recently I've developed the nasty habit of quitting a game if I think I've lost too many lives to advance the position of my Resume Best, and in extreme cases, abandoning a game if I think I should be able to complete a particular level without losing any lives... obviously I still have to complete each level legitimately, but this tactic is quite effective in increasing my Resume Best position (and score)

so are scores achieved in this way acceptable, or should I kill this player profile and start again?
I say "who gives a monkeys?!" post your score up, honest, we won't laugh!

I'm glad this thread's been bumped up, cos I'd forgotten about it.

Anyway, after many months, and playing GR++SE, here's my normal GR++ score table:

okay, here it is... for comparison, my highest score from the start with no resumes is about half the size of this

Oh. My. Goat.

Fuckaduck, them's some impressive scores

What level are you up to there? 3rd time round, I guess?

Once again:

ROFLMFAO!

The highest level I've ever managed to get to is level 26 (from Resume Best at level 18 ).

If I try to play through from the start I might get to the high teens.

Well, you're doing better than me... last time I tried from scratch I only made about 9... and my replay score is about 35!

Just had a go from the start (which I haven't done for a while) and managed to get to level 17.

Baastard level 16 cost me nine lives.

I just realised that you were talking about levels, and I was reading it thinking score...

Just had a game, my first in aaaaages... 10.8 million, level 27. Angel Dust, Third Eye and Basingstoke fucked me over royally

I must admit that the first few levels seemed awfully slow compared to playing GR++SE.

I now play SE rather than GR++, just to hear the swearing.

Me, juvenile? Nahhhh.

What's the SE version that you chaps are talking about?

I've only been playing for less than a week, and must say that i've got a little way to go yet before I can post a hiscore worthy of the ol' board

The SE (Arse On Fire Edition) was a version of GR++ given away by Jeff at one of the Jollies.

It includes a bigger display area, a survival mode and is much, MUCH, harder!

It also has new SFX recorded at the jolly which includes things like samples of everyone shouting "Minter, You CUNT!" when you die (and many others)!

I love the sound of THAT version

Do you think there's any chance that Yak might sell one a copy if one would donate some cash to the fund
