Damnit,  I can't get past 19 seconds! The borders screw me up!  (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v693/lordthundergod/eusa_doh.gif)  Practice...I must.

Maybe I'm just good at evading geometric objects<g>...41.56 seconds on my second shot.

Fun game...

19.8 on my first try - according to them that's beyond brilliant - so I quit right there.  I'd be crushed if I slipped up and was sub-brilliant on a future attempt!   :D

I got 18.something

I gave up, I don't have the patience...

No matter what a silly game says, we all recognize your brilliance.  ::)

I have to admit, I got addicted to this game for about 45 minutes. Using my trusty trackball (thumb-nav), I have a top time of 2:37.85. My thumb is in dire need of a cortisone shot.

The trackball helps big-time here...I can't even imagine trying to do this with a conventional mouse.

That is kind of addicting. I got to 25 seconds played a couple more times then quit because I have other things I want to do. I will be returning to that challange later!!!!!

Another challenging thing is the quickest time / worst time.  Try to intentionally hit a box or border as fast as possible.

My best time in that: .031 Seconds

You survived 0 seconds!!!!!
That was so fast it did not even register. I just grabed the block and threw it over to the right wall!!!!!

You survived 0.093 seconds!!!!!
That was the fastest I could get aiming for a block!!!!!

Too much fun this damn game!!!!!  ;D

There is a pattern to this.  There is a sequence of where to put your box (and keep it there for some seconds before moving it).  Before long it should be possible to infinitely last in this.

I don't know about infinitely, because my thumb just gets tired after several minutes, once it reaches full speed, but I can pretty much do this for 2 minutes or more on every attempt now. You are right though, Joe...there is a pattern, and basically it involves (after immediately moving to mid-right wall at start)...arc to upper LH corner, let them pass, arc back to center, let them pass, arc to bottom left corner, let them pass, arc back to center, let them pass, etc...You go counter clockwise arcing to the corners and reversing the arc back to center. Once speed gets going, it's just a matter of how fast you can run your pointer in that pattern without hitting a box or a wall.

P.S. How is that Giants pick for the mock coming? I wanted to thank you for taking the time and putting this much thought into it.  ;)
