Still, its been amazing how close my scores are to Tass'. This just shows that Tass ISN'T unbeatable... if only Rhythm Fireworks and Movie Munchies werent there, and there were actually some ACTION games (like DO2 or something like that that ACTUALLY REQUIRES SKILL) I might have beat Tass. Just compare our scores on games like Snake and Ragdoll... big difference lol.

you realize that i stopped playing once i met the req in many cases, right? just saying...
beyond that, of course i'm beatable when it comes to flash games... generally it's the mentals and/or speed elements that give me a big edge. in this case, the mentals really weren't all that hard, or if they were... it was equally hard to all of us from lack of instructions. and the games haven't been all that difficult in this either... many completion reqs, which aren't that hard, especially when we've already done it before. and the ones that were point goals... all were somewhat challenging, but doable with some trial and error.
for yours, nobody else participating was all that dedicated or skilled. for house's, the game selection went my way... and for fractal's... i think i got lucky. both of devonin's and rubix's had speed components that i took advantage of, plus i was losing going into the omnidomination round. i must have spent 50 hours of time on that round alone during the course of that week... which is why i wound up winning. i was the only person to complete every game in the round and one of only 2 to even get through the entire round.
deaths/5 is too... yeah. WHG isn't even that hard to beat all 30 levels, and the only skill involved is the # of deaths... if it is deaths/5 then 200 deaths is only 40 points, so you're basically telling people that you get points for completion... and die as many times as you want...
I am not changing scoring from like 3 rounds ago. You should have said something then. jon, I am doing my very best with the games. I don't appreciate the constant complaints about them. If they are so easy, why don't you just finish them really fast? You obviously had enough time to do 50 tries on rhythm fireworks?!
1. often times you can't see bear traps because there are people in front of you blocking the screen.
2. you can't jump when you have a banana.
3. it takes way too long to pick up a banana and drop a banana and then be able to jump again.
4. i've placed bananas sometimes and they just don't drop at all, they disappear.
5. often times, if you get into a bear trap, it hits you twice.
6. sometimes, even normally trying to pick up a banana... you just dont. you grab it and it disappears.
7. sometimes, you drop a banana, but the banana still stays in your hand and drops on the ground... which creates all kinds of bugs for future banana pick ups.
basically, this game is hella frustrating because of bugs.
edit: have played about 20 runs now... i think, maybe, 2 of them have been bug free. MAYBE.

Number 1 is not a glitch. Not all games will be perfect, but that's what makes them challenging. hah I hate how the bear traps can hit you twice. Also, sometimes you will not see a banana ever. I.e. One run, I had 8 bear traps in a row, I died, and then I waited to see when the next banana would show. After like 10 seconds and the chef was already to the end of the screen, I saw a banana.
My best score so far would get me 500 points in this tourney.
Games don't have to be perfect... but when they have obvious and repeatable bugs... ones that destroy precise timing... that really kills the ability to play the game consistently and accurately at a high level.
It's a fun game, but to max out on it for this round you have to get lucky. Bananas do not come out at the same time every game. Sometimes you will never see a banana. Pure luck...
