Starting to get the hang of the grey board, but I still die a ton.  Still a 28 board improvement over the better of my other 2 practice runs, so I'm happy.

First, off.   Yippee!  I got badges now.  Err, your under arrest! ;D

Second, off.  Very good game play Ben.   I thoroughly enjoyed the replay of that 2 million game.  Best DK3 game I have seen that was not my own. :)  Yep, you definitely have the potential to pull off a repetitive bluescreen.  One thing though.  You might want to start thinking about saving your games pretty soon.  You are starting pass the 3 board levels without dying.

Just saw bits, and pieces of the replay of your DK3 stream.  Thanks for giving it the old college try.  One tip though for future DK3 play.  Don't ever use the super spray on the gray boards.  That's a big time no no.

Oh, wow, that is as close as it gets.  Congrats on that.  Big time congrats.  Ben just got 3,071,800 on Donkey Kong 3, and was 6 boards away from the bounty.  Huge, Huge, Huge!

Wow, just watch the stream.  You had 3 men left when you hit board 150.  Very close indeed! I would advise anyone to catch Ben's next stream.  Very good odds he does it on his very next game.

Thanks!  Talk about close there.  I had one guy in reserve on stage 158 and decided to kill myself in order to get the super spray to boost past 159.  I forgot about the bee rushing me at the beginning of the stage and almost botched it.  Thanks to George and all the generous people who contributed to the bounty.  I really, really appreciate it.  I lost my last guy on stage 160 with a score of 3,163,700.

Congrats on that!  Yippee!  On board 158 you came very close to running into that worm right below you.  Had you moved Stanley a couple of pixels more to the left into the worm, and this would have been an entirely different story.

Also Ben becomes the very first person ever to reach the Killscreens in Donkey Kong, and Donkey Kong Junior, and the Repetitive bluescreen.  Which is yet another cool accomplishment for Ben!

Some people were saying that I set the bar too high with my bounty.  I knew better though.  Too many great gamers not to set it that high, and Teign on MARP basically did everything but bluescreen the game, and so anything lower like getting to 3 million would have been something that was already done before.  Congrats again Ben!  Glad to someone else reach the Bluescreen club! 8)

P.S. I'll message you to get your address so I can send you the TG token, and autographed cards on my part.  Not as cool as all that moolah though. 8)


All those who offered bounties I would suggest to contact Ben on whatever payment arrangements he is cool with. 8)
