Season 5 - The New HSC - Weeks 15-16 = Sci-Fi Movie Weeks 2

I think I am coming in last place for Death Star Battle. I came in 1st place for Pitfall II. Has this ever been done before: someone comes in first on one game and last on another?

 

I'm sure it has. It's not unusual for me to kill it one week, then barely register a score for the next week or two. That's baseball.

Well, I did terrible with Tron. Ghostbusters was okay. I was finally able to reach Stay Puft, but I couldn't pass him. And I finally got lucky and had a decent run with Death Star Battle.

 

Tron: 6400

 

Ghostbusters: 12,400

 

Death Star Battle: 14,620

Managed to play a game of each, that's all.

 

SWROTJDSB: 4450

A/A is a completely different game than the default!

 

Tron: 28600

I've done far better when I could play more than one round.

 

Ghostbusters: ? 7200 ?

I have no freaking idea. After so often, I seem to have no more traps, and returning to the station doesn't help any longer. I go to a haunted building, my guy runs out to the middle of the screen, no trap in hand, and then runs off screen. Switching the left difficulty does not take me back to the purchase screen. Hitting select resets the game, same as hitting reset would do. Highest I got in a couple rounds before that happened was 7200, but of course trying to get more traps with console switches reset my game, so no photo... can I count 7200? More importantly, can someone tell me what the hell is going on, so when I play this on my own, I can actually play it?!?

They run off screen when the slimer ghost disappears. Every time a building is haunted, a timer starts running. The faster you get there and catch it, the more money you earn. If that timer runs down to zero, the ghost goes somewhere else. Later in the game, it pays off to keep track of which building started flashing when. That way you can avoid time-wasting drives to cheap or zero results and only catch those which will give you decent money.

Returning to HQ should empty the traps you have with you and replace slimed men. I don't know why that doesn't work for you. You are aware that you have to pull the stick towards you when you approach a building from the top? Just making sure.

So, the contest is over. Jake, S.Baz, would you please double-check that no posted score has been forgotten in the standings? I will wait for your final announcement of the "Death Star Battle" results, so that the three best players can get their deserved applause and prizes.

 

While you're at it... you seem to have forgotten to add my Ghostbusters score (18k points) mentioned in post #58 :-D

That must be it. Thanks!

 

I was probably confused, and did have traps, but thought otherwise when they kept leaving the scene instead of busting some ghost. Otherwise, it should have sent me to the station, if I was truly out.

Congratulations to Lid, Ramses and MGS! Looking at the scores, it was a tight race indeed.

 

Lid, please choose first from the prizes in the picture below. After that, it's Ramses's choice. As soon as the prizes are picked, please contact me via PM and give me your address. I'll handle all the shipping stuff.

 

Thanks to the user Andre81, who actually gave me an immensely great deal on a large number of games, so that we can have this little extra entertainment within the High Score Club.
