scored 200 even - in the air...

JDMcNugent7 07-04-07 01:15 AM

someone bet me on pacman, or pacman and some game of your choice to make it even.

Talking Poker 07-04-07 01:32 AM

What kind of bet do you want to make? Obviously Tetris is my strongest game.

Talking Poker 07-04-07 02:25 AM

New Games!

Chicken Fling (how can that not be fun?) and Nintendo's Duck Hunt.

Edit: OK, the Chicken Fling isn't the fun after all. Meh.

Robbie Robb 07-04-07 02:50 AM

so apparently i'm good at the useless games like chicken fling... go figure.

JDMcNugent7 07-04-07 03:03 AM

like $100 for like 3 tries at pacman and ms. pacman and I give u some kind of point handicap on the overall score.

sound good?

stormswa 07-04-07 11:38 AM

HOWD do you shoot the ducks in duck hunt?

Talking Poker 07-04-07 11:46 AM

Three tries to beat your high score? Or we each play three times and add up the scores and compare them?

The only problem with this is the arcade is set up to only log our highest scores, so we'd have to play and record scores on the honor system.

Talking Poker 07-04-07 11:46 AM

Put your mouse on them and click.

stormswa 07-04-07 11:57 AM



so obvious that its hard to figure out? ;)


thank you.

Talking Poker 07-04-07 12:34 PM

I just realized.... We could probably set up "tournaments" for stuff like this. We should do a practice one first to make sure it will give us all the info we need for the bet at the end.

I see kirk is trying to get a Frogger tourney going.

juiCe[3x] 07-04-07 02:07 PM

Well i Just played my 3 games inteh Frogger tournament and somethings wrong. It says my best score is 0 when i got 6k, 16k and 17k....

Talking Poker 07-04-07 11:40 PM

I FINALLY figured out how to Rate games.

First, click on "Add as Favorite" for the game (do this for all of them). Then click on "Your Favorites" and on THAT page, and apparently ONLY on that page, you can rate each game.

If you guys could do this for as many games as possible (rate them all, and rate new games as I add them), we should have decent average ratings for the whole arcade. After we get enough ratings, I'll change the default sorting to put the highest rated games at the top.

After you rate each game, you can remove some or all of them from Your Favorites page and the rating will stay.

Good stuff.

FINALLY.... I tried bribing him with food, but in the end, it took repeated beatings to get my Yeti to hit that bastard penguin far enough to claim the top spot.

Well, I say "top spot," since it shows me as #1 in a three way tie for first, but I guess only one of us gets the icon, and it's not me. :mad:

Talking Poker 07-05-07 02:30 PM

For those of you who like a little blood in your video games, the arcade now features:

Doom (very simple version - don't get too excited)
Kill Kenny (Should be called "Don't Kill Kenny")

Zybomb 07-05-07 02:43 PM

I can grab the shotgun in Kill Kenny, but its always pointed to the side -- I know how to shoot it (click on keny) but how do I aim it at the guys? I got my highscore without any shotgun hits

de-coder 07-05-07 02:46 PM

use the arrow keys - I still have a hard time with the gun. I got 2 hits on my score for 2000 points.

Zybomb 07-05-07 02:48 PM

I saved Kenny and got two shotgun hits!

Talking Poker 07-05-07 02:59 PM

The shotgun is cool, but I haven't figure out how to aim it....?

Ahhh, I see now. Arrow keys. Gotcha.

de-coder 07-05-07 03:13 PM

doesn't anybody read the instructions anymore?

JDMcNugent7 07-05-07 04:16 PM

okay someone bet me on pacman or ms pacman today.

$100 if u beat my high score today on either, $75 to me if at midnight i still have both high scores.

who wants to?

Talking Poker 07-05-07 04:19 PM

Will you be playing more (to improve your score)? If not, and if you make it $50/$100 instead of $75/$100, I'll take the action.

FWIW, I'm heading out the door right now and probably won't be able to play for more than an hour (maybe 90 mins) or so between now and midnight.

JDMcNugent7 07-05-07 04:30 PM

I might play more, if i see someone beats my high score and I have time to play I def will. I'm not playing now and its not like I'm gonna be sitting here playing all day. I'm going to a club then spending the night at a ladyfriends ill be gone all night.

and even tho this has to be -ev ill make it 60/100 since im gonna be gone all night 60 has to be good.

Talking Poker 07-05-07 05:27 PM

OK, I'll do it. Midnight ET, I assume. If it's your time, that's more time that I'll be able to play. :)

I'm not sure which score to go for (first). I like Ms. Pacman better, so probably that one. Then again, I really want that Pacman icon in my posts, so maybe I'll go for that one.

Or maybe I'll school you in both just for kicks!

GL me.

P.S. Have fun with your ladyfriend...

Talking Poker 07-05-07 06:57 PM

Got it. I think it was my fourth try.

And I'm so mad at myself for dying like an idiot in the end too. I literally died, then got 0 more points and died again (my final guy), just a few dots away from finishing the level.
