    goodn Its only taken me 30 years

    But this week I broke a million on Pacman. Played on Wolfmame, 3 lives, difficulty normal. Roughly screen 85, game time about an hour and a half.
    Rather pleased with myself

    Not sure really, the Twin Galaxies site has been down for a while....There arent a lot of people in the world able to get such a score, but there are 5 or 6 people who have scored the theoretical maximum score, the "perfect pacman", which is not going to be possible for me. Whilst I will be able to get to the split screen, as the pattern from the 9th key onwards is exactly the same for every screen on, I basicaly use survival up to that 9th key, rather than point scavenging, as I am just not good enough to get that 1600 on every power pellet up to then.
    I would estimate I could get around maybe 3.2 million, whereas the maximum possible is about 3.3.

    Congrats dude, quite the achievement. Still not sure why I keep you around on my leaderboards, ruining my life...
