Rules
Post a picture of your score here with the score written underneath. Enter as often as you like. Only scores achieved during the round's time frame count.

Any reason why this rule isn't listed in Lemon`s rules?

If this rule is not followed then you can have an unfair advantage.

Looks like a fairly successful 1st try

@ransom
All the rules in their excruciating detail can be found in the 'rules / FAQ' thread on Lemon

I don't see "Only scores achieved during the round's time frame count"

Scroll to post #2 of that thread and you will see:

- Any scores submitted must have been played and posted during the named time period (see season schedule below).
- Any scores submitted before or after the round will not be counted.


I don't think anybody has ever failed to adhere to these rules, and if they had then the mods would be quick to point it out..

In other words - just relax and enjoy the competition

Terrible score. Lost most of my lives and just finished it with 2 left. Lol

And I forgot to press mousebutton to save my score. Lucky I took a photo. Tomorrow another go.

Thanks, but not good enough. I feel there is an issue with this system as I completed it with only 3-4 lives lost and a lot of lives left. If you die at the end of a lucrative level, then you would ad a lot of points to your score by playing it again and earning more points... Would you not? But then again, dying would void your upgrades and make the play through a lot more difficult...

I will try again and see if I can get almost ALL points, as fast as possible and not die once to see how the score wold look like then.

Apart from losing upgrades after dying yes you can get more diamonds but on the flip side you miss out on much more bonus diamonds. By not being able to headbutt bricks. Not being able to shoot monsters. Not being able to shoot dragons/spiders.

Even if you master jumping over the difficult firetraps (lvl19) you don't gain more by dying. By keeping your maxed out upgrades. You can achieve more especially in levels 25 to 32.

So the highest score should be achieved by not losing a life. In my opinon.

I think it's better than Crazy Sue but a lot more frustrating.
Finally finished it, which is a good thing because I'm not sure my controller would last any more attempts..

So close to your score ransom! Lots of time left in the round and I probably won't play it again.. maybe..

Basically it is the same for me too. . Crazy Sue had lots of character. Besides, I have other games to play right now.

To be fair I did quite like Crazy Sue, just don't like the feel of the controls of this game at all.

The exit of the bonus area of level 15 did for me this time, I also lost several lives trying to work out how to get past the dragon boss with no weapon.

The only way I could work out how he's done it is to purposely Die on levels with many Gems, and re do them whilst building up powers and not missing on head butting bricks etc etc.

To my knowledge a perfect score is about 80k. Let's hope after the round is over he could tell us his secrets.
