I've never been any good at Defender-- nor clones of the game. I know DropZone is more than a simple clone of the game (some consider it the better game), but a high score on that game coming from me is not possible. Now, if we were playing for the LOW DropZone score, than I would jump right into THAT contest!

I'll checkout the Pitfall II links
[the 3rd one is really nice, think I'll have to rope in my old gaming pal (Mr. justin case) for a day of Pitfall II... it's about time we finished this classic] I found my Miner 20'49er notes... Zones 5 Station 1 bug - jump R, Zone 6 Station 1 bug- walk R jump U... didn't mention the impossible screen but I think it was 3 or 4 maybe on Zone 6. Yes, I would have played a couple of hours to get that score, we played from Station 1 Zone 1, you need a very reliable joystick button

Oh I see you're posting here but playing the game that's currently in the 5200 HSC!!!
We'll HSC Season 3 was before my atariage time, so checkout when we played Miner 2049'er last time in Season 6 Round 1
Sorry your score got Crushed
The 5th time round or so the baddies spawn right on you and you need to know what is coming up, unfortunately there are a couple of screens that don't seem possible - can't believe they didn't test this far!!! If you have the cart version of the game I seem to remember (borrowed it once) diff 10(?) had super energy (food bar style) jumps which was a cool feature (though I might have dreamt this)
The All Time Ratings and Records thread has all an atarian needs know about high scores - shows when games were played too!
Did you beat the 2nd part of Pitfall II where the baddies go much faster - I found this too tough?
Hopefully you'll all get over to the DropZone for round 1 of the new season, there's still a day or two left to play

I've found a bug in Dropzone... and not the sort you can shoot... a couple of times I've been doing quite well, but after getting killed (perhaps near the end of a level) the level is empty- the NMeye repeatedly comes on - I've got no men to rescue and either nothing or just a single cloud to shoot... maybe it thinks I was still carrying the last man, perhaps I died when he was in the tube (it is possible to do that) and it gets in a mess and bye bye go 
Vote for round 2
[managed to beat the 1m again, had a strategy of going easy on the Strata bombs but this didn't leave many lives so I only just beat my score 1,089,250 yes the pressure got to me and I went to pieces
it's their haunting little cries for help that make me fly too fast ]
