Kongratulations, Jon!  Huge accomplishment, and well deserved.

I haven't yet watched, but the "Wow!" factor is off the charts.  In fact, the charts required to adequately document this historic achievement have never been built.  Would somebody please get to work on that?

Wow, that's awesome! Now people have to start point pressing no hammer. Probably the best place to start point pressing would be the spring stages, and basically trying to get a 7k average or so on those. After that, barrel grouping seems like the next thing to add, which is obviously going to add a lot of time and risk to the game. It would be interesting to see a breakdown of all the level averages in this game.

I hope someone makes a no hammer killscreen badge!

I'm on it, Jeff.  Most likely later this evening.

It's funny, just yesterday I was saying, "I should just bear down and play no-hammer until I get the first KS, it's just a numbers game, put in enough games and it will come", and then the very next day, bam!

It's totally appropriate that it was Jon. It was right for it to be him, Estel, or Jeff.

And now I don't have to put myself through that grind!  ;D

In the summer that you came
There was something eating everyone
And the sunshine fund was low
We couldn't greet you with a simple hello

Jon's historic NH killscreen game has been added to the DK Data Library.

It's located 50 feet inside the north entrance to the newly renovated Mckinnell Wing, in case you get lost.   ;)
