This completely. Out of the three, Solipskier seems to be the most random. I've just lucked out on something that seems reasonable, so my efforts will now go elsewhere.

But.... you're posting.

:shock:

From my phone :?

It sprang into life a second ago and then died again :cry:


Any chance your with BT? I know me and Staydead have been having problems with BT recently, think a few others have too.

I'm with virgin media, just on hold with customer support now :(

If my Internet doesn't come back up I am legit out of the competition.

Christ, when Solipskier doesn't bother throwing you any tunnels it's so sodding boring :fp:

If my run didn't start with a tunnel I'd restart it until it did. :lol:


Off out now, and won't be back until gone midnight so will have to wait until then to see the results. Best of luck to everyone (on Team Drumstick :P )

Well, submitted. Apologies in advance to my team for my relatively average to shite scores. I knew my stroke of luck from the first task wouldn't last :fp:

Boggles the mind how Robot Unicorn Attack got so popular. Up until this task I hadn't touched a flash game for 5 or 6 years. It's good to see they haven't changed since then :|

iOS games > Flash games (unless we're talking Angry Birds)

I'm happy enough with my scores that I think I'll hand them in soon. I think it's late enough in the day to reveal my putting tactics: I figured out the top possible score and have been pushing hard to get as close to it as possible. Managed to get pretty close, but I know I can do better. I just don't have time.

I think it's 4ch*n that has a boner over that game. Erasure's Always is one of the highest requested songs for Rock Band because of it :lol:

Can we get a Rock Band round? Half of my team would ace it :cry:

I would personally be in favour of an Innistrad Draft round. I think I'd do well.

Outbox status indicates Lizzy has received my pitiful scores. Maybe Task 3 (and the twist) will be my redeemer.

So many people are bluffing like a boss here. "Oh, look at how gooseberry fool my scores are! Last place is assured! Woe is me!" Bollocks. I bet at least one of these folk has a top five score. :lol:

Internet has fixed itself, almost immediately after booking an engineer to 'look at my modem'. FFS. What were they going to do to my modem exactly?

Anyway, no more excuses, it's clobbering time
