DK Score Submissions

[tudose]

I have updated the scores for Mitch and Phil. Looks like Phil has moved up on the front page. Nice work Phil. And Mitch, no I am not submitting 11,100 just because you got 11,000. I just keep forgetting about it.

Phil, if you wanted to highlight the game on Twitch I can add that link as well.

i think the stream cut out at one point so its not in 1 part. i wont be highlighting the game. im going to beat that score soon anyway

Thanks, Scott. I once had some really great grouping on 1-1 and got a lot of points and I calculated that I would have had over 13,000 if my blue smashes was favorable. With this inp you just saw, I had the blue smash luck that I needed but I was not very efficient in my grouping. If I can only get both at once....

I hit 290,200 after 7 levels for a pace of 1.073M with no grouping under kong levels 5 through 7. Though unfortunately the game began to unravel somewhere during level 8. Donkey Kong 1.073M Pace After Seven Levels 290,200

Score submission

1-1 Score of 10,100
Adam Mon (Drunkguy89)

Inp/wlf and twitch highlight included

Only post if you have spare time, theres no rush.

thanks.

Oh yeah I grabed a purse on the rivet stage adding 300 points making 10,400 so just deduct that, 10,100

Adam.

Corey, I just verified Adam's Level 1-1 score.

Nice job, Adam.  A 300 point re-jump of that 2 barrel combo prior to the top hammer grab, a 500 point smash of the fireball that got away, and 200 points for the pair of "bagels" (2 barrel jumps that yielded 0 points), and you could have gone over 11k.  Then again, a gameplay alteration of even 1 pixel changes how everything else plays out.

One suggestion:  on the rivet screen, if you want to kill off your remaining lives quickly, just run left, climb the 2 ladders, and walk off the edge of the platform.

Thanks Scott

yeah I got lucky with that wild barrel!
and thanks for the tip on the rivet stage, I never thought of that 

Cheers

Hey Corey, I've also verified Adam's latest submission of 510,800 (ending on Level 14-2).

Congratulations again, Adam.  With 2 personal bests in 2 hours, you've clearly had a more productive afternoon than me.  The last time I submitted a high score of any kind on this forum was . . . uhhh . . . never.

Also, nice job on your last man, passing 33 consecutive boards before the final conveyor death.

Lastly, I've attached some additional information, for your dining and dancing pleasure.

  Thanks again Scott, I appretciate it,
That damn lvl 14 Pie stage killed me again just like last time
I hope it does'nt become a habbit haha

Thank you

Adam.

Nice job, Adam. I know that you are in for a 600K breakthrough soon. Thanks for your help, Scott. I will update the recent scores this evening.

I will be creating a Start High Score List. I wanted to create an official verified list of what score people achieve after finishing level 4. I had created the no-hammer score because I really wanted to highlight Jeff Wolfe's accomplishment. Now I want to create this list because I want to highlight Phil's recent accomplishment. I will be adding phil's score to the 1-1 list as well, and really should add the other scores if I feel up to it. I do not believe that I will be creating any more lists after this start one.

Begin to submit your best Start scores in the same manner according to the submission rules. When I feel ambitious I can scan some of your INPs that I already have and add people to this list according to those starts. If you happen to have a video link or an inp of your best start then please post them in this thread. Thanks.

Hi all, I'd like to submit my first score. 456,200 by Graham Hawkins on August 5th, 2013. Big improvement over my previous of 316k a week before.
Misses at 186,400, 239,400, 438,600.

Score has also been submitted to MARP. Hopefully it's verifiable, if only so I can pursue a higher score in confidence. I've found my PC is too slow to play with Twitch streaming.  Thanks.

Hi, Jason Nugent (JNugent) here.  Just scored a new PB with 402,900.  I am submitting this score to the high score list for DK.  Inp and wlf attached.  Played in WolfMAME 106.  Streamed live on Twitch with acrjoey as a witness.  Warning, the twitch stream is a bit silly at times.  http://www.twitch.tv/jnugent74/c/2719661 
Also submitting to MARP.  Thanks, and take your time Corey.  I appreciate all you do for the DK community!

I have verified Graham Hawkins' submission of 456,200 (ending on L12-4), achieved on 08/05/13.

Welcome to the forum, Graham!

It was unfortunate you weren't awarded any points for that nifty barrel jump on Level 6-1, where you started to climb the center ladder on the 2nd girder, had to retreat, and then jumped between an oncoming rolling barrel and the barrel coming down the ladder.  It may have been lucky, but I prefer to think of it as pixel perfect execution.   

Additional game statistics are attached.

Congratulations on hurdling the 400k barrier, Jason!  I see that you've already updated the title of your next broadcast.  "Going for 500K on DK!" indeed.

Since I watched the INP playback of your game, and not the Twitch highlight, I have to ask:

Was "Several Species of Small Furry Animals Gathered Together in a Cave and Grooving with a Pict" playing during the stream at some point?  If so, I'm sorry I missed the live session.  Believe it or not, my copy of "Ummagumma" is still in factory sealed condition.   

What about the basic game stats?  Glad you asked.  They're attached.

[JNugent]

Ha!  Thanks Scott!  No Floyd this time around.  As a matter of fact, I listened to nothing but Tears for Fears this time around!  I appreciate the stats buddy!
