It involved an orgy of goats, llamas, sheepies, and a few men and women too.

I wanna see the initials YAK on that top spot by next time.

I reckon you'll be scoring 300,000+ soon.

<mum mode>By the way, I "accidentally" left a can of Pledge and a duster by the Space Lords.

That Tempest will need a bit of looking after and remember to turn it off at night / when you're out.</mum mode>

Have fun. We're gonna have the mother of all doubles games when I next see ya.

Yeah, I know I'm not one for dustintg or aught but I am going to look after that beauty the way it deserves

... it will be loved and cherished...

I'll keep practicing and I'm sure I'll get there soon... I learned quite a bit from watching your very controlled and measured style of play... I'll be trying to incorporate a bit of that into my own playing style and hopefully make some more progress

.

Looking forward to that game of doubles

Just to add to the calls: Let's see that handover video!

I also thought this was a story of burglary - but then I got to the important bit.

At the rate people are saying they would have helped if they'd have known (me included) all I can think is that it was a fantastic effort all round. I'd read about Archer's restoration hobby and it's good to see fruits of it - the thing looks perfect.

Best wishes to Yak, Flossie and the Tempest cab.

It's been said many times before, but this really *is* a special place

Here's hoping the cab brings you many hours of joy (and may your scores always be high ones

).

I've got a feeling that bit's pretty much a given!

I'm not yet up to Fuse's standards but I'm not too far off

... in fact I was quite pleased how quick the old skillz came back given that I've been able to play Tempest before now only one day in about the last 12 years

Now when you do Tempest 4000, you have no excuse not to include the original levels in tact.

Is that the hidden sub-game in Unity then?

I've no idea how I missed this thread ealier but-

Congratulations all! Congrats on coming up with such a nice surprise for Yak, congrats to the Yak for his amazingly lovely new toy, and a spare set of preliminary congratulations to Yak again for his eventual domination of the high score board.

Like so many others have said, if I'd known I'd have contributed. It's just such a perfect place for such a perfect game to go.
