Title: Gimme Friction

Another simple, but addictive flash game.
Download here (http://www.slither-gdi.net/friction.swf)
You have an oscillating cannon that fires balls into a playing field. When they stop, they swell until they touch either a wall, the bottom boundary line, or another ball. All balls start with a "3". If the fired ball touches a previously-fired ball before stopping, the previously-fired ball's number is decremented. When the decrement goes to zero, the ball disappears and you score a point. If the fired ball is bounced back to the bottom boundary line, the game is over. It is much harder than it looks.
Example:

The rules:
1) Download the swf file linked above and play on your own machine. (Opens fine for me in IE or Firefox. Having trouble with Chrome.) 2) You must not alter the function of the flash animation in any way. 3) If you have the highest score so far, post a screenshot to the thread. (ASAP, honor system)
I played this a lot a few years ago and the highest I ever got was around 70.
For the person that scores highest that does not already have one by 8 PM Pacific Daylight Time Sunday night, 8/13/17, I have a DK Forum t-shirt:

If you already have one, play along just for fun.

You all are lucky I'm just playing for fun.
The score to beat is still 41.
(And I wasn't sandbagging, either. I just did this.)

Very well, then.
Daniel, PM me your address, in case it has changed since 2014. If you haven't shrunk, you'll still need the same size.
