Title: Al Jones gets first killscreen! 874,500
Post by: xelnia on December 14, 2014, 07:24:45 am: Congrats mate! I'm watching the replay and the echo makes it sound like you're in a giant arcade full of DK machines. ;D

What's your next goal?

Post by: Jonesy on December 14, 2014, 07:28:36 am: Wow thanks man! Kreygasm

That echo is terrible! Haha, an Arcade full of DK's sounds ok to me!!

Well, i'll keep playing and try and improve on my score I guess...the pressure is off now though.

Post by: Xermon54 on December 14, 2014, 07:33:46 am: Kongrats mate! I'm happy I got the chance to see your first kill scren BibleThump

I didn't know your name before, but since now you have a kill screen, you are not worthy of remembering your name, Al Jones Kappa

Hope to see future good scores from you! Dat 650k PB to 870k improvement hype!

And yeah, the echo on your stream was Kreygasm Kappa

On a side note, even if the achievement is definitely less important nowadays, you've still beaten Billy Mitchell's score of 1982 by 200 points. Yer buddy!

Not sure about the Trifecta badge sir, DK3 not really my game but it would be a challenge for sure. I'd like to KS Junior but i'd prefer 1M points on DK Kreygasm

Hey Vincent, that safe level 21-1 bottom hammer grab was for you, I felt you were probably bored watching some guy running boards! ;) Oh yer buddy!!!!

My guess is that Jon Mckinnell was the first.

We now have the impressive UK tag team of "Fast Eddie" and "Big Al".

Sure, Jon did indeed grab a KS some time ago and I think his PB is up around 1.25M?

Jon is in Scotland, i'm in England and pretty happy to be up there with Jon representing DK in the UK.

There aren't many DK players in the UK, the next one from me is Ben 'Arnthestampede' on here, he grabbed 727,100 (L20-6) a few weeks ago. After that score we have 389,300.

Cheers Phil, We share the same name, he's Allen, i'm Allan......I hope he gets there, it's killing him haha!!

Not heard of this guy? Happy to hear of another DK player in the UK though. On UKVAC we have a high score table going, he needs to get on there! 8)

You're close. You just need to insert a zero between the decimal point and the "2" (1.025M).

You might want to perform that edit before Dean starts to panic. ;)

I would have guessed you were the first Brit to a KS! But good to know that there are now two.

Post by: stv71 on December 14, 2014, 05:06:10 pm: Kongrats Al! That's the first first-time kill screen since August. There's plenty of room left in the kill screen class of 2014, who's gonna be next?

Post by: BillyGaines on December 14, 2014, 07:38:51 pm: Congrats! I noticed that Billy Mitchell's WR from 1982 was 874,300. That record lasted for 18 years. A lot of tokens and quarters were dropped into Donkey Kong back in the day. It's easy to overlook scores that aren't Kong Off standard these days, but the reality is that a score which would have been the world record 14 years ago is still very awesome. I can't wait to know the feeling of Killscreening Donkey Kong. You are now L=22 badged up!
