RE: the curveball thread


Thought you curveballers might enjoy this:

(I just got sent it by email)


It requires that hand/eye co- ordination thing, which was never my strong suit. I'm much more of a Hexxagon type.

I got up to 101, has anyone else tried this ?

Stagger, have you given up on beating Doug at curveball ?

Whilst wating for Henman/Del Potro I hung around in the arcade for a while.


It was very empty in there.


No one seems to be trying anymore!


Sorry Niall but I've finally managed to get top score on Asteroids!

The problem is that I think we've pushed the boundaries for all the arcade games almost as far as they can go.

Later today, I'll post links to a whole load of new arcade games. I was wondering, should I post the links in here or what about setting up a separate section just for them ?

Also, I was thinking about merging the book club back into this section, good idea ?

How come on the plumber game, sometimes when you run it to an overflow pipe, you win the level and sometimes it's game over. How are you supposed to know which overflow pipe is the correct one??

I never go to the arcade anymore.  In fact I hardly ever play arcade games, the kids keep me busy etc.  The great thing about the arcade was that there were all these games that I had never played or that I had not played for years.  Others were playing so I played too.  I think if there were a bunch of new games added we'd all play again and maybe check out some of the older games.


One game I love, you can't steal it but it is a great game, is the Krazy Golf game on the Beeb Sport site.  I played that a ton in Sept and shot a round of 40.  My second best score was a 44 so the 40 was a shock.  Give that game a try, it is really good.

Now I am addicted to this game....
I've got a great serve and can hit aces straight through levels one and three. I also ace quite a few times between four and five. But can't get through level eight.
The closest I've come to is taking two lives off it. And I just can't stop playing this. I play at least thirty times a day either out here or on different other sites. I badly want to stop playing but can't.


Grr... I hate curveball... hate activeboard... hate life... hate everything...

Haha

I know exactly what you mean...during my exams in June I got addicted to curveball and tennis ace. I wasn't playing as much as 30 times a day though Maybe 20 times at most, I got to level 9 fairly regularly - my best was 34900 ish, just short of knocking one of Doug's scores off the top 10, was so annoyed that day. To beat L8, you just have to hang in their really, in the end you will get through.

Then someone mentioned that Wimbledon game and I got even more addicted to that aswell. Went on holiday and was suffering such bad withdrawal symptons I had to be rushed to counselling sessions @ CA [curveballers anonymous]

Yep, I'll feel terrible if I go out of my home for more than two days.

The right top corner of the opponent is its weakness. I'm trying to send huge swerving shots in that direction in level 8, but still can't crack it.


It would be good if there was a software that would let you practice the different levels separately.

My biggest obsession is ASTEROIDS.


I'm having a battle royale with Niall for the top spot.


Just went top after 2 weeks of trying since Niall last trumped me!


King of the Hill again!

It is funny....since I am now off work I have been playing a little again too.  I still can't get by level nine and it is killing me.  I know Stagger had a secret, I think he shared it with USM but no body wants to share it with me....I wish they would....I am a nice enough dude that I would help anyone else.....
