I always made my goal to be 1000, but I never got past 700 or 800.

My new high score is 11,825. Didn't save a picture 'cause I didn't feel like it. If you don't believe me, that's none of my concern. Just thought I'd put it out there.

I suck at this game so bad and can never break 100, though I haven't played it as much as TROGDOR or the Marshie game. I think I'm due for a lot more "practice sessions".... ;)

Doesn't this game make you want to snap them off all your libs, fry them with peppers and wrap them in a torilla...or am I alone on this one?

Probably not.

I got over a hundred once, but it was really hard. I've beaten Awexome Cross though, so I probably just need practice.

I got a little over 3400 quite recently. I was quite proud of that, so I took a picture.

More on that later. AKA: Never

3111.

Not bad.

Could be better.

I only have photo evidence for a 2462 score, though.

-edit- NEEEEEEEEWWWWWW RECORD! 5137! Beat that! (I know that some of you can and have...)

I has a screenshot of, I think, 3481. Some pretty impressive scores here, like that 11k.

How long does it take to get in the thousands like that? At one per second, 3600 would be an entire hour of Pop Tire...

If you have a 6 multiplier the whole time, it'd be only 10 minutes for 3600 at one hit a second, which makes more sense, since some people are obsessed. And if you play really long, thet multiplier would get even higher, so nobody would really play for an hour.

My best score so far is 5277, but I'd like to keep trying for a higher one, because I really enjoy this game. Somebody will probably make fun of me for this, but I wanted to share a few tips...

- Wait until the Cheat is more than halfway across the screen before you bounce on him, so that you'll have a chance to get him again before he leaves. This way, you can keep bouncing the tire off the same Cheat several times in a row.

- Bouncing off the side wall is a little easier to control than bouncing in the middle of the screen, especially when the wind blows. If the wind blows right, bounce off the right side, and vice versa. Bouncing off the left is good in general because it's easier to get birds. Bouncing off the right can be good if Strong Sad is there--that way you can bounce it right above his thought bubble until something acceptable appears.

- "Fly" and "Big" aren't especially helpful. Fly gives you fewer bounces per minute, and you have to watch carefully so that you don't lose your rhythm when it wears off. Big is mostly harmless, though it makes it slightly harder to avoid cold ones. 2x adds 2 to your multiplier; it doesn't double your multiplier, which I thought it did for awhile.

- Remember that it's better to smash a cold one or even hit a "Sad" than to drop on the floor, so don't get too out of control when the beers start flying (which happens when you have at least 5x).

- Of course, the most important thing is just to have a good mouse. Trying to play with a laptop touch pad thingy is an uphill battle.

I believe that I scored somewhere in the 1500-range years ago, but I haven't played it recently. Still, it is one of the more fun games on the Homestar Runner website.
