Not sure if I'll do any better, so I'll submit this one for now (unfortunately, I missed the Kung Fu Master one)
score was 228,751. I had it here, but realized it's supposed to be uploaded to the scoreboard, so I did that instead :)

Well,maybe i don't know well Phoenix.but something strange happen in my last attempt:
As usual i do the 200k bonus trick at second stage,then continue my game until reaching the third loop/first stage where before the end of it my score decrease from 220k to 204k 8O !!

Does Anyone knows about it?
And if this is normal there is a way to fix it while playing or something??

Thanks in advance.

i have had that also. i remember it happening before i uploaded to tg. it's a bug. if we can con the program into giving us 200,000 points, it's only fair it steals some back!!

You probably shot 3 birds in a row again. I've done that before by mistake. It's not actually giving you 200K when you do that, it's setting your score to 204K. So if you do it again later in the game, your score will be set to 204K again. You can also do this on a 2 player game to an unsuspecting player 1 :twisted: After player 1 gets the 204K and hopefully plays awhile, if player 2 does the 3 bird trick, it'll reset player 1's score back to 204K. (player 2 can't take advantage of the 3 bird trick for his own score)

edit: Just watched your INP, that's exactly what happened. On the 1st board on the 3rd set, you shot 3 of the flying birds going back up, and it reset your score back to 204K.

The trick 200k you can do as many times as you like, just that every time the score back to 204k ....
Once I accidentally happened to 550K ..............

Well..I see,thanx CrazyKongFan for the advice,i'll haven't notice this before and was convinced that the trick can be made only at 1st board/2nd stage.

OMG!! luckily i'll never play a two player game,especially when Phoenix was still in the arcades..

At 550k ? Heh, I would have powered off the f#$%ing computer :lol:

It happened to me on the falcon clone at over 250k and I recall swearing a lot...
