McKong Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 I played PAD and chicken quite a bit on Friday but couldn't get much better. I've noticed, particularly on PAD that the bat wobbles around a lot when I move the paddle, it makes it much more difficult. That's my excuse anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ballyalley Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 I've noticed, particularly on PAD that the bat wobbles around a lot when I move the paddle I've noticed this when playing "PAD" too. At first I thought it was due to jittery paddles, but my paddles are newly cleaned, and none of the other paddle games this seemed affected in this way by my paddles. It's been a couple of weeks since I've had my Atari hooked up to a TV. I've not even been able to use emulation. I'm glad that this round was extended, as it will allow me the extra time to hook up my 130XE this week in a temporary place. Our home remodel may has cramped my Atari time, but maybe when it's done, then our like-new home will help me score higher each round. I'll just keep telling myself that... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+therealbountybob Posted October 25, 2015 Author Share Posted October 25, 2015 Try the 75% setting on the paddles options - you have 4 adjustment options that might improve things. Also PAD lets you use any paddle so try using the 2nd one. Failing that play a few dummy goes then see if it improves. Chiseler 5,693 Still love Space Eggs, it's a very good game with neat variations in your ship - first time managed to get the mixed wave had about 1500 on the first man and managed the dock for the first time (this round) too... 2,655 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+therealbountybob Posted October 27, 2015 Author Share Posted October 27, 2015 my paddles are worst than your's... damn right... erm they going crazy tonight - swapped them over and the same so perhaps it was the XE - Spy's Demise was so bad the little guy was flicking left when I was full right at the sides! 3740 - would have beaten my score I bet! Sneakers 4078 - Scrubs, I actually shot a few of them this time! Small improvement on Pad 133,580 paddles were fine here as I could use #2. Again reached I2 might have to keep track of my route L/Rs Chicken was good tonight! 204,140 (21) still managed to get a few bonuses past round 16 - not too much harder really and probably too many extra men - suspect someone might go on for the million one day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+therealbountybob Posted October 28, 2015 Author Share Posted October 28, 2015 After a hard days work a quick play on Sneakers - nice game as you can make progress after a while - finished the first round and got the extra life - 6,121 high scores over 5,000 show after the end of each go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
