There were no announcements of a kill screen coming up.  But considering who Brian was on the phone with, it was quite a deja vu moment...

So Billy Mitchell was on the other end?  This call may have been more deflating than the Steve Wiebe call.  Mitchell already had broken Steve Wiebe's score, but Lakeman's 1.158 million score is 33k higher than Mitchell's rumored high score.  Any ideas of getting back that record back went down big time with that call.

Thanks everyone for the kind words and support.  It's been a crazy 36 hours I got into Phoenix last night.  I just managed to highlight my game here on Twitch http://www.twitch.tv/lakeman421/v/6606915 and just got it onto Youtube here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tMv3mEaijGU

Great article Chris!  I look forward to seeing everyone at KO4.

Congratulations Robbie on such a big score boost!  Very well deserved. 

In an effort to avoid derailing this thread too much I wanted to share a couple of semi-related thoughts here. . .

Thanks Dean for the kind words and support! You are really spot on with my approach to the learning experience I've had with DK. I took the game in baby steps and focused on one certain aspect at a time since it fits with my personality. The last part of my game that I had been working on was dumping barrels as little as possible and trying to find points where I can find them on the pie and rivet boards. In the end it really helped with my pace even with such a low start(Paying for each credit is a pain!!!) It had even got me more motivation to play more since progress is always encouraging. I'm not sure how much I'll play in the future, but I am still far from reaching my personal potential(Without torturing myself too badly Kappa)which I am excited to find out what that is.
