Gorfy Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 Levels 9 & 10 are definitely milkable. So, are we outlawing milking Iceman? If so, shouldn't we just go by highest level reached? This is a good point. I don't want to feel obligated to avoid the Iceman. If you do knock off icemen, where do you draw the line between fair play and illegal point leeching? It seems we should either allow unlimited Icemen, or go by level attained as the Capitan suggests. any rulings, Baz or Jake? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oyamafamily Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 (edited) Let's AVOID using the following tactic (from 2600 OLD High Score Club Season 1 / Week 3 - April, 2004 - Moderator Ze_ro) (For quick reference: http://atariage.com/forums/topic/48528-high-score-club-week-3-mario-bros/) "On the later levels (around level 9 or so), you can leave the last enemy to wander the level, and Slipice's will continuously enter the level. If you're patient, you can just avoid the last enemy and the fireball and keep killing Slipice's for 500 points a piece forever.In fact, on level 10, the fireballs will never even show up on the bottom level, so you can easily kill Slipice's without having to worry about anything other than the final enemy. (bjk7382, chrisbid) Please refrain from abusing this tactic to get high scores" Edited January 19, 2016 by oyamafamily 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+KaeruYojimbo Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 (edited) Up to 97,600 I think the idea of going by level reached was suggested and rejected the last time Mario Bros. was played. I think we're just going to have to use our own judgement and common sense when it comes to leaching. It's one thing to get a slipice or two trying to get that last crab (it's always a crab, isn't it?), it's another to camp out somewhere to avoid the crab and nail slipice after slipice.

CapitanClassic Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 for now, reject my 300k+ score, and use my 90k score. I didn't really do much if any milking on that run. This is going to be difficult, going to have to change my strategy of staying on the 3rd level. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrabbler15 Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 67,900 This Mario game is pretty fun. They should make more games with Mario as the main character. . 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
