It's time again for a new competition Smiley

I have been looking for a game like we had last time which was a lot of fun Smiley

I'll post the game tonight after work.  I am thinking that we end it Aug 1st, or is that too soon?

Suggestions for games are of course always welcome Smiley

Aug. 1st  sounds good by me.

Last time was a lot of fun, something similar would be great.

After playing through what must be 20 games, i finally found something that should be quite fun in the same spirit as the last game.

http://www.candystand.com/play/target-bowling

It's a simple arcade mini-game where you get 9 balls. Use your mouse to hurl the ball towards the points.  There are instructions below the flash game itself on the tab there.

You get awarded a lot of bonus points for sucessive hits etc.

I am extending the deadline another day since this post was late due to a massive thunderstorm that rolled through here this evening.

So the deadline is next Sunday Aug 2nd, midnight forum time Smiley  As for a prize Smiley We'll figure something out Smiley Last prize was a quite large portion of Norwegian chocolate Smiley

First try for me:

180 points. hehehe. Should be beaten by anyone that plays it i guess.

Happy Hunting!

Clifton is getting close Smiley
Elf is getting the hang of it too.

It's an irritating little game, perfect for the competition. My 415 seems to be a stroke of luck so far.

Hope Jette, Mystic, bookworm and Teal joins in too Smiley

whoa! Nice Elf. You'll be passing us by the next update.

The funny thing is that my last score there was achieved while Jette was in the room with me watching. I had 50 plays before that and the highest i achieved on them all was about 315.

So the only clue i've got is that you pay for a plane ticket and have Jette watch you while you play. That woman has a flash game aura around her 

But what i do is that i bounce the ball against one of the walls. Most of the time i get a 10, but once in a while i get a 100.

So the scores are so far:

1 - Jette - 650
2 - Mystic - 530
2 - H-kon - 530
4 - Clifton - 440
5 - Elf - 410

Lots of days still to get the #1 position Smiley
