hoping for a general release What difficulty settings are you using? With lane-to-lane jumping and the smaller read head I've gotten at least 160K that I can recall... I think... maybe I'm adding an extra zero Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cupcakus #5 Posted December 14, 2002 I had both switches to B... I know I was using smooth movement... not lane by lane. I don't know if I was using the small or large read head.. I never switched the difficulty to see. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joesmooth #6 Posted December 14, 2002 Hah! Nice score Stay tuned for your koozie (Budweiser not included) My high score is 174E10. The first two digits (first byte) is the level - so I was at level 17 hex (23 decimal) with a score of 4E10. Cupcakus rocked me. You'd know if you had the large drive head - it's BIG. Smooth motion is definetely harder than the track-to-track, since you can misread data bits easier. Stay tuned to AA for a possible SCSIcide High Score Contest. Lubricate your paddles! Maybe next time the award will be an autographed koozie or possibly the next generation label and manual. Joe Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mayhem #7 Posted December 14, 2002 //has managed over 170k too Perhaps I should have taken a picture... bugger... plus I'm playing on PAL and some of the colours are crapped up! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JCroniger #8 Posted December 14, 2002 Autographed Koozie??? I want one. That gives me an idea. AA should sell autographed games/manuals. Now that would be cool!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rob Mitchell #9 Posted December 15, 2002 I would buy an AA Koozie Rob Mitchell Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Albert #10 Posted December 15, 2002 I would buy an AA Koozie Yeah, we definitely need to buy more items like that and add them to the store. In time. ..Al Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keir #11 Posted December 16, 2002 Alas, all I could manage on SCSIcide was 112B47. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cupcakus #12 Posted December 24, 2002 Got my Koozie today!!!!!!!!! Yeah baby!!!! It's a major award!!!! The package said, "FRAGEEEEL", I think it's Italian. I put it in the window, and made sure it looked great from across the street :D :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Albert #13 Posted December 24, 2002 Alas, all I could manage on SCSIcide was 112B47. I have managed to get 15451B thus far, but I need to practice more so I can crush Chris' score. ..Al Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cupcakus #14 Posted December 24, 2002 It will never happen!!!! :-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StanJr #15 Posted December 26, 2002 I got SCSIcide as a gift and racked up 120E5B right away. My personal best was 13-something back when I got hooked on this thing at Philly. Look out koozie here I come! (yeah, I know how it sounds... ) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cupcakus #16 Posted September 7, 2003 Has this been defeated yet? Or am I still the reigning champion? :-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joesmooth #17 Posted September 7, 2003 You are still the reigning champion, Mr. Twinkie. But, maybe not for long. I will let slip an upcoming SCSIcide High Score contest on AA, so lube up your paddles and start practicing! :wink: Joe Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AtariK2 #19 Posted March 1, 2004 This thread inspired me to try SCSIcide for the first time. I received it a few days ago from the AtariAge.com Store and absolutely love it (how can you not like a great paddle game?) Below is my new High Score: 195A06 (Level 19) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bjk7382 #20 Posted March 1, 2004 Nice score! I am off to play a game and see what I can get Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joesmooth #21 Posted March 1, 2004 WOW! I am truely impressed. I haven't come close to my 17xxxx score from way back when. I better go practice Joe Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Albert #22 Posted March 1, 2004 This thread inspired me to try SCSIcide for the first time. I received it a few days ago from the AtariAge.com Store and absolutely love it (how can you not like a great paddle game?) Your timing is very amusing, as I just looked at this thread a few hours ago, before you posted your message, because I managed to best my high score and beat Joe's.. I was cleaning some paddles and figured SCSIcide would be a good way to test them. Looks like I'll need to play a little longer so I can get to level 0x1A. ..Al Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was cleaning some paddles and figured SCSIcide would be a good way to test them. It looks like my color palette is more amusing - either my Heavy Sixer needs a pot adjustment or it's my 'vintage' TV Keep at it - you are very close!

joesmooth #24 Posted March 1, 2004 Your colors are actually correct. I think Albert needs to do some fine-tuning Joe Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Albert #25 Posted March 1, 2004 It looks like my color palette is more amusing - either my Heavy Sixer needs a pot adjustment or it's my 'vintage' TV I took my picture without a flash, so it was exposed for longer in order for the image to show up. But this generally results in a pretty clean image as long as nothing's moving onscreen. Keep at it - you are very close! When I have some time I'll have to sit in front of the television, concentrate, and see what happens. I only took that picture to show it to Joe so I could brag about beating his high score. I wasn't going to post it in this thread until I saw your message and your great score.. ..Al Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
