I have, in the past few months, become addicted to the seemingly
ancient game of Gyruss.  I seem to have become pretty good, I can
usually triple or quadruple the high score on any given machine 
here in the Lexington area.  My question is, what are some of the 
high scores in other places...I'm just curious to know what some
other people are scoring...or if anyone else even plays the game.
My high score is 701,400...stage 58 (playing time 75 minutes).
The only other score here that I haven't done that comes close
is app. 375,000.  If anyone knows of a score higher or close to
mine...please reply...I'm anxious to know.

Thanks in advance,

Keith Hatfull

These games are *not* Galaga clones.  They are all Galaxian clones.
