3hrs a day and you cant break 500,000? :shock:

you realize to get the world record you have to PLAY FOR SCORE, right?

Oh man is this thread serious? I think this guy is just making some sort of weird joke.
On the first page he said he played the game like hell for the last month and he can't even finish stage 2 or score 500k???

i don't mean to be discouraging but you suck and your thread sucks

the dumb image macros are flooding in now, so let me throw in another vote to lock this.
I haven't actively browsed/used this forum in many years and it's no longer an accurate representation of me.

I have retired from genre-specific content creation after 13 years, but I'll always love this little genre in my own personal way.

BTW:

The best place to look for WR scores is Twin Galaxies.

And yes, you (the OP) suck (no offense) :lol:

what i dont get is you are 19 right?

how old were you when wolfenstein came out?...i find it odd that you play that game...

you had to have been like what 5?

or did it take you 14 years to develop the uber-skills you have now?

I just fired up UD for the first time in what must be a year now and got to 1-3 with a higher score than the one you have in the high score thread. I hate to sound rude or whatever but I'm not even good at UD, I hardly play it, I have no delusion that I'm going to even 1cc it (I just don't care enough, there's other games I enjoy more). What's more, UD is a tough game, it gets pretty darn hard in the late stages. I just don't think you're being realistic at all when you say you'll go for the world record score.

But please, prove us all wrong and post back here after a year or two of constant daily play with a world record score.

The irony is that if the thread does get locked it will be because of those people acting like idiots, not because of lilmanjs himself.
No matter how good a game is, somebody will always hate it. No matter how bad a game is, somebody will always love it.

I am in agreement with these posts…

The behavior displayed here as well as through out these forums is horrible and such a shame…

I'd believe it. I once heard of a deaf, dumb, blind kid, who sure played a mean pinball.

Or that blind kid that would beat all his friends at Tekken. (He actually did. I think it had something to do with him just paying good attention to the sound clues.)

The really bad thing about this thread is that some of the worst offenders are regulars. No wonder a lot of the really old timers never seem to post here anymore.

this thread is a joke.....buddy sux at the game but is looking to score the WR

he's asking to get slammed....especially 'scoffing' at real scores set by skilled players.....

should we help further disillusion him by encouraging him?

I tend to agree. There are 2 points I would like to make:
  1. Contrary to what you were told in elementary school, everyone is NOT a winner.
  2. This is the internet. Flames get thrown back and forth. It's to be expected.
All of that being said, I would love to see this kid try. I would love it even more if he made me eat my words. It would be one of those great inspirational stories. Kinda like the movie Rudy.
