Without the pressure of my BeatBox score you would've probably made it.
Crazy to get the bonus up that high again in the same run.

As a Jordan/Midland/Spyker/Force India/Racing Point/Aston Martin fan who has witnessed a lot of mediocrity in the past 25 years, that was quite something to behold


In other news I scored 3bn again.


Scores updated.

For the first time in months I'll be submitting scores for this round and streaming it live at 8pm GMT, for those who enjoy such things (although don't expect anything above medicore score-wise)...

Welcome

Just a few more hours to play pinball, before we go back to the ages of pre-history again; this time without too many chariots.

In what may or may not be a competition first, I have stuck the scores from Graham's stream on the leaderboard, even though he hasn't officially posted them.

I didn't think that this round was going to go to the final hour. I spent an hour trying to improve on Nightmare, but I decided that Ignition was lower hanging fruit. I hope this is enough:

Ignition: 136,561,874

And once more, your winner is... capehorn.

Champagne and caviar to the winners, who each get to kiss a girl on the podium.

1st - capehorn
2nd - john4p
3rd - kokoriko

24 players this round means it was one of the best this year. Lets hope we have similar numbers as we march on to the next challenge. This time a platformer, with only 4 levels. !
