Impressive record you set at pacman, i can't get used to playing with the arrowkeys, i'm used to controlsticks. I used to made it easily to the 14th or 15th key in Pacman, using the same route over and over again, but that's impossible with a keyboard.

I'm usually quite rubbish at Pac-man, but I dunno. I think I got lucky.

I guess it is, you should see me playing NBA Live after a couple of sixpacks, i pull one amazing alley oop after another out of the hat, something i can't seem to do when i'm completely sober. That's why i only play EA Sportsgames while intoxicated, seriously.

Only please don't add any games that have a limited highest possible score you can get.

That would apply to several games to my knowledge, Yeti Longshot being one of them. At a certain time there were 5 people with the highest score on the site where i played it, and it never got broken again, so that must have been the limit. I believe the same goes for a golfgame called Powerdriver.

OMG! I almost beat the top score in Tetris and when I finally died I got the following error

"This score was not submitted from the game. Your score will not be saved"

Yep, that happened to me a lot too on the other board i mentioned. In order to avoid that, you should never play any game right after finishing one, instead either leave the arcade for a moment, and then reenter, or resfresh once or twice. Some games have a "go back" option, which allows you to quickly restart a game, but if you do that, there's a good chance you get that sort of messages like you just had.
