Wihoo, got one more Mountain 1
This level represents exactly the thing I love about bd4. High scores indicate that a 1000 pointer would be out of reach but when you put your mind in to it and come up with a few minor tweaks to your methods it all clicks. I LOOOOOOVE THIS GAME! |

Quote (Wil): | Who can claim premier 1000 pointers (the page hasn't been written yet - updated manually, well via a preiodically run query)! |
Hi folks !
I worked pretty hard on Tropical, and could get 2 new 1000 pointers. Level 14 and level 61. The former took a lot of determination, but I was convinced it was possible after I scored 996. Level 61 was quite a surprise in fact !
And I just got No 1 rank on Tropical, just above asarkila. Well, it'll only last a
few minutes when he notices I guess

I figured 61 tropical was possible but hadn't managed to get it. As for 14 I thought it was possible but hadn't got there either. Well done!
Shit! We're at 387 and I've still got my 4-6 in hand. Maybe we will get there sooner than I thought after all. I've just updated the premier 1000 points page and hope to add an auto update to the server whenever a score over 1000 points is logged.
And, is it me, or did seb just pass Anyone in the combined rankings? |

Wil, do you think it would be a terrible thing if the Search scores/High Score Search -page would default the Score value to Greater than 999? This could be used to inspect new 1000 pointers.
Ok, maybe I can just change it myself, but it just gets pretty annoying when you have to do it for each levelset.
A cookie maybe to save my preferences ? |

I think change it yourself! I get pretty frustrated with having to change the "scores in the top 10" and it defaulting to showing the scores played in the last day or two (which excludes checked in scores). Basically there's no real excuse and not much point customising this very general page for the sake of individual tastes. I may improve it later but there are many things with higher priorities. For the moment write your own html version and post to the site (ie copy the form to your own page or file).
The only change I *may* make is to allow searching over multiple level sets. That said it's not that efficient since each is set up independently in terns of database tables, threads, etc |

I had a good run on Jungle on the weekend and also Mountains. I ended up with 7 new 1000 pointers, level 50 taking me as long (probably longer) than 5 of the the others and level 32 taking quite a while too. I'm pretty much all out in Jungle, with perhaps one or two more levels (um)possible. I believe Mountains and Forest still have a couple, particularly in the last few levels of the level set (e.g. Mountains level 80 is possible for sure)
Asarkila, add a "print=1" to the URLs to remove menus, etc.
So, three more to go..... And they said it couldn't be done! |

Wow! No thanks to me. I played a marathon session last night (about 10 hours) on a single level but failed to get the 1000 pointer. Over the 740 games played I managed 996 (time is worth 30) and had it "in the bag" many times but the yams just roamed the top of the screen (I looked like ending with about 22 time (20ish for 1000) but the yams just wouldn't come down and ended with 5 time). Needless to say it wasn't a successful session. The evil level is number 30 jungle.
So, I had played 2200 games in Jungle and now I've played almost 3000 for no gain. Doh! I think the level is better suited to your type of level anyway and is definately possible.... I'm still keen to get it out of the way.
My next challange if 400 solo! I think there are about 5-6 levels that I don't think I'm capable of (2 or 3 for sure).
Seems you took an easier road. Perhaps I should have held off getting those Jungle ones until fater the 400 since the challenge is now less convincing. Still, there are always more. I'm suprised we managed 400 so easily. Given the talk before I'm curious if 410 is possible! I still have 3 or 4 I know are gettable. |
