I hit a couple of micro PBs before this game (798k, 801k) so was happy to breakthrough especially as it was my first proper credits with arcade controls (played briefly at Kencade and Funspot in 2018)

Thanks!

Wow, 1 million!!!  Big! Big! Big!!!!!!  Huge congrats.  Didn't see this until now.

I was doing so well until 700k, and then lost my way with the next gold board.

Goal achieved! RBS was never the original plan, I've just been having fun playing DK3 again beginning last month, but once I got some practice in, I wanted to see if I could get there. Came pretty close with a 3-million game last weekend, so I'm very happy to have finished the task today. Think that'll do me for D4...at least for now! 

[homerwannabee]

Simply amazing scores!
You finished the last true holy grail of Donkey Kong 3!

omg wow
woooooooooooooow
Two fantastic WR scores and the first D4 RBS ever! Verified and updated on Jason's DK3-D4 Blog!

For those following along at home, reaching the Repetitive Blue Screen (board 160) has never been achieved on Difficulty 4/Hardest...not even by the greatest DK3 player in history, George Riley. Quite an achievement, sir. And, for the record, your 870k 5-man score occurred during a marathon game in which you actually beat your previous D4 Marathon WR...a week ago lol.

The first five deaths in the 870k 5-man game were:
497,200
523,200
650,700
846,800
870,000

With a final score of: 2,758,600

For comparison, the first five deaths in the 3.27M game were:
213,800
384,500
473,200
505,600
569,300

With a final score of: 3,274,400, ending on board 161.

Also, regarding my calculations on the potential RBS score for a D4 RBS game:

-Barra's 2.2M game ends on board 112, 70% of the way to the RBS. 2,202,000 is 70% of 3,145,714.29.
-Riley's 2.4M game ends on board 124, 77.5% of the way to the RBS. 2,407,400 is 77.5% of 3,106,322.58.
-JV's 2.5M game ends on board 125, 78.125% of the way to the RBS. 2,506,400 is 78.125% of 3,208,192.

Average of those three calculations is 3,153,409.62. So it looks like a D4 RBS score will be in about the same range as the other difficulties...maybe a hair lower?

Your score going into the RBS was 3,230,300...way ahead of my shitty prediction. How.

Anyway, what's left? D1 5-man RBS? D1 marathon WR? No, you're right...Jr. Pac normal speed WR.

ggs sir. Can't wait to see what game you destroy next.

Thanks very much Jry, not only for the kind words, but for all the work you do for us as well!

And, for the record, your 870k 5-man score occurred during a marathon game in which you actually beat your previous D4 Marathon WR...a week ago lol.

Haha, yeah that game kinda fell apart in the second half, and I knew I could do better - I don't usually submit until I know I'm done with that game/difficulty.

The first five deaths in the 870k 5-man game were:
497,200
523,200
650,700
846,800
870,000

With a final score of: 2,758,600

For comparison, the first five deaths in the 3.27M game were:
213,800
384,500
473,200
505,600
569,300

Huge difference in starts, obviously - I almost reset this credit with how meh the first 5 men were, but then I had a huge 6th man, and decided to see it through (thankfully).

Your score going into the RBS was 3,230,300...way ahead of my shitty prediction. How.

I was wrong on this as well - like you, I thought it would be lower. I guess Barra was right in that the blue boards I couldn't clear with the super spray inflated my overall score.

Anyway, what's left? D1 5-man RBS? D1 marathon WR? No, you're right...Jr. Pac normal speed WR.

Think I'm going to play a bit of D3 while I'm still in shape, just to see what I can put up...not sure I'll grind that out the way I did for the D4 scores, though. Oh, and yes of course, the Jr. Pac normal speed WR after that - thanks for the reminder

Oh awesome, that's a fantastic score.  Another record!  I also had a cheap death in my 1.3 million game. So I know how that goes.
