After all that talk about point pressing and such in Blkdog's post, I felt like playing a couple of games of DK tonight and going for the elusive 200K as well. I broke my high score, but...

So close.
 
I've put DK on hold for a little while. I really want to get my video issue resolved, so I can go ahead and put in my high score kit. 97000 was my highest, but lately I've only been scoring in the mid 50's and 60's. I've been able to get past the 3rd elevators before, but now they're kicking my ass. Oh well.

I really need another cab so I have something else to talk about... But no cheap projects have come up around here. I think there's a few craigslist resellers that beat me to all the good deals. Or maybe it's my imagination.

Also I rarely get the bottom hammer, but always grab the top one.

Good job, Jess! Soooo Close... Just think, after you make 200k, then you'll be able to concentrate on 250k. :D I can't even hit 100k, so you're way ahead of me already.

Me too... I'm stuck at 77,800 as my current high score with average scores right around 50,00 to 60,000. I make a lot of stupid mistakes which cost me lives. The one that gets me most often are when two barrels come down just far enough apart that you can't jump both but just close enough that if you don't jump the first early enough you will get hit by the second before you can make that 2nd jump. Damn them. I've passed the 3rd elevator level a couple of times but right when I think I've got it down I get crushed on it again... that is, if I make it to the 3rd elevator level at all. The pie factory is my nemesis as it seems mostly like luck to me. Sometimes I can fly right up while other times I get completely trapped by the fire guys.

I think I just need to play more than a few rounds every couple days. That and I need a dedicated DK cab because I'm convinced that the fact that I only get to play a 48-1 is bad for me. :)
