Greetings:
Fun. Sick, but fun. This reminds me that Spring Training is right around
the corner! :-) I intend to make it down to Arizona for a weekend of
preseason baseball, 'cause I'll be retired! Don't the pitchers & catchers
have to show up in like a week or so? I need to get on line and find out
about those package deals they have for this.
Play penguin! (er...or ball or something. )

About the 4th try I got 312.3, but it took my about 20 more
to get another over 300...

It took a lot of time, Jeff. Most of my attempts were in the 400's. I
used a different link to the same game, found on another group and was just
about to post the link here when I saw Ken had already posted his link.

Try for line drives with lots of skips.

I'm guessing they used a different version:

http://meph.eu.org/

You'll get MUCH higher scores

I had seen this on another web based board while doing some research,
someone had posted his score of 927 (actually posted the page showing the
score), I figured why even try

I guess it depends on which site one stumbled across first.

try the one on ken's link... line drive skips don't go as far as the
ones hit high & just short of sticking the nose.

Maybe one in meters, the other in God's own feet??

I got it figured out. Things happen on a mouse RELEASE, not a click!. You
can time it better if you click right after you drop the penguin, then
release the mouse when you sense the bird around the snowmans nose. I
think I can send 3/5 out past 300.

OK,using http://home.tele2.fr/kcv/pinguin.swf
319.1
is the best out of 20 tries. Certainly a minor league performance compared
to http://badger.ing.me.uk/~ahmulh/pinguin.swf .
Wouldn't want to unlevel the playing field or appear supernatural.

Wow. 567 on my first hit on that one. I'd not done much to be proud
of but a 300 on the first one.
