Lol, we'll see. @guillavoie is still hiding in the bushes somewhere too. Don't count him out. He's used to moving his hands very fast, when his pants are around his ankles. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He likely had multiple visits to the school nurse trying to explain away those mysterious "rugburns". Edited June 14, 2020 by Bearcat-Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he was as much of a trash talker as you, these Homebrew threads would be blowing up too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a very particular set of skills that I have acquired over a very long career, skills that you can't keep up with in any contest thread. If he wants to snipe you instead of trash talking you, it still ends up with you losing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It probably takes something in the 170 range to max out the power bar in that game. Track & Field plays with only one button though, and while this might sounds trivial, this change a lot the technique involved in mashing the buttons. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think 180+ is very elite. I made another attempt and landed at 183. Two shy so I've not bothered to post it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still use my thumb and I'm pretty sure @BriGuy82 lays the controller flat and uses his fingers, so that makes a difference too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it is a completely different technique. @Bearcat-Doug is right, for track and field I would lay the controller flat and strum the buttons. With this it's two thumbs and hyper tapping as if playing tetris. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've tried your Track & Field method and it just doesn't work for me. Edited June 16, 2020 by Bearcat-Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My 178 is gonna be it for me. I doubt I could do much better anyway. Does this game have sound by the way? If it doesn't you should add some music and like a bell when ten seconds is up. In the beginning I wasn't even looking at the screen. It would be good a cue that 10 seconds is up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
