Alright Al! I'll not been able to play properly for a while, I know I can kill screen if I put in the hours, I'm going to try and play when I can and hopefully I'll be back on the big scores!

Just had my best score on DK, playing a couple of games every other day is paying off, staying much calmer.

189, 700 - did this using the upload kit so just behind Olly

Staying calm does seem to be the answer! I've got all my best scores when I'm just working through a game and not watching the score...as soon as I notice it's going well I tend to get a bit twitchy

The twitching as I saw 200k coming was what made me do something stupid on the rivet board

Nicely done Eric!

I'm a comp at the mo over on DKF. Managed 414,500 at just over 1M pace but it's a real struggle playing against those guys.

But yeah, staying calm and patience are key. Easier said than done!!

Only advice is not to look at the score too much. Not that I follow my this advice; I've suffered a a good few milestone twitches myself lately.

Great score though.

New personal best for me tonight:

3D225901-A003-49D6-8D14-A596FEE0BA08_zps5vjmwns8.jpg


Managed 184k on my first man - lost that around level 8 on a barrel screen. Think I got screwed, nothing much I could have done about it.

Lost 2 lives on level 10 elevators - annoyed about that.

Final life went on level 12 rivets. Not an ideal pattern, but could have / should have been able to deal with it. Concentration started to slip by that point.

Still - it's progress !

Great score

I've not made any progress on my own best, I've fallen in to the psychological trap of noticing when I've got very close to my top score during a game, then starting to play extra safe or a bit panicky and my game goes to sh*t.

Nowhere near as good as most of you lot.
I don't really play DK much really, so this is an insane score from me.

Played on my NAC. Lost 2 silly lives on rivet board due to stick being set to 8-way.

Never really been sure if I like the game. I always say I don't, but then I'm drawn to it occasionally...
