WOW! How did you get in on this?

We must have Albert make this front page news!

Sent Albert a PM pointing him to the website, this post, and explaining things real quick. Good luck!

:)

I'll try and get some posts up elsewhere also.

Here's a tip on the game.. you can stay at the help screen as long as you want during a game.. use it like a pause feature to go take a pee. I'm currently on level 15.

Sorry one more post. I just wanted to say your website is looking nice since I first saw it when you opened. Like the design. Looks like you have a bunch of games. I wish I was coming to your area. I was on a train going from New York City the other day and was talking to this girl. She said goodbye to me and I asked where she was going since she was getting off at the airport. She was going to Nashville!

I wrote to Stride gum saying how I don't chew gum (mostly because the flavor didn't last long). I haven't chewed gum in maybe 20 years! I told them I love and appreciate the promotion and am going to buy their gum today (I did) to see if it lives up to the commercials. While I like their commercials, they didn't make me go out and try the product.. it was this contest that did it for me. If I like the gum I'll most certainly buy more.

They wrote me back saying thanks and they would forward my comments to their marketing department.

starts to get difficult around level 10. Shields would be handy at that point.

You got a lot of ground to make up dream. Going against all those Taxas collage students

I played a quick game after seeing the news but somehow missed that one of the arcades on there is owned by an AA member. I donated the points from my first game to Arcade UFO in Austin, which is where I spent most of my life. I used to love going to Einstein's on the drag, although I wasn't able to go check out Arcade UFO prior to moving away.

Once I noticed that DreamTR's arcade is on there (and currently in last place!), I played again and did much MUCH better. You are now 49,000 points closer to your goal. :) I'll try to hop on there at least once a day in order to give your arcade some points. You may not catch up with Arcade UFO, but we can at least try. :)

I like the cause but I'm not feeling the "play a game"...sounds like a perfect way to distribute malware...

I too like the cause, but the game is boring after the first few rounds. Never the less, I do play a game every day.

Just threw in my lot for Game Galaxy, must now investigate if I can play and donate over again. What is everyone else scoring? I've done it twice so far and I'm at around 70K each time.

No love for Star Worlds? Maybe you should watch this video and contribute some points! Distant third is nuts!
