I couldn't imagine any of those here, but regardless, have a look at this little thing. Pretty funny (the first 10 minutes).

I got 319. What did you get?

After many many many times.... 319.3. That took forever to get higher than you! I thought I was going to have to live with 312. You are right though. Fun for the first 10 minutes, just like the Cat-a-pult(no offense to cat owners/lovers)

Beat 67.8! Going that low is just as hard as getting a 300+ score.

Bah the attachment was too big.

Re: For all the linux haters out there... - 19/01/2004 20:13

Hey! We tied! I got 404 too!

And it was pretty easy. I mean.. only had to click once.. And that was to start it.

Re: Well it's about bloody time! - 20/01/2004 17:51

319.9 on about my 25th try. Sadly too often I end up making the penguin face-plant with no bounces at about 200.
Posted by: Daria

Re: Well it's about bloody time! - 20/01/2004 20:25

323.3 on my first try after I got home. This time I have a screen grab, but it's too big to attach. Guess I need to convert from tiff to jpg.

I'd been trying all day to get exactly 200 on the face plant, did on the 2nd try when I got home...

Re: For all the linux haters out there... - 21/01/2004 17:00

You're looking at the mastermind behind it all riiiiight here! Don't let that Homestar guy tell you that he's the brains behind it all. Because, I mean seriously, how could someone who wanted to change their name to Kevin Dubwow be the brains behind anything?! Although, I do realize now that he is pretty cool. Sort of.

That was my first try.

Re: Well it's about bloody time! - 22/01/2004 17:51

No, I mean the distance was exactly 200. I got 200.9, 199.7, etc etc until I finally nailed the elusive 200 on the mark.
Posted by: Daria

Re: Well it's about bloody time! - 22/01/2004 19:08

Getting exactly 200 on the face plant has been pretty easy, or at least I've done it pretty frequently.

I doubt there's anything else different. They didn't even bother to add new distance signs.

Re: Well it's about bloody time! - 30/01/2004 17:20

I hit the penguin quite low and it bounced for ages and I got 6784.7 so it does stop eventually

Re: Well it's about bloody time! - 30/01/2004 17:45

I think the object of this one is to get the shortest distance by faceplant.
Not that easy.

First swing. Oh well. I never like playing baseball anyways.

Re: Well it's about bloody time! - 03/02/2004 09:40

There's some weird bug in the thing that if you miss the first time, it shows 56.3 even though it's gone zero. Once you hit it and then miss again, it'll correctly show zero when you miss.
