Dean got a start of 142,300 in his 1,186,700 game: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zqkoIJ9kpn0

That is the highest of his that I can presently find.

I could  be mistaken but didn't Dean get a 148k start like a week or two ago?

Dean did get a 148,600 start recently. I'm on my phone right now so I I'm not sure if he made a highlight (or even saved the INP). I downloaded the video though so it can be restreamed at some point if need be.

I didn't know about Dean's recent 148k start, but he did have another 148k start a few years back, I believe.

Kristian's new PB has been verified:  317,500 on 06/24/2014  (Level 9-6).

The  Donkey Kong High Score List  has been updated.

Congratulations, Kristian!  You marched 30% of the way to the KS on your first man, surviving 35 consecutive boards.  That has to be a confidence builder.

By the way, the video quality of your stream is excellent (almost Ethanesque).   

then the firefoxes started being assholes

Yeah, either they didn't receive the "Shape Up!" memo I sent, or they ignored it altogether.

[Shnypz]

LIT!  Thanks for the verification.

Yeah, had a shit start but was happy I didn't lose a man. I got lucky with free passes and no wild barrels to the face along the way. And yep, big confidence booster. The upside is now I'll be more relaxed marching towards 300k/L=9. Targeting 400k+ for the next sub. Hopefully 422k to break the Top 100.

Streaming Skills...I learned from the best

Congratulations on the milestone PB.  Clearing more than 30 boards on a single jumpman is all you need to get to level 22 (4 times, sequentially).  You can now officially look forward to achieving your primary goal with some more hard work

Thanks for your kind words with regards to the streaming setup gentlemen, I watched a lot of dean and phil (and vincent ) before I started playing and I guess I decided that the ideal camera angle would look as close to mame as possible.  It's really more about the position of the camera than anything else, being tangential to the screen is key  (however, I must digress and put forth a... )

Ethan did it independently and wasn't copycatting anyone, but I'm gonna have to claim myself as being the first DK streamer that had the straight-facing/non-angled arcade stream. 

Back in the day (early 2012 ) it was revolutionary!

My camera rig is pretty budget. MacGuyer'd it together with a tripod, piece of wood and rubber bands. I had it in a good spot for a while. Now that the kids are off for the summer, they've been playing more Kong so it gets moved around a lot. I need to spend 10 mins adjusting into the right spot before streaming. I usually try to tune it to the rivet level where the bottom girder is flat. It's still hard to get it perfect.

Had a really bad pace killing game of Donkey Kong tonight during one of my 1.1M attempts.

Sunday (06/29) gave us 2 big games:  Corey Chambers (1,049,600 KS) and Robbie Lakeman (1,131,500 L21-6).

Both scores have been verified, and the  Donkey Kong High Score List  has been modified.

Let's summarize these 2 updates.  What else am I going to do at this ridiculous hour?

Congratulations, guys!  I'll be adding both games to the DK Data Library, along with a few others.  The backlog of games on my "to do" list is getting quite large, but I'll get to all of them eventually.  The library updates will most likely bookend visits to the all-you-can-eat lunch buffet and the requisite late afternoon naps.

   New PB. I made two personal errors. I can KS if I can keep the personal errors down.

Hey Eric,

Congratulations on the new PB.  Solid score.

Is this an official High Score List submission?  If so, I'll need more than a screen capture.  Assuming the game was recorded, could you zip together the INP and WLF files, and attach the archive to your post?

[PaperTig3rs]

I just post my scores for fun
