Alright, here's a crappy score for starters. I take back what I was saying about the other games being more of a challenge! Having not actually played a Leaderboard game for quite some time, I've discovered I've turned into a snap moron! I'm hooking and slicing like an idiot. It's still great fun though.
So, my first score is 74, or +2 in golfing parlance.

54?? Do you do nothing but play Leaderboard all day??
I can remember getting scores like that back in the 80s, but I haven't played for ages, it'll take me a long, long time before I'm near that level again.
Congrats, by the way! _________________ |

My first "serious" attempt:

I'd definitely rather be playing a game with trees in it.
Anyway, I made a small improvement. Again, hole 9 really screwed my score up, but I was getting it together somewhat until my disappointing 18th hole spoiled my recovery, and I ended up with 69, or -3.

Another improvement, this time to 67, or -5. Hole 9 is a bastard to me!!

I was getting close to a perfect* score of 49 this time, but then I missed two putts at holes 15 and 17, damn...
*In order to go below 49, you need to get very lucky and hole a long distance shot. _________________ To visit c64animation.com, go to www.abc64.de! Hosting trouble... |

I have played Leaderboard a lot in my days but only at amateur level. It is a difficult game to master, especially for all you who play the game for the first time and move on directly to pro level instead of beginning on novice!! I recommend all who never played the game before to go some round on novice before moving on to amateur or pro.
My score in my first round was 79 (+7). But I think I can improve to 70 - 72.
Blabgorius score is one of the most impressing scores I have seen in the compos so far!! |

Ok, that's my score. I thought it was good, but I see there are much better scores. Anyway I hope 59 is a good one

I seem to suck at this game too.
-edit- Improved a little.
-edit 2- A vastly improved score! _________________ Emulation is the sincerest form of flattery.

Well, I ended up with an amazing score of +9...after the first hole!
This is seriously hard! I remember playing Leaderboard with my dad (only game my dad would play!), but I don't remember it being this hard. We probably played at the lower difficulty settings. |
