Thats a pretty good score for such a fun game. Im sure its because you have a better mouse than most.........
If your into games from the U.K., try this one http://www.richsalter.btinternet.co.uk/

1181. Been playing it for a while elsewhere. There is a full screen version that allows some enormous scores I can't find it though.

Ah, the copter game again. I got addicted to it last time someone posted it, got no work done for ages, and ended up with a top score well over 3000! Now I'm out of practice. And I also have a new, must faster PC, which makes it a whole new ballgame - well, game anyway. I just tried, and couldn't get past about 400, and I'm exhausted. But give me time. I'm snowed in, with not too much else to do....

Dunno about the men and the boys though; how about we members of the other half of the human race.

Snowball: Anyone not fairly fluent in conversational jockanese might struggle.

The Snowballs are hilarious. Some mad Jocks in Aberdeen getting P**sed off with you slammin the balls into their windows!

Another site address for the penguin game mentioned. Fun to play for all sexes and ages! Even Plank Drivers should be able to coordinate a strike once!

Just managed to score 836.

Am I the only person who refers flying over the obstacles to under them, if at all possible?

I drink Guinness....that helps a bit after about 12 pints. I even can understand Scouse then....Geordie sounds better after an equal amount of Nukie Brown !
