Some of us "regular players" never received round 1 cards...

I recieved the Space Paranoids card. I've been trying to post a scan of the card, but the page crashes when I try to add attachment.

My nickname was given by a friend of mine who watched basketball.
I'm just a hobbyist.

mach1monorail had posted two scans at the start of this thread, that was the basis of my assumption.

I joined up cause of the article in Empire magazine.

Which card did you get? And (Assuming you're not this Cherokee Parks) do you maintain a film or gaming blog?

I'm guessing they have another meet organised at Flynn's next week.

pps, maybe it refers to last years meet or it could be this years meet.


Already discussed, but yes, Flynn's Arcade returns this year.

But . it never came up as a score plus! any level!
It just happens quicker than you can see. It shows the multiplier times the number of disks picked up. You see 0000 but you miss the actual points counting down because it happened to fast. "Center Strike" works the same way.

To see what I mean start at level 1 again. Before moving either bike count the total disks on screen. There's 6. Finish the level. It should show "Disk Pickup 25x6: 0000". 25 is the multiplier and it climbs as you go up in levels. 6 is the total disks you picked up that level. The 0000 was actually 0150 (25x6) that was added on to your score.

Got it? Wink

Its 'disc pickup' . that never came up during all 32 of the rounds/levels. So there must be another thing to this game to get another 'unlock'.
Huh? Disc Pickup, is that another badge?

EDIT: Nevermind, I'm a fool. They're bonuses that get added to your points.

Ran the game twice now. that bonus never came up. wondering if we need to get the score that much higher? like in the recognizer game in space paranoids?
