Just for all the users in here who mostly post on the forum during the day at work, when ur bored (like me!), i've created an arcade area with a couple of games. I have other games, but dont want to add them all at the same time.
Hi scores are logged, so get competing! heh :lol:

Link is on the portal and up in the top nav.

Mahjongg - you have to match up the tiles - but you cant match up a tile that has more than 2 side touching another. You'll suss it :)

Bubbles is my favorite.... cant stop playing it lol

As for snake... that works, you've just got to know the keys. I think it tells you in the game somewhere when you first open it up.

:roll: And at first you didn'r believe me!!

Would I lie?

Dan

30-08-2003, 11:48 AM

Well i wasted over an hour thismorning trying to beat you, but i cannot for the life of me get past the level where you are stuck in the corner, and your turning circle is like 24 damm degrees!! :x :x :x

So ive given up... until later :)

Tark

30-08-2003, 01:36 PM

One clue for bubbles.

Angle of incidence = angle of reflection

I also matched yout top score of the pair matching game but your name is still top!!

I spent hours on tetris last night. It wasn't until level 11 that i started to loose it! Thats really fast! :lol:

All good fun!

Still cant get snake to work though!?

Dan

30-08-2003, 05:48 PM

Yeah, mahjongg is gonna be the only game where im going to have to reset the high scores every week.
There is only one level, and providing you complete the whole board within the time limit, you get the same score..... what it should do is give you a time bonus or something.. cos the way it is at the moment, anyone who completes it gets the same score :roll:

As for bubble... GRRRR :x i will defeat you!

Tark

30-08-2003, 09:09 PM

hahaha. I got past it a few times today! the next level is even worse!! As you would expect really! :lol:

Goodluck

And My tetris will always remain! I only lost the plot cos you cant pause it and my phone rang!! :evil:

Spider

31-08-2003, 04:51 AM

Tark

31-08-2003, 10:48 AM

I might try and get snake working on my PC today.

I just got Smoked on Tetris by my Bird!!! I thikn she cheated cos its just too fast when you get up to level 11! :cry:

And as for bubbles. Come on Dan where are ya. I beat my own top score again last nihgt! I need some competition! :lol:

Tark

31-08-2003, 04:48 PM

Hey Dan. A bit of help please. I downloaded that Java thing that you sent me a link to and now I have Java Web Start. What does this program do and snake still doesn't work for me.

Dan

31-08-2003, 07:35 PM

I dont know why its not working for you mate... ive tried it on a few machines at work, and other users on the forum seem to be able to play it ok... wierd :?

Tark

31-08-2003, 09:33 PM

Never Mind. Do you know what I downloaded then and what it is for??

And I have just realised why my bird (Bobbylock) kicked my ass at Tetris. The more stuff you have running on the internet the slower the pieces fall.

If your not on anything else it is fine. But if you have a few downloads going it slows down a little. Plus she Bird only has 33K connection!!

Well thats my excuse why she whipped me!! :roll:

Dan

01-09-2003, 08:13 AM

heh.

That download was a Java update for your machine, providing you downloaded the right one lol.

Tark

01-09-2003, 11:04 AM

I just clicked the Download button in the top right corner like you said!! I have no idea what i have got!! :roll:

Dan

01-09-2003, 11:12 AM

yeah, thats just an update to Sun JAVA on your macine - no harm in it being there.

Tark

01-09-2003, 02:56 PM

LOL LOL LMFAO PMSL ROFPMSL

I was using the wrong keys the whole time!

Snake does Work!

:oops: :roll: :oops: :roll: :oops: :roll: :oops: :roll:

Dan

01-09-2003, 08:49 PM

Tark

This Means WAR!!

Dan

02-09-2003, 05:02 PM

I warn you now, that games gets stooopidly fast! :shock: :shock:

Tark

03-09-2003, 06:54 AM

I got within a couple of 100 of you the other day. I will have you today. I have got a lot of time on my hands to beat it!

I beat my bird at Tetris and then she beat me again! God dam that thing gets fast!! :roll:

Dan

03-09-2003, 10:24 AM

Well i had another go at Snake last night, and beat my own score again hehehe

UNDEFEATED muwawawa hehe :lol: :lol:

Tark

03-09-2003, 03:51 PM

I noticed!!

My moon Buggy score is WAY above everyone elses!!

Dan

03-09-2003, 09:59 PM

awww man lol - ur score was only 50 away from my high score heh

sooo close!

Tark

04-09-2003, 05:07 PM

I know. One more number and i would have had you! I loos it when it goes from level 11 (very fast as it is!!) to level 12 and i dont turn quick enough!

I take it thats what you did but just got 50 points more than me in the process??

I will keep practising! I loos my head after a bit and end up crashing at about 100 points!! :roll:

Dan

04-09-2003, 08:16 PM

I just beat my high score again lol.... RAHHHHH!

It gets so fast past 8050... thats what you have to watch out for. When ur on like 7500 odd, watch your score closely, cos as soon as you hit 8050... weeheey... goes mental.

After that, i just ... no, not giving my tecnique away heh :lol:

Check out the high score list lol... just us 2 from the middle upwards heh.
Anyone else gonna challenge us?
