The only time that I like to play Venture is when I'm stoned out of my
tree, because then I DON'T FEEL LIKE SMASHING THIS GOD-FORSAKEN GAME
AND MY COMPUTER AND EVERYTHING THAT I CAN FIND PERIPHERALLY ATTATCHED
THAT MIGHT HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE CONTROLS WHICH ARE LESS
RESPONSIVE THAN THREE OUT OF MY LAST FOUR GIRLFRIENDS!!!
<p>
Thank you for listening to this vent.

And no, don't ask the obvious question, please.

I tried with unlimited men too, because I realized the game was so
hard nobody had ever seen the end(?) in the arcade. I failed, think I
made dungeon 5 but I'm not sure (I was using MAME 30 & chip revision
1 - it's been a while). The game, despite other people's (including
at least one book from the time) claims, does not move in predictable
patterns. I don't think it's possible to beat the demon room (dungeon
3) except by luck, so I'm sending a heartfelt "bullshit" to anyone
claiming higher than 100k. I'm not absolutely certain even that's
possible.

My opinion is revised somewhat. I still don't believe the very high
scores, but if a theory I have (no, I'm not going to post it yet, and
I probably won't regardless) turns out to be correct 100k probably is
possible.
