    thats so true. I get bored after 10 levels of monsters den.... 1 entire night? no thanks....

    and theres my score ^^ points to 2 posts up

    This is NEAR PERFECT item usage. Maybe I could've used one of them a bit earlier, bc my mouse screwed up, but i doubt theres any higher score possible than maybe 9700

      I kinda miss Kongregate back when I first started out and had no badges. Whoring out all those games was a lot of fun -- on rainy nights over Winter Break, I'd stay up with movies/tv going, a nice supply of food, some music, and hours of Kongregate. Now it's too much of a waiting game.

On games like Micro Olympics, for instance, I realized my item-usage order wasn't optimal even though I thought it was.)
        , but how much higher than your score were they. Also there are some things that you might not know about like how I did not know about wall jumping in FPA. :/ It's still possible to get sub-150 without it.

          Well that's what I mean -- sometimes I miss something that would allow for a higher score. If I see scores slightly ahead of mine, it usually gives me incentive to figure out what smaller optimizations I might be missing. But really huge score jumps make me either think, "Ok I missed something big," or "This biznatch's haxxin"

            or like how you thought your 50 on Compulse was optimal. .

            this thread is now about how and when we've corrected Rubix.

              I didn't think I had truly optimized it -- I just knew it was near-optimal. That was on my first run-through of the game too, btw, and very quickly run-through.

              There were only a few levels in there I had incorrectly thought were optimal (the one where you needed to let it bounce on the ground first), some other level, and the last level (I had to actually throw it "over the head" at a weird angle).

              I still don't know if 44 is truly optimal, either. I'm almost certain there's at least one more place to reduce the load, but I'd have to check every level incredibly carefully. There's one level that we both have 2 on that I'm almost certain can be done in 1.

                Re: Omnipwn Tournament: Dual Core

                no i checked. I thought that level could be done in 1... wasted SO long figuring out every single combination... every PIXEL of placement was checked. Nope, just that little bit of height that you're missing. If you had like 2 pixels more height on that bounce it'd be doable on 1....


                I am happy to inform I got one more....

                  Do you know what level I am referring to?

                      Re: Omnipwn Tournament: Dual Core

                      Scoreboard so far:

                      Code:
                       
                      jon =                4940
                           spin green            1900
                           spin yellow           1420
                           spin red              1620
                      
                      commander =          4910 
                           spin green            1570
                           spin yellow           2060
                           spin red              1280
                      
                      tass =               3630
                           spin green            1490
                           spin yellow           1500
                           spin red               640
                      Tass should post his scores...

                        I could beat all those scores probably -- I'll whore it up later or something

                          Tip:

                          You have to be lucky for green. Yellow takes some skill, and red is a mixture of both.



                          Code:
                           
                          commander =          5130 
                               spin green            1570
                               spin yellow           2280
                               spin red              1280
                          
                          jon =                4940
                               spin green            1900
                               spin yellow           1420
                               spin red              1620
                          
                          tass =               3630
                               spin green            1490
                               spin yellow           1500
                               spin red               640
                          I'll probably try to get 3000 on that game. :P

                            red is no skill for me. As long as the astroids don't block up the whole screen, i can go forever. also, what was that very stupid comment about level 1? -_________-

                              I misread both of your posts so I deleted mine. How did you see it? I deleted it the very second after I posted.

                                its called email notification xD

                                Deleting threads don't help for that.

                                xD

                                Btw I believe i might be able to get better than 2250 on red... that is, if i whore it long enough....
                                My friend at class was like bet you can never beat his score in astroids (you avoid astroids coming down from the top of the screen xD). By the end of one math class i got over triple his score xD
                                lol that was funny...

                                LoL Commander its my red vs ur yellow xD

                                But i didn't even spend 1/5 as long on yellow as I have on red... maybe if i spend longer...
                                I did manage to FC Musik Marathon after all, and this is much less strict than that. I am immune to spinning >:]

                                and yep this was the first try after I saw your score >:] muahahahahahaha xDDDDD
