Stats and video added to this post, which also acts as the verification of this score. INP is too large to attach, but has been reviewed and is the source for the video. Pause/speed information has been supplied by QAOP Spaceman and adheres to DKF rules.

Congratulations, John!

I haven't viewed the performance, as the video is only available to RU donors.

Please tell me there's at least one "stella jump" in there.   8)

Hold up!...this was achieved at Retro Uprising...so that makes me the best Donkey Kong player in the Universe.  So the bigwigs who run this joint, please correct the High Score List to reflect that fact.  Kappa

Thank you all for the kind words.

Oh, and can someone provide me (not an RU donor at the moment) with the proper file(s) ASAP (INP, etc.)?; I should probably submit this score to Twin Galaxies and MARP, and I would like the dates to match across the board...hey, I laughed.  8)


Made it,  <Tim>!  Top of the world!

For perspective: 4 years ago, the arcade world record was 1,090,400. (Hank bumped it up in May that year to 1,110,100.)

It's pretty remarkable that within the space of 9 days, Jwade and Jason both got a score that would have beaten the record in 2012. At the time, only Hank, Dean, and Jeff Willms were anywhere near capable of 1.1, and, since Kong Off 2 was approaching, DK was actually getting more play in those days than it is now.

At the time, 1.1 was hardcore, no-way amazeballs, 1,050 was considered an exceptional score, and even a flat 1M was enough to get you your own cab at the Kong Off 2.

Nowadays, these newest 1.1s, which again, would have been big enough just 4 years ago to beat the arcade WR, are a mere 8th and 9th place!

It's been an amazing thing to watch this game evolve. :)
