High score competition #150 : Thief

[kixfan]

That's it.   I'm done.   I should have been in bed 2 hours ago.  I was having hard time getting all the early points like you were getting.   After level 4 points are just 2 hard to get.   Posting my ever so slightly better score.   Good battle Hanoi   

73,840

Thanks Kix.  I think with more time, you would've got me.  I was starting to lose patience in the early rounds, trying too hard.

I guess the next competition is my pick?

I'm open to suggestions from anyone looking in.  Preferrably something that hasn't been previously selected, something that's fun, and something that doesn't require too, too much time in game play to attain a competitive score.  Oh, and something that doesn't suck ( a pbj requirement).

Feel free to post suggestions here publicly or PM privately.  Do it quick - Il'll look to started a new thread tonight or tomorrow.

Forgot to post my slightly improved score (not that it makes any difference) -- didn't have the time to get much practice in this week so not much improved.  31,640 was the best I could manage.

Jasonbar, please recount the totals.   When I count them I came up with 14.   And since we are fast approaching the end of the year, how are we handling the last competition?   Does it need to finish in 2014 or start in 2014?    Also, as a suggestion for next year, maybe we can take a page from Nascar and have a final made up of anyone who won or finished 2nd?   Maybe everyone gets to suggest a final game but for each win or 2nd place you get a certain number of votes.

Score totals will be for competitions that *finished* in 2014.

I redid the numbers (based on my thread's 2nd post, with the reported winners, which I checked against the reported winners at the top of the Thief thread):

Popsicle: 15
Kixfan: 14
HanoiBoi: 6
Comtek: 5
Edekoning: 5
Lettuce: 5
Big10p: 3
Jasonbar: 3
JDFan: 3
Spoot: 1

As for next year, the winner of 2014 decides what to do. All I know is that I'm too swamped to be involved in 2015.

Thanks,
