My final attempt at this - I knew I could get a good score if I didn't lose lives early on, that and keeping the area as clear as possible from mushrooms helps bigitme .

A lot snail bonuses helped too !

onto the next round.

I didn't really want to play this again. It's annoying as hell, trying to get the conditions for the centipede to loop down the bottom without harming you.

So, I did get a new high score but unfortunately the game finished 7 minutes after the top of the hour so though I've posted it, I won't put it on the HST....which would be slightly higher than your score CyberShark.......:-)

High Score Tables Updated for Season 22, Round Six......

This is a golden oldy for many and in different platforms for some. It's a smooth game, well programmed and infuriating at times but really, a well done game

Once again, we have a winner and Mr. usual is back. Venger . Congratulations on an excellent score (really crazy score for this game) and win Venger. You outstripped us by quite a bit in this one. The changing of the guard was a bit premature it seems? =D> =D>

On a side note I'd like to thank all those who played this round. We had 11 playing this game this round so.....Thank you!!! It seems we are mostly averaging out at 11 so this participation is average.

As usual please check to ensure I've not missed anyone's scores because it's easy to miss things on this and I really don't want to do that for anyone's hard earned score.
