StanJr #1 Posted January 18, 2004 Well, at the cost of a set of paddles and my thumbs and carpet, I FINALLY broke 10K on Decathlon! Weeeee! I really should have done better, but I totally blew the Javelin Event with 2 scratches and I should have gotten more pointsin the Hurdles, but I got robbed. Wee. Somebody should give me something.

taxman #5 Posted January 18, 2004 That used to be the game that everybody in my neighborhood played. Seemed like the 10000 was a big hurdle (kind of like the 4:00 minute mile) and then once I broke through, everyone else followed. Makes me want to give it another try as it's been almost 20 years since I've played it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

davidbrit2 #9 Posted January 18, 2004 I find that the Track and Field controller is perfect for Decathlon. You can hold down one of the two buttons, mash the other, and you'll run extremely fast. And of course there's the pole vault trick that everybody already knows. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Big Player #10 Posted January 18, 2004 The Track and Field controller is an easy way to get great scores in Decathlon. The first time I used it, my scores were not far below David Crane's best ones that are listed in the instructions. It also keeps your joysticks from getting destroyed.

StanJr #11 Posted January 18, 2004 please, by all means, send me one of these "track and field" controllers so that I may get higher scores as well.... Are T&F controllers considered cheating, Thomas? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Big Player #12 Posted January 19, 2004 please, by all means, send me one of these "track and field" controllers so that I may get higher scores as well.... Hey, if I remember correctly, you passed on a Track and Field controller last year at Philly. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StanJr #13 Posted January 19, 2004 I did? Must have been overpriced. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tiggerthehun #14 Posted January 19, 2004 I did? Must have been overpriced. No, I remember that one. You passed on it, not because of the price - $1 - but because it came with a mandatory kick to the nads. Good thing you read the small print. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scooterb23 #15 Posted January 19, 2004 it came with a mandatory kick to the nads I don't think that would have stopped me... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
