I'm addicted to this game but I can't get more than 5 in a row.

Ok I'm addicted -- thanks Doug! LOL

My best is 6 so far ----- but who knows what tomorrow will bring!

This is why I gave up with Pong!

Jill: 6??!! You're way to good.

TwinbNJ · #4 01-10-2004, 10:30 PM

Nah -- it's all that sailing my husband is making me do! LOL

EDIT: and don't let Jean tell you she helped me!

TwinANJ · #5 01-10-2004, 10:30 PM

OK I have to stop!!! The best to date is two. I knew I was in trouble when I smashed my hand into the screen of my computer to choke the little $&*@!^$!

Yes Jill really did get 6 (with my help)

Doug,

My wife wanted to thank you for keeping me out of her hair!

I got 5 a couple of times, then I finally got 6. I thought that was great until I saw one guy had 113!! He's gotta get a life.

This one is a tad bit disturbing, but the little guy doesn't seem to mind.

My best so far is 315ft

Click once to launch, click again to swing.

Ed_L · #8 01-31-2004, 03:31 PM

I got 322.9, but like all home run hitters, I struck out a number of times.

Cute...I like to hear the penguin go "Weeee". My best is 320.5. I especially like it when the penguin skips across the snow.

CJ Swartz · #10 01-31-2004, 10:20 PM

In the penguin "batting" game, my best was 319.3, but most of the time he ends up head first in the snow at about 200 ft. I like the shuffling game -- I sometimes prefer to send him spinning rather than trying to plunk him into the water.

This is great -- another reason not to vacuum!

Try this little addiction.... good part is that it resets quickly

Ron -- how did you get two penguins at once? I only know how to abuse one at a time...

rondon · #15 02-17-2004, 02:37 PM

those are the ones I missed
