Finally manage to rescue some hostages on lvl 3.
On a side note: never in my life will I attempt a "no deaths" run on this.. ever.

Great score, mate!
Yes I am quite close to the end but I am working a lot this week... yesterday I haven't had time to turn on my Amiga...
In any case... I'll do my best these last days... Whaaaaa!!

I'm all "whaaa'd" out.
Go liviux.. reclaim some points that has robo-sparkle has so effortlessly pilfered

If does seem a shame that the winner of this game gets so many extra points. It wasnt a problem on on games like Snow Bros because a number of players finished the game, but when only one finishes it, the scores are skewed drastically, and puts players off.

I remember the days when you seemed unbeatable as well. When you first joined and slaughtered everyone, players on the Lemon side complained 'whats the point with this new 'who' guy', perhaps on games like Risky Woods, Gee Bee? I remember when I first started, most of my Golds were scored in the first 16 months of play, and now I'm lucky to get a medal per season. I used to practice several hours a day in every round. These days if I cant get into a game, I dont necessarily force myself as hard, plus I dont have the time. At least you got a respectable score on RD.

Plus... its always fun to have inter-team rivalry.

Yes, which was why I was never a fan of this scoring system.


I just spent a few hours on this. It's a nice game, but it takes a while to work out how to complete certain bits. Mind you, not knowing the controls properly didn't help!
(I did manage to make this akward jump after several attempts, but then couldn't work out how to defeat the guy on the other side, without killing myself too!)

My final Whaaaaa!

[liviux76]

I did it!!! Whaaaaa!!

244060, I even missed a hostage on level 3 but in the end with only one life left I was able to finish the game!

And it's all over. Robo-Sparkle wins but great to see liviux76 do his bit for the EAB side by completing the game.

New round threads to follow very soon.

Well done liviux!!! I had a feeling you would do it

@lifeschool
Risky Woods.. I remember that round

Yes the new scoring system certainly makes for a more 'dynamic' experience. There is really no such thing as a 'comfortable lead' any more, which I'm still for.. I think

Thanks for your support!
I would have needed a few more days to achieve a better score but honestly I think that the first place was too far...
The most important thing is that we had fun! "Whaaaaa!!!"
