justin case Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 Over the years since my [mispent] youth I had managed to forget what a pain the erm, neck! that damned Pteradactyl (What do you mean I spelt that wrong? They're extinct, so what's gonna come pecking on my door to complain?) I'll start the ball [egg] rolling (mmmmmmm, egg rolls!!!! [drools a little]) with a modest 44,850. I'd supply a screen shot, but it's nearly 400 meg - having problems setting my camera to a lower res. I think I should retire now, whilst I'm at the top - nobody likes a has-been!

I'm not even going to post my score (unless it improves VASTLY) C'mon don't be shy, plus we all like to see lowly scores to make us feel superior Todays go 272,400, got to wave 25 but then the egg wave had a pterry so not sure how fair that was... pterry 4 trbb 1 (the only time I killed him I was in the off screen invisible zone under the platform... hmmm maybe that's it, just hide off screen ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a8isa1 Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 Whoa! The colors are strange on my ol' 800! Had the game of my life (not that its good). Maybe I can do a little coding during the balance of this HSC. 135,800 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That really sucks. I've killed her a few times (always by accident.) If she's barreling down on me and I know she's gonna get me, I'll turn around, facing her and hope for the best. 9 times out of 10, she gets me, but there's nothing more satisfying than taking her down that one time.

Time for you and orpheus to 'show and tell' After losing 7 men trying to avoid the pterry on level 18, I decided to go for the old bird with some success (and some failure... plenty of failure) but got to level 26 or so 311,290 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
