Nice one, that's within a few hundred points of my best...I'm still trying to beat 250k, but either the game is a bitch or I fluff it every time I get close.

Come on Alex, Tony will be drifting past you next!

Hey James, DK on-line open Jan 7th - 11th if you fancy it?

Would be cool to have you on side.

Well done Tony, 100k is a nice bench mark sir and progress is indeed progress. Don't forget, once you reach level 5 the difficulty is maxed out. the barrel boards are easier than levels 3/4 but the problem is the fireballs speed is rapid for the rest of the game.

That score still only puts me in 52nd! I guess it's now time to learn how to use the bottom hammer reliably and start pressing for big numbers.

Here's the breakdown of my KS game, the last man took me through 60 boards including the killscreen

A question for the floor; how much "throw" should there be on a DK joystick?

Mine feels quite tall, so the distance from left to right, and from up to down, is quite long. I'm wondering if the four way plate is worn out?

Also the microswitches are pretty firm on the buttons, and again, the throw distance and firmness of the buttons are pretty high. So the gameplay feels rather notchy rather than smooth if that makes sense. Normal?

Difficult to say Tony, but the correct shafts are short. Maybe some pics would help sort out right from wrong? I guess you could measure the height from the Control Panel to top of the ball. Or like you said, there could be some wear on the plate. Notchy doesn't sound great though, I gather it was cleaned out with a bubble overload when it was restored?

My joystick measures 3.75 cm from control panel to the top of the ball. Throw is 1 cm in each direction.

The disc is no longer there.

I'll have a measure up tomorrow TT, my tape measure is in the Van. Nothing is worn which is a bonus and the Joystick looks ok height wise but it's hard to tell if it's ' long ' or not?

Removing the disc was a good call sir.
