What's your high score on this? 177 here. Cold ones are annoying. Anyone know if Fly does anything? Or the other things Strong Sad says? I know Big does..

I've gotten high scores in the high 400s, low 500s before, but only if I really concentrate. Of course, I'll need actual proof of this, so I'll have to work on it for a bit here...

I'll be back later with some photographic evidence, so to speak.

As for what Fly does, it makes your tire bounce ridiculously high. I mean, you barely touch it and it goes flying. It's actually pretty useful since it makes juggling the tire that much easier. The only other things I know that Strong Sad says are -2x (which reduces your multiplier by -2, obviously), +2x (opposite of -2x) and Sad, which makes you lose ALL of your multipliers.

Oh, I wondered what Sad did. Thanks for the information.

New highscore! I had a 12x multiplier up there at one point.

Birds, Cheats, and balloons just kept coming up. My multiplier soared.

Here's a thread for high scores on bhz. Try and beat The Chort's score.

my best is 294, but pictures wont help, because I can easily make it look like I got 2494 or something... I'll try and get a really high one.

Nah, it's easy to see if someone photoshopped it or not.

Photoshop? Here's something I spent less than a minute on in Paint. It's actually very easy to produce realistic doctored high scores.

I meant "photoshopped" as a figure of speech more than the actual application. Since most people I know use Photoshop, I just assumed it was the same with most other people.

Beat this: 1000+!!!!! I'm not kidding, but I got it a few months ago (gotta be REALLY bored to do this) and hence didn't bother to get a pic. Well The Chort got 1530, but that's not THAT much higher. I think my score was 1022, had a +19 multiplier at a point but smashed a few cold ones. Also done a 600, not sure what other high scores are. After I lost there was a plane that flew buy saying something like "Nice job!"

A great trick is to keep using The Cheat. When he walks left, wait til he's almost left and bounce it off his head. He'll reverse direction, then do the same when he's almost at the right, and so on until he leaves the screen (with each hit he speeds up).

Yeah photoshopped (or just 'shopped) is just an expression for any image editing. With homestar stuff it's easy to alter since it's, well, not real. I could put Strong Bad in front of my computer if I wish

A few days ago I got 1,666, though I didn't think to save the image for proof.
Has anyone beaten that?

For some reason, I've always liked Population Tire, even though it's probably the simplest game on the site.

Anydangway, I've only gotten to about 300 or so.

I think the simplest game was either that lite brite thingy or bronco trolleys.

I can see that the Stinkoman avis are catching on.

My new Population Tire high score is 8002. I had X40 once or twice.
This is the best day of my life.

My personal best is about 560 something. I've only recorded up to 150 though.
