In Topic: Atari 2600 HIGH SCORE CHALLENGE: BONUS - REACTOR / MOUNTAIN KING

Wed May 23, 2012 5:12 PM

Mountain King - 43,775

Reactor - 69,522

There is no danger of me being King this week, Mountain or otherwise. I won't be able to play anymore until sometime next week. But I did get a couple of scores, for now.

In the movie "The Search for Bobby Fischer", Josh Waitzkin ponders to himself before a tournament he is favored to win. He says, "Maybe it's better not to be the best. Then you can lose and it's okay."

Toymailman, I was thinking about that quote during our tourney. In my mind, you were the favorite going in, just from playing here with you the last couple of years. But being favored and actually putting it all together every week are two different things. You brought your A game all along, and then when you got to the finals, you brought it up another notch to an A+ game. Watching it happen was better than cable.

Kudos, also, to Deteacher, Jifremok, and Vocelli for making the finals. It was long road to get there and you each made a great effort. :thumbsup:

Quick nod to everybody who played and played their best. You made this fun.

Shout out to cparsley for brainstorming the concept.

Big thanks to Jacob for handling the administrative duties. Your dedication to keeping track of all aspects of this tourney was well appreciated. Great Job.


And a final word to Toymailman - we'll all be gunning for you next time. So, enjoy your victory. You deserved it. But next season is coming. ;)

My Enduro games keep ending before day six. But I have concluded that playing Buck Rogers is like weight training for Enduro. If you can get the spaceship between the pylons, you can put the race car pretty much anywhere you need to.
