Just wondering. > > -- Rick Wyatt A person named `LAW' consistently got scores in the 200,000 - 260,000 range at a fairly easy game in Toronto. He did this by playing with both men, in order to get the bonus time at the end of each screen (i.e., it required 3 quarters at a quarter a man, since the second man would run out of time and have to be started up again). Unfortnately, the game has since dissapeared from the arcade. J Kitamura/University of Toronto
